YES!! I never remembered watching Adam-12 when I was a kid, but it's in reruns now on an independent cable network, so I've been seeing a lot of Mr. McCord lately. Yum! (BTW - this station runs Adam-12 back-to-back with Dragnet - it's funny how the two shows are really EXACTLY the same, lol.)

Ah, yes...that brings me back to my young "starving artist" days just after college, taking any gig I could...and there I was, the musical director for a typically bad summer youth theatre production of Li'l Abner. The director was terrible - though he did have theatre training, his "day job" was being one of the sports coaches at a nearby high school. And he directed like a football coach, lol. Awful. But the one amazing thing he did was to recruit a number of the high school football jocks to be the "transformed" men for that scene in the show. And oh my, they were something to look at, lol. And since I wasn't out to anyone in this company (the director was also, I suspect, rather homophobic, and the cast was all kids/teens, so I just kept my private life to myself, lol), it was a hard task to try not to look at those studs TOO much, lol.

No, I did mean Scott Madsen. But I'll take some James Marsden too, lol. And as far as that Marky Mark Calvin Klein video is concerned - um yeah, that was some funky bunch...;-)

And, along with the Calvin Klein Ads, there was the Soloflex guy (aka Scott Madsen) - I seem to remember this poster hanging in my dorm room in my freshman year of college, thanks to my roomie...;-) http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_GSBWKqkC85Q/TCVCJ9V32UI/AAAAAAAAGr0/cc3rKofbxfA/s400/ScottMadsen01.jpg

Ah, but before Top Gun was Risky Business - with Cruise dancing around in his undies...;-)

Ah yes - who can forget that iconic opening sequence to Trapper John, MD, with Gregory Harrison stepping out of the shower...hmmm... Link to Trapper John opening theme

When I hit puberty, my parents decided it was time for me to own an athletic supporter to wear with my swim trunks, etc. The jockstrap came in a cardboard package with a picture of a model on the front, wearing (nothing but) the product. And even though I was rather confused about my sexuality then, I knew I was attracted to the guy on the package - so I made sure to keep it. I'm pretty sure this was right around the time that I first started having orgasms, because I do remember jacking off looking at the model's picture.

Ah yes - I liked them too. I forgot about McNichol. Also, Timothy Hutton in the film "Ordinary People" - and this was right on the cusp of my official coming out.

Some of the "child stars" already mentioned were certainly crushes of mine, but in a time when I wasn't out to myself enough yet to really understand what I was feeling when I looked at them, lol. Add Barry Williams (aka Greg Brady) to that list - also the character of Eddie Haskell from "Beaver" (not necessarily for his looks, though he was cute - but for his personality - that sly, mischevious, oily, patronizingly nice, troublemaker type. The kind of boy who could lure me into some private troublemaking of our own, lol.) Also add Johnny Whittaker to that list of cuties. And the two older sons on "My Three Sons" - I seem to remember they were hunks. Also, in those formidable years when I wasn't quite sure WHAT I was feeling yet, there was "Emergency." And it's funny, because my (straight) younger brother was absolutely obsessed with that show - and I had fun watching it too - but while my brother was more caught up in the fires, the accidents, the rescues, and the drama, I was staring at the paramedics and firemen, lol. The two lead guys were Randolph Mantooth and Kevin Tighe. Ah, those were the days...;-) BUT - going back to the original question in a more serious way - the TV star that actually helped me *accept* my sexuality was Billy Crystal, in his openly gay character on Soap. Again, not so much a crush as just a role model. Thank god for him.

Hey Jason - you definitely know how to turn a guy on...:-) As the guy who started this thread (with a slightly different screenname at the time), I'm also glad there's been a new interest in the topic. I never get tired of talking about pits, let alone doing other things with them, lol... Jason - if only you were in my neck of the woods...I could easily spend a whole session fawning over those dark hairy patches under your arms...(of course, the rest of you doesn't look too bad either, lol)

That is a cool story, Guptasa...I'm not really into all the verbal dom stuff, but the idea of it is still really hot.}(

Guptasa - I know what you mean - sometimes it's hard to stop... But another rule I made with this roleplay, after I edged my "patient" a few times, was that he couldn't shoot until I told him I was ready to "collect the sample" - and if he shot off without my okay, we'd just have to start the whole process all over again. So the patient had to take an active part in giving me a good signal whenever he felt he was getting close...it was really fun to see his reactions each time. Here's another story - and yes, this one too is true - my BF at the time (some years ago) loved stroking/edging me, particularly because I had (and still have) a tendency to shoot off too fast, and he liked seeing if he could get me to last longer. Well, this one night he was going at it for what seemed longer than usual - I was laying on the bed in the "normal" position (i.e. head on the pillow, on my back)...and when he finally let me cum, the first few shots sailed right over my head and onto the wall behind the bed! We were both pretty impressed, to say the least...lol. I don't even remember how intense that orgasm felt (I'm sure it was pretty strong) because I was so sidetracked by seeing the result of my long-distance abilities...}(

>GREAT bedside manner, doc! }( Thanks... }( It was, perhaps unfortunately, a one-night thing, but what made it great was that the other guy really got into the "patient" role, pretending to be innocent and naive about the nature of the "exam," keeping up his "straight boy" resolve to "do it for the team," etc. Taking a cue from your suggestions, it would be fun to add in some other stimuli - I'm not into some of your kinkier things (wax, clamps, etc), but having "doc" suggest that more intense kinds of stimulation will be needed to insure a large enough sample...adding in some nipple play and other erogenous zone exploring, and of course some oral stimulation as well... ...of course, if "doc" got carried away and swallowed the specimen, I guess we'd have to make another appointment, lol...}(

I guess this would really be more "edging" than milking, but I did get to play out a fantasy once - being a "doc" taking a "sperm sample" from a consenting yet sheepish "patient" - we set it up that he needed the sample taken to complete his "sports physical" and the rule was I had to help him produce the specimen. Of course, we played it that "patient" was straight and had never been pumped off by another guy before - but since I was a "doctor" and he really needed this result for his records, he agreed to let me do it. My stroking his cock seemed awkward for him at first, but banter about sex - especially about girls he liked (hey, guys, it's fantasy, lol) soon got him fully stiff and ready to let go with a sample. That's when I stopped stroking him, to his confusion. I explained I needed as much sperm as possible for this exam to go well, and that the more he held off, the bigger his load would be once I sensed it was time. Questions about how long this would take fell on deaf ears as I began stroking my patient's cock again. Of course, the more times I got him to the boiling point and stopped, the hornier the patient became - and the more he kept hoping the next time I started up would be the last, and he could finally shoot for me. (The guy in reality loved being edged, so this was the fun part...lol). Each time I took careful notice of the sounds and facial expressions my patient made as he approached climax; each time I stopped I noted his building desperation. Each time he would ask how much longer, and I would just remind him how important this was to him making the team. When it got to the point that even slightly touching his boner caused pre-orgasmic reaction, I knew our exam was coming to an end. I explained it was time to collect the sample, and I held a small cup near the head of his cock. I told him only to concentrate on shooting as much as he was able. Then, as he made some damn hot orgasmic shouts, I milked a very impressive load into the cup. From the size of the load and the power behind the squirts, there was no question he would pass the physical...:-) (And yes, I really did this - I know it sounds like porn, lol. I'd love to do it again, too...)

Big guns are great - and I've mentioned my love for baseball players out here before...:-) But small guns can be sexy too - the humility of a guy with just a hint of a build who might even blush at the thought of flexing his arms and letting me feel what he has - THAT turns me on too...:-)

RE: Armpits & Basketball > Yes, I love watching BB to see guy's pits. BTW, have you >ever noticed Coach Billy Donovan's ultra-sweaty pits? Do you >know which BB players have B.O.? :-) I would unfortunately assume that responsible players use plenty of deodorant for a game (and I'd bet the ones that don't probably get asked to), but you never know...:-) Any pics around of Donovan with pits exposed? (A Google search didn't turn up any).

Funny how the mind works... I was on the subway this morning, sitting next to a guy who clearly needed deodorant (by "normal" standards...lol). He wasn't the least bit attractive to me, but there was this guy across the way from me who was just that...just a young "regular guy" type with a cute face...well, I started imagining that I was smelling HIS b.o. intead of the pit odor coming from the guy next to me...instant erection... }( If only the dude I liked had been wearing a tank top...ah, well - one can't have everything... :-)
