Tom Ford Butt Naked in Magazine

Fashion designer Tom Ford appears butt naked in the upcoming November issue of the newly revamped Out magazine and talks about how he dislikes the term 'gay' and why he prefers to hang out with straight guys.

Ford tells the magazine, "I have to say I don't think gay is the most attractive word; if I were art-directing the creation of a word that would describe homosexuals, I think I might have tried to find another one. Gay makes us sound silly and frivolous, which is probably where it came from originally - it was first used in a Cole Porter song in the '30s - and I think it was probably a bit derogatory, and so it's not a word I necessarily like, but it's what I am, whatever."

About straight guys, Ford says "I have a lot of gay friends, but I'd say my closest friends who are male are straight, and I don't know why that is...maybe because I always get crushes on them."

Ford also talks about the steamy photo shoot in the shower, "I complimented their cocks in the shower," […] "I told one guy, 'Your cock is really good; mine is usually bigger than this,' and he said, 'Oh, it's just the water - go stand under the shower.'" […] "If you behave that way and you respect people, I think they get it," […] "They sense from me that I'm not going to give one of them a blow job." […] "I just don't do that."
