Woof Alert: Nick

I've noticed lately that people have had a tendency to label anyone with a little scruff, hair on their chest or a bit of extra weight a "bear". This is not an accurate designation, but let's not rant about semantics... I'd like to call your attention to Nick, the boyfriend of equally fuckable photographer, blogger and pornographer Jeremy Lucido.

I suppose you could call him an "otter". Maybe just a guy with a beard, piercings and tatts? Or you could just forget about labels and join me in drooling over pics of his furry ass. It's up to you, my friends.

Dewitt- I have been known as a "bear" for a number of years, and only got the title when I had a combination of fur and size. If there is no fur and you are a big (heavyset??? weighty?? or for some of the less imaginative and more ignorant, "fat"??)guy, you are in what is usually called the "otter" category. If you have fur but are not very large at all, you usually get called a "cub" or a "wolf". Not sure who makes these decisions, but it doesn't matter to me, as there seem to be plenty of men out there that like big, furry, friendly guys like me- except the most of the muscular furry hunks that I drool about . and what's with these furry muscle guys that insist on shaving all that fur off?? ah well, these pics are very nice, and made me drool a bit myself.

All of the references I've ever heard about "otters" have been about slim, hairy guys. Is that wrong?

There is no "white paper" or official designating criteria established by any standards organization for "bear" or any of these other labels in the culture. So just give up on trying to authoritatively state what does or doesn't constitute one. It's like those famous words by a federal judge: "I can't tell you what pornography is, but I know it when I see it."

good one, Scott! And Eric, otters are definitely usually slim guys with moderate hairiness, from what I have observed through others' comments.

Generally (your mileage may vary):
bear = fur + bulk
chub = no fur + bulk
otter = fur + slim
wolf = fur + slim + middle-aged

apart from the tatts and piercings, I can barely differentiate between the two of them. I honestly thought they were brothers or something for a moment.

Yeah Randy I think you have it backwards. Terry C. seems to have nailed it with the list. I will add: A “cub” or “bearcub” can be either a young bear, or a furry guy who is nowhere near slim enough to be an otter, but smaller than the average bear, though usually slightly overweight.
And of course, there are muscle bears, who are huge for entirely different reasons.

I think the term otter comes from the actual animal which has fur and swims, via a combination of the human descriptors “furry” and “swimmer’s build”.

Also they are adorable. I could have sworn I typed that before. Twice.
