Bear Flag 

So just what did you mean by saying you're a "cub"?

What I mean by that is that I consider myself part of a section of the gay community known as "Bears". As a younger, more submissive and generally smaller member of the "species", I found myself being referred to as a cub. However, in today's world, the overlaps between the more masculine circles of gay society are becoming more and more blurred - despite the protestations of some of the more mature (or perhaps that should just be "older") members of the "Bears" circle, who have perhaps just been around longer than some of the rest of us. There are Bears. There are Cubs. There are Skinheads. And there are folks, like me, who are somewhere in the middle, can't stand being labelled anyway and wonder what all the fuss is about. When we all get together we should be celebrating, not back-biting.

So what's a bear?

What isn't a bear? Usually a "bear" is described as a bigger, masculine, hairy, bearded type, but a friendly attitude is probably the most important aspect. There's probably a limit, but it's a pretty grey area. Suffice it to say that a big, broad shouldered, hairy guy with a beard (say, John Goodman) would be a bear whereas a slim, smooth, camp queen (say, Brian Dowling) would not be, no matter how friendly and huggable his attitude.

See my "BearCode" below to work out how I fit myself into the scheme of things. And why not have a look at my pics?

Cuilean's "BearCode" (Explained)

 

B4/1

This is the best way I've come up with of saying I have a goatee/ tache

f

Above average fur on chest and back. Unfortunately my arms and legs aren't so bearish, but you can't have everything....

t-

5'8" - below average?

w

Definitely got a tummy

c+

Very much a cub.

k(++)

Open minded, but with the right person....

r

I like the outdoors. I'd be out hillwalking every weekend if I could

Everything else, I guess is neutral. 

 

OK, so you're a bearcub. What sort would you go for yourself?

Well, apologies to slim, smooth, camp, effeminate twinks, and no offence intended but that's not my type at all. Give me a beefy man with a bit of meat on his bones any day. I know what I consider the perfect body, but I'd only embarrass him (!), so what I'll do instead is give you a list of the guys in the public eye that I'd go for. It might give you a better idea than rabbitting on about goatees, body hair, short cropped hair and BMI's of 25 and over! And they're in alphabetical order, so none of them can get jealous.

So, if any of you are reading this... J (like, who am I kidding?)

 

OK, I get the idea. But, er, I notice that you've got a k(++) in your code. Doesn't that mean you're a bit strange?

Not at all. There's nothing I like better than a romantic night in, preferably in front of a roaring fire, cuddled up to a lovely man with a bottle of wine and maybe a video. But that's not to say I don't like experimenting....

 

How can I find out more?

There's no harm in asking, is there? Email me!
