OUT 36--OUT ON THE TOWN

HEY OUTSTAGRS!

ITS THAT TIME!!

TIME TO GET TOWNED!!!

As we continue to gather ourselves on this Coronavirus pandemic  and public events  and entertainment and leisure establishments closing,  people are managing and trying to adjust  to quarantining themselves at home people are trying to find ways to keep themselves busy and unbored with family, relationships  and themselves. 

This week's topic is: Are adult stores essential?

Facebook friend Leanne Joshua White posted this question on her FB page.

Well, are they?

As we all know, being human means having those urges to satisfy carnal pleasures.

But is it a need in this pandemic?

Theres many women and alternate individuals who use various love apparati to take care of that spot from vibrators, to butt plugs to dildos, but should adult stores be open as an essential business?

I would say no. There are many ways to handle that urge using your own hands (USE YOUR OWN IMAGINATION. LOL) And those of you sexaphiles who already have your pieces of satisfaction, you may need to stock up on rechargeable batteries and a recharger that can be bought at grocery stores which are essential. 

Speaking of essential pleasures, our company Maatology Productions will host a private Paint and Sip that will be livestreamed on Patreon May 2 (TIME TBD).  Male models will be posing to be sketched or painted nude by their supporters who will tune in to watch. It will cost $5 on our  Patreon page at www.patreon.com/outonstage . Parts of the proceeds will be donated to a COVID foundation or cause.

We are also seeking more Models who would like to participate. You must be comfortable being nude, have a well lit area to pose, a decent sound mechanism to play music and have a decent build. If thats you,  email to maat.atkins@gmail.com

STREAMING VIEWZ

While perusing through BET PLUS, I ran into a drama series called FAMILY BUSINESS. It was produced and directed by Carl Weber (the same Weber who produced the webseries MONOGAMY))  and adapted from his bestelling  crime drama book series. 

Starring Ernie Hudson (who was an exec producer) , Armand Assante, Miguel Nunez  and Darrin Henson, FAMILY BUSINESS from what the description tells is "a Black Sopranos." Well, kinda. It does deal with a black family who delve in crime, but as far as its content, its serviceable, but it definitely isnt Emmy Award material. 

The plot follows the Duncans, an upstanding family that owns and operates an exotic car dealership in New York, that also deals in drug smuggling for an Italian mob family.

FAMILY BUSINESS is very glitz-glam, showing the lifestyle of the black wealthy where  everyone is well coiffed. The acting is good (especially Hudson's), and the action  will definitely have you binge watching the first eight episodes of the first season.

This week we feature a new segment that highlight African American entertainers who were or are fashion icons who set the standards of fashion.

This week we feature singer/model/fashion icon Grace Jones

This larger than life diva had the late 1970s and  the 1980s  on lock  with her style of androgynous fair. Before she got into music, she was an international model who was the toast of the town with runways and front covers of fashion  magazines with her gender bending look.

Before Prince, Boy George and Annie Lennox, Grace Jones was the trendsetter on blending male and female fashion with sexual fluidity (along with disco singer Sylvester).

Then she started a recording career and had success with such disco fillers, "Pull Up to my Bumper," Nipple to the Bottle," and "Love is the Drug."  She also starred in several films capitalizing on her provocative image including "A View to a Kill," " Conan the Destroyer, " and  "Vamp." And who can forget her role as Stronge' in Eddie Murphy's film, "Boomerang."
