Basically, we’re about bottoms. But we love tops, vers guys, and everyone in between.
Bottom Basics is the curated daily resource for gay, queer, and bi men. We combine clear, expert sex and wellness guides with honest product curation—cutting through the fluff to deliver essential routines, prep advice, and top-tier gear.
Whatever your role or identity, we’re here to help you feel confident, prepared, and informed. Welcome to the refreshed Bottom Basics.


ABOUT OUR CONCEPT
Bottom Basics is the daily lifestyle portal and curated resource for gay, queer, and bisexual men who want straight-to-the-point guidance and handpicked gear. Led by a healthy mix of cheeky humor, sharp curation, and real-world utility, we cut through the internet noise so you can focus on looking, feeling, and playing your best.
ABOUT BOTTOM BASICS 101
Welcome to Bottom Basics 101—your digital guidebook for M4M sex, health, and culture. We break down the essentials across two primary tracks: Sex and Trending Queer.
We spend hours sifting through the web to curate and review the most reliable advice, how-to guides, sexual wellness tips, and cultural commentary so you don’t have to. From beginner basics to power-bottom masterclasses (and plenty for tops, too), we cover sexual enjoyment, mental health, prep routines, and modern queer life.
We’ve even coined a few terms along the way:
-
Gayology: Our dive into the biology, psychology, and sociology impacting queer lives today.
-
Aging Gayfully: Our framework for staying vibrant, healthy, and thriving as we get older.

Sometimes, my experiences with anal sex is pure, toe-curling euphoria that I wish would never stop. Other times, it feels like I’m being gutted and things can’t end quickly enough. As a result, I’ve always felt that, if my bottoming skills aren’t up to par, I should assume the position that I’m more confident in even if it doesn’t necessarily match my desires.
