On this edition of the HOT8, we caught up with comedy chap and GLUE columnist Mark Bittlestone. Take a look at his weekly feature, 5 Straight-Up Gay Ways… here

 

1) Name, age and basic stats?

Mark Bittlestone, 28, G-A-Y, he/him.

 

2) Where do you call home?

I grew up in Wimbledon, Southwest London and I live in Brixton, South London, now.

 

3) A random fact about me is…

I’m not ticklish AT ALL like run your hands all over my body and I will not flinch 🤪

 

4) My ideal first date usually involves…

Somewhat boringly, I’m a fan of unambitious first dates. Realistically if it’s going to work out you’re going to need to be able to hold a conversation with that person so somewhere you can do that helps…. Take me for a drink at a cool bar somewhere xx
 

 

5) My favourite quality in a person is definitely…

A good sense of humour (by which I mean, they have to find me really, really funny or it’s a non-starter)

 

6) My type is…

I normally go for boys who are pretty but boring, to be totally honest. Although currently bucked the trend and dating someone fun but ugly (that’s a joke, he’s gorj)! Top/vers/bttm I don’t mind, I’ve been in relationships where I’ve been pure top, pure bottom, or vers, so I’m chilled.

 

7) Four words that put me in the mood for sex…

“I support wealth/income redistribution”.

 

8) I knew I was LGBT+ when…

I had a wank (jerked off) over an erotic story in a porn mag about the best man shagging the bride, but I was obviously the bride 😜
