Good lookin gay men

Let's talk about gay sex — because even in , misconceptions are seemingly inescapable. Maybe that's because sex between men or women, for that matter is still all but absent from mainstream media. In fact, the Elton John biopic "Rocketman," released in May, is reportedly the first big-budget studio film with a sex scene between two men. Or maybe it's because gay sex that does leach into popular media tends to misrepresent typical sexual encounters — often to an embarrassing extent.

This is particularly true when it comes to dating. Other studies have found that gay men are more attracted to masculine-looking faces and muscular builds.
