Ms. Unknown Discovered!

Elizabeth Jennings Graham (1895)

Elizabeth Jennings Graham was born Elizabeth Jennings in New York City in March 1827 (date unknown). She was destined to become a teacher, an early civil rights activist and organist at her church. By 1854, she was a teacher at the private African Free School.

By the 1850s, the horse-drawn streetcar on rails was a common transportation option in New York City. They were operated by private companies and their access was often barred by race.

On Sunday, 16 July 1854, Elizabeth Jennings was going to work as organist for the First Coloured Congregational Church. She boarded a streetcar of the Third Avenue Railroad Company. The conductor ordered her off. She refused and the conductor and a police officer ejected her off the streetcar. She was injured and her clothes were soiled and torn.

The incident was reported by Frederick Douglass in his newspaper and resulted in an organized movement by Black New York City residents to end racial discrimination on streetcars.

Her father filed a lawsuit against the Third Avenue Railroad Company and the conductor in Brooklyn, where the company office was located. She was represented by the law firm of Culver, Parker and Arthur. Her case was argued by the firm’s 24 year-old junior partner, Chester A. Arthur, a future president of the USA. He filed the suit in 1854 and in 1855, the court ruled in her favour.

The judge, William Rockwell, determined “Coloured persons if sober, well-behaved and free from disease, had the same rights as others and could neither be excluded by any rules of the company, nor by force nor violence.” The jury awarded Jennings damages in the amount of $250 (roughly equivalent to approximately $8,400 currently). The very next day, the Third Avenue Railroad Company ordered all of their streetcars desegregated.

A century before Rosa Parks gained fame in refusing to move to the back of the bus, Elizabeth Jennings Graham attained justice in fighting for her rights on transportation. What happened in Brooklyn, New York City, occurred before the US Civil War ended the practice of slavery in the USA!

Nice job, Elizabeth Jennings Graham!

Naked hugs!

SGL + SNL = Bare Soul!

Race Cooper!

Title Explanation:

SGL, as repeatedly referenced here, is the anacronym for same gender love (bisexual or gay). SNL represents the popular USA television series: Saturday Night Live, a show that forcefully, hilariously and magnanimously ridicules and rebuffed the sorry state of affairs of American culture: actions, attitudes, beliefs, concepts, prejudices and values. Race Cooper confidently, defiantly and proudly does the same here for ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers!

Race Cooper: Our Man:

Race Cooper (left) kissing co-star, Shay Michaels!

Prelude:

“Canadian-to-his-core (soul)!” is an ideal description of loyalist Race Cooper, now retired SGL and nakedness adult film industry role model and star. Race Cooper is his professional (stage) name, his birth and legal name is Joseph Ross Anderson. He was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on 5 December 1973. He received his introduction into the US gay adult film industry as a casting director at the studio office and worked diligently for a number of years. Then, in 2009, at the tender age of 36 years old, he performed his first role in front of the camera and graciously offered his buttocks to the world!

While pursuing his growing popularity while acting, he simultaneously became an advocate for film actors regarding studio executives, management and film investors concerning gross racial and ethnic disparities in practices, roles, pay scale and other matters. In his time working at the studio, he observed discrimination and marginalization against Blacks, Hispanics and surprising, fellow gay employees!

The purpose of reminding everyone of the dire need of review of the discriminatory protocols some of our same gender loving (SGL) and nakedness cohorts in the adult film industry allow, through the observations of “industry insider” Race Cooper (one of our own community and culture) is that before we point fingers outward, we all need to look inward and ensure that we are on the platform of equality, freedom and justice. Our need for respect and understanding enables us to search for accountability and truth everywhere – even among ourselves!

We need the insight of our fellow bare practitioner, bare celebrity Race Cooper, to lead us from the darkness and into the light!

“Racism and discrimination take many forms and our focus and thoughts on racism, sexuality and nudity need to change.” ~ Joseph Ross Anderson (Race Cooper) The Pink News SGL News Service, London, UK, 10 June 2020

Race Cooper, interviewing for The Pink News, London, UK 10 June 2020

Footnote: Race could not appear fully nude for his interview. Instead, he conducted the session shirtless, as close to nakedness as possible!

The examination and exploration of the topic of “race” extends beyond the limited concepts of of just Black people and White people. It includes all of us, no matter our skin tone, ethnicity, or racial heritage. “Race,” unfortunately, is also aligned with community, culture, politics, religion and value systems.

Regrettably, racism (racial bigotry and/or hatred) is a “learned” (taught) behaviour passed from one generation to the next – often without any basis of proof or scientific fact. Unchallenged, it is frequently misunderstood as the “norm” (normal) – the regular routine standard.

My spouse, Aaron, and I both offer this posting in the hope of overcoming our need to be reminded of the importance of fact and reality in our lives.

Race Cooper, The Pink News

Introduction:

Joseph R. Anderson (Race Cooper) didn’t begin his film career until 2009 at the tender age of 36 years! An age when most openly bisexual or gay porn film actors are ready to retire from performing live! His acting career spanned a total of five years. He retired from the industry in 2014.

In the same year that he started live acting, after years in the studio’s casting office, Race started publicly blogging on blogger.com, promoting his acting career and sharing information about fellow porn stars and their preferences. He swiftly acquired notoriety as “a-man-who-tells-it-all!” He also began to encourage and endorse the expansion of the “alpha” (top-man) and the “beta” (bottom-man) SGL identities to include “versatility” (both traditional SGL sexual positions)!

Race Cooper: “the-man-who-tells-it-all!”

Vital Statistics:

Height: 6′ (183 cm)

Weight: 180 lbs. (82 kg)

Hair: head – shaved; body – armpit, pubic

Penis: 8″ (20 cm) circumcised

Sexuality: gay

Sexual position: versatile (preference: beta (bottom-man)

Clothing status: bare (naked,nude)

Porn Career: Mid-level management (casting); live (2009-2014)

Race Cooper: publicity pose (frontal)

“I’m an African-Canadian. Growing up in Toronto, I got to see how lots of White Americans reacted to Black people, from Canada or the USA. Working in gay pornography, I personally saw how Black men were treated by White men with no difference between gay or straight.” ~ Race Cooper ~ The Pink News 10 June 2020

Race, based on his own experience, views racism as “a daily constant in the USA.” He acknowledges that he – at first – was paid considerably less than his Caucasian colleagues and regularly and repeatedly had his work ethic and intelligence questioned. He honestly believes that he was only hired initially in order for the studios to appear “less racist.”

“Homophobia and racism in the USA is the reasoning for discrimination and prejudice. It is part of the legacy of institutionalized slavery. In Canada, race is just a difference. You shave your pubic hair, I let mine grow naturally. We’re both gay men, we’re just different in some ways.” ~ Race Cooper ~ The Pink News 10 June 2020

Canada had slavery in the 1600s only. It was never a permanent social institution like in the USA. As a slave, you were bought, you worked a couple of years, earned your freedom and then you moved on. Like an indentured servant. Enslavement was never a source of distrust, mistreatment and hatred. You worked, earned freedom and then became a neighbour – equal -not inferiour or subserviant.

Race Cooper: another movie pose!

“As a Black gay man, I know and have witnessed bias, hatred and prejudice because of nakedness, race and sexual orientation. It is unfair and unjust. It is wrong. As a performer in the porn industry, I’ve never experienced criticism for being publicly or for being socially naked. But I do know of fellow nudists who are judged because of their nudity. Clothes freedom is part of who we are. Just like race and sexuality, we don’t have a choice.” ~ Race Cooper ~ The Pink News 10 June 2020

Race was interviewed by The Pink News, a SGL news service in London, England, United Kingdom on 10 June 2020 for his views on racial inequality in the bisexual or gay film profession in light of the killing of the late George Floyd in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA and the resurgence of the Black Lives Matter movement. He also wants the porn industry to openly admit that many White men – straight – have been cast into roles catering to SGL African-American audiences instead of actual Black gay men.

As a path forward, he’d like to see studios hire “diversity mentors” to help with casting and hopefully these mentors could advance the careers of porn actorsof colour. He also advocates the ending of “gay-for-pay” and an immediate end to the shunning of HIV+ porn actors.

All of us welcome and embrace Race in full nakedness as a man of our community and culture! His attitude that true equality is a basic human right for us all is one we can all agree!

Our man who reveals all: Race Cooper!

Thank you, Race, for your honesty and integrity!

Naked hugs!

Bare Celebrities # 6: Identity!

Felipe Ferreira and his “Pride” tattoo!

Alternate Title:

Identity/Perception!

The purpose of our “Bare Celebrities” series!

Background/Introduction:

We, as humans, (and I use that term very generally in these chaotic times) self-identify ourselves in a variety of manners/ways. One of the many reasons for this practice is to remind both others and ourselves as to what we are about – the essence as to what and who we truly are)! What is important to us? Why? Basically, is this me?

As bare practitioners (same gender loving – SGL – nakedness enthusiasts) there are numerous options available for the expression and revelation of ourselves. Among these are the ones we prefer that incorporate our clothes freedom opportunities (nakedness) such as body painting and/or tattooing. Body painting is washable, tattooing is more permanent or eternal.

Tattoo!

Tattoo #1: Pride

Our post entry header (above top) is Brazilian model/gay adult film industry actor/ and DJ Felipe Ferreira discretely posing with his throat tattoo: pride announcing his confidence in being both SGL (gay) and nude! The .gif image (directly above) is Felipe (now matured somewhat) specifically showing muscular development and the upper boundary of his pubic hairline.

Below, he models his commando (underwear freedom) preference in a selfie that publicly proves he indeed has a penis!

Felipe and groomed (shaved) pubic hair!

Footnote # 1: As Felipe has grown in his professional exposure, so has his comfort on revealing his genitalia!

Below, with fellow gay adult film industry actor, Rhyheim Shabazz, he is openly sharing both his nakedness and his sexuality!

Felipe (left) and Rhyheim (right)!

Footnote #2: Partnered with Felipe, our man Rhyheim never had his preference for nakedness nor his sexuality ever doubted or questioned. However, he was almost always never discrete over either trait!

Felipe and Rhyheim share a bed together!

Tattoo #2: Unashamed

Reign: Unashamed!

A former U.S. Navy volunteer and a recent newcomer to the SGL adult film industry, Reign proudly proclaims his bromantic (exclusive male sexual preference) and his nakedness by having the label unashamed tattooed just above his pubic hairline! His confidence in himself is readily available for all to understand whether he is posing nude or shirtless wearing a swim suit (below)!

Unashamed still visible!

Often criticized for his ornately tattooed chest and torso, Reign has no regrets nor suffers shame revealing his true self and his availability and his masculinity! He also proudly maintains his natural body hair (armpit and pubic).

Reign: sailor with underarm fur!

Reign served in the navy when then-President Obama officially ended the ban on SGL persons openly serving in the U.S. military.

Under contract with Raging Stallion Studios since 2020, Reign made no secret of his desire, preference and his willingness to perform in beta positions (bottom) roles on screen. He has trouble understanding why professional actors have issues with appearing in the “receiving” roles when filming scenes.

“I really enjoy being a bottom-man and I enjoy being versatile. To be truthful, I really enjoy sex and am happy have that as my job! Giving (alpha) or receiving (beta), it makes no difference to me!” ~ Reign ~ Raging Stallion Studios interview 2022

Reign: full exposure!

In the above image, Reign unveils his true confidence and pride! He is both appreciative and grateful for his penis and has no plans to adorn it with any ink (tattoo)! At least, not in the immediate future!

Tattoo #3: Bad Ass

The above tattoo probably needs no further explanation as to exactly what the owner is meaning. Looking closely, the anatomical region of the tattoo is obvious. But that does pose a question: Is the owner seeking a “bad ass” or is the tattoo a means of the owner proclaiming himself a “bad ass?”

Tattoo #4: Lust/Love

Ron Derrick Johnson and his tattoos!

Announcing to all his dedication to his personal as well as professional quest for both his same gender loving (SGL) and his clothes freedom status, openly bisexual Ron Derrick Johnson of the SGL adult film industry boldly has two tattoos inked on the front of his body: lust and eros (Greek: love). For Ron, “lust” is his search for both affection and attention. “Eros” is the name of the ancient Greek god of love and sexual desire.

Ron Derrick Johnson: nakedness!

Ron Derrick Johnson is indeed fortunate that his appearance, physique, and his tattoos compliment his message! No confusion or miscommunication concerns here! A man of international pleasure and repute, he has “eros” (love) written in Greek on his abdomen!

Tattoo #5: Faith

Kory Mitchell: frontal tattoos!

SGL film industry star, Kory Mitchell, also known early in his career as Kory Kong, is widely recognized as an advocate within the industry for HIV/AIDS awareness and prevention and for his strong Christian faith. He has a cross inked on his front torso (just below his left nipple) to remind his fans of his faith.

Kory Mitchell: neck and shoulder tattoos!

As a reminder to his fans of his strong religious devotion, Kory has “blessed” mounted upon his shoulder. To emphasize his HIV+ status and his commitment to HIV/AIDS education and prevention, he has “hope” inked on his neck with a red awareness ribbon featured as the letter “o.” Excellent educational and inspirational tools!

Body Painting!

Body Painting

Body painting decorates our “natural” canvas – our bare skin! As bare practitioners, this option is one that many of us consider as a normal aspect of our existence within our community and culture! It is also used to visually deliver a message, usually one related to our nakedness!

In the above image, a City of London World Naked Bike Ride (WNBR) participant proudly displays his adherence to the WNBR protocol as well as his identity as a bold and confident member of the GLBTQ+ community with his Progress Rainbow flag painted on his chest!

Above, his body painted message is plain and the meaning is obvious. All that needs to be done is comply and both will be content and happy! “Kiss Me! I’m Naked!” His service to bring joy into all the world!

Body painting their political messages across their chests and torsos are how these young men promote their causes they feel worth all their efforts. In their eyes and minds, their nakedness enhances the statements.

“I love you!” the American Sign Language manual signed communication!

The image above not only has the subject’s body painted in the colourful hands featuring that sentiment, but it also has his left hand creating the statement. In American Sign Language (ASL), signs are made using whichever hand the person is most comfortable, left or right.

Body painted wildlife!

Some body painting is both creative, imaginative and original in adorning the anatomy capturing the attention and the eyes of the observer!

Conclusive Summary:

The outline for this post entry here today was to present the bare celebrity role models and their infamous tattoos only. Those alone are sufficient evidence of the self-image of the inked performer, and the vitality of the concepts of SGL and nakedness have in their lives and in their livelihoods (profession).

Aaron, my spouse, conceived and developed the idea of adding the body painting segment. His justification being that the creativity in the art and messaging warranted their inclusion. Also, the colourful body paint offered a contrast to the monotony of the tattoo ink!

And finally, proof that we haven’t totally forgotten the occasion, all the best wishes for a happy and safe “heart day” to each of you! Enjoy the creation of the late gay artist, Keith Haring!

Happy St. Valentine’s Day, 2026!

Naked hugs!

A Penny For My Thoughts!

“The penny is now removed as valid currency, but honesty and sincerity remain valid and vital to the foundation of the bare practitioner community and culture!”

If we’re unable to be our true selves, how can we expect others to be truthful with us?

Author’s Note: The next post entry is planned for tomorrow, Saturday, January 31, 2026, and the proposed topic is: “Bottoms-Up! January, 2026!”

Annual Examination! One Look!

Background:

Visually, I captured your attention with either the title of this post entry or with the header (opening picture) posted above. Don’t worry, I have given this posting here on NeNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! much forethought and even have an alternate header identified and am sharing it with you below:

Perhaps it is the use of both header images combined with the title that piqued your curiosity? Truthfully, it doesn’t matter at this point because you’re here and you’re reading, therefore, mission accomplished! On second thought, maybe it is the reality that today is a Friday and you habitually visit here on Mondays and Fridays to explore the current posting.

Excuse the soon upcoming pun (word play)! The naked truth of this post entry is that you’re here, I’m composing and Aaron, my spouse, is selecting pictures to illustrate the message! Plus, another weekend is almost upon us!

Introduction:

The questions (implied and/or real) are endless! Why the annual examination? Is something seriously wrong? Why the flowers under the penis? Did that anatomical organ win an award? What’s happening here? Are Aaron and Roger PUI (publishing under the influence)?

The topic we’re addressing here today is: penis – the primary feature of the male anatomy! Hopefully, nothing is physically wrong. The annual examination was the chosen title because it seems as though this subject matter – penis – needs to be explored/featured every year!

Depending on an individual’s cultural and/or personal affiliation, the penis is an object/organ of either confidence/pride or one of guilt/shame. The reasoning for this discrepancy varies among all of us and is not relevant to the specific purpose of this subject at this time.

As to the floral arrangement and the penis? No! The did not win an award or recognition although there are millions of men among us – bisexual, heterosexual and same gender loving (SGL) exclusives – who honestly believe their penis deserves an award! The giving of flowers to the penis could be an expression of gratitude for a service given or a mission fulfilled. The options for the reason are as countless and as varied as the strands of pubic hair at the base of the penis!

Footnote #1: We can explore that topic in a separate post entry!

For today and this particular posting, our focus is on the penis and the relevance to ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! As to the annual need to be repetitive on this matter, I accept my responsibility here. In retrospect, I could and should have been more detailed and thorough in presenting this topic and in the information shared. I apologize for my failure to do so!

Not wasting any valuable time, let us commence our examination of the penis!

The Penis:

By definition, it is “the male organ of copulation in higher vertebrates and usually of urinary excretion in mammals” and/or “any of various copulatory organs in males of lower animals.”

Footnote #2: Second College Edition, The American Heritage Dictionary, Houghton Mifflin Company, Boston, Massachusetts

Basically, the penis is the human male anatomical feature for reproduction (sexual gratification) and for urine elimination. Relief and satisfaction as well as gender identification! So much information contained between two legs!

It is a constructive, essential and functional part of our body. It enables us to be the what and the who we truly are! We should all be accepting and appreciative of our penis! As bare practitioners, we especially admire and desire the penis! It is an anatomical feature of confidence and pride – not one of embarrassment, guilt, humiliation and/or shame!

Depending on our personal body and clothes freedom status, the penis is either concealed or exposed!

We encourage and endorse all of us to both respect and support the human right of each person to determine their own clothing status and their compliance with the law. Each person makes their own choice for themselves. We don’t have to agree with their decision, but we recognize their freedom to determine.

Considerations:

In the attached .gif images, the now retired openly gay adult film industry actor, Francois Sagat, has made his choice, as a bare practitioner, to undertake his fitness routine within the comfort of his nakedness. While doing so, he encounters another man along a stretch of deserted beach who happens to be textile (clothed) – his choice the opposite of Francois.

At this point, Francois – completely nude with no covering available – now has an audience, as does his totally exposed penis: flaccid, free and visible! Another man – totally textile! Sleeveless shirt and shorts, appropriate beach-ware!

In the encounter, neither man reacts to the other. Francois doesn’t even attempt to conceal his penis using his hand and the clothed man just remains seated along the beach, observing Francois yet not reacting to his obvious nakedness.

Neither man visibly interacts with the other. No wave of the hand nor a nod of the head. Not a frown, not even a judgmental stare. Francois Sagat does give a single stretch to his penis while his back is facing his covered audience and that is the extent of interaction between the two men.

Of course, we have no means to know the mental imaginings of bare practitioner Sagat and his “modest” accomplice! As his concealed audience he could possibly be imagining stripping off his clothing and dynamically exploring the beach with the other! Francois could maybe be dreaming the exact same situation. Numerous options are available to ponder – including those that may involve both judgment and/or violence.

Conclusion:

The intent and purpose of this post entry here today is to afford and offer to all a brief introductory examination of the penis and the role it presents to both our bare practitioner community and culture and to the textile community and culture. Part of this introductory examination includes the value that mutual recognition, respect and support offer to all of us, despite our differences in our engagement of nakedness.

The currently retired and openly gay Canadian bare practitioner film star, Race Cooper (birth name: Joseph Ross Anderson – pictured above) actively worked as an actor in the USA gay adult porn industry from 2009 – 2014. Prior to working in front of the camara, he worked “behind-the-scenes” at the film studio producing those films. He offered the following quote on homophobia and racism in the USA gay porn studios in an interview with The Pink News, London, England, U.K. on 10 June 2020.

“Homophobia and racism in the USA is the reasoning for discrimination and prejudice. It is part of the legacy of slavery. In Canada, race is just a difference. You shave your pubic hair, I let mine grow naturally. We’re both gay men, we’re just different in some ways.” ~ Race Cooper ~ The Pink News 10 June 2020

Pubic hair is relevant to the penis? Yes! But that is not the sole reason for including this quote here. Think of the context and message of this post entry! To paraphrase: We’re both SGL men. We both have a penis. I proclaim mine with my nakedness. You hide yours with your clothes. We’re both gay men, we’re just different in some ways.

I must admit that I am impressed with the company that I am allowed to associate. Francois Sagat, Race Cooper and all of you! I need to hire a public relations specialist!

Naked hugs!

Author’s Note: The next post entry here is planned for Monday, January 26, 2026, and the proposed topic is: “Combination!”

Author’s Note #2: With today’s anatomical theme (penis), it would be foolish to offer just one signature image!

Author’s Note #3: I can’t afford to offend any signature because of exclusion! Enjoy! Naked hugs!

*************************

More than a century after the USA Civil War ended the legality of slavery, the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., championed the struggle for equality, freedom, justice and liberty for all Americans in general and for Black Americans in particular. His courage and determination inspired the country and political leaders to reject hatred, marginalization, oppression, prejudice and the suppression of human rights.

As we commemorate and honour the courage and diligence of Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., we offer tribute to all the millions of persons who suffered enslavement, injustice, murder and torture based solely on their origin and their race. Their innocence and sacrifice must never be forgotten!

Background:

Dr. King was born on 15 January 1929. At birth, he was originally named Michael J. King, Jr., the son of his father, Reverend Michael J. King, Sr. and his wife, Alberta Williams King. His father was an ordained clergyman.

After attending a religious conference in Germany in 1934, his father legally changed their names to Martin Luther King as an honor to the anti-Roman Catholic dissident who initiated the protestant movement against the Roman Catholic Church.

After college and seminary, he married Coretta Scott. Together, they produced four children: Yolanda, Martin Luther III, Dexter Scott, and Bernice. Reverend Dr. King, Jr., founded the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) in 1957 and directed the campaign for civil rights and equality until his assassination in 1968.

He organized the National March on Washington for Freedom and Jobs that occurred on Sunday, 28 August 1963. At this event, he delivered the keynote address, his world famous I Have A Dream speech. More than 120,000 people attended this gathering. At that time, it was the largest political rally ever held on the National Mall.

He was assassinated on 4 April 1968 and buried following a state funeral on 7 April 1968.

Honours:

He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize by His Majesty, the late King Gustaf VI Adolph of Sweden on 14 October 1964.

Bare Celebrity Role Model #5: Happy Birthday!

Sean Xavier born Kyle Overton!

Prologue:

Here on ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! we are publishing a series of post entries dealing with various aspects of bare celebrity role models. When we are composing an entry on the date of an actual birthday of an authentic bare practitioner whom we find impressive on the screen, why let the opportunity pass unnoticed? Such is the situation today for honouring the superlative Sean Xavier!

His career name (stage name) is Sean Xavier. In the extremely unlikely event that you don’t recognize him, we’ll continue with a casual introductory listing of his vital statistics in order for us all to celebrate his birthday (today)!

Sean Xavier Vital Statistics:

Birth Name: Kyle Overton

Birth Date: January 16, 1988

Birthplace: Victorville, California, USA

Height: 6’0″ (183 cm)

Weight: 169lbs. (77 kg)

Hair: Black

Eyes: Brown

Penis: Circumcised (cut) 10″ (flaccid/soft)

Body Hair: Armpit, chest, pubic

Sexuality: Exclusively gay

Sexual Position: Versatile

Preferred: Alpha (top)

A youthful Sean Xavier!

A Black man (African-American) in the same gender loving (SGL) adult film trade is nothing new. Sean/Kyle does have a distinguishing advantage over other actors: his prestigious manhood (penis). Even when flaccid (relaxed) it hangs in view for all to admire. His success in the gay adult film industry is in part attributed to his very prominent anatomy! His natural body hair (armpit, chest and pubic) add to his sensual physique!

A couple of personal notations here. My fantasies involving Sean began when I initially encountered the above picture of him proudly posing his nakedness and his very appealing underarm fur. That photo of him inaugurated my desire and fascination with the man! My spouse, Aaron, recalls his fantasy motivation with him beginning with the size and length of his very generous and noticeable penis!

Back then, he was known as Sean XL. Many of us simply assumed the “XL” designation was in reference to his male genitalia. Our man certainly fulfilled the criteria for that determination!

Sean/Kyle offers an exceptional confidence and pride in his nudity. Far too many bisexual and gay men have body shame in being without the latest fashion items concealing them. Our man? Not so! Nothing in the clothing line is best to feature than his very “natural endowment!”

Sean receives a birthday kiss!

Aaron and I, in publishing ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! acknowledge and appreciate the reality that the trait of nakedness is a priority over our same gender loving (SGL) agenda. Both attributes are equal in our lives as bare practitioners, yet the fact that the bisexual or gay components are what attract interest here initially. The SGL feature is enhanced, enriched and expanded by the naturist/nudist curiosity, examination, exploration and understanding.

Sean, our birthday celebrant, also recognizes this truth. People are comprehending the nakedness concept through acceptance of the bisexual or gay determination. Therefore, more emphasis is on body and clothes freedom nature. Our sexual orientation is an important factor yet the primary interest is the nudity.

Sean/Kyle, in his professional capacity – in front of a camera lens – makes no effort to conceal and/or detract from his bare status. If and when possible, he does employ the appearance of any type of garment as a subtle tool of “proclaiming” his being nude!

Sean Xavier on stage!

This initiative strengthens his commercial appeal among his audiences and serves as a prime example for others new to the SGL adult film careers! The bisexual/gay film movie executives finally recognized this ability of Sean’s work. It opened even more doors for professional expansion and resulted in his being viewed as more than just a “porn actor!”

Live on stage!

Sean Xavier did briefly “retire” from the SGL film industry in order to explore several opportunities for alternate work. His retirement lasted less than a year before his major “comeback” (return) was launched! The staged clips (above) were created for one of his theatrical roles.

“Body hair – a little or a lot – is part of being manly. Like our nipples, penis and testicles, it is a part of our anatomy that makes us what and who we are. Bisexual or gay, we know what is good for us!” `~ Sean Xavier ~ gay adult actor

The above picture of Sean/Kyle was taken early in his career. In a notation he added to an interview at the time, he publicly regretted that he had allowed a studio attendant to shave his chest hair. His honesty with the studio policies demonstrates a trait he has exemplified throughout his film performances.

Sean/Kyle: maschalagnia (hairy armpit confidence)!

He is very proud of his underarm fur – and I am, too! For those who are fairly new to ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers!, I openly acknowledge my obsession with this masculine anatomical feature! To be completely truthful, I am always impressed with hirsuteness adorning a man – Sean/Kyle especially!

Serious hirsute pride!

His birthday happens in January but there is absolutely nothing cold about Sean Xavier/Kyle Overton! His fans worldwide agree with me on that observation. Even his serious facial expression is inviting and welcome! He obviously was taught to “do unto others as you would have them do unto you!” An important lesson that someone needs to teach the majority of all of our political leadership!

Now, we can all sit back, devour our slice of birthday cake and watch Sean celebrate being another year older!

Happy Birthday, Sean Xavier/KyleOverton!

Naked hugs!

Bare Friends, TAN, Part 1!

Jay and Roger!

Full Title:

Bare Friends: Truth About Nakedness!

It may not be always accepted and fully appreciated as an absolute truth, but the fact is that the common bond of our mutual nakedness – body and clothes freedom – indeed helps create and encourage friendship! Our relationship – Jay and I -is living proof that reality. We have been the epitome of this philosophy since we first met on Saturday, 3 January, 2009!

In the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, this day was the first “nude happy hour” of the new year. It was also the month of then President-Elect Barack Obama’s initial inauguration; the air was full of excitement and a welcome of change and hope following eight long years of repetition and stagnation under the retreating political administration. All of this accompanied by a balmy day with the outside temperatures into the 70s F: almost unknown for the month of January!

Now, my recollection of everything that happened on the actual date and circumstances related to our beginning our friendship could last forever as we observe this annually. For those who are curious about our meeting and then one week later encountering one another – again – and the both of us failing to recognize one another because we were textile (wearing clothes) that second time, check the two links offered here: Bare Friendships Part 1 and Bare Friendships Part 2 .

Our initial meeting at the SGL social nakedness gathering, there exists a pictorial reminder/souvenir of one of the topics we discussed that day: penis fascination among gay men! Jay had this image sent to him by a friend and then showed it to me. I was intrigued and asked him to forward it to me and he did! I’ve saved it ever since and for a couple of years, it was our “signature” that we shared with one other over emails and/or texting.

Jay and Roger’s first communication “signature!”

The remarkable aspect of this early .gif image is that it is a reminder of simplyhow “normal” bare practitioner close friendships (BPF) can become! We could very well have been mistaken for “wearing clothes!”

Footnote #1: Later that summer – 2009 – when Jay and I took a day trip to a popular “nudist resort” in southern Virginia, we were limited to a day only stay. Virginia, the capital state of the former Confederacy wasn’t as progressive towards interracial friendships despite the fact that President Obama had won here that previous November!

Our “signature” picture had inspired us to attempt to be playful on that day!

Our having two prominent common denominators in our developing relationship (friendship) – being SGL and nakedness enthusiasts – are clearly potent indications of the myths that frequently happen throughout our shared community and culture. Often the assumption was made that we were “lovers” who just “fell” into friendship after our bromantic “coupling” ended.

Nevermind the fact that we have not ever shared any physical intimacy together! We’ve always remained strictly platonic and have enjoyed numerous times of fun and laughter doing so, especially when free without the heavy burden of garments!

The circumstances and the individuals involved determine the evolution path of every relationship, whether platonic or intensely erotic and passionate. There are those “authority” figures who seek to decree and/or mandate how all interactions should happen; yet, we all know that decision is conveniently, easily and often discarded, dismissed and/or ignored repeatedly time and time again!

Phoenix Fellington and friend!

In summary, no specific by-law or rule governs all friendships/bromantic SGL relationships. Guidelines and/or strong recommendations certainly exist, we all know that, but the ultimate decision rests with the persons affected – regardless of their gender/sexual affiliation and whether or not they are wearing clothes!

Footnote #2: I’m flying off to spend some time with Jay and his partner. Raheem. As 3 January this year also happens on a Saturday this year, time to be with Jay and reminisce and recollect on our friendship (very best friendship) anniversary! Perhaps we’ll have time to recapture our imitation of the elephant (penis twirl) again! Raheem can operate the camera!

Naked hugs!

Bare Celebrity Role Models #4: Our Gift!

Bare Celebrity Role Model #4: Our Gift!

Phoenix Fellington: Extraordinary Spokes-model!

The double-header .gifs offered here demonstrate not only Phoenix/Tre’s abilities in rhythm but also his grace and bold comfort with his nakedness. For him, his body is his personal poetry – freely shared for all to admire and to appreciate!

Aaron, my spouse, and I are both impressed by these double .gif images of our remarkable and talented spokes-model. His natural skills prove his knowledge in making both a camera and a photographer work for his full advantage. Amazing talent, Phoenix!

The majority of frequent and regular visitors here – and long-time followers – are aware of this site’s relationship “unofficially” (unpaid) with our infamous and notorious advocate of nakedness, himself an openly gay man and SGL adult film industry super-star, Phoenix Fellington! For all those who are relatively new to this site, below is an offering of Phoenix’s basic statistics.

Birthname: TreLaron Fenderson

Birthplace: Detroit, Michigan, USA

Birthdate: 18 October, 1994

Height: 5’8″ (173 cm)

Weight: 165 lbs. (75 kg)

Body hair: natural (armpit, pubic)

“I love being nude outside!” ~ Phoenix Fellington ~

Our celebrity spokes-model proclaims his preference for being openly body and clothes free where he has the luxury of being himself: nakedness and gay with no one in the way! A true bare practitioner! His quotation above offers a brief yet direct summary of his personal choice for nature while completely natural: a winning combination! In this regard, he does not fall short of his goal. In his bottoms-up! pose, he displays himself as a genuine “treat” on a picnic table in a public park! Enjoy being the man that you truly are, Phoenix!

An expansive and open public park isn’t the only outside location where he enjoys making his nakedness available. A beach scene: sand, sun and surf provide an excellent space for his naturist/nudist “fashion-less” modeling! Our body is a major part of ourselves and is with us everywhere! Why wear clothes and pretend that we don’t care?

Our ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! spokes-model also shares his professional advice and experience with other men seeking a variety of careers within the SGL film industry. In his voluntary role as a professional mentor, he strives to show them the caring, sensitive and upright capacity that they can offer to others like themselves. A firm believer in the “each one, teach one” strategy!

His same gender love (SGL) activism is of equal importance to his advocacy for self-determination of nudity. The private lives of actors within the gay film studios while not performing for a movie scene is their personal business and should not be judged by film industry executives and investors. Their right is to appear, bare or clothed, with whomever they desire. It is not an element of their studio contract. A personal relationship is of individual choice and preference.

The contracts for the SGL films are for each individual film, scene-by-scene, and not for a set length of time. Therefore, the studios and executives have no definitive authority over an actor’s acquaintances, friends or with whom they can or cannot be seen with, nude (especially) or textile.

If Aaron, my spouse. and I wanted to walk along the beach with Phoenix – all three of us in our glorious nakedness – it is strictly our prerogative and is no concern of any studio nor the “busy-body” executives!

No one has “ownership” over anyone in the pornography business. Each person determines their own bare practitioner companions. They are accountable to no one else for their decisions.

The same holds true for our private sexual partners. Our lives are our very own. We can be responsible for ourselves without the interference of others.

In addition to his volunteering as a professional mentor and/or role model for aspiring employees in the bisexual/gay porn industry, Phoenix/Tre also assumed an additional role for himself – as an educator!

“Why do I do gay porn? To teach people how to have sex. Responsibly and safely!” ~ Phoenix Fellington ~ ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! spokes-model ~

A very commendable and ideal intent and purpose! We all salute your good work and caring nature! Empowering, enabling, and ensuring that our bare practitioner community and culture remains competent, consistent and responsible for our place within the GLBTQ+ world!

Naked hugs!

Holiday Ornamentation!

It is that time of the year again – an occasion to decorate and shop, then decorate and shop again, then repeat the entire process over and over again until everything is covered in decorations and ornaments and there is nothing left to buy! Please remember that as bare practitioners, no one has any need for any type of garment!

Actually, some commercial establishments have been decorated for the winter holidays since September! I guess the motivation is to make the purchase now and avoid the massive demand as the holidays approach!

Aaron – we’re spouses – and I are not extravagant decorative artists! Honestly, the only holiday adornment we use in our home is the Nativity icon that I hang in our icon corner in our dining room. In fact, neither of our families have any exceptional winter holiday observance aside from church (his family is Roman Catholic, mine is Greek Orthodox) and our dinner experience.

Therefore, any “holiday spirit” that adorns our lives is shared here, ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! So please don’t expect any winter boxers or briefs to be featured here! We’re strictly bottoms-up!

In maintaining our current bare celebrity role models theme, we’re offering this holiday greetings message from a now defunct SGL adult film studio. The vintage theme is obvious. Any youthful faces recognized? Look carefully and closely!

At last, the serious decorating commences! The tradition of the tree is now published here for 2025! Let the party begin!

Now concluding with an official holiday sentiment accompanied by wrapped gift boxes! Of course, all the celebrities appearing in these festive images are confidently and proudly sporting their complete nakedness! Remember, it is the “season to be jolly!”

Naked hugs!
