Hump Day & Chill

I'm Sailing Away...
Gene Carter

When I was a young impressionable gay boy I remember being fascinated, no make that fixated on Playgirl Magazine. For the uninitiated Playgirl was a magazine featuring articles like Playboy, but unlike Playboy the nude photo spreads were of men, not women, showing the Full Monty.

I used to wonder about the guys who posed for those spreads. Who they really were and how they felt about the whole thing. Much to my delight while surfing Tye Briggs Favorite Hunks & Other Things I came across quite a few follow-up interviews with former Playgirl models who have bared it all for the world to enjoy.

One interview in particular caught my interest, I think it had a lot to do with the model being straight as many models for Playgirl were gay men. It is from a layout done in 1975 with a then nineteen year old Gene Carter.

Gene did the chat with Tye in January of 2011 - it is a fascinating piece on a man in his 50's looking back on getting naked for an international magazine.
