From the late 1980s, a number of gay magazines and newspapers featured homoerotic nude or partially clothed male models but were not classified as pornography, for example Gay Times and QX Magazine. Non-pornographic " beefcake magazines" were widely available, and were generally purchased by gay men. Prior to the 1970s, gay pornography was not widely distributed due to censorship laws. Some magazines are very general in their variety of illustrations, while others may be more specific and focus on particular activities or fetishes. These magazines primarily serve to stimulate sexual thoughts and emotions. Such publications provide photographs or other illustrations of nudity and sexual activities, including oral sex, anal sex, and other various forms of such activities. These magazines are targeted to gay and bisexual men, although they may also have some female readers, and may include male-male and occasionally male-male-female content and/or male-female content. Gay pornographic magazines, sometimes known as adult magazines or gay sex magazines, contain content of a sexual nature, typically regarded as pornography, that relates to men having sex with men.
