I'm a little sad to see the chain of comments there where some people are like "We wish there was one with guys instead, or even one that was both" and he's like "Oh don't worry, there's men in here" by which he appears to mean "The True Blood picture has a guy who isn't the focus of the image"

There -should- be both!
I -may- be just a little cynical.

Should there be? It's a lighthearted literary spoof of old-fashioned pin-up calendars. Do those have men?

I have the calendar, just showed up last week, and believe me the artwork is gorgeous, everything is tastefully done. And as for having another specific men calendar in the same vein, I don't see why not.

I think I'd buy the male pinup over the female one...or buy both. And yes, there's vintage male pinups. Not as many, not as famous, but they do exist.

I have a copy of the calendar. I mean, hell. One of my best friends was one of the models for it.

As to male vs. female, I'll buy the female one for myself every time. That's just the way I'm wired. But I'd definitely buy a male one for more than a few friends I can think of off the top of my head.
