Tom of Finland’s Death Anniversary Week Celebration, November 7 – 13, 2022 @dollphotostudio
We celebrate the second day of Tom of Finland’s Death Anniversary Week with “Reading Is for Lovers.”
This photograph, inspired by Tom’s piece from 1987, showcases a fully clothed Takeshi while Manuel, his partner, is completely nude.
We’re also highlighting works by my favorite gay artists and writers. These miniature books are best enjoyed with a cup of your favorite beverage and some cakes and pastries.
Are You My Mother? (Alison Bechdel)
J.C. Leyendecker: American Imagist (Laurence S.
Cutler, Judy Goffman Cutler)
Tom of Finland: The Complete Kake Comics
Tom of Finland XXL (Dian Hanson)
The Male Nude (David Leddick)
The Gay Kama Sutra (Colin Spencer)
Men Without Ties (Gianni Versace)
Bruce! (Bruce Vilanch)
States of Desire (Edmund White)
Quaintance (George Quaintance)
Apart from uniform and leather, another dominant theme in Tom’s work is Clothed Make Nude Male (CMNM). This specific fetish falls within the power play category as the nude party is exposed and therefore more vulnerable than his clothed partner.
We see this in various pieces including Kake comics where he’s been both the clothed (“The Intruder”) and the nude (“Horny Holiday”).

Hey, you gorgeous thing!
Keeping this space sizzling for free isn’t easy (think: hosting costs, doll accessories, and lube—lots and lots of lube).
But we realized it’s almost impossible to keep going without your help. And we get it—times are tough, so any support you can offer means the world.
If we’ve made you horny, laugh, cum, or feel something special, why not give a little love back? 💖
Every donation keeps the smut (and culture) going—and trust us, at this point in our lives, we’re so grateful we’re able to produce this content regularly.
Thanks. You’re a doll. 😘
