I fell in love this weekend. He was kind, considerate…unflinching in his affection for me.  He cradled me deeply when we went to sleep at night, and affectionately held my hand while walking down the street. We’ve flirted in the past…at least the last ten years or so, but I’ve always been resistant to his [...]

Just a reminder to tune on Monday for the big reveal.
You remember that whole, “Oh-Derrick-got-caught-whacking-off-at-the-stadium-during-a-baseball-game thing?” (If you don’t, you can read all about it here.)
It was funny, it was sad, it was embarrassing, it was mortifying, and it was a long time ago, thank the heavens.
But keep that in mind…something fun for the whole [...]

In light of my historic revelation to my dear old dad tomorrow (and partly because I need to lighten the mood with writing about all of this), today’s post includes five things that I’m absolutely NOT telling him. Don’t you think coming out is enough? Here goes!

I made out with a guy (actually we did [...]

I’m exhausted. Honestly. I’m so freaking tired, I can’t stand it. This week has been a doozy. Knowing that in 48 hours, I’m gonna sit Daddio down and tell him, what’s been on my mind and in my heart for 35 years really takes an emotional toll. I’m looking forward to getting this out and [...]

I used to be a bit of a prude– complete puritan, a friend said.  He was probably right. But I seem to have gone through a bit of a transformation the last eighteen months or so.  I got my head screwed on straight. I came out of my shell. I’d been in a depression for [...]

I’ve talked to my father a couple times in the last two weeks or so, and I’ve reconciled it within myself that when I head down to San Diego next week, I’m gonna kick that closet door right down. Well, maybe not kick it down, per se, but let him know about what side of [...]

I caught a little flack from people in my list of 7 random people I’d bang around with so I thought I’d add another seven to flesh out my tastes to the general public. I can’t believe the numbers I’m getting for my site. You’d be surprised at what I get in my Google Analytics [...]

On the blog phenomenon that is 7 song meme, I’d thought I’d up the ante with 7 people I’d get down with. Now, I realize these people are straight, but you can’t knock a dude for just speaking his mind. I’m not saying full blown ankle grabbing action (well, maybe), but I’m most certainly down [...]

So here we go. I started this site because I always felt like people were a bit uptight as it relates to sex and whatnot and if people just were a bit more honest with themselves, then it would open up a lot of things with people, their partners, and their respective sex lives. And [...]

As interactive as I’d like this site to become, I’ve been thinking about why in the hell I might be qualified to engage in a discussion about sex and relationships, especially since I’ve rarely done relationships, and also because I’m not straight. Well, I’d like to think that as a gay man, that fact helps [...]
