Courtesy of Towleroad, Ben Cohen strips down for the British gay magazine. Though Tom Brady and Mark Sanchez have appeared in GQ, which has more of a gay readership than a straight one, no major American sports figure has followed the lead of other world sports figures and appeared in gay magazines. The Americans lack the balls! Bollocks to them!

You will have a very long wait before you see a str8 American professional athlete on the cover of a gay magazine or even courting his gay fans like Cohen does. In Europe not so much of an issue, but lets face it Americans have issues with anything involving sex (especially gay sex) or semi nudity (think speedos). Its a cultural difference. Can you ever imagine an American sports team doing anything close to the Dieux de Stade calendars?

true.

mark sanchez poses shirtless on GQ and he gets endless ribbing from his teammates.

back to cohen......he's perfect!
