I found these over on my friend Tye’s blog, Favorite Hunks & Other Things. Apparently, a body-painted Captain America has been a staple in the Seattle Pride Parade for a couple of years. This year, he was naked.
As an even better treat, Captain America was not shy about washing off the body paint in public. It looks like he’s just as hot out of the costume, if you ask me. Someone in Seattle… find him for me!

Sad that they go there as you would hope pride would be a place I could take my family, pride sadly is more shame. Wheres our floats w our fashion designers, doctors, lawers, great architects? We need to celebrate the good and great in our comunity. This just makes us look like a bunch of men that never grew up from being hormone driven teens!

Jeremiah, I see your point, however it’s a very conventional perspective. There is nothing vulgar or inappropriate about this man’s display. There is nothing that this man is doing that isn’t in any way family appropriate. To consider nudity in public inappropriate for the family is to consider nature itself inappropriate.
However that’s just my perspective and I’d like to hear you remarks.

I agree with Seige, just because someone is nude does not mean it’s vulgar or should be hidden from “families.” That’s the main motivation behind my photography. Let me also add two other points. . .
First, the gay community is more fractured than ever. Bears whine about twinks, twinks whine about anyone over 40, conservative gays whine about leather daddies, muscle cubs whine about drag queens. . . this is all our community, whether we like it or not. I’d like to see a Pride Parade with the doctors marching next to the drag queens and the architects next to a naked guy.
And second, to be a bit more light hearted for a minute, if a parade was just designers, doctors, lawyers, architects . . . well, how boring would that be?

FYI sport – he’s straight. Local staple of the naturist community, he also does stuff like this for WNBR and Summer Solstice. His girlfriend (at least the last one i saw him with) was hella hot too.

Thanks, David. I’d love to photograph him. I suppose I’d have to go to Seattle to do that.
