Living in the Cave

Gay bear (GB) meets a really nice handsome straight bear (SB) at work… and because SB is really nice (Physical and Personal), and because a bear is a bear, GB falls in love with the SB. SB welcomes the GB’s friendly gestures, however, keeps flirting with women (Ewww). GB realize that there is no way he is going to get his hands (or any other limbs) around SB, but cannot help being too friendly with SB. Now, GB is in tight spot: he does not want to scare SB away by being too close, but at the same time…he cannot hold himself back, as when he sees SB, he jumps around him like a dog wanting to play Frisbee… WHAT DO YOU THINK GB SHOULD DO?

PS : GB IS STILL IN THE CAVE... I MEAN CLOSET… and single
 

Hot & Heavy

Hot: Unrequited love, don’t they movies about this stuff?

Heavy: Yea, on Llifetime.  Either that or you just end up on Jenny Jones or Springer. NEVER PRETTY!

Hot: Reminds me of the Countess – “Oh, l'amour, l'amour, how it can let you down.”

Heavy: GB leave SB alone and go find a good man, a true man – but most of all a GAY man. Unless, SB has some inclinations we are all unaware of – he’s not likely to be changing teams anytime soon. This one has heartache written all of it – if not a sexual harassment lawsuit. Oh, honey – not where you eat!!
 

Hot: And about the cave thing? – it’s spring, time to come out!!!

Is this normal?

 

Hot & Heavy 

 

Hot: Well lookie here, we’ve got a question from one of our reader’s. And, go figure he has signed it anonymous. Hmmmm, “Come Out, Come Out – wherever you are. . .”

Heavy: Be nice and read the question already.

Hot: Just like a man in such a hurry, have you ever heard of foreplay?

Heavy: Foreplay? Yea, that’s the part where I beg, right?

 

Hot: Pretty much, well moving on . . . Our secret writer asks, “My husbear likes to suck my toes, is that normal?” Hmmmm, NO! And for the record, he needs to travel a lot further north if he’s gonna rev the engines, if you know what I mean.

Heavy: Wow, Dr. Ruth – you are not. Our reader’s husbear has a little foot fetish, we like to call “shrimping.” Please, no Bubba Gump jokes. Shrimping is when one enjoys sucking the toes of his/her partner. Feet are very sensitive and ticklish. This can be some light hearted fun. Think “this little piggy went to market…” May you go wee-wee all the way home.

Hot: Wee-wee, oh that's another column to itself.

Bet this gets him to do the grocery shopping . . .

One of our many fans writes “What foods are good for sex?”

 

Hot & Heavy 

 

Hot: Here is a question I can answer! Food and sex, yum my favorite combo!

Heavy: You know the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. Food and sex have been linked together through out the ages. History is ripe with the human pursuit of aphrodisiacs in many forms – even risking death. For example, the Puffer Fish, considered both a delicacy and an aphrodisiac in Japan. If the poisonous gland is not properly removed, the tiniest taste is deadly. The flirt with death is said to give a sexual thrill. The things we do for love . . .

Hot: Only you would think of that. And, I don’t think that is what our dear reader is asking. I suggest a visit to the produce aisle with his partner. There are always the old standbys like carrots and cucumbers. And a little creative carving can make for an interesting date. And don't forget your condoms!

Heavy: And carrots are good for your eyesight, so you don't have to worry about that going blind thing. Condoms? - I don’t think we have to worry about getting STDs from the vegetables. 

Hot: No, it just makes for easier clean up. Going blind?  You've been talking to your mother, again - haven't you?  Anyway, to continue--a frozen banana can also be fun. Just make sure it freezes in a good shape.

Heavy: As opposed to a bad shape? One of my favorites is sucking on an ice cube before sucking on something else – I just got a shiver thinking about it.

Hot: And don’t forget my personal favorite—chocolate syrup. I suppose if you were worried about the carbs you could make it with cocoa powder and artificial sweetener.

Heavy: Artificial sweetener? You’re the romantic, eh? What about strawberries and whipped cream?

Hot: You can use the spray can to spray whipped cream on the parts you want licked!

Heavy: Cover me from head to toe.

Hot: I like the way you’re thinking.

Hot and Heavy: Is chatting cheating?

Hot & HeavyMy boyfriend enjoys chats on gay.com and bear411.  I was told through a mutual Internet acquaintance, who didn't know we were together, that my boyfriend said he is single.  His online profiles also leave off his relationship status. While they don't say he's "Single" they don't say "Monogamously coupled" either.

Anyway, I found X-rated pictures, as well as sexual e-mails he had sent to another cub that lives nearby.

I guess my questions to you guys are: Is he cheating? How do I approach him about chatting online? Do I even need to approach him? Do I need to stay in this relationship?

Worried in Wachovia

HOT: Ugh, men are dogs . . .

HEAVY:  You’re so helpful.  This coming from the queen of late night chats.  What’s your screen name again?  PowerBottom something or other?

HOT: That’s Mr. PowerBottom to you, bitch.  

HEAVY:  Whatever.  We get asked about monogamy all the time.  And it depends on the couple. Some need a one on one exclusive relationship.  Some others are happy sowing the wild oats all over town.  It’s what works for you and what you are comfortable with.

Above all - it’s about trust, which obviously has been breached in your case.  You don’t trust him, and you’re looking for evidence of wrong doings – that’s bad.   His online antics may be nothing more than a little cyber cruising, but if that bothers you – you can try to get him to change (not likely) or it’s time to move on.

Hunting for Bears

Hot & Heavy

I have a sweet tooth for bears. Yes, I like my men with meat on their bones, and if they have hair all over… woof, even better (and don’t get me started with a hairy back)!

Usually, when I see bears in bars or hotels, they are always in groups. Most of the times they are laughing and having a very good time. The main reason why I like them? Because they seem to be comfortable in their own skin, and what the heck, because they turn me on!

 

Any advice on how to break into a group or how to approach a bear?

Alex (hungry and on the prowl in Los Angeles)

 

Hot: Have you tried dangling meat?

 

Heavy: Oh be careful, remember that poor little thing that got in the way of the buffet table at our last outing? I don’t think he was ever seen again.

 

Hot: I thought he was an appetizer. Here are some basic rules about bears:

 

  • Do not approach a bear's food. Or his beer.
  • Never try to corner a bear for any reason. You may be blocking their view of a cute cub.
  • Don't Feed the Bears - Never attempt to feed a wild bear without their Huzbear's approval.
  • Each bear has a different temperament - Some bears will attack, others will not. Some bears are scared of chasers, others have a natural curiosity.
  • Respect the Bear Bar - Remember you are in its home. It may look cute and cuddly, but don't try to pet it unless you get permission.

 

Heavy: But, what if he wants one of his own?

 

Hot: Well forget it if he’s in a group setting, unless you really like challenges and entertaining people. Your attempts will be fodder for years to come and you never know if Huzbear is among the crowd. If the target of your affections should breakaway from the group - say to go off to dance on his own or does a bar lap – then he is approachable.

 

Heavy: And once you have Mr. Woofy’s attention, just be you. Be polite and don’t grope uninvited. Often, bears are just as afraid as you are. “Gee, I never thought a cute guy like you would like a big, ole bear like me . . .”

 

Hot: And if you are not good in public settings, try a personal ad. Many bears love chasers, all you have to do is put it out there.
