My 3rd Annual Gay Moment

Every Summer I share my gay running moment. Two years ago I talked about how I like the shirtless male runners. Last year I talked shorts. This year, I want to talk about who should and shouldn't be out there trying to look hot.

As I ran on this very humid morning, I saw all kinds of men out there. Now to be fair, it was hot and humid out there, and I don't want knock the guys who just want to be comfortable. I get it. For a brief moment, I thought about doffing my shirt. Then again....I think of others, and I know what they don't want to see.

So here is an idea of who should not be out there shirtless.

1) Hairy Men - Sorry, if you take your shirt off, and you look like a running forest, put the shirt back on.

2) More Wrinkles than a Shar Pei - While I am AARP eligible, I will never be old enough to run without a shirt. Bouncing wrinkles just is not right.

3) Painfully Ugly - It's one thing to be ugly ......

So....who should be out there shirtless for all of us to enjoy. Perfect example is Olympic Athlete Nick Symmonds.... While I appreciate Nick as a great runner, he is also a LGBT Equality Supporter, and one FINE looking guy. 

Clearly I have some work to do before I doff my shirt and head out on the trail. Come on guys....you want to look hot out on the road - get to work!
