Hearts & Iron
Hearts & Iron is a comic book (readers call them graphic novels) about two "men's men" (which, it could be assumed, is why men would be attracted to them).
Here is the writer's synopsis of the comic from Jeff Jacklin's website:
"This is the story of Carl Hanson and John Sullivan, two iron-pumping gay men who begin a life-journey together. As competitive athletes who don't live in a major urban center or in a gay ghetto, Carl and John may challenge ideas of what gay people are like, as will the presence of gay punk / alternative characters. Their path will take them into scuffles in which they turn the tables on gay bashers, and into competition in the Highland games, and in other timelines where they compete int he ancient Olympics."

Straight Guy on a Gay Team
towleroad.com posted a link to a photo essay done by the New York Times. The subject talks about how he joined the Gotham Knights [gay rugby team] to get closer to his gay brother.
Very cool and very endearing. If only we could convince the men we love to do the same. How romantic that would be, until you take his shoulder to your face.

Japanese Flexology
We hit the twitter this morning and were led to out.com's popnography(.com) page.
If you're not familiar with Japanese TV or pop culture, you may not be aware that sometime it feels as though there's a joke no else in the world is in on. Moving on, there is a new game for the Nintendo wii and we can't quite figure out what it is, but it involves muscular men and and perhaps a polar bear and a scary asian (man/)woman(?). There is a lot of running around, posing and flexing.
Wait a sec, it could be a circuit party!
You be the judge.

Skate Canada wants to butch up men's figure skating
ABCNEWS.com reports that Skate Canada (Canada's figure skating organization) wants to showcase the masculinity involved in figure skating. While many of us may be very well aware of the strength, training and endurance that goes into anything artistic (i.e., ballet), we must also realize that many times, it involves portraying masculinity in an "unconventional" way.
If anything, Skate Canada should focus more on changes people's opinions about what is masculine and what kind of training and pain goes into competing at that level.

Gay Pop Culture Icon
Today Buddy (our editor), came running to an other staff members desk and told him, "Oh my God, you HAVE to take the What Kind of Gay Are You? quiz on facebook!"
After waiting for Buddy to finish and post it, said staff member proceeded to take the test. He was just answering quiz questions until he made it to question number eight (could be wrong). One of the options for an answer was "Sports Out Loud!" (Sports Out Loud is our old name). It was so exciting to see that we've receive our gay pop culture status.
Because you know you've made it when the publication you work for pops up in a facebook quiz.
