Vintage gay
Much thanks to the Twitter account @oldmasc for initially sharing this fantastic photo. I’m assuming this dates back to the 1970s or early 1980s. Can anyone offer insight on when you think this was 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.

Hopefully the caption I’ve shared below inspires you to offer up one or two of your own. Leave a funny caption in the comment section, and I’ll approve it for readers to enjoy.

Book review: Justify My Sins
Justify My Sins by Felice Picano would be a great beach read or book to bring with you on vacation. I’m unfamiliar with the accomplished author who has published two dozen novels, short stories, and memoires but his easy writing style and humorous storytelling made this an enjoyable and easy read.
The story is “A Hollywood novel in three acts”, taking place in New York City and Los Angeles or “El Lay” as he writes on the first page. That witty and slightly saracastic style is prevelent throughout the 300+ page book which was published in 2019.
The shallow storyline and characters who are as deep as the kiddy pool (as I’m prone to say), make this an easy and uncomplicated read. The novel focuses almost exclusively on the sexscapades of the main character and his friends, the author’s ongoing wrangling with Hollywood studio executives and agents, and the excessive lifestyles of those people Victor meets along the way.
The “three acts” take place in 1977 when the main character, Victor Regina, is a young best selling author and the sex is easy and uncomplicated before picking up again in 1986 at the height of the AIDS epidemic, and closes with a more sanguine and worldly writer in the final act in 1999. Picano does a good job of making the main character (whom I assume is loosely based on himself) likeable and interesting. And for gay men who have lived in Los Angeles, I’m sure the author’s references to places in and around Los Angelese must be fun to read. If you’re looking for a light, gay-themed novel this is a good option. You’ll definitely find yourself chuckling throughout the novel.
If you’re interested in purchasing this book and open to supporting local bookstores, try one of the links I’ve shared. You’ll be able to order it online in just a couple of clicks. Alternatively, you can check your local library for a copy of this book. Here is a link to the BPL copy for Justify My Sins.

SpeakEasy Stage presents: The Inheritance
The Inheritance
Apr 22 – Jun 11, 2022
Earlier this weekend The SpeakEasy Stage production of The Inheritance opened at the Calderwood Pavilion in the South End. The 6+ hour play, which won the 2020 Tony Award for Best Play, is told in two 3+ hour seatings.
Based on E.M. Forster’s novel Howard’s End, which delved into social codes of conduct and relationships in Edwardian England, The Inheritance takes place nearly a hundred years later (a generation after the peak of the AIDS crisis) in New York. The play explores what it is like to be young gay man, the legacy left by previous generations, and the legacy of AIDS impact on gay men.
“The Inheritance is not as embracing of all humanity, living and dead: Its characters are too shallow, too narcissistic, too selfish, too grounded in time and space. Nonetheless, it will not easily be forgotten, either. The play is a remarkable slice of life in a time of war and a beautiful remembrance, “a haunting, a necessary haunting” of both the victims and the survivors of that war.” -Broadway Review by Marilyn Stasio in Variety
Content Advisory: play contains sexual content, nudity, violence and graphic language.

Saturday morning comics
ADAM & ANDY is set in the fictional New England town of Woodfield, CT. You can learn more about Adam and Andy and purchase a copy of “the definitive collection of Adam and Andy” by visiting, adamandandy.com.
While we wait for new material from James, I thought I’d share this throwback, initially published back in February 2001. Andy was far more frisky then.
