Try some; it's good.
Wherein I ramble about books, movies, music, TV shows, my life, and occasionally, hot emo boys.

really random
I must give QB credit where it's due. She knows what she's talking about when she said all I have to do is mention Charles Dera and people will come. Just from her comment on my blog, I'm getting hits from tons of Charles Dera searches. Weirdly, my blog is on the third page when you Google Charles Dera.

Just so his fans don't go away mad, I present the following as a consolation prize. He's kinda hot, right? Funny, I had no idea who he was, but after QB mentioned him I did some searching. He's apparently like Fabio, only he's a really dirty boy. I guess he's making the jump into porn. I suppose it's not a far leap from letting people take pictures of your erect penis (which is a real monster by the way) to actually using said penis professionally.

That said, I'm afraid I don't really understand the fascination with cock. At least in a pictorial sense. When I look at a naked man, my first impression isn't, "Wow, hawt." Instead it's more like, snicker, giggle, chortle, look at that plucked chicken. I'm about to be sexist, so if you're easily offended, go make a sandwich. Just us now? Good.

I think naked men are funny looking. I really do. Now I like what their body parts can do for mine, don't get me wrong. It feels real nice, yep. But to look at? Not so much. I like pictures of shoulders, chests, manly backs, even asses, but as for wanting to peruse Penis Monthly to see what's out there, (oh, that one's crooked!), not so much. In fact, you can translate that to mean: I will never be interested in looking at dick-pix. Their dangly bits are just too absurd.

Oddly, I don't have the same response to naked women. Maybe that's a sign of my innate sapphic tendencies, but I find women's bodies graceful and lovely with their curves, their softness, and their hidden mysteries. That doesn't mean I'm ready to hump a woman just from seeing her picture, but seeing her naked doesn't set off junior high giggle fits either.

Uhm. Where was I going with this? I dunno. It's random Tuesday. That means this post probably didn't have a point, except, possibly: naked men are funny looking.

ROFLMAO!!! Now see, I'm 50 years old and still find penises endlessly fascinating!

I think it's because it's the differences between men and us that attract me so much and we just don't have a corresponding completely autonomous organ like their penises.

Now those dangling, hairy scrotums? THOSE are freaky looking! LMAO!

Blogger Michele Lee said...
Yay for getting to be explicit... sort of. Men are funny looking because women instinctually attracted to strength and provider like things. Women are beautiful nude because men are very, very visual. That's why video porn is more popular among males and women prefer erotic romance.

And that's one porn I wouldn't mind watching. I was just complaining how the men are usually old and nasty and not at all charismatic. And "Porn for women" tends to not show certain shots and scene that I like.

Your reference to his "monster" made me curious. Yes, he's large. Reminded me of a quote from Judi Dench in the Daily Star about Daniel Craig: "It's an absolute monster! Maybe I shouldn't have said that. How uncouth of me!" He's not porn big, but Judi Dench talking about him made me crack up.

Next week on Try some, it's good, we're taking on...

Dangly hairy scrotums! Stay tuned.

wanna make a guy cry? (or at least cringe in horror?)

point at his junk and say:

"piƱata"

Blogger December Quinn said...
I've always thought if they filmed erotic romance for porn, like good stuff with costumes, I'd watch. I'd totally watch that!

That man isn't bad at all, but where is the peen?

I wouldn't say I love looking at them (I think it's more the appeal of the secret), but I don't find them as unattractive and odd-looking as I used to. But then I've been lucky and been with some men who had truly attractive ones.

He is Hot! I personally haven't seen him before. I think I'll pick up that movie when it comes out `g*........Has anyone watched Dave Chapelle's comedy before, he made a joke about mens balls, he said something like,I'm going to shave my balls and shine them and go around saying look at my shiny balls.(Sorry it was funny when I watched him say it,I got weird humor)

Blogger Pamela Tyner said...
I really have nothing to add to this post, other than I sure did enjoy reading it. It was very entertaining :)

Blogger Ann(ie) said...
You know, I think I must be getting old. Because if I ever found myself looking for a new man, the way he looked would be the least of my concerns. I'd be interested in whether he does dishes and if he will do every damn thing I ask without bitching about it. The rest is negotiable.

I hope I don't ever have to look, though. I'm happy with the one I've got. Took me ten long years but he's perfectly trained now.

Blogger Ann(ie) said...
Haha, December. I've had fun playing with them over the years but I don't think I ever looked at one and said, "Wow, that's really pretty. I'd love to have a closeup of it for the fireplace mantle, maybe get a nice gilt frame..."

So it appears we agree that he's hot at least and a few of you are gonna be looking for his movies. I'm talking to you, Michele and Danette! He's already been in something called the Barely Legal series, but I don't know which one.

Okay, I'm so cracking up at the idea of Judi Dench talking about Daniel Craig's wang. Looked at pic, he does look pretty impressive. He's flacid there, right? Wow, we're nasty bitches. But what the hell, I only get men on this blog once in a blue moon. This almost like girlie locker room talk.

Hi and welcome, Pamela! Make yourself at home.

PS - If you really want to see Charles's Dera's package, just Google him. It's not hard to find. I'm sorry, but this is a penis-free zone. We talk about them, but I find them too funny looking to have throbbing members on my blog.

Blogger ERiCA said...
Since we're in TMI mode, I'll admit I feel the same. Nekkid dangly bits don't do much for me (especially in dangly form) whereas I agree that the naked female form can be erotic. That said, I don't go out of my way to look at nude women any more than I would nude men. But the sight of a sexy male neck/shoulder/back/profile/etc does a whole lot more for me than just the sight of the dangly bits themselves. A man with long eyelashes and a bad boy smile, though... *purr*

Blogger Ann(ie) said...
Piffle. (I sound like I'm 87 when I say stuff like that, don't I?)

To my mind, TMI includes bodily functions, disgusting ailments, and explicit details regarding real life sexual anecdotes. Like, "Last night my man and I..." (fill in the blank with inappropriate information).

Everything else, discussed in abstract, is fair game. Mwahaha!

Blogger QB said...
"all I have to do is mention Charles Dera and people will come."

*hee-hee* She said "come". *snicker*

(Sorry, my inner 12 year old just spotted that.)

That's it December! It's the finding out about the "secret". I keep going back to that picture of Gerard Butler in wet swim trunks and thinking...if I could only see a bit more...

Blogger pure said...
Gerard Butler in wet swim trunks... drool.

maybe it's my mind set but that guy looks a muscular Sylar (Heroes, people). can't get hot about a that slices the top of heads off and does something weird with the brains.

Blogger roslynholcomb said...
I like looking at cocks, I think they're fascinating and gorgeous. Then again, at least one friend has told me that I'm actually a transgendered gay man. It's been five years and I still can't get my mind around that convoluted concept. Its like a twisted Victor/Victoria kind of thing.

Blogger Ann(ie) said...
I've never seen Sylar out of the shadows. We're still in Season 1 here. Last episode, Peter just saved Claire, but then it looked like he was being arrested. Hiro had gone back in time to save the waitress, but I don't know if he will do it. I hope so, I liked her.

I fucking love that show. I'm not a Dera fan either, Pure. My crushes tend to occur for more esoteric reasons. Voices are what do it for me. So I dig guys like:

Michael Wincott
Vin Diesel
Michael Dorn
Ron Perlman

I go for rugged-ugly more than pretty boys. I make a special exception for Hugh Jackman.

Blogger Ann(ie) said...
Heh, what a thing for somebody to say, Roslyn!

I saw somebody on TV, think it was on Springer, a few years back, and he claimed to be a transgendered lesbian.

I was like, "Dude, don't that just mean you're straight?"

It's far too complex for me.

Blogger carrie_lofty said...
You mentioned Michael Wincott again -- He of the Sexy Voice. Maybe you should make it a personal goal for your blog, to say his name every few weeks. Like a hawt good luck charm.

Blogger Ann(ie) said...
I'm loyal! It's not like he's getting leading man roles, even though he won my heart foreva in The Crow. It's my grassroots publicity campaign. One dall all womenz will rise up screaming for Michael Wincott in better roles and Hollywood will listen!

or I'll just blog about him alot. maybe I'll rename the blog, I wish Michael Wincott was here.

Blogger roslynholcomb said...
That's what I thought too Annie, but I'm a bit of a ditz, so I thought maybe I missed something.

I googled Mr. Dera, and while he's impressive, I dunno I have a bit of a problem with guys whose ball sac hangs down like that. Its as long as his penis.

I always assumed that those nude male models were gay for some reason. Sort of like Chippendale dancers. Doesn't really do it for me if they're gay.

Blogger lacey kaye said...
Me, neither. Ew!
