Bottom Basics combines our love of men of all ages and types, learning more about M4M sex, Pride, spotting gay trends, and offering unique, creative + cool items on the web.
We don’t care if you identify as a bottom, top, versatile or none-of-the-above. We are all unique individuals. We do care that you enjoy a refreshed Bottom Basics. Let us know!
ABOUT OUR CONCEPT
Bottom Basics is an intriguing one-stop online lifestyle resource and shop for discerningly cool gay, queer and bisexual men. The BB Team is led by our hearts, quirky humor and a healthy dose of imagination!
ABOUT BOTTOM BASICS 101
Explore our new infotainment lifestyle resource area, Bottom Basics 101. You can spend hours going through the two exciting sections: SEX + TRENDING GAY.
Our review commentary on highly curated, selective, informative videos and articles from across the internet is very popular among our users. Find links to sexual enjoyment, how-to, tips for basic beginner to power bottoms (and tops!), trends in sexual and mental health, looking good, culture and fun content.
The BB Team even coined and/or popularized a few new words, such as Gayology, which according to yours truly, defines pertinent issues and research in the “ologies” of biology, psychology and sociology impacting our lives.
Plus, since we are all getting older, it’s a must to focus on Aging Gayfully (another new word for your gay vocabulary, which we hope is self-explanatory, but if not, it means living a full and gay life).
We promise to continually discover and deliver the most relevant, humorous and useful online material for you. We spend hours to curate so you don’t have to search the web! Simply click the link on each page.

THE BB TEAM
We come from different backgrounds, by way of the backwater bayous of Louisiana and the golden hill streets of gay San Francisco. We’ve been great friends since the founding of Twitter, and have tweeted to each other thousands of times. We like to believe we are discerning gay men.

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.
