  • The Celebrities Who Have Said They’re A Little Bit Gay

    Maybe this is a trend, but a number of celebrities have announced that they are a little bit gay or bisexual.

    We have a look at who has opened up about their sexuality but not labelled themselves specifically as gay or bisexual.

     

    Mickey Rourke

    In February 2016, Mickey Rourke, whilst responding to Manny Pacquiao’s comments about gay people being worse than animals, said that he was a little bit gay. Speaking with TMZ Rourke said,

    “I think they were wrong and out of place. And I think that we all gotta watch what we say… That was from the Old Testament, so you got to give him a little bit of room. I got a lot of gay friends… I’m a little bit gay myself.”

     

    Sacha Baron Cohen

    Sacha Baron Cohen put his sexuality on a scale of 17 to 31 per cent depending on the situation. He was, of course, promoting a film at the time of his statement.

     

    Olly Murs

    Olly caused a stir when the news broke that he had told The Sun’s Dan Wootton that he was 20 per cent gay.

     

    George Shelley

    George Shelley opened up about his sexuality by saying that he is attracted to men and women but refused to label himself as gay or bisexual – calling labels “old-fashioned”.

     

    Harry Styles

    Harry Styles caused a bit of stir when he suggested that gender was not an important factor in his attraction to someone. 

    During an interview with Harry and Liam from the world’s most successful boy band, Harry dropped a rather heavy hint that perhaps his sexuality maybe isn’t just that of heterosexual.

    Harry and Liam were asked what they looked for in a partner, Liam answered,

    ‘Female, that’s a good trait.’

    However Harry said, with an awkward giggle:

    ‘Not that important’.

    ‘I would say sense of humour, and like natural”.

     

    Brenton Thwaites

    Brenton Thwaites subtly suggested that gender wasn’t an important factor in his perfect partner. A fan asked the question which ‘three things you look for in a partner,’ Thwaites responded, ‘male or female? They’re very different.’

    However Brenton is reportedly dating Chloe Pacey and they have one child together born 2016.

    Sinead O’Connor

    Sinead O’Connor came out and then went back in again. She said in an interview with Entertainment Weekly that she was three-quarters heterosexual.

     

    David Bowie

    David Bowie came out as gay in 1972 during an interview with Melody Maker, then he came out as bisexual in 1976 in an interview with Playboy. However, by 1983, he said that coming out as bisexual was the biggest mistake I ever made” and “I was always a closet heterosexual”. David Bowie was married to two women during his life, Angie Barnett and Iman Mohamed Abdulmajid.

     

    James Franco

    James Franco admitted that he was gay – up until a point. That point was intercourse. So while he loves LGBT culture he doesn’t actually want to do any dudes… Yet.

  • 13 Myths About Gay Sex

    13 Myths About Gay Sex

    Who’s the woman? Doesn’t it hurt? Why do you wear jockstraps? So many many questions…

     

    That it ends up with penetration.

    In this penetration obsessed world we forget that not every sexual encounter has to end up with a game of toss the hoop. Nope there’s a ton of things you can do without going there. Frottage, mutual masturbation, oral and perhaps a bit of light cuddling?

    That there are very limited positions

    One evening a girl friend of mine asked didn’t I get bored because I couldn’t face my partner during sex. I was like “WTF?” She was like “you’re your butt hole is at the back…”

    Listen… our joints can move… and our hips can tilt! We’re not fused into position. Anything you can do I can do better. Basically anything the straights can do in bed, the gays can compete just as well.

    That it looks like this: Westboro Baptist Churchmopedmamas

    Westboro Baptist church would have you believe that gay men only have sex standing up facing away of each other. Such a warped view… Although that position is a goodun.

    That only one of you is the top and only one of you is the bottom.

    We can both top and bottom and all in one session. Crazy that. You don’t have to be limited to just one set of roles.

    That you both have to cum

    Where are all these rules coming from? It’s sex. Do what makes you happy. If you don’t want or can’t cum in the moment, don’t stress about it. Keep calm and try later! It’s not a race or a competition.

    That you have to have 7/8/9/19 inch penises

    Regardless of what you may see in gay porn, men come in all shapes, sizes, colours and girths – and what makes one person’s perfect penis may be somebody else’s vanilla hell.

    That you have to look like porn stars

    Just because your body doesn’t look like some Adonis it doesn’t mean that you aren’t beautiful. Enjoy your body and your partner’s

    It will hurt

    It might… but then again it might not.

    It won’t hurt

    We aren’t all one shape fits all. Each person is different but if it does hurt. Stop, relax and try more lube and try again – if you want to.

    That gay men end up having to use sanitary towels.

    We’re convinced this is an urban legend. If you keep yourself safe and aren’t swallowing up whole traffic cones with your butthole , you’ll be just fine.

    If you feel like you’re getting loose down there, try some PC muscle exercises… You know the muscles that you use to stop and start the flow of pee? Yes those babies… Work em out.

    It’s just dirty.

    Dirty good? Dirty bad?

    Dirty bad? If you know your body and know how to prepare yourself it won’t be… Read our guide on how to have sex like a porn star to find out more.

    That one of you has to be “the man” and the other “the woman”

    Stop with the roles already. We’re both men here!

    It’s how you get HIV

    Where to go with this. HIV is a virus that knows no sexuality, race, colour creed or gender. You can be infected from all different types of sex. As with everything in life use your head not your cock to make wise decisions about your health. Use a condom, use lots of lube and look out for one another.

  • ADVICE | How To Bottom

    ADVICE | How To Bottom

    We get requests at THEGAYUK about all manner of things, one that is asked a lot is how to bottom.

    Well, we’ve enlisted the help of top porn star Kit Wilde to give us some tips on how to make sure you put your best bottom forward and be a bottoming king.

    Advice on these sort of subjects is difficult, for the simple reason that sex, like most things, is subjective. I could have sex with a one night stand and think it was pretty average and the following week you could have sex with the same person and think it’s mind-blowing.

    There are however a few tips and hints on how to make bottoming easier and more pleasurable, again bare in mind that this is subjective so what works for me might not work for you. The key is to listen to your body!

    WASH IT OUT

    A douche or an anal enema is a bulb-like product used to clean the anal passage from waste. The enema is used to push water into your anal passage which you then expel repeating until the water being expelled runs completely clean.

    You can get a douche for most adult stores (check out THEGAYSHOP) and most of them stock them in various sizes all pretty cheaply enough and if ordering online most stores offer discreet packaging.

    Most anal enemas come with directions for use, please read them carefully before use, but generally, these 6 steps should help.

    CLEAN BEFORE USE

    • Clean the douche well before use with warm soapy water, any muck or grime on it can increase the likelihood of contracting an infection, ensure the douche is clean of any soap as well before use.

    LUKEWARM WATER

    • Fill the device with lukewarm water. Do not use scolding hot water or water with soap in it. Just plain old warm water, test it first, remember this water is going inside you, let’s try and not have a trip to A&E because you’ve scolded your rectum.

    LUBE IT UP

    • Lubricate the douche and the anal cavity (that’s your bum hole), this makes it easier to insert, as a side note, your rectal cavity tears easily, so don’t just go shoving it inside you. If you’re struggling to get the flute inside your anus, take your time, relax, reapply more lubrication and try again. Need some lube, check out our selection of lubes.

    INSERT AND SQUEEZE

    • Before you insert the douche, squeeze the bulb to release the air so the water fills the flute, this stops you pushing air into your body and means you won’t end up with trapped wind. Squeeze the bulb with ease allowing the water to fill you.

    REMOVE

    • Remove the douche, keeping your grip on it whilst holding the water inside you. DO NOT release your grip on the douche as it’ll suck the water back into the douche. Only when the douche is fully removed from your body relax and release the water (it’s easier and less messy to do this on the toilet).

    REPEAT

    • Continue the process until the water remains clear and free from any waste.

    Although the use of an anal enema is very helpful in planned situations it’s not very helpful for those spontaneous sexual moments when you just let the mood take you. In times like these, you need to use something you can not buy from a shop.

    You need communication, you might think it’s embarrassing to talk about but believe me, it’s far less embarrassing to say “do you know what? I might not be clean” than for your sexual partner to find that out the hard way.

    If you’re in doubt take some time and go to the toilet, remember that while the anus and rectum do not usually store faeces, there may be remnants left behind so make sure to thoroughly clean the area around your butt, I’ve found that moist towelettes (baby wipes) really help with this or if you have a little more time maybe try a quick shower.

    Now, this is the bit that may make a few people feel gross, but, trust me it’s far less embarrassing you finding something than your sexual partner.

    The Finger Check

    You can use your finger to check and see if you feel any remnants inside you, which can be removed pretty quickly. Yes I’m aware I am literally suggesting you pull your poo out with your finger but if you really want to have sex and don’t want your sexual partner to end with a messy penis, cleaning is necessary.

    If you do clean yourself out with your fingers though, be sure to wash your hands very thoroughly. I am very aware that the process of cleaning out your ass is embarrassing, but please for the love of Cher talk to your partner about it.

    Spontaneous or long-term partner, communication is important as it helps both (or more) of you understand what, if any preparations are needed to be made beforehand, it also lets everyone prepare for any potential accidents that may occur. Be aware that if they do occur, it’s ok, these things do happen just bear in mind that next time you might want to allow for more time to prepare.

    Listen to your body

    As a final note, remember it’s your body, take your time and enjoy yourself. If you’re not enjoying yourself listen to your body, change position or go a little slower.

    Do not be afraid to tell your partner no, or ask them to slow down or even stop. You’re not letting anyone down and you should never feel guilty for having to stop.

    Sometimes your body isn’t ready for sex regardless of the amount of preparation you do, and forcing your body to do it could end very messily. Long-term partner or a one-night fling safe sex is always key, whether you choose to wear a condom or go bareback, make sure you get your sexual health checked on a regular basis and know your status.

    Be open and honest with the guy you’re having sex with. Hope this little guide helps. Have fun

Whether they are low budget affairs, have unknown actors or are foreign films which do not garner much publicity, there are some great films out there which can delight, charm and move you. So here are five films which you may have missed, but are well worth catching up with.

    Poltergay

    In this utterly charming French comedy, a young man, Marc, and his new wife move into an old house which used to be used as an underground gay club, until an unfortunate accident involving a short circuiting foam machine resulted in an explosion, and is now haunted by five gay ghosts.Trapped in the confines of the house and excited by the buff new arrival, the gay ghosts cause Marc to think he is losing his mind, as he is the only one who can see them and the only one who can constantly hear Boney M playing on repeat.

    20 Things You Get Only If You’re A Early Millennial Gay Man

    Older Millennial guys let me hear your war cries… We were the first generation of gay men who got to live more freely because of our forefathers’ efforts, we took fashion risks, we grew up with safer sex messages that rocked our world and we saw Charlie Hunnam get rimmed.

    1) UFO clothing was everything and you had to have Buffalo shoes.

    God knows what we were thinking.

     

    2) We played our love lifes out to Geri Halliwell’s first and best album.

    Gerihalliwell-schizophonic

    Bag It Up was the theme tune to our life.

    3) We remember those AIDS ads from the TV and condom usage was always a must.

    That was so scary, condoms basically jumped onto our dicks.

     

    4) Charlie Hunnam was literally everything.

    Queer as folk was everything. And **that** rimming scene taught you everything you needed to know and a little bit more.

     

    5) You remember watching watching Tony Hills and Simon Raymonds kiss for the first time on EastEnders and it was electric

    Thank god there was no Twitter back then. Social media would have completely melted as these two love birds locked lips.

    6) Coming Out at school was probably still a huge No No.

    It can still be tough to come out at school, but it was a complete no no back in the 80s and 90s.

     

    7) You couldn’t talk about being gay with your teachers at school. It was against the law.

    Yep. Thanks to Margaret Thatcher and the Tories in the 80’s we were “protected” from talking about sexuality in schools.

     

    8) You remember thinking as a child that Todd from Neighbours was everything.

    Todd was hot. There was no way of denying it.

     

    9) When you came out the idea of marriage was so extreme you thought you’d end up alone and always be a social pariah that never married.

    Thank you 2004 and civil partnerships.

     

    10) Celebrities only came out in newspaper exposés or interviews.

    Celebrities were either forced out or made some £££ out of coming out for national rags. Careers were often ruined and teen girls everywhere cried themselves to sleep.

     

    11) Gaydar was really the only way to hook up online.

  • 11 Things You Only Know If You Have Worked In A Gay Bar

    Ah the gay bar. Home of drag, porn on the TV and hen nights.

    If you’ve ever worked in a gay bar you will have seen it all – the fights, the make ups, the ridiculously sticky floor the back pages of Boyz magazine.

    They put up with your aftershave, your drunken “banter” and they get paid less than the go-go boys.

    So next time you’re in your local give a thought to the cutie between the bar.

    1) The more pert your pecs the bigger the tips

    ©-artofphoto-Depositphotos
    ©-artofphoto-Depositphotos

    Yep. Basically gay bars are the homo version of hooters. The more pert you are the bigger your tips will be.

    2) The champagne wankers

    You, yes you drinking the cheapest Champagne on the menu thinking you’re the best thing since Brad Pitt’s sliced bread. You might be fooling yourself, but that ain’t Vivienne Westwood you’re wearing and you’re definitely not a 30 inch waist.

    The more obtuse you become the longer I’ll make you wait.

    3) The Smells

    Ahhh there’s nothing like the smell of D10, Jean Paul Gaultier and poppers in the morning.

    4) Those bastard safer sex packs

    Who the eff thinks it’s funny to blow up the safe sex pack of condoms and use them as beach balls across the dance floor. At the end of the night the floor is literally filled with dirty, used looking deflated extra strong condoms.

    5) Those bastard free bar magazines

    Spilled your drink? Don’t worry use one of the free rags. We honestly don’t mind picking those sodden tattered rags up at the end of evening. Honestly. Bastards.

    6) The fights

     It’s not always the boys… Girls calm down…

    7) Kylie and Madonna on repeat

    Just because we’re gay and Madge and Kyles are both gay icons they don’t need to be on repeat constantly – and the live version of Madonna’s “Vogue” is crap. Play the real version dammit.

    8) The drag queens

    Drinking your way through the profits. Don’t think we don’t see what you’re doing. Bravo.

    9) Being made to go flier

    here’s literally nothing worse than being made to go flier out in the cold. The shame if my ex-boyfriend sees me.

    10) Bumping into your ex.

    Of all the gay bars in all the world, you have to turn up in my place of work with the turnip you call your new boyfriend.

    11) Hen parties are literally the worst.

    When you walk in. All I’m thinking is F**K OFF

    Here are fourteen things you know you found before your straight friends. Some of these we can be proud of, some are better best forgotten.

    1) Electric Blue lighting…

    There was a time in the late 90s / early noughties when gay bars were lit almost exclusively (not really) by electric blue lighting. It was like a gay calling card. Moths to a flame. Hardly a bar in the UK didn’t have their logo or name backlit with that midnight colour.
