When searching online, I came across a photo gallery blog dedicated to good-looking Japanese (and other Asian) athletes and models. Some of those who are reading my blog might also be interested in peaking his blog.
Japanese athletes in general
Japanese baseball players
Chinese
Korean
Taiwanese
Actors
Half-Asian
There are more genres such as swimmers, American football players, and so forth. They're all listed on the left side of his blog, though they're only in Japanese, but you'll be able to navigate his site easily even if you don't understand Japanese.

ゲイ向けテレビ
The A-Listが盛り上がってるけど（僕らだけ？）、僕のお気に入りのリアリティー番組、Flipping Outが、今晩、シーズン・フィナーレだった。
ジェフは雑誌社House Beautifulによってキッチン・オブ・ザ・イヤーに選ばれて、仕事も順風満帆。それがいい宣伝になって新しいクライアントが付いたりとめでたい話で今シーズンが終わった。あの超几帳面で恐怖政治のジェフ・ルイスが見られなくなるかと思うと心寂しい気になるけど、来週から同じ時間帯にあのミリオネアー・マッチメーカーが戻ってくる！
主人公のパティーは100万ドル以上の資産を持つ男女をクライアントに、彼らの結婚相手を探す恋愛カウンセラー。ユダヤ系ならではの毒舌でクライアントもタジタジ。パティーの決まり事の一つが、「最初のデートでは上の穴にも下の穴にもイレイレしちゃだめよ！」っていうこと。これを新しいクライアントに必ず忠告するんだよねー。始めて彼女に会った人ならドンビキだよー。中には憤慨して彼女にお願いするのをキャンセル人もいるけど、それが見てて面白いんだよね。50歳にもなって20代前半のコギャルにしか興味持てない色オヤジを一刀両断にするパティーは痛快。ジェフの女版にふさわしい強烈キャラ。来週からまた楽しみができた～。
そしてもう一つ見てるのが、これまたBravo TVのデザート版Top Chef。デザート職人が毎週腕を競うんだけど、やっぱデザート職人にはゲイが多いのかなー。コンテスタントも男性の多数派がゲイ。
29歳のYigitが可愛い
Zacはおちゃめで超良い人。友達になりたい。職人としての腕も良いみたい
Morganは結婚してる。良いダディーって感じ
Sethを初めて見たとき、cuteって思ったけど、番組が始まると彼の最悪な性格が露呈。The A-Listでいうところの悪役Austinだな。ちなみに彼はMorganと同じく唯二のストレート。

アメリカの軍隊に、ゲイであることをオープンにしてる人が入隊・入省することを禁止するDon't ask, don't tell法を撤回するよう連邦判事が判断を下した（関連ニュース記事）。これから司法省が介入したり連邦議会がいちゃもんつけたり、すんなり法律破棄には至りそうにないけど、明るい一歩だね。ちなみに、A-Listの登場人物ライケンも元空軍パイロットのキャプテン。

San Francisco
Staying in a city as a tourist/visitor is one thing but actually living in the city is another. I reaffirmed with myself about such a thought in San Francisco last week. During Fleet Week I came to SF to look around and see how it's like to live in Bay Area.
SF is definitely a walkable city, which is a big plus compared with LA. Victorian houses, hip coffee shops, and restaurants with ocean and bay views from top of hills are so charming and lovely. Locals also say that this is the best time of a year. They say fog and gloomy weather is something I should expect mostly. I have visited SF more than ten times but I haven't really seen foggy days though I experienced chilly days in summer. One guy who has been living in Castro for a couple of decades said he prefers SoCal, Santa Barbara in particular. But most San Franciscans said it was a good decision to move out of LA to SF. I thought it was funny and characteristic of them because Los Angelinos don't say, "Oh you made a great decision to move down to LA from SF." Is it because SF is really better than LA or because people in SF feel overshadowed by LA (and by fog)?
I viewed apartments in Downtown, Nob Hill, Russian Hill, North Beach, Inner Richmond, Castro, Mission, USF area, Pacific Heights, Inner Sunset, Twin Peaks, Glen Park, and more! After driving around SF for a week, I now have good knowledge about SF neighborhoods. Now I see the city with a fuller view than what I had before just as a visitor. I have heard about how expensive it is to live in SF but apartment rents are not so different from those of Manhattan and Los Angeles. LA apartments are larger in general and almost always come with parking garage but rents are not significantly higher. Maybe during the dot com era, apartments in SF were higher.
What I am most curious about SF is how gay Japanese will do there. Since there are a large Asian population in Bay Area, I assume gay Asians are not going to be someone overshadowed or neglected by the gay community there. But what is it like for a gay Japanese to live in SF? My experience in New York and Los Angeles is somewhat disappointing in that Asians are basically treated like secondary citizens in gay communities in both cities. I was disappointed that even LA is like that. I had enough of Euro-centric gay communities in Manhattan and somewhere else in the East Coast. One of the reasons why I moved to LA is to find a better place where "West meets East." But LA has turned out to be not "East" enough. I sense SF is more like Vancouver where a large Chinese population immigrated and am hoping that I will finally find what I've been looking for.
