It starts with a suited model clearly pulling down his zipper behind a table. As the oiled up guy with his hand down his pants undoubtedly undresses the reader with his eyes on the next page, the last setting showcases a man with his pants down to the ground. Did I mention that the photo is from the thigh down? But not low enough, as the photographer makes sure we catch a glimpse of his under carriage. Oh, and the guy behind him in his underwear is just an innocent bystander.Perhaps these guys were all sitting around waiting for their next orgasm, I don't know. I lost the plot after about two minutes of looking at these ads. As my special friend would likely say: "cheque please!"
Now that you've been verbally provoked to go out and purchase this month's issue, I merely question the purpose. Though GQ is viewed by men, women, hetero and homosexual alike, isn't there a universal line for tasteless? A few months ago it was pubic hair greeting the reader out of the D&G underwear, so what's next for April?

Unmentionables
So, I am sat in the lounge of my favorite client, who just happen to be in the menswear business and I am face to face with the March issue of Gentlemans Queerly, erm, I mean, Quarterly, with one outrageously handsome Matthew Fox on the cover. I started to make my way through the pages and came upon the adverts for Dolce & Gabbana. I did the comic double take, squinted my eyes down to a size that would better help me to adjust to what I was now being confronted with. A few sobering seconds later and I finally realized that what I was seeing was in fact real and not something my sick twisted perverted mind had made up. I spotted several full page ads that had many beautiful dudes, sat around in their homo-erotic habitat, wearing all manner of the designer gear.
