“By day I design floral patterns for bedding. But drawing gay erotica is my true passion,” says Etheredge. “The first thing I ever drew was Prince Eric from The Little Mermaid, buck naked with an erection. Charlie Brown was also a big influence. This image was inspired by an experience I had on the L train about five years ago. It was at night, and I was with two girls who weren’t really paying attention. Suddenly, this hot Latino guy sticks his hand down his sweatpants and starts fondling himself! He was looking right at me and smiling.”

Pet says: “This is a rather ho-hum work, but I can see why some people would find it a turn-on, if not amusing. No one seems to notice this man fondling himself, which is perhaps more indicative of old New York. In the new ‘politically correct’ New York, not only would people notice, this guy’d get an escort by New York’s Finest.”

Legs says: “Fucking hell—what a package! It reminds me of anime porn—effective in stirring something up but ultimately kitschy and oversexed in a juvenile way. What can I say? I’m a sucker for nuance.”

Billy says: “I probably shouldn’t comment; I’ve had sex with all five people in this picture. The one guy seems to have elephantiasis of the testicles—which is a big turn-on for me. If I actually saw someone like that in the subway, I would roll my eyes but secretly wish they were fucking me.”
