The 1980s action movie supplies a bounty of mullets, tank tops, and European bodybuilders trying to form sentences. These movies are also full of gay panic, where being called a “cocksucker” is the worst insult imaginable (besides “commie bastard”). In Lethal Weapon 2, Mel Gibson’s character plans on taking revenge on his enemies by “getting them and fucking them”. Because in this world this is no greater punishment than gay sex! They’re so fixated on gay sex that these movies sometimes miss the homoeroticism writhing right in front of their faces.

We love to hate it for one reason, but over the years it’s become an extension of every gay man’s life, at least in Europe. PlanetRomeo, or GayRomeo as it’s called by everyone but the company itself, the ubiquitous gay hook-up site that’s your first go-to online hub for boy-boy love has been facilitating faggotry for over 12 years. And not just through hook-ups, dating and (eventually) long-term relationships, but as a social network as well. It’s a staple in liberated life, regardless of country or language.

“Why is everybody and their mother making fun of this? It’s not any more bizarre than any other TV commercial for computer games” – I may have added an extra f-bomb or two – and I followed up with: “If this were Beyoncé, it would be ‘iconic’, but since it’s Mariah, it’s ‘bizarre’? I don’t get why everybody seems to hate her all of a sudden. Because Britney got too boring to ridicule?” A short exchange ensued, concluded by my friends with the words: “I will not have a serious discussion with you on the ridiculousness of Mariah Carey.”

As summer movie season comes to a close, it’s time we say goodbye to the superheroes and franchises and say hello to more highbrow fare, like The Danish Girl, which stars Eddie Redmayne as a trailblazing transsexual (there has never been a phrase more highbrow than “Eddie Redmayne as a trailblazing transsexual”). So let’s dive into some of the more notable fall releases and judge them on the following criteria: What’s it about, will people be talking about it, and will it get you off?
And who the hell am I? If you’ve been following the blog at all, you may have wondered out of which horny hole this perverted punk has stepped. I won’t reveal too much – a bit of mystery is sexy, right? But a few things may be in order.
First, I was born in that part of the world that most people think is actually Canada, but it’s not. I was born in Alaska. Who would have thought that place could produce more than oil and Sarah Palin – two decidedly unsexy things.
Second, I’m no stranger to sex on screen. I appeared in two arty porn films with DVD releases: one in San Francisco and one here in Berlin. There may be other footage of me out there, but if so, I don’t know where. And yup, I moved to Berlin from gay ol’ San Francisco, where I learned to be a proper fag and how to be a writer all at the same time.
There’s more from San Francisco coming your way via Dandy Dicks, so stay tuned.
But I left San Francisco. And took my heart with me. Five years now in Berlin and I can’t think of a better place to be. I’ve been making it here as a writer ever since and I’m happy to report there’s no going back.
I think I’ve given you enough of the basics. More you’ll just have to find out either through this blog or a little Google. But I hope with that you stick around Dandy Dicks – for this blog and of course, the boys!
