Get down on your knees for BUTT no. 36. The thickest and most holy issue yet is filled cover to cover with revelations from passionate queens around the world.
There’s a lot to gag over inside the alternatingly porny and pious issue. First up – twunky screen-and-stage star Omar Ayuso stripped-down and unplucked. Inside, find an intergenerational chat between conceptual art superstar AA Bronson and porn dad Joel Someone, Ryūdai Takano’s tender self-portrait series ‘With me’, and a thrilling journey inside badass director Lilly Wachowski’s off-screen universe. There’s a jockstrapped boxer, a dizzying interview with the gay tailor to the Pope and a fine selection of bulges from Melbourne, Australia. And so much more. In a historical twist, Dutch author Raoul de Jong rewrites a seventeenth century anti-sodomy saga into new queer lore. In another historical twist, BUTT no. 36 has two covers with Spanish-Moroccan hottie Sir Karim, shot by Gustavo García-Villa – pick your poison.
Since its surprise rebirth in 2022 with the support of Bottega Veneta, BUTT is charging ahead as a go-to hub for some of the most important conversations and unhinged dynamics in queer culture. From global stars like Troye Sivan and Arca, to under-the-radar activists and sex workers, the magazine is consistently combing the far corners of queer life to produce a deliriously sexy, shockingly honest capsule of our times.
