Monday morning mancandy

Patrick Lentz Photography, hairy, handsome, hunk

For this week’s post I figured I’d re-share Patrick Lentz’s photos of Nick from Gloucester, MA. Hopefully Nick’s flirtatious photo will be a distraction and help you start your Monday morning with a smile. You can see more of Nick in my Valentine’s Day post back in 2016.

I can appreciate the need for coffee first thing in the morning. Hat tip to Testosterone (NSFW) blog by Brazilian blogger, Joao, for sharing this photo.

Exclusive screening of documentary: 5B

Tuesday, March 15th Fenway Health and the Coolidge Corner Theatre will host a complimentary screening of the documentary film 5B, which honors the amazing nurses, physicians, and caregivers who built Ward 5B at San Francisco General Hospital in 1983 — during the height of the AIDS crisis.

Not all superheroes wear capes & masks
Some wear scrubs & stethoscopes

This is an an inspirational story about men and women who took extraordinary action to comfort, protect and care for the patients of the first HIV/AIDS ward unit in the United States. The program is free but will be limited to 60 participants so register to get your seat while they last.

The film will be followed by a brief Q&A with former Ward 5B nurse Alison Moed, Boston Association of Nurses in AIDS Care Chapter President Justin Alves, and Fenway Health’s Adrianna Boulin, Director of Community Impact and Engagement.

Vintage gay

This looks like an intense make out session in progress. Who would’ve snapped such a photograph? I’d have been ticked for sure. Based on the radio on the desk and the hairstyles in the photo, I’m going to guess this was taken in the early 1980s. Can anyone help identify when this may have been taken?

I dedicate this weekly post, featuring vintage gay photographs, to the men and women who lived in a more critical time where being true to yourself and loving who you want wasn’t always an option and came at a great price. Do you have a photo you would like to share? Email me at bosguymail@gmail.com.

Temptation Tuesday

Lucien Leon Laviscount

Lucien is a 20-something British actor who many in the United States might recognize from the season 2 Netflix series “Emily in Paris’ where Lucien plays the coy banker who flirts like a pro with Emily.

I first featured the actor as a Monday Mancandy post in February 2021, but his classic good looks and rising popularity mean that I’ll probably be tempted to feature him again in the future.

Men in kilts

Found out that this photo was actually doctored and the original picture is quite innocent. Richard Findlay is the photographer and was nice enough to share the link in the comments section below.

This week’s photo comes from the NSFW Twitter account @Str8WithChaser. The original photo is too risqué for my pg-13 blog, but the unedited version is on the Twitter account or you can HMU.

Monday morning mancandy

Much thanks to avid reader and commenter, Angel from Spain, for sharing this week’s mancandy photo. It’s been too long since I’ve last featured a ginger for this weekly post.

Paige Turner returns to Club Cafe

Paige Turner – 2-time Glam Award winner, who you may have seen in NYC or Provincetown – is coming to Club Cafe for two shows on Friday, February 11 and Saturday, February 12.

Paige Turner’s show, My Funny Valentine, will have you laughing out loud throughout this ridiculous evening of ALL-LIVE singing. Mayhem and foolishness is certain and I guarantee if you’ve never seen a Paige Turner show you will love it as she sings songs from Carly Rae Jibson, One Direction, Broadway, 80’s, Hedwig and more.

Tickets start at $30 and are on sale now. These shows will sell out so get your tickets now.

Scruffy Sunday

Time to wake up Sam. If you would like to see more of Sam check him out on Twitter at @just_samvass.
