It's a Jock Thing

Playing sports means always being around guys who stink, and guys who have Bodies by Sport (as opposed to body by gym membership).

Growing up, my world was populated with two kinds of men: those with Bodies by Sport, and everybody else.

It was a world where a man isn't a man unless he's drenched in sweat from a hard game of basketball, football or baseball.

Is it any wonder I was a jock crazy young jock?

Or am I just dreaming?

A man fall in love with me, regardless of my HIV status, because I'm such a great, complete, wonderful, loving, intelligent, amazing man, regardless of my HIV status?

I believe it's a love story waiting to happen. Or am I just dreaming?

Don't drop the soap!

Why are some hetero-identified guys so scared of being naked in the same space as men who admit to being cocksuckers and butt-fuckers? Or butt-fuckees?

Because they're scared they're gonna get raped by the butt-fuckers?

Because they're scared their raging hard-on's will be seized upon by the cocksuckers?

Is there space for all that sexual tension? Does there have to be sexual tension?

Find out why it's all in the head in Gay Guys in the Locker Room, now on my author blog.

I never said I didn't want pussy

Was I born straight or gay? No.

Now that I'm all grown up, I realize: I'm no longer a homo, just a guy who enjoys the company of men, who wants to bond with a special buddy, emotionally and physically, and who is open to but has yet to experience sex with women.

I never said I didn't want pussy!

So how did I end up calling myself gay? Journey back in time and see how I became homosexual.

I will find true love with the man of my dreams.

I will find true love with the man of my dreams.

I will find true love with the man of my dreams.

I will find true love with the man of my dreams. I hope.

Aids for Fear of AIDS


Does a disease-free lab result mean a disease-free mind?

Did you know an HIV-negative person can be intimate with an HIV-positive person and stay HIV-negative?

I don't let HIV/AIDS get in the way of me loving myself; why should you be any different?

Still Jock Crazy After All These Years


My ideal man is a man who doesn't feel gay or straight. A man who gets turned on by the idea of us having a three-way with a woman. A man who loves the smell of his jock. And mine!

It wasn't difficult getting hooked on the scent of a man and his jock. For most of my early life, the only kind of men I knew wore sweaty jocks.

Is it any wonder, after all these years, I'm still Jock Crazy?

The Blown Job

I had just sat down in front of the tube, plate of juicy burgers in one hand, remote in the other ... when there was a knock on the door.

The solicitor was too gorgeous to simply dismiss. I think it was the eyes, hopeful and radiant. He was a young white man in his early twenties with a body by sports. He lit up when he saw me. I lit up when I saw him light up at the sight of me. ... Click here to read more of the Blown Job.

Fall in Love with a Funky Black Poz Jock?

I used to believe: white was better than black, straight was better than gay, negative was better than positive, and everybody else in the world was better than me because I was a black gay man living with HIV/AIDS.

Then, a funny thing happened on the way to my sad, lonely, worth-less life. I woke up from a very bad dream, a dream that said I had to accept anyone else's point of view about black gay men living with HIV/AIDS.

I begat a new dream, a dream where I learned to love myself for all that I am, for where I've been, what I've overcome, what I've made of myself and my life.

In this new dream, I fell in love. With myself. That's right, I fell in love with a funky, black, poz jock. I also realized: if it happened to me, if could happen to the man of my dreams, too. After all, anything is possible.

Anyone in this world can fall in love with a funky, black, poz jock.

Stalled Sexuality

When US Senator Larry Craig was arrested for trying to have sex in a Minneapolis airport bathroom, the world assumed the distinguished gentleman was lying when he declared, "I'm not gay!"

I believe him.

The world is full of men who neither call themselves gay, nor view themselves as gay but still have sex with men.

A Queer? Who Me?

I couldn't possibly be gay. Could I?

Why This Blog?

Why this funky little blog? Because another generation of young men are ashamed of their HIV-positive status and they need to know: you can still be healthy, happy, sexy, proud and poz.

Because nowhere else in the media is someone like me portrayed as happy, healthy, sexy, proud and poz.

Because when I'm much, much, much older, fate willing, I can look back at my funky little blog and see how I was once a happy, horny, male sexual dawg.

Owning It

I used to get so upset when someone called me faggot or nigger. That was before I trained my brain not to care about what others call me.

Faggot and nigger are powerless and without inherent meaning. They're just words, utterances by apes who've learned how to talk.

I'm a cocksucker, a fag, a faggot and a nigger, and none of those words has any power over me or my life. I'm proud of who I am: an educated man with a great mind and the ability to create magnificent dreams.

Who cares what people call me? Not this cock-sucking nigger faggot.

I love my HIV-positive tongue! My tongue gives me so much pleasure and joy, allowing me to taste and savor so many wonderful flavors.

My tongue is one of my favorite appendages.

Someday, I hope to have a buddy who says my tongue is one of his favorite appendages, so much so that he says it's the world's greatest tongue.

Get the Funk in Ma Face

Why do I blog on this funky lil' blog?


To be a man who's changing the face of AIDS.

To teach the young and the poz how to be sexy, confident, comfortable, poz.

To vent my anger about the gay world, where there's so many men, so little sensitivity.

To tell the world, I'm not gay, just jock crazy.

That's why I blog on this funky little blog.

BBC: Big Black Cognition

Sometimes I think with my bigger head, like when I write for my Sapien Homo column on my author blog.

Why, I can even dream of men and still not think with my little head, like when I write my column, Jockin': Homos in Sports on my author blog.

Still I admit: I'm a male sexual dawg. But I'm also a dog owner, which you can find out about in my author blog column, When In Doubt, Pet the Dog.

Who knew my big head could be so useful, too!

I just want to be loved.

I just want to be loved.

I just want to be needed.

I just want to be held.

I just want to be loved.

Who Loves Me

Where else do I feel beautiful while sleeping alone night after night?

How else do I see myself as sexy, if I don't see myself as sexy?

Who else will show the world I'm lovable, if I don't show the world I'm lovable?

Where else will I be portrayed as cute, funny, sexy and romantic, if I don't upload photos of myself on my own blog?

Who else will love me, if I don't love myself?

The Sex Remains the Same

You’d think hooking up would be easier in the Internet age.

In the past, you had to leave your house to hunt for a suitable mate, meaning it could take hours, even longer, to find whatever gets you through the night.

Nowadays, you don’t have to leave your house, but hunting for a suitable mate still takes work: answering all those detailed questions by a stranger who may or may not be telling the truth, meaning it could take hours, even longer, to find whatever gets you through the night.

Sex. The more life changes, the more sex remains the same.

Ass I Wish

I wish I had a great ass, but I don't.

I wish most men wanted to play with it, but they won't.

I've just got an ass, same as any human.

No one's gonna write songs about my ass.

No one's gonna ask to photograph my ass for a magazine.

No one's gonna tell me I've got the best ass they've ever seen, felt, tasted, loved.

Still I wish somebody loved by ass.

Even if that somebody was somebody other than me.

Monster Bash

I am not a monster. I just play one in your imagination.

You know, the guy you automatically dismiss as a potential love or sex partner because he's living with the AIDS virus.

Who could love a man who wasn't disease-free?

Why, that would take a soul who's brave enough to conquer his fears, educated himself about safer sex, open his mind up to unbridled passion with a man. Who happens to be living with HIV/AIDS.

I am not a monster. I just play one in your imagination.

Why Am I Still Single?

Fifty-year-old gay man who's never been in a relationship. That's what I'll be in six months, unless I'm no longer living, or living a dream come true, a dream I've dreamt since age fourteen, a dream I have slim hope of ever coming true.

Love. A relationship. A partner. A buddy.

Call it what you want, I've never had it. Not even close.

Why am I single? It's a question I've been asking myself for years, including the time I wrote a blog post with a few speculative answers, a blog post called, Why Am I Single?

Best of all, I blog about my deepest dream: finding Somebody to Love Me and My HIV.

That Boy

Who I can't stop thinking about.

Who's always there when I need him.

Who laughs at my jokes.

Whose eyes light up my soul.

Who cares about me. Whom I care about.

Who makes me believe in the impossible.

Who makes me believe love conquers all.

Someday, I'm gonna be that boy.

Someday, that boy is going to be loved beyond his wildest dreams.
