Count me among those who isn’t in lovew with Ben Cohen, but he is a consistent favorite with Outsports readers, as evidenced by his continual success in the King of the Hardwood contest. This month Cohen follows fellow rugger Nick Youngquest posing in next-to-nothing on the cover of Attitude, a gay men’s magazine in the UK. No big shocker here: Cohen has been incredibly gay-positive in the last few years, even throwing a fan appreciation party strictly for his gay fans!
Still, plenty of gay men will enjoy the new pics of Cohen. We have a larger version of the cover and one underwear pic after the jump.
Hat tip to VGL and Queer Two Cents.

First of all, Attitude magazine is a heterosexual magazine. They can claim they are a gay magazine all they want but the fact is they put haterosexuals on the covers 9 out of 10 times. Magazine covers are the most valuable space on a magazine so they are saying haterosexuals are more valuable than gay people.
Second, there is no courage required for a haterosexual to say he or she endorses equality or anything related to gay people. Sure they’ll get a few hate mail and that’s it. The hate arises when actual gay people endorse equality or say anything related to gay people. Haterosexuals are fine when they are making the decisions but with gay people it’s a different story. Haterosexuals want you to be silly, docile and subservient.

“Karl” — I’d say the content determines if it’s a gay mag or not — not just the cover. And judging from the rest of your remarks I’d say you’re more of a “hate”rosexual than most.

Yeah, Ben Cohen can get it. I love the pic on the front of the magazine in the wet black shorts.
And Karl, it does take cajones to endorse the gay community if you are athlete because nine out of ten times the fans and the opposing teams are going to rag on you big time just to rattle your cage during a game.

Karl, that was so militant, it was practically lesbian.
