While I was spinning through the channels on my cable out here in
SF, I came across a program on channel 6 called gay tv. I caught 
their version of a music video. 3 guys in leather astride motorcycles
blocking the entrance to an alley, in the alley in a doorway was a
guy with a leather hood mask on, leather g-string, hands tied up
over his head, bare butt facing out, another guy in leather dances
around to some really crummy instrumental disco music, strips 
down to a leather g-string, all the while he is flexing and 
going over to the guy in the doorway, rubbing his legs and getting
his face close to the strung-up guy's bare behind .... ooh ooh ooh
