Fifty million Frenchmen can't be straight: Eight Bayeux boyfriends, Aix amis, and Parisian cocombres
You've probably heard the song "Fifty Million Frenchmen Can't Be Wrong":
They say the French are naughty
They say the French are bad
They all declare that over there
The French are going mad.
They have a reputation of being very gay
I just got back from Paris, and I just want to say:
It's true.
I spent a summer in Paris in grad school, and visited regularly until COVID squashed international travel, so I have quite a lot of memories of Parisian cocombres.
Images of people I know are posted with their permission
1. The Ballet School at the Opera National.
Go in the winter -- no crowds. On Christmas Eve, the Louvre is deserted.
2. A Turkish musician
3. On the train
Shakespeare and Company on the Left Bank, my favorite place in Paris. Well, aside from that bar near the Centre Pompidou...
4. Garz dans le placard -- guy in the closet
More après la pause -- after the break. Caution: explicit.
John Amos: Kunta Kinte, Gordy the Weatherman, James Evans, a gay husband, and my gym buddy
Former footballer and coast guardsman John Amos was everywhere on television in the 1970s and 1980s.
The adult Kunta Kinte in Roots (1977).
Left: Levar Burton played the young Kunta Kinte.
Gordy the Weatherman on The Mary Tyler Moore Show (1970-77).
Plus guest shots on Sanford and Son, Maude, Police Story, Love Boat, The A-Team...you name it, he was in it.
I didn't see much of him during the 80s and 90s -- not on screen, anyway. We went to the same gym in West Hollywood.
John was always gracious to his flirtatious gay fans, leading us to speculate that he was gay in real life -- he's been married to women twice, and has two children, but you never know.
We never became friends, but we developed a nodding acquaintance. And I saw him naked in the locker room once or twice.
Naked after the break
