SKINNY BOYS RULE!
My second issue of GENRE (MAR ’07) arrived today. Gentlemen, may God bless your wicked souls! I melted into sheer mental stupidity—a deep, aching pain—and shed tears when I gazed upon Justin Gaston (“Great Plains,” MAR ’07, p. 44). Anton (Cover and “Ripped,” MAR ’07, p. 34) was very nice, but my God! Please, please tell me you are going to feature Justin in a swimsuit issue. Pretty please? Thanks so much for making my days brighter and my bed a little warmer and cozier at night. You’re the best and just what the rainbow doctor ordered. Kudos to you!

EASY BEING GREEN
As a gay man who has made caring about our environment part of both my personal and professional life, I wanted to say kudos to GENRE on your Green Issue (JAN/FEB ’07). You’ve highlighted great ways of making small changes that don’t require a big commitment, major lifestyle alterations or a membership to the Al Gore fan club. There truly are ways that even the most stereotypically self-absorbed gays can make sure we don’t trash the only planet we call home. And speaking of stereotypes, being green is definitely no longer the sole arena of Joey Siesholtz’s bleeding-heart, soapbox-preaching, “green guy” environmentalist (“Joey for a Day,” JAN/FEB ’07, p. 86). You’d be surprised how many hip, nature-loving hotties are out there. Trust me! What it boils down to is making more sustainable purchasing choices is a great way for each of us to do our part. And let’s face it: We gays love to shop, so it’s a win-win.

STYLE DOWN UNDER
G’day, Sean. Your comp (“Style Blogger: Free Stuff,” genremagazine.com) probably doesn’t include entries outside the U.S. (clue: “Include your zip code”). But, I thought I’d give it a go since: A. You’re a glamorous, jetsetting style guru for one of the world’s must-read magazines; B. Your blog on Sydney hit all the tantalizing highlights; C. Your boyfriend is an Aussie—’nuff said.

RENEW ME, PLEASE!
Chris, I was looking through my March ’07 GENRE and saw your picture under “From the Editor” (MAR ’07, p. 8), and I just wanted to drop a line and tell you that we (my partner and I) are big fans of your magazine. We have talked about it and highlighted it previously on our blog, Hunkdujour.com. We got a subscription last year, and we got hooked pretty quickly and just signed up for another year. It does make a fellow proud to see that quality can be produced and enjoyed that doesn’t necessarily have to involve porn. Just wanted to drop you a note and say keep up the good work!
