Today's post is the final installment of this month's Wednesday GLBTQ Nude Pride series here on Guys Without Boxers: Bare With Pride. This is the last Wednesday in October, 2017.
The theme for this post is Diversity. Each photograph features interaction between subjects representing many races and ethnicities. Almost all of them depict Black men and White men. I simply haven't been able to locate many that feature other races.
In all of the images contained here, the men seem to be comfortable with one another nude. This was totally different from the "real" world at the time as it was fraught with animosity and discrimination between the races, if not outright belligerence.
Yes, it's true that the majority of these pictures were posed and show professional models, who were paid to appear indifferent to their skin color or other identifying characteristics. All but the last photo below look as though they were dated from the late 1950's to middle 1960's, based on the length and style of their hair.
The above photograph is the exception to this norm. Judging from the shaved head of the guy to the left and the length of hair of the guy on the right, this image possibly dates from the late 1960's to early 1970's, after the Stonewall Inn Riots of 1969. This photo represents extreme radicalism not only because it shows two men kissing, but indeed two men of different races kissing.
Peace! Get naked. Enjoy!
