Flashback Friday: Shoreleave

It’s not enough that most of our Flashback Friday content comes from the good folks at Retro Men Plus. Now, we’re going to steal their idea—posting these images in honor of Veteran’s Day—and a bit of their original text. Here’s what they had to say about the 1987 hardcover book Shoreleave, featuring photography by Andrew Kennedy:

“This is basically a non-sexual photo collection, with hot guys and a lot of nudity, depicting a bunch of sailors just in to port. They evidently do what all those non-gay sailors do. Rather than taking cabs to the nearest gay bar with the other 90% of the crew, this bunch set out for some nude camping. So to speak. Naked volleyball, and other wholesome non-queer things like that. Only, hmmmmmm… where are the women in every port?”

As group member “Madd Coww” points out, there are a lot of good photos in this set. Hopefully, the seventeen we’ve selected for this post don’t sacrifice too much of the narrative. We’re not sure if you can join the group and still get a hold of all of the scans. However, it’s worth a try, and you can always have the e-mails forwarded to a non-Yahoo address.

  1. The amazing mystery to life is , why do skinny twinks have such huge cocks,and big muscle guys most often have smaller members?

  2. Perspective.  A cock will a lot bigger compared to a skinny leg than a large, muscular thigh.

  3. Yeah, I’m a small guy, with an average cock, but it looks a little more than it is on me. Now if you put my cock on a real man sized man, it would look well…small I guess.

  4. Dewitt – thes for e are the kind of men that I found when I was a teenager. and they are hard-wired to my bone.
    Thanks so much fo F.. Friday

  5. Just God’s sense of humor.  The same way that masculine men’s cocks are usually smaller than fem guys’ cocks.

  6. It’s not all about perspective. Skinny twinks do seem to have much larger dicks. It’s part of the body type, (seen tons of them in the locker room). Another example, I’m short and stocky, with a big booty. My body type tends to have a bigger butt. Different body types have different features, (some good, some bad). Skinny twinks almost always have big penises. I’ve seen it countless times first hand.

  7. oh brother. What about ….ethnicity? or genes or what runs in your family?  I’ve seen it COUNTLESS times first hand.

  8. Is it wrong that as soon as I saw this photoset, The Village People start singing “In The Navy” in my head?
