There is one worry that almost every teen and pre-teen seems to struggle with: Is my dick big enough? Much to the delight of some of their friends who make sure not to miss that opportunity to satisfy their urges to get naked with them, only for comparison of course ;) It’s a worry that no one should despair over though because in almost all cases it does indeed get bigger.
It gets bigger…

Something Must Break
The journey of a suicidal transgender teen in small-town Sweden swerves between striking and meandering in this impressive drama. What’s most consistent is the compelling lead performance from newcomer Saga Becker, who stars as Sebastian/Ellie, a waif whose need for sex and love leads to a dysfunctional affair. The object of her desire is a boy whose confused sexuality threatens to destroy the budding relationship.
The film’s bittersweet take on young love is familiar, but the gender-related difficulties add something fresher, and Becker has an undeniable screen presence. Director Ester Martin Bergsmark’s slight film works best as a character study focused almost exclusively on the lead. There’s a grubby ugliness – from transphobic violence to an obsession with urine – and a garish style that leaves an impression, although too much repetition holds it back.
You can watch the whole film on Vimeo–if you speak either Swedish or Spanish. I’ll try to find an English version and link it here when I do.

Golden Dive
Chen Aisen is not only a cutie, he’s also a world class diver. This jump got him the gold medal at the Olympic Games in Rio.
Update: The original video was taken down; I replaced it with one from NBC that should stay up longer but sadly isn’t quite as good as the first one, instead of focusing on his last dive and his reaction (not to mention his hot body) after, it shows all dives he made in the finals cut together which makes any of them look a bit less impressive. The last one is the dive the original video was about.

Hate Preacher arrested on Charges of Child Molestation
Many bullies targeting queer kids are actually struggling with their own sexuality, that’s a fact not only well known among high-school students but also a phenomenon we witness over and over again within the church. You could fill a daily blog with the cases of pastors and preachers who had their anti-gay crusade somewhat undermined by the fact that they got caught watching gay porn, paying call boys or, far too often, molesting kids.
Which is why no one seems too surprised about the newest chapter in this history of hypocrisy: Ken Adkins was happy to mock the victims of the terrible massacre in an Orlando gay club earlier this year by tweeting “I don’t see none of them as victims. I see them as getting what they deserve”. He also fought vigorously against expanding the Human Rights Ordinance in his hometown of Jacksonville, Florida, to include LGBTI people.
Now the pastor and conservative political activist has to deal with his own demons as he was arrested Friday morning on charges of child molestation and aggravated child molestation involving a boy under the age of 16. His Twitter account has been set to private since.
I spoke with Ken Adkins’ wife. She read a formal statement and told me she loves her husband. @ActionNewsJax pic.twitter.com/Q1IoEQtqBE

Peanut Butter, Jelly & Pee
Some things seem terribly simple to most, yet cause a debate of epic proportions because a few very confused/angry fellas just don’t get it. Transgender folks wanting to use the bathroom fitting their gender is one of these things.
Magician Justin Willman breaks the whole thing down for these outraged defenders of the holy kingdom of pee with some peanut butter and jelly…

Sleep Naked!
Why? Oh, there’s so many reasons… Sleeping naked keeps your body cooler than sleeping in clothes, obviously, but it’s that slight temperature difference that can lead to deeper, more restful, and uninterrupted sleep.
It’s not the only benefit to sleeping naked though. Sleeping naked can be especially good for reproductive health as well, it can minimise the chance of infections, it helps with keeping the testicles cool and avoid low sperm count.
Note: There is a poll embedded within this post, please visit the site to participate in this post's poll.
Of course, sleeping naked has other benefits, especially if you have a partner, as skin-to-skin contact is not only therapeutic, but a great form of medicine for both your mind and your body. Touching helps you build a stronger emotional bond with your partner, and kicks off the release of oxytocin in your brain, which helps regulate mood. The video below goes into a little more detail about each of these.

Grace & Campbell
This is the occasional post in which we regretfully feature content from the overproduced shit shows that are X-Factor and America’s got Talent because some of the contestants actually do have really nice voices.
First up is 14-year-old Campbell Walker Fields who was adopted by two guys which, of course, was turned into a tearjerker segment but oh well, not his fault, he seems great and certainly can sing.
Then there’s Grace Vander Waal who must have struck a saucy deal with the devil to get a voice like that, she’s pretty awesome, she writes her own songs too! Will be interesting to see how her voice will age.
