i feel so like bradford today

Mission accomplished at Pentagurl City Mall last night: undies, dress shirt, tightie whities and black Kenneth Cole shoes bought instead of 'grampaw' Florsheim shoes. You just can't help but shop fabulous with her. Some lessons learned at the mall:

Mitzh didn't let me get anything plaid, even though I am Eddie Bauer to her Aeropostale. I did find the cutest pair of linen drawstring pants that make my junk fall out of my trunk quite nicely.

Was just reading through another really 'down to earth' butch profile on bigmusclebears.com today, where yet another bear slams circuit queens. And yet I continually see pics like this, where it is clear that bears have formed their own, hairier and bigger, circuit scene. Now, I like bears and I like circuit parties, but the bears need to get off their high horse with the elitist attitude here. Clearly as many pills are being popped by the bears as there are by the less hirsute party boys. Flip side of the same coin, it's just that one side is furrier. Just cut the hypocritical superiority trip and 'fess up, mmmkay?

THIS JUST IN: Whitney is out of rehab. Congrats, Whitney!

Wait, irony itself isn't over. It's just the obvious i'm-trying-really-hard-to-be-ironic-and-not-the-literary-way-so-i-spent-fifty-bucks-on-this-shirt-at-urban-that-looks-like-i-got-it-at-amvets irony that's out.

If actual irony were out, I think I'd die.

I have to agree with you with the attitude the hirsute community has sometimes. Here in Dallas they are probably the most clickish group around and highly opinionated.

Bears are much more fun to hang out with... less uptight than most of the cicuit boys...

they seem to be alot more comfortable with themselves...

how is that for a blanket statement.... ;-)

Big Muscle Bears is interesting. At least, the definition of "muscle" some people are using is interesting.

What's more elitist - looking down on people because they don't buy the right clothes, get the right haircuts, and go to the right places, or looking down on them because their genes didn't give them hairy bodies?

I've never noticed any bears slamming "circuit queens". I guess I'm out of touch - my bear card was revoked in late 2002 anyway :o(

Yea, the "bears" feel strongly about not being labeled "circuit queens" because that would cut into the masculine image and all that other hairy shit.

By recognization of a few guys there, I can verify the amounts of pill popping, etc. parallels the hairless, less beefy party goers.
Since I have a profile on bigmusclebrats, I should speak up... I just get discouraged that they/we feel the need to congregate & organize these seperate events so much in order to have a good time. If they're really so comfortable in their skin (hair & all) why can't they let loose amongst all the "real circuit queens"?
OK so I'm big and hairy and prefer guys similar to that, but can't I just be labeled as "really likes to go shake his hairy ass once in a while"!

Or something like that. And I agree about Aeropostale... yuck.

...but you are so much better looking than Brad.

Unfortunately it's the same over here in London...

You see the exact same body language in parties in London - groups of 'bears' - all the same body type, stood in a huddle, backs to the rest of the crowd, especially those that don't have the right body.

I'm desperately trying to locate how these guys get to be how they are... were they big nasty jocks who came out the closet too late? Are they snooty muscle maries who stopped shaving? Or are they the fat faggy kids from school who suddenly, unexpectedly found themselves at the top of the dating pool and forgot what it's like to be pushed out because of the way you look?

Whatever - the hypocrasy is eating away at any sense of community.

and regrettably during that time I threw away phentermine a lot of material which I could've done something viagra with now. I had a real block around lyrics for ambien songs I was writing, in particular. And one thing paxil that really helped to lift me out of that self-damning paxil phase was to go into the studio with Phil and make levitra a rap song. Two things about that: first, even cialis though it was a first effort, and we were two whiteys soma who admittedly didn't know as much about rap ionamin
