In Belated August Upset, Efron Wins Back SMA Title

Posted on September 3, 2009 by queerlefty

Before you re-read David Plotz’ otherwise excellent case for abolishing August (it’s such a crappy month that even its SMA edition runs late!), consider the August edition of the Sexiest Males Alive list. Things have been fairly stable for months … Continue reading →

Early Gay Crushes: Ethan Hawke

Posted on April 22, 2009 by queerlefty

Early Gay Crushes: Ryan Phillippe

Posted on September 25, 2008 by queerlefty
