[Memories] The Highway To Heaven Confession
Seriously, what I find physically attractive, has been with me since I was a little kid. I had to explain this to people -- it doesn't just "pop up" one day and you say, "Oh yay, I think I'll try cock! All the cool kids are doing it!"
When I was about seven or eight years old, I was doing homework in front of the TV while my mother watched the old Michael Landon show Highway To Heaven. In one episode Michael Landon's hefty bearded cohort (I never CAN remember his name, nor the actor's name, but those who have seen the show KNOW who I'm talking about!) was dealing with some kid who wanted to attend a dance, but knew nothing on HOW to dance. So, said husky cohort said, "Fine, I'll show you how," and started to ballroom dance with him.
I was inexplicably interested in this, and thought about that scene the rest of the night. The next day, I found the VHS tape my mother had (she taped the show all the time) and rewatched the episode while no one was around. I really felt like I was doing something "wrong," yet I couldn't tell you why.
And now I dig the husky hairy bearded homos. Shock! I told a coworker this and he was just dumbfounded that my lust was so rooted at such a young age. I didn't even get into the unhealthy obsession as a child for Sebastian Cabot.
