Bangladesh

---

Somewhere on the net I came across a headline announcing Bangladeshi Men Are Too Sexy. It was out of Malaysia where presumably there are a large number of Bangladeshi laborers. The story went on to report the concern there that the Bangladeshi workers are stealing the hearts of too many a young Malaysian damsel.

Touché! But I can certainly see how such a thing might happen. I don't know whether many Malaysian lads would have eyes as sweet as Masum's (above right) or lips like Tajrul's (immediate right).

Life for me is quite pleasant when I can entertain visitors such as these, two of the watchmen in my building. 32 y/o Masum is a man seasoned in the craft of maintenance, while 17 y/o Tajrul is his aspiring protégé.

Bangladesh is...

~a country of 150 million people inhabiting a geographically small area of oft flooded land. It is underdeveloped and corruption is rife. But its overflowing population of hard-working young men can be found in other countries across the region, adding to them a pleasant mix of Bangladeshi charm.

I'm charmed!

Laurent G's Male

So much can be said about the photography of Laurent G. It stands out for providing a perspective of male beauty that seems all too rare, while on the other hand a no brainer.

That is to say that the beauty of many young South Asian men is so apparent and easily seen on the streets and other outdoor places of the countries concerned. Yet prudishness in every society, particularly their own, keeps this treasure if not hidden, then unacknowledged.

A casual observer walking the streets or through the villages of Sri Lanka, India, Bangladesh and other South Asian countries will often be drawn by the attractive image of a young man or worker performing some manual or service oriented task, bathing at a river or just passing by.

I am sure this would have been as much the case 100 years ago as it is today.

But where are the photo collections in books or online to display such images when the traveller, visitor or local residents themselves are emboldened enough to snap a photo? Laurent G., thankfully, is one to fill in this gap for us and he does so with both photographic and artistic expertise.

An unselfconscious display of youth and masculinity.
