1. Men can be both pitchers and catchers

2. The anal tissue is weaker than the vagina tissue, bleeds easier. That’s part of the reason why straight porn looks rougher and more pleasing to people, because you just can’t really fuck an ass like you do a vagina usually. Men can still get fucked hard but really it takes a lot of mental preparation for that and is something that must be progressed up to.

3. Men obviously require less grooming for sexual intercourse than women. Gay or straight, men’s sexuality is just different. So if two gay men want to get it on, there is little in the way that is stopping them.

Be careful the first time you have anal sex. Just ‘wrapping it up’ isn’t all there is to it. It’s not like a porn video. Encourage people (ESPECIALLY OUR GAY YOUTH) to have sex with those they know and trust.

Intimacy and healthy relationships are always more important than getting to have anal sex. It can be mind-blowingly pleasurable for gay boys but it’s not all there is to being gay, teach people to use this sexual power responsibly.

I consider myself fortunate that my mom decided not to have me circumcised. The main reason why circumcision is so widespread in America (even as it has dramatically declined in other English-speaking countries) is because it’s been erroneously assumed to promote health for so long that people take for granted that “clean-cut” means precisely that, while uncut means quite the opposite. Various researchers have been trying to find justifications for circumcision for decades, long after it became clear that it failed to achieve its original goal — preventing masturbation — so pardon my skepticism when people name yet another risk that it supposedly reduces.

Circumcision is not understood to impact the receptive partner but rather to protect the insertive partner.
