Lark Ballinger , Seattle, WA
This seems to reference Tom of Finland's loggers.
George Huber , Swarthmore, Penn.
The clothes on these two guys are wet; presumably they have been
frisking around in the water together (how come one of them however has a
dry cigarette in his mouth after all that?). The guy straddling the log
has his legs spread apart, a typical male sexual come-on; his head is at
crotch level of the guy standing behind. The standing guy has a shadow
outlining a nice basket, and he is grasping a pole, a phallic symbol. The
blond is dressed in blue; the brunet is dressed in brown. Opposites
attract. Sure looks gay to me!
