These photos were taken ten years apart. When I posted the latest one, I thought it looked oddly familiar – and not just because I’ve seen my nakedness all over the place, but more for the pose and the background, and I realized I just put the older one up a few days ago. So yes, this is me ten years ago, and me today. Maybe the hairline is now set back a bit, maybe there are a few more wrinkles, and maybe I had the precognizance to realize that out of all my body parts (hello tummy) my ass would best withstand the test of time – but I think I’ve weathered things rather well. Ten years is a long time. Will I be taking this shot again when I’m 47? You bet my ass. Gay guys need to learn to grow older without fear.
