  • FILM REVIEW: From Beginning To End

    There is good taste, and then there is incest.

    It’s surprising that we can sit and watch a lot of suspect and even deviant behaviour amongst (consenting) adults on the silver screen, but this is one topic that we feel is just a tad too icky even for us. Especially when it comes in the form of a melodramatic Brazilian telenova that is short on both substance as well as clothing, and is to all intents and purpose nothing more than a pretty piece of soft porn.

    It starts with two young half brothers, one 6 years old and the other 12, who are a little too close to each other for our comfort zone, and for their mother too who suspects there may be more here than what meets the eye. Flash-forward to the boys as grown men, one of the fathers dies, then the mother passes away too, and the boys seek solace in each other. Well that’s their excuse as they have barely stopped lusting after each other since they were kids.

    We are convinced that it’s not just lust, but real love, which is put to the test when the younger brother who is a potential Olympic swimming champion is told by his coach that he must move abroad to train. To Russia no less. Oh come on coach, you mean to tell us there are no decent swimming pools closer to Brazil?

    Love conquers all though and even a very pretty girl cannot steal the old brother away from his one true love, and this all plays out to a rather deafening over-laden heavy strings soundtrack. And we guess they will happily ever after? Who knows? More importantly, who cares?

    Why see it at all? Well the boys/men are rather stunning beefcakes that even with this limited script prove that they can actually act, and also writhe around naked together looking very sexy but without doing the act (it’s soft porn after all). It was a big box office hit in Brazil when it was released in 2009, and it has now surfaced on Amazon where you can waste £4.49 and more importantly 90 minutes of your time.

     

  • This Morning Toying With Semen Facial Segment

    Yep, this is how Morning Television rolls in the United Kingdom. From Jeremy Kyle to semen facials.

    TV execs have confirmed that they’re not oppose to featuring a semen facial on a programme coming soon. ITV’s flagship morning programme hasn’t shied away from controversial segments, having shown a live testicular cancer screening and a live rectum examination, both served as an important public service message to men and their partners, however This Morning also devoted a morning to bondage for beginners on the pre pre pre watershed show. The bondage programme ended up garnering 120 official complaints.

    According to sources, the experimental semen on face test will take place with a woman using a sample from her partner and although no date has been confirmed, it is thought that the programme could air sooner rather than later. They told The Sun:

    “The team speak with a huge number of possible contributors each day.”

    Some experts claim that a man’s ejaculate contains essential ageing properties such as proteins, zinc, magnesium, calcium, potassium and fructose, all that could cause a nourishing effect. It also contains Spermine, which ScienceDirect.com identifies “as a potent antioxidant and an anti-inflammatory agent” and “an important antioxidant of epidermis (skin).

    So is it time to get all bukkake on each other?

  • Tories Have The Most Out Candidates At 2015 Election

    LGBTory, the Conservative Party LGBT group, is proud to announce that at next month’s general election the Conservatives will be fielding 37 out candidates in constituencies up and down the country.

    This will be the highest number of out candidates selected by any party. Based on figures by Professor Andrew Reynolds of the University of North Carolina, Tories led the way with openly LGBT candidates at 37, against the Lib Dems and Labour’s 35 out candidates. Green has 23 and UKIP has 5.

    LGBTory Chairman Colm Howard-Lloyd said:

    “This impressive number of candidates builds on the Conservative Party’s record of having more out MPs than the other major parties put together.

    “We are pleased to have 12 out former MPs re-standing as well as to have selected gay candidates in winnable seats such as Bath, Blackpool South and North East Derbyshire.

    “The Conservative-led government’s achievements on LGBT rights have been transformational with same-sex couples in England and Wales being able to marry from March last year.

    “We have also seen £2 million distributed to tackle homophobic, biphobic and transphobic bullying in schools, as well as the law, changed to allow gay men to apply for convictions for consensual gay sex to be disregarded. There is a pledge in the Conservative Party’s election manifesto to issue a pardon for historical gay sex convictions if elected in May.”

    Out candidates have been selected in every region of Great Britain. LGBTory patron Ruth Davidson MSP is also leading the Conservatives’ campaign in Scotland.

    Below is a list of out Conservative candidates along with details of the constituency in which they are standing:

    Here’s what a select few said:

    Daniel Taylor

    I met my bf on grindr and still together 2 yrs later

    James Gerrie

    Met mine online, chatted for 3 months then met in real life. 6 months later moved 450 miles from my home to the city to where I am now and that was over 3-years-ago but realise this isn’t for everyone

    Just Jezz Greatrix

    Never meet strangers

    Josh Djentleman Smith

    You mean people actually date off grindr and gaydar? When did this happen?

    Rob Hand

    Don’t suppose it matters really where you meet, it’s all down to the person you meet and connect with, most on dating apps are after one thing but same could be said for those you meet in real life! All generally down to the type of person they are
