The sun is out, the scones are out – as is every part else about these two guys.
Lying naked on the beach and lying side by side on their backs, “platonic male erotic bonding” couple Will Blunderfield and Brian Carew spread their legs wide and basked their bare balls and anus in the sun as an “intimate” but “non-sexual” buddy ritual.
And while haters call the show “gay,” flaunting friends say their peculiar practice has nothing to do with sex.
“Male erotic bonding is in our male DNA,” Blunderfield, 37, who lives in Vancouver, Canada, told The Post. “Lots of men need to find a way [physically connect] with their brother without falling right into a gay panic, but they’re afraid that their heterosexual identity will crumble.”
He continued: “Same-sex bonding through activities reminiscent of rectal sunbathing is innate, natural, and transcends ‘gay’ or ‘heterosexual’. It’s the vitamin we want.”
Blunderfield described this motion as “it’s a connection deeply nourishing, inspiring and recharging not sexual yet” in the Instagram caption of footage of his and Carew’s tanning session.
The video of them roasting their rump has amassed over 30,000 views.
“That form of connection… I call it a platonic male erotic bond,” continued Blunderfield, who also calls himself a “kung fu sex trainer.”
“Most would say it’s a type of homosexuality or bisexuality,” the custom guru added. “Is not.”
And he’s right.
Actually, the Blunderfield routine, popularly often called “crotch tan,” has been lauded as an all-natural energizing exercise by unconventional health influencers for years.
The act first gained viral attention in 2019 when the influencer Ra of Earth shared an Instagram post of him and buddies taking place in what he called the “original butt-tanning video” which has over 104,000 views.
She claims in the clip, “Just 30 seconds of sunlight in your anus, you will do it receive more energy from this electrical node than all day outside in your clothes.”
But 2021 Tanning Feat Study by researchers at Oklahoma State University, deemed the trend “potentially harmful” and stressed that any purported health advantages of exercise are “not based on evidence.” And on TikTok, a Recent Jersey dermatologist warned people about the cancerous damage that excessive sunlight can do to the skin surrounding the buttocks.
But Blunderfield, founding father of Manhood Academy, a semen retention training platform that touts “male bonding, non-ejaculation orgasms, rewilding, and male sexual transmutation,” says his naked dude hookup technique may benefit not only its participants, but the world as well. as all.
“[Platonic male erotic bonding] is the form of food that speaks to men constructing one another up, sharing deep moments, one another fully naked and removing all the shame, fear and doubt that society has placed on us in this context,” he wrote.
“This world needs more men who can transcend the limiting labels of the matrix (heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, etc.) and see that this job is all about moving into glandular health and vitality together.”
And the work of his mission doesn’t end with men joining together to toast their fangs.
In May, he and Carew hosted a 90-minute “seed release ritual” workshop that men can enter for $55 to ejaculate together “platonically” via Zoom.
The aim of the bodily fluids-themed fete is to “teach techniques for using and channeling sexual energy for private and spiritual growth,” based on the Manhood Academy website.
Blunderfield told The Post: “Performing naked brotherhood, rectal sunbathing and seed release rituals without shame or gay panic can actually improve your [heterosexual] urges in your partner.
