However, even with a good harvest and strong sales, the majority of households won’t earn a living income, meaning they can’t afford decent housing, food, education for children, and other basic expenses.Ī decent standard of living is a human right. A remembrance of favorite pornstars of time past, it is exciting to see stars like Mark Dalton, Billy Herrington, Matthew Rush, Jim Slade, Jason Adonis, Vin Marco, Anthony Gallo all once being printed Coverboys.Jon Walker, Senior Advisor for Cocoa, Fairtrade InternationalĬocoa farmers in West Africa are now in the middle of the main harvest season.
The glossy magazine is now a relic but it was great to know there once was a time when, besides the classic VHS and DVD, gay porn mags provided endless hours of fun to their readers. One could only wonder how that Veteran came to acquire over 500+ magazines that included issues from Freshmen, Honcho, Instinct, Stallion, Bear, Colt Men, Unzipped, and more. It was interesting to note the items belonged to a Veteran a man who Mega_Zines learned had fought in wars and had endured some tough times for being gay in the military. Upon receiving the confirmation that everything had to be sold, Mega_Zines quickly claimed most, if not the whole lot as part of his new private collection.
And he knew he had to keep the hoard to himself. After ripping open a bag and dropping a magazine out into the floor, Mega_Zines instantly knew he had come across a giant collection of vintage gay porn. So, how did Mega_Zines get so lucky to get such a collection of over 500+ magazines? (Yes, 500+) None other than by pure luck! After driving around and coming across a random estate sale, Mega_Zines discovered a backyard with a tool shed that contained boxes and black bags mounted up to the ceiling. Was he an older gentleman who was getting rid of his personal collection, or was he someone who was closing his long-lasting adult shop and bookstore after years of business? Interesting to note, he happened to be a young middle-aged man with an interest in the vintage, the collectible, vintage erotica, and of course, the men gracing the covers of the timeless pieces. Who knows? Maybe I'll find a way for him to sign it after all these years.īefore speaking to Mega_Zines (as I will refer to him for privacy reasons) on the phone, I wondered who the man behind the social media account was. I had the pleasure of buying one magazine off the owner: the September 2001 issue of Torso magazine with none other than Caesar on the cover shown above. I wish I had invested in getting some gay porn mags back in the day so it was exciting to discover Mega_Zines: a Twitter account that is an online shop selling/buying lots of vintage adult Gay and kink mags. “Rags” usually hidden in closets, drawers, and under mattresses that featured real Pornstars who landed covers, held photoshoots with props and set design, and were more interesting to me than any boring cover of People magazine.
#List of vintage gay porn magazines portable
I know we have fully evolved into the streaming age of porn, but it was great to know that there once existed printed magazines as the source of portable enjoyment. One item that unfortunately is now rare to find is good ol’ printed gay porn mags. It's no surprise to say that I have always been invested in porn, but even during the time of my sexual awakening, I always knew it was a business and ever-changing industry.
