Ptown on the 4th of July
It has been a couple of years since Sergio and I have spent the 4th of July holiday in Provincetown, but I have very happy memories of all the craziness that transpires. For all of you in Provincetown for the holiday week I hope you are having fun and I look forward to hearing your stories when you come back.
PrEP studies highlight the importance of adherence
PrEP is a topic of conversation sexually active gay men should have with their doctor. While it may not make sense for everyone, understanding the impact the drug may have on you and our community is important. Recently researchers from Gilead Sciences, Truvada’s manufacturer, presented findings from their analysis of several studies at the ASM Microbe 2016 conference in Boston. This was what they learned:
An analysis of 32 studies of Truvada a.k.a. PrEP found that almost all of those who contracted HIV had undetectable or very low levels of the drug in their bodies at the time.
The takeaway message is if you choose to use PrEP and are engaging in sexually risky behavior you MUST make sure you take your medication as prescribed. You can read the full findings online here.

Enjoy the 4th of July holiday weekend
The forecast for the 4th of July holiday weekend appears to be pretty spectacular. If you live in the United States, I hope you are able to enjoy the long holiday weekend with your family and friends. Sergio and I will be relaxing in Boston this year, enjoying all the sun and warmth summer can provide.
Happy 240th birthday United States.
Furry Friday
I posted these photos of one of my favorite Provincetown drag performers a couple years ago and now that the summer is in full swing in Ptown I thought I’d share the sexy selfies once again for this week’s Furry Friday – enjoy. This guy is as talented as he is good looking.
Obama greeted with cheers by Canadian Parliament
I know that not everyone feels this way, but I wholeheartedly agree with the Canadian Parliament who cheered President Obama with a standing ovation while chanting “Four more years!” I would gladly vote for Obama again.
This video must make everyone at FOX News physically ill to see Obama so loved. It certainly doesn’t gel with their view that we’ve lost influence among our friends and allies. You can see Obama’s full address on Joe My God.

Keeping with the theme of prominent gay men from years past (last week I had a photo of Oscar Wilde and his lover), this week is a photo of Walt Whitman – one of America’s most celebrated poets and his muse and younger lover (he had a penchant for younger men), Peter Doyle.
Brian Sims “Bears and Beer” bust returns to Ptown
Pennsylvania State Representative Brian Sims is returning to Provincetown during Bear Week for his 2nd annual “Bears and Beer” bust, on Tuesday, July 12, at the beautiful Sage Inn and Lounge from 2 pm to 4 pm.
This will be a fun and casual opportunity for you to welcome and meet Brian back to Provincetown and to help support his re-election. Previous events have sold out so if you are planning to be in Ptown for Bear Week and you like Brian (and let’s face it – who doesn’t?) then RSVP before the event fills up.
Word of the day: Twink
I like to think of my blog as an important, educational site that can help you expand your vocabulary. In honor of the circuit party, that officially starts in Provincetown tomorrow, today’s vocabulary word is twink.
Twink (twingk /adjective)
Definition: A typically younger, thinner, gay man with little or no body hair.
Example: Twinks love Sergio.
