George, Again - A Follow-Up
Our boy George is back in the news again, and no, I don't mean THAT George in the White House, but George Michael. Flamer,gay boy adventurer, trouble-maker. Last time we caught up with George he was getting arrested (again) for soliciting sex from a man up on Hampstead Heath. This time George gave another interview in which he extolled the virtues of pot smoking.
See what I mean? He's trouble, and nothing but. My kind of trouble. I am something of a rather steady smoker myself at this point. It helped my appetite immensely after I went through my ruptured aneurysm period and all the follow-up surgeries that pretty much gutted my appetite for food.
So I can relate to George's plaintive wail, which he gave in an interview this past week. As George puffed away in the presence of his interviewer, he pronounced himself wonderfully pleased that he had discovered pot.
It keeps me "sane and happy," says George.
What's not to love about this guy? He loves the scrambled brain effect too that comes with pot smoking. Personally it also ushers in for me probably the most creative moments of my day. George is out there in every sense of the word, and the world's cutting censorship does not phase him one iota.
My only regret, again, is that he is sexual nearly exclusively with males, it sounds like. Boo hoo. How many times in my life have I been disappointed, not to say annoyed mightily, that an attractive male is off-limits to me because he is totally gay?
Do you suppose there may be females out there like him? Who defend their private life vigorously and don't care if it spills over a bit into the public arena? I like to think so.
It gives me hope. Go George!

Why is it that so many attractive males are gay? Is it that the ideal we celebrate for masculine beauty is that gay-thing inherited from Greek culture (we all know about Plato saying that true philosophy begins with the love of young boys). Are we conditioned to think that sexually-ambiguous pretty boys are hot?
In any case, there's no chance of me being mistaken for a gay blade.

Good old Plato, he knew it all starts with a good young boy! Yes, maybe we are entering an era of wider acceptance of pretty boys. But on the other hand, we have some very pretty boys in tennis right now, but they are all wearing these horrible ugly baggy clothes, so what's the point in having pretty boys if we can't show them off in proper garb? Still, I guess we are making progress. The more women are perceived as liking pretty men, and wanting to see more, we might just get it. Especially if it can be proved that prettiness sells.
But there's probably always room for the NonGayBlades, no?
