I Got My BUTT Calendar
November 3, 2009
They just put out a little teaser on the web, and I was ready to buy the first BUTT calendar when it was available. After a really shitty month, imagine my amazement when finding the large envelope in the mail today! I immediately KNEW what it was and I hadn’t even ordered it yet! It’s a weekly calendar with photos of men from all over the world, and I’ll go ahead and mention the preponderance of nice-looking Latinos. To keep costs down, the paper stock is a little thin, and each page is totally detachable. Week to week, many of the days have gay anniversaries pre-listed for your hip edification. To name just a few, examples include Harvey Milk’s birthday, the day the U.S. Supreme court struck down a Texas Sodomy law (which was in 2003 WTF), the day Tennessee Williams choked, the first day Leigh Bowery went on display all week at a London art gallery, and the final live show of the Germs. From the press release: From almost every corner of the globe, BUTT fans have submitted their most candid and racy photos, which have then been carefully selected and sequenced over 54 weeks. There’s also a handful of bonus portraits by some of the magazine’s marquee contributors like Bruce LaBruce, Alasdair McLellan and Wolfgang Tillmans. Stay tuned at the BUTT Blog for details on how to get your own!
