Instinct magazine's annual swim suit issue is out this February, and on the cover it features Chippendales' first openly gay dancer, Brandon Pereyda, who talks about how most Chippendales guys are mistakenly pegged as being gay.

From Instinct's press release:
"Instinct travels to Sin City for its February swimsuit issue cover story on aerialist Brandon Pereyda, the first openly-gay performer in the world famous Chippendales troupe. Instinct editor Mike Wood spent a weekend following 23-year-old Pereyda around Vegas to find out what it's like to be the lone "out" member of the shirtless, bow-tie-wearing institution – and how he feels about performing in front of countless screaming women each night!"

"I guess it is monumental for this company," Pereyda notes. "Chippendales guys are often pegged as being gay. And they're not. And I think this will clear the slate." He continues, "They're all straight, but we would do anything for each other and that's what I really love about working here. They don't view my be gay as a negative thing at all."
