FeedBritain’s Next Bear Model Competition Begins
Written by NetBear on September 29, 2008 – 1:41 pm -From across Great Britain eight grizzly hopefuls have descended on Manchester to compete for the title of Britain’s Next Bear Model. Who will win?
Eight bears will live together in a fully stocked penthouse apartment with cameras rolling 24/7, catching all the action. It’s a reality show gone bearotic!
This latest furry exploration from Jonathan Robinson looks like it will be a lot of fun to watch unfold. This is only the first of seven episodes, so stay tuned for more!

Ok, hang on.
Now, maybe I’m reading this all wrong and being terribly old-fashioned but if the assumption here is that these guys will all lie around this house and f*ck each other*, isn’t that mildly offensive?
I mean, these guys, like it or not, are representing Bear-dom** (however you define it) and so, by extension, saying that all Bear-dom is is sex. Nothing about celebrating masculinity or giving those who don’t fit the stereotypical gay mold a place where they can be themselves, no no no, its all about being judged by appearance and shagging.
Alright, now that I’ve written it down, it seems a bit of an overreaction since that is exactly what being a bear means to many of us but still, it would nice to hold ourselves to higher standards.
* This is an assumtion but the 24/7 cameras and big box of condoms would seem to suggest that the makers are hoping for some c*ck fun…
** Anytime something beary appears on a non-gay site, they can be regarded as representing bear-dom. Not fun, not right, but true, I think. The average YouTuber could see this and be exposed to bears for the first time and think that this is what we are all about.
Hmm, actualy, I think I’m just taking this all too seriously. So long as everyone’s having fun, its fine by me. :o-)
