June 09 - Sex Issue

Welcome to our high octane, pumped up, hormone-riddled sex issue.
We’ve had a mad and sleazy month – we sent Patrick Strudwick to a straight sauna to see how the other half live and we asked Mark Simpson what he thought of the current culture of over-porno’d sex – as usual, he had p-l-e-n-t-y to say. We’ve also got the results of our recent reader sex survey and… WELL... you ARE a lot of dark horses aren’t you? Your imaginations fill me with fear and excitement! Delicious.
We have also flown the utterly delicious and totally lovely DJ and porn star Jan Fischer to Berlin to do a shoot with GT favourite Patrick Mettraux and we’ve got an exclusive shoot with top porn star, Johnny Hazzard. I can barely contain myself. I think that this is quite possibly the fleshiest issue we have ever done.
We’ve not just been poking around under the covers, we’ve also been undercover. We have an insider spy reporting the “Sex and the City” conference – a meeting about how to cure homosexuals of their terrible sickness. Having front row seats, we have been able to report in a way that no other media outlet has been able to. I think you will be as shocked/amused/ saddened and angered as I was.
We have been asking for a lot of participation recently – and so we are proud to announce the winners of our 2009 Readers’ Awards. Thank you for all your votes cast over the last six months.
We have loads coming up to mark our 25th birthday– for starters, on August 20th, we are having our birthday party in association with Village Drinks, the popular network for gay professionals, at London’s Kensington Roof Gardens. Visit our website for details. I really hope to see you there – come grab me and the rest of the team GT for a shimmy and shake.
