I&#;ve seen some gay men practically starve themselves, avoid carbs appreciate the plague, and even live mostly on vodka, lime, and soda.
I too, many years ago, in my attempts to gaze good in a speedo ventured down the street of Keto, skipping meals, SlimFast, and other diet fads. While I did lose some weight, I always felt guilty about eating this or that and it was tough to function in social settings that involved diet.

I think my express joy lines make me look dashing in some lights. (In others, like Annabelle.) I have no reason to touch my toes, so no biggie there. If I end up aging anything like my mother, I’ll contain close to zero complaints.
What does scares me though, is the idea of being an aged twink. Here's a crash course for my beloved straight readers: In the gay community, there are different sub-categories of gays. I’m not exactly sure how they came to be, but surely it has something to do with the innate demand to group things together by category. (Think #organizationporn.)
