Forever Butt Hardcover – January 7, 2015
Pocket-sized, pink and super gay, the first issue of BUTT magazine arrived in the spring of 2001, sweeping aside the clichés of the mainstream homo press. Ever since, BUTT has maintained its independence, resisting clean-cut commercialism in favor of frank Q&As, revealing photography and a delightfully direct take on sex between men. Just by being its horny, happy self, BUTT has attracted contributions from the world’s best writers and photographers. Meanwhile, frequent BUTT parties and the CLUB BUTT social network have mobilized an international army of loyal friends and fans in sexy solidarity.
This meaty anthology, FOREVER BUTT, revisits some of the magazine’s finest and most thrilling moments from more than a decade in print. Material from now rare and collectible editions of BUTT is here made available again here, including sexy pictures, and candid interviews with such spectacular men as Gore Vidal, François Sagat, Marc Jacobs and Your Big Dick Host. In true BUTT style, the book not only celebrates sex as something joyous, social and silly while but is also, as artist Wolfgang Tillmans writes in his introduction, “first and foremost an exhilarating read”.
With sexy pictures of, and candid interviews with: AA Bronson, Aiden Shaw, Andy Butler, Bernhard Willhelm, Bruce LaBruce, Christopher Ciccone, Dennis Cooper, Didier Lestrade, Don Bachardy, Ed Droste, Edmund White, Francesco Vezzoli, François Sagat, Gore Vidal, Jason Whipple, Javier Peres, Jayne County, Joe Gage, John Holland, John Waters, Jonny Wooster, Julian Ganio, Karl Kolbitz, Marc Jacobs, Marco Flores, Nico Muhly, Paul Antonio, Paul Mpagi Sepuya, Perez Hilton, Greek Pete, Rick Owens, Roger Payne, Rosa von Praunheim, Ryan Trecartin, Slava Mogutin, Stephen Galloway, Stephin Merritt, Tommy DeLuca, Ian & Marc Hundley, Vince Aletti, Walter Pfeiffer and Wolfgang Tillmans.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2015I love the pictures and the stories. There are historic figures in the book like John Waters. There is quite a bit of nudity. I bought it because of the title and the cover. The hairy guy on the jacket cover is Jason Whipple. They have a nice spread of him in the book. I also like that he is into books. The book lives up to its name as the best and baddest of butt magazine. There are gay parents in the book. They are Rick and Daren from Dallas. The interviews are interesting. It ends with an index of the 29 BUTT magazines that they made. I would recommend this book. I even liked the smell of the book.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2017Perfect condition and full of great images and cool articles. This book is at a level of cool I didn't even know existed anymore. If you like a bit of smut and unique interviews this is the place to start.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2016I'm having a really good time reading this!! You can meet a guy who's a specialist in butt massage, a guy who doesn't change hsi sheets for 11 years and a gay porn star who's in vacation with his mother! Where else??
- Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2020The media could not be loaded.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2015I just now started really getting into the book. Obviously the pictures are kind of destructing, but once you get pass that, the writing is very good. I saw this book in London but then ordered it online. What made me buy the book in the first place is the interesting angles that the pictures were taken. I just love it. Now that I'm actually owning the book and reading it, I started to pay attention to the different variety of guys that are shown there and interviewed and it made me love the book even more. I truly recommend it.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2016I am upset that I completely missed this publication when it was active! Thankfully this compilation exists! So far a great read - can't put it down.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2017Full of great interviews with some of the most interesting queer culture influencers. More dong-tastic photos than anticipated. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2018Great book about much underground gay life I never knew about. Thanks!

5.0 out of 5 stars Histoire de relever le niveau de l'évaluation de ce livre
Anthologie d'entretiens avec une poignée de figures lgbtqi importantes. Si vous savez ce que vous achetez (contrairement au commentaire "une étoile" d'une cécité à tomber par terre), vous ne serez pas déçu.e.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very much enjoying the read
Loving reading this. The hard back version feels a pleasing well designed object also.
My only weeny gripe is a couple (literally 2-3) of the articles which appeared in the 1st Butt Book are reproduced again in this 2nd Butt Book and i think that's a bit odd but it doesn't hurt as there's lots to dip into.
If the first Butt book is anything to go buy, a 2nd hand copy of this book in 10-15 years time will be worth £100-£200 so buy yours while it's cheap !
