DNA Magazine DNA #271 – Fashion Special Zurück Ausgabe

Kash Cooper leaps off the cover in a brilliant blue Pump jockstrap, and inside there are three stunning fashion spreads. Rufskin take their favourite model, Logan, to the desert to shoot their wild Tulli Fruit stretch tulle range. There’s Roberto Chiovitti’s scorching series with Michele Vitacca on a rooftop in Rome, featuring ThePack, TOF Paris and Rufskin. And Unwrapped reveals Michael in some chunky knits, faux furs and not much else in an intimate shoot by Ethan James.

We get serious with a feature on The Mattachines who, decades before Stonewall, worked quietly and lawfully to overturn discrimination in employment, and working to achieve civil rights for LGBTQIA+ people. We go back to the 1940s and ’50s to rediscover these pioneers.

We interview Dr Norman Swan who says gays are super-healthy and lots of sex is good for keeping you young. Great news! We speak with dreamy singer Callum Scott about his up-coming tour Down Under (speedos are packed), and Sage Suede who “slipped out of his shorts” at a party recently and wrote a song about it!

Our Straight Mate is actor Sean Johnston, getting his quiff up for Hairspray and revealing his man crush on Zac Efron. We chat with “proud gay bogan” author Holden Sheppard and ABC journo Jason Om about his new book, and we attend an amazing Indian wedding with one Sikh groom and one Hindu groom – love wins!

Plus, we review Queer As Folk 3, Andy Warhol Diaries, David Sedaris’ newie, Oliver Sims' album, and Cruel Intentions on stage, and Wil Anderson has The Last Word!
