Pleasure Is A Radical Act
Michael Shinafelt

Pleasure is a radical act. Let that sink in. In these off kilter times why is it we feel bad about making ourselves feel good?

We not only do ourselves a disservice by not doing so, we do those and the world around us dirty as well. The energy we put out into the world matters. Pleasure should not be a radical act, yet it is. Moving forward with pleasure...

Remember everything is peachy keen. Peachy F#cking keen!!!

Admit it. At least one time in your life you seriously tried to move an object using the force

Show of hands who thought Sutton's "incident" on RHOBH last  night was 100% staged? ✋

Also about last night. Who thinks Kyle is skirting how involved she is with Morgan Wade? ✋

Stop fighting your demons and start working with them, damn it!

I'm a toy, come and play with me, say the word now, the more you know...

Hump Day & Chill

Barbie & Just Ken
Margot Robbie & Ryan Gosling

Today I'm going Basic B!tch and we are going to Hump Day & Chill to what was arguably the best moment of this past Sunday's Oscar telecast. "Yes" it's Ryan Gosling proving he's Kenenough performing his rousing, audience pleasing, Rock version of I'm Just Ken from the movie Barbie!

PS I especially loved the Ken's homage to Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend by Marilyn Monroe from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.

Now Hump Day & Chill and hit it after the jump Minions!

Current Mood

I'll Have What She's Licking
Sharon Stone

I don't know what she's licking, but this photo of the one and only Sharon Stone is feeding into my vibe today. Thus this is what my Current Mood feels like today.

Now to say exactly what this means in terms of me is fair I am guessing. This being stated I believe it can be everyone's CM as you can get your own personal read from it.

To me there is a sense of rebellion and a F#ck You attitude that only Ms. Stone can uniquely capture.

Sharon recently celebrated her 66th Birthday this past Sunday and shows no signs of slowing her roll. Yet another thing about this image that inspires my CM. 

Today I'm going to bend it like Sharon Stone in this photo. "Yes" internalize it and the energy shall manifest Minions!

Emma Stone!

Kudos!
Emma Stone

OK, who says the Oscars are predictable (for the most part they are) didn't have John Cena presenting Best Costume Design naked on their Bingo Card.

They also more than likely didn't have the truly deserving Emma Stone walking off with Best Actress for Poor Things on it either, so there!

Let's face facts, we all thought Oscar was going to make history and give the gold to Lily Gladstone as the first Native American Woman to be nominated for one in Killlers of the Flower Moon.

TBH (I may catch some flack for not being PC here) she did not deserve it. While her work was nomination worthy it was nowhere near the level of what Ms. Stone did with her one of a kind creation of Bella Baxter.

Surprising as it may be who deserved to win in this category actually did win much to the shock and awe of the Oscar and viewing audience.

Anyway it's Monday and aren't you happy?!

Manatomy Awards Time!

 The 10^th Annual Manatomy Awards

Jake Gyllenhaal Wins Lifetime Achievement Award

In celebration of this weekend’s Academy Awards, Mr. Man proudly presents the Manatomy Awards: the only award ceremony to recognize the past year’s naked male achievements in film and TV. Often referred to as the nude Oscars, the big winners at this year's Manatomy Awards include Saltburn star Barry Keoghan who wins “Best Full Frontal” and out actor Jonathan Bailey who takes home two awards for his revealing scenes in Fellow Travelers.  “Best Picture” is awarded to the gay erotic drama Passages starring Ben Whishaw and Franz Rogowski, and Jake Gyllenhaal wins the coveted “Lifetime Achievement Award” for his numerous nude roles over the past two decades.  He follows last year’s winner, Antonio Banderas.

 

“Male nudity in film and television has come a long way since our first Manatomy Awards back in 2014,” said Mr. Man Managing Editor Steven Attanasie. “The sheer number of male nude scenes affords us the opportunity to create more categories and celebrate the depth and breadth of celebrities going naked every year.”

 

Streaming titles once again dominate this year’s Manatomy Awards.  Paramount Plus wins the “Best TV Show” award for Fellow Travelers.  Netflix wins the “Best Gay Scene” award for Elite.  The gay streamer Dekkoo wins the “Best Nudecomer” category for its series Patterns that featured a shower scene with breakout actor Jack Armstrong.    Hulu and Amazon Prime share the “Most Bootylicious Year” prize.  It is awarded to Jon Hamm for his two back baring scenes in 2023: one in Amazon Prime’s Good Omens and the other in Hulu’s Fargo.

 

This year’s list is more diverse than ever before.  South Korean actor Steven Yeun wins “Best Nude Debut” for his scene in Netflix’s award season-favorite Beef.  Latino actors Felipe Londoño, Mauricio Hénao, and Julián Cerati win recognition for their erotic make-out scene in Fake Profile and the Chinese-American trans actor and activist Leo Sheng is honored for his nudity in The L Word: Generation Q.

 

Several men over 50 take home awards this year, including C. Thomas Howell in Obliterated and Rob Lowe in Unstable, who won a joint award honoring The Outsiders co-stars for both going nude last year.  For the third year in a row, Murray Bartlett is honored with a Manatomy Award.  In 2022, he was awarded “Best Gay Scene” for The White Lotus.  In 2023, he won for his graphic romp in bed with Andrew Rannells in Welcome to Chippendales.  This year he wins for his intimate scene with Nick Offerman in The Last of Us.

Be Nasty Day

Janet Jackson

"Be Nasty Day is celebrated every year on March 8. A fun, light-hearted holiday, this day isn’t meant to be taken seriously at all. Be Nasty Day is a great tongue-in-cheek way to celebrate being a little less polite." 

"My last name is control
No, my first name ain't baby
It's Janet, Miss Jackson if you're nasty" - Nasty, Janet Jackson
