Bryan Thompson is a designer living in San Diego. He currently writes the design blog for Bravotv.com, and he recently began contributing to OUTzone. His first story is about a very cool guy named Tug, which you can check out: HERE.
In 1979 I was only five years old but I worshipped Erik Estrada enough to tear a photo of him out of the TV Guide and tape it to my wall. Imagine my mom's surprise when she saw the shot of a shirtless "Ponch" right there over her young son's bed. I remember how she looked at the picture, did a double take, and then asked, "Bryan, I'm curious why you want this in your bedroom?"
I grinned and replied: "It makes me feel good."
To her credit she just nodded and smiled and didn't immediately sign me up for analysis. Much later she told me she knew I was gay even before I put up the photo. She let me keep the picture until the crush was over. That episode stayed with me and taught me something. It's clear my fondness for dark-haired, broad-shouldered men goes way back. And I also realize I don't need to be afraid of who I am or what I want.
