BEARD THE LION | It’s a few months old, but frankly I could watch men rub beards for hours on end — in fact, if you don’t hear from me in the next few hours, it’s because I’m watching Sean Johnson’s YouTube channel on repeat.

If the models look familiar, that’s because they’re our friends (we go way back) Elliot and Christopher. Ahem, that’s Christopher “PINUPS” Schulz to you.

Mr. Johnson is graduate of SMFA (School of the Museum of Fine Arts). Here’s his take on things.

I see the homosexual man with facial hair as a symbol for masculinity that has been stripped from mainstream gay culture (especially American gay culture). The queer bearded man then becomes the icon of masculinity and a representation of what I feel is somewhat lacking in gay culture.

Pinups is getting ready to release its 10th issue in September. It’s a special issue that is a reaction to ideas and expectations about the magazine being porn. Issue 10 opposes the traditional porn story by featuring Scott’s morning routine. Scott wakes up, yawns, goes to the bathroom, showers, shaves, and gets dressed. Check out our interview with Pinups editor, Christopher Schulz, as well some vintage launch party photos.

Issue 10 features 27 black and white images over 56 pages, half of which can be made into a 32″ x 70″ image.

The latest issue of PINUPS (#6) is coming out this month. And Christopher Schulz is having a party to celebrate at The Cock (apropos no?). Find out why PINUPS isn’t exactly a “bear” magazine in Christopher’s interview with Fab Magazine. And check out a sneak peak of the issue after the jump.
