Seriously: Stand Tall! Plan To Vote!

Anticipating the November election day!

My spouse Aaron and I appeal to all for us to come together and to stand tall and united for everyone in order to return decency, equality, fairness, honesty, integrity, legitimacy and genuine concern to the corrupt, degraded, dishonest and deceitful USA government. Midterm elections to the Congress are scheduled for this upcoming November.

Please start planning now to cast your vote in November. The time is needed to enact change and return compassion and dignity to the USA.

Let us all work together to rid ourselves of all the bigots, criminals, and felons from government! We need to restore hope in the hearts, minds and souls of us all!

Together we need to make a difference!

Thank you!

Stand tall and proud!

Before we dissolve ourselves and unravel completely, we need to pause for a moment and look where we are now. A nation, a people: divided and adrift. There is no longer a national example to inspire, to motivate and to persevere in guiding us all to resolve and to share.

The healing and the recovery need to happen and action needs to be soon! In exercising our duty to vote, we can try to make it start in November!

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!

Lock Lips!

It is now what is known to many as the “season of the passion!” The week in the month of February of each year that includes the designated day of the kiss: St. Valentine’s Day! Not officially observed as a public holiday in any country, it is a day recognized by multitudes as a day of bromance (same gender romance) and love!

A day for us to celebrate being together and to enjoy the camaraderie of sharing ourselves with one another and without any fear, guilt or shame!

Not only was the same gender affection and bromance deemed offensive and criminal, the fact of physical interaction between two persons of different races was actually illegal in a total of seventeen (17) states and the District of Columbia.

Prior to SIR, it was considered illegal for two individuals of the same gender to show affection for one another in public. Holding hands was grounds for arrest. Kissing was viewed as degrading, immoral and worse!

Fondling and/or any intimacy with a person of the same gender was seen as indecent and obscene in 49 of the 50 states. Illinois was the “progressive” (permissive) state!

In private clubs and private homes, same gender love was a perversion and those engaging in the activity were publicly ridiculed as known perverts!

The sky offers a natural background for a couple showing their passion as the above men are doing. Such a scene would be considered as pornographic until the Stonewall Inn Riots and the explosion of our movement for the determination and freedom of our right to be same gender loving (SGL)!

As we make plans and preparations to celebrate the St. Valentine’s Day this year, we need to recall the efforts of those who came before us and helped to create the way for our freedom to be ourselves!

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!

Bare By Air!

With wings, we can fly!

Landing in Toronto, Ontario, Canada!

My spouse, Aaron, and I depart one week from today for our western Christmas holiday with his family in Toronto! We’ll be there for exactly one week then return home. Due to this winter excursion (and the possibility of weather interference), there will be only one post entry here for next week: Monday, December 22.

All bare and in the air!

And to eliminate any chance of confusion and/or misunderstanding, neither one of us are angelic!

These images are offered here today in the seasonal spirit of the approaching holiday! We are not “winged” but we do have flight reservations!

Naked hugs!

December Observances!

The abundance of both festive and solemn occasions during the month of December, annually, have caused some controversy within the communities impacted by the events. Some persons are actually offended that not everyone is familiar with their own December event or occasion – as if everyone knows them personally. Our current society is just “egocentric” and unable to understand the concept of “us” and/or “we!”

As indicated above, there are a multitude of events and happenings throughout the world this month. The variety reflects the distinctive and multicultural legacies that we all offer and share with our communities, cultures, friends and neighbours throughout our world.

However joyous we may feel this time of the year, we also need to remember that there are also many, indeed, too many who are suffering through no fault of their own. They are all around us, in our very own neighbourhoods and across oceans.

In both Gaza and The West Bank, The Sudan, the victims of hurricanes in Jamaica and the Caribbean; struggles, suffering and violence that daily affect many and provide no happiness nor joy to multitudes who are located everywhere.

For those of us who are experiencing the “good times” and festivities of the month of December, it also is important for us to especially remember and share with those who are in need. Their predicament is not of their choice or their control. Our responsibility is to share, even just a little, in order to give to them a hope and a reason for living through yet another day.

This concern and this helping of others enables us to extend ourselves and our festive spirit. It empowers us to offer kindness where it is needed most – in the lives of strangers in order for them to feel a part of our joy.

Sometimes, a single gesture, a simple good deed affords us more rewards than all the joy combined. The fact that we, as an individual – bare or textile – performed this act is the greatest reward imaginable!

World AIDS Day, 2025!

Traditional World AIDS Day logo!

1 December, annually: World AIDS Day

World AIDS Day, bare practitioner observance!

When it was originally observed, HIV/AIDS was an almost completely fatal diagnosis with countless deaths following varying periods of immense misery and suffering. Since that time, enormous progress has been made in medicine, and the disease is no longer considered synonymous with death. Although there is still no known cure for the virus, there is now hope that one is possible within the foreseeable future.

The virus that causes the condition known as AIDS was first identified in the middle 1980’s decade. For decades, it was considered an exclusive “gay” disease or else a disease of intravenous drug users. This led to excessive discrimination against those two communities. Massive prevention education efforts globally resulted from the stigmas surrounding the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). HIV is the virus that causes AIDS. AIDS is a result of HIV infection. Two basic facts that remain true, still today.

“It’s not who we are, it’s what we do that puts us all at risk of HIV infection!” ~ Red Cross HIV/AIDS Prevention Education curriculum ~

The above quote appeared in the numerous versions of the Red Cross HIV/AIDS prevention education curriculum. This essential fact was vital in combatting the bias against certain persons and communities.

What Is World AIDS Day?

“World AIDS Day is a global movement to unite people in the fight against HIV and AIDS. Since 1988, communities have stood together on World AIDS Day to show strength and solidarity against HIV stigma and to remember lives lost.”

“In the UK, more than 105,000 people are living with HIV. Globally, an estimated 38 million people live with the virus. More than 35 million people have died of HIV or AIDS related illnesses over the past 40 years, making it one of the most destructive pandemics in history.”

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

The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) weakens the body’s immune defenses by destroying CD4 (T cell) lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell that usually guards the body from bacteria, viruses and other germs. With a severely compromised immune system, the body is unable to protect us against unwanted diseases, infections and illnesses.

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

World AIDS Day 2025 Theme:

“Overcoming disruption, transforming the AIDS response.”

Focus on the need to renew the international commitment to addressing HIV/AIDS challenges globally. These challenges often include numerous aspects of our lives, such as social, political, religious, educational, economic, personal and/or public. The situations may vary but unfortunately the causes frequently remain the same: bias and discrimination. Prejudices are “learned” behaviours that are based primarily on fear and ignorance.

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

Designation Clarifications:

To refresh one’s memory of the status determinations applied for HIV/AIDS.

HIV Negative (HIV-): means that one has tested negative for the human immunodeficiency virus HIV. After the initial testing, the counselor administering the test will recommend a repeat test to confirm the results.

HIV Positive (HIV+): means that one has the human immunodeficiency virus HIV. A counselor will discuss the test results and provide information regarding services available.

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

The Beginning of World AIDS Day

World AIDS Day (also known as World HIV Day) was initially conceived by James W. Bunn and Thomas Netter, two public information officials for the Global Programme on AIDS at the World Health Organization (WHO) in Geneva, Switzerland. They jointly introduced the idea and concept to Dr. Jonathan Mann, Director of the Global Programme on AIDS (now known as UNAIDS) in August, 1987. Dr. Mann liked the idea, approved it and the date of 1 December 1988 was selected as the initial observance.

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

The Red Ribbon Campaign:

The awareness ribbon strategy was adopted within a few years of the World AIDS Day commemorations. The Red Ribbon Campaign received immediate international recognition. The campaign soon expanded beyond just the World AIDS Day occasion and the red awareness ribbon became synonymous with HIV/AIDS awareness. The red awareness ribbon continues to designate HIV/AIDS awareness as well as knowledge of the disease, the prevention of infection and compassion to persons living with HIV.

The colour of red is noted as representing “life.” This was a deciding factor in choosing the design of the HIV/AIDS awareness ribbon and campaign.

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

The Condom:

The use of a latex condom remains, even today, as the most effective tool in preventing the transmission (spreading) of HIV during sexual engagement. With all the advancements in prevention strategies and treatments, a latex condom is an essential element in stopping the spread of HIV during sex.

Allergic to latex? Not a problem. Consult your physician, pharmacist or trusted HIV counselor.

Footnote #1: The colour of the condom pictured above is red. Please understand that the colour of a condom has no determining value in the protection offered.

Summary:

HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, is today a very manageable and treatable infection that no longer imposes the outcome of suffering and death it originally produced. With the medicines and treatment strategies currently available worldwide, persons infected with HIV (HIV+) are now able to enjoy long and productive lives while undergoing care and/ora treatment programme.

A gentle reminder that at this time, there exists no known cure for HIV. However, testing, knowing one’s HIV status and receiving care and treatment options if HIV+ permit many unlimited hopes for a full life!

Anticipation: Our Return!

“Anticipation: preparation selfie-time!”

Author’s Notification:

Of course, we all know that there are no public transportation airlines that will permit us to fly clothes free! There may be some private flights that allow clothes freedom, however, the price for that service is not something that my spouse, Aaron, and I are willing to pay. So, we’ll just continue to dream of that possibility! And until that dream becomes real, we have no choice except fly textile!

Actually, our flight back to the USA is scheduled for Thursday, 20 November. I needed a post for Friday, so I published this date instead. I didn’t want to offer more confusion than necessary! Aaron, my spouse, has a training seminar he is offering at his hospital on Sunday and Monday. Afterwards, we depart for a brief visit to his parents in Toronto. They were both very supportive with mother during their stay with our family and we both feel the need to visit them in appreciation!

The weather seriously impacts our travel north into Canada during the winter. Besides, his parents own a home near Tampa, Florida, and they enjoy their winter days there with relief from the frigid cold! Their hesitation in an invitation to come and stay with them while they’re there? They know of our dislike of anything cold and they fear we just may move in with them! LOL!

The publication dates for next week are Tuesday, 25 November for the USA: Thanksgiving! post entry and Sunday, 30 November for the monthly Bottoms-Up! November, 2025! posting. The annual World AIDS Day post entry publishes on World AIDS Day, 1 December.

Bare Celebrity Role Models, #2!

Why SGL Adult Film Actors Illustrate ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers!

Prologue:

One of the major purposes/reasons that my spouse, Aaron, and I launched this site, ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! was to create, designate and offer a safe space (blog) where same gender loving – SGL – persons who enjoy nakedness (clothes freedom) could experience, feel, identify and sincerely be themselves. One obvious tool of sharing a receptive and welcoming atmosphere is to offer a comfortable environment where our nakedness and our sexuality is the common bond that enables us all to relate to “home.”

The “header” image (above) proves that our life philosophy as bare practitioners (bisexual or gay naturists/nudists) is definitely not a recent phenomenon (occurrence). From the hairstyles of the subjects, the vintage picture posted above is from the late 1950s/early 1960s. We were actually around before the Stonewall Inn riots (SIR) took place in 1969!

The obvious message from the header is that we’re SGL and we’re clothes free! Not only “back-in-the-day” when the picture was photographed. The .gif image below reinforces the fact that we’re still the same today!

Introduction:

In an effort to provide a comfortable, familiar and relaxing space for our fellow bare practitioners, Aaron and I believe that we should illustrate and represent us with what and who we truly are: our bodies and ourselves! In order to accomplish this task, we feature depictions of us – SGL nakedness – without any embarrassment, guilt or shame. As stated in the first posting entry of this series, we don’t feature engaging in our physical intimacy, but we do honour our awareness of our same gender anatomy and our same gender attractions.

Our being honest does not demand us being evasive. Only the truth will set us all free!

Purpose:

One concern/issue that is often posed is why publish photos of professional adult actors here? Are we recruiting future “gay porn stars?” Are we “promoting pornography?” Are we endorsing a career?

No! We are not endorsing, promoting nor recruiting for the SGL adult film industry studios nor are we encouraging sexual behaviour. The photographic illustrations accompanying this post entry here show the aspect of truth. As bisexual or gay, the male penis for many of us is an anatomical reality of interest – curiosity and wonder. We accept that fact and then we move on.

Acknowledging what we know and facing that challenge is a valid component of what and who we are is, in our opinion, better than ignoring it and pretending it goes away!

We developed this site in the hope that we all, as bare practitioners, experience a dream where we just simply celebrate in a place that allowed us, as a community and as a culture, to just be ourselves! A haven of happiness, harmony and hope!

Footnote #1: In at least one (1) of the future post entries developed for this Bare Celebrities series here on ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! there will be another focus offered on the penis. That will be apparent for all when it is published. The reason for the inclusion of these images and the introduction of the penis anatomical topic at this phase of the series publication may necessitate this notation and reminder of this fact here at this time.

Justifications:

Probably one of the major essentials of being a successful and sought after SGL adult film industry “super-star” (extraordinary performer) is confidence and pride being publicly identified and recognized as a bisexual or gay man and extreme acceptance and comfort in nakedness (without clothing) – especially in being the only person fully nude in a studio full of support staff, all of whom are completely dressed!

In order to perform in an SGL adult film career, embarrassment, guilty, excessive modesty and/or shame is not compatible! Essentially, one is awarded a role that requires simply two simple talents: nudity and sex.

The professional actors who excel in this very specific industry, hired as such my executives who crave (desire) the action depicted and who emotionally and financially depend on the financial rewards afforded by this type of employment.

As performers in this industry, their male anatomy (penis) is one of their job assets and responsibilities. Due to it being an absolute necessity for employment, the professional actor has no obsessive or underlying need to be constantly or excessively flamboyant about their possession of this particular attribute nor are they driven to flaunt it endlessly.

Contemplating today’s post entry!

For this reason, professionals are ideal subjects for “photo-shoots” (photography sessions) – posing – where their erection (excited anatomy) is not the featured or focused object/subject. This allows them the ability to take one proverbial step away from their job essential status and become their natural, “playful” and relaxed self all with their preferred nakedness and in an environment accepting of their SGL attraction.

The result of this situation is the plethora of pictures created by professional photographers (paid by the studios) featuring the casual and playful actors in various situations not requiring their erections at full potential! A totally different promotional picture session than the routine!

The engagement of those who are experienced and familiar with the needs and skills of posing as camera subjects offers all viewers with pictures that provide better content and quality. These enhance reality and understanding. They also provide identity and recognition.

The availability of the photos offered is free online and financed by the film industry studios. This access increases the sales of the particular sales of the items offered and this increases the studio’s income (profits)! It benefits everyone involved! Admittedly, Aaron and I both enjoy the ability to view these images although at times it does test patience!

Another, slightly less prominent justification for the use of seasoned performers is that the majority of those are indeed bare practitioners (SGL nakedness) so they instinctively are aware what captures the immediate attention of those of similar identification. They also know what information persons seek and where these interests proceed. So the professionals, in order to both increase their audience base and to reward their loyalty are more than happy to at least respond to any legitimate request.

Patience, Tolerance and Understanding!

Memories and prayer!

My father died mid-day (11:48 a.m.) on Saturday, 10 November 2018. All of us considerably miss and mourn him, especially our mother. This year, on the anniversary of his death, our family’s church is conducting a community Memorial Service as a tribute to his life.

Mother has requested Alex (my identical twin) and I to be present along with all our family and the local population. Alex and I depart later this same day for our return to Greece. My university has officially sanctioned my instructional absence. Aaron, my spouse, and his parents leave the later part of the week to join with us.

She has also scheduled some time for my seven (7) brothers and I to decide and determine some familial issues that will have to be addressed and resolved eventually. Her preference is to be an active participant in these matters. My siblings and I agree to honour her wishes.

At this time, I assure everyone that mother’s health is fine, at least physically. Emotionally and mentally, she mourns for our father. I accept, respect and understand her reality.

I have composed and submitted a number of post entries for publication here on ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! during our absence.

I ask for your patience, tolerance and understanding as Aaron and I respect my mother and offer our tribute to my father’s memory.

Naked hugs!
