He who shall rename nameless, loves wearing his butt floss, and luckily was only too willing to pose for this challenge :-)

I am glad that at least a few people managed to get the giggle they were meant to get.
It is sad that the exact same quality photo with a stunning 19 year old female would have ended up with a MUCH higher score (after deducting points for the flaws such as the post).
There are a number of comments I don't wish to respond to - having to deal with certain attitudes would make me too angry.
About the bedpost: the bedroom is tiny, it is a miracle we managed THAT photo, and we weren't about to move the waterbed for this LOL
The high number of votes is normal for a challenge with few entries, but I am VERY amused to by the unusually high number of views ;-)

It's sad how some people freely insult peers/models just because of their shape. Buddy, don't let those pig headed narrow minded puritans make you feel bad. You are right where you say that it would have scored higher had it been a young slim girl. That's how SAD and IGNORANT society is. You got my thumbs up!
more impact if the bed post was in a different position!!! I think a back, sack and crack waxing would have made more impact as well. I give this a 10... but -1 for the visual imprint on me. = 9
I have to say that THIS is my FAVE shot in the entire bunch!!! I don't care about the lovely backgrounds and lovely set ups...THIS is THE ONE! My only 10 in this challenge!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! I've just spit out diet coke when this one came up on the screen and burst out laughing!!! Congrats too whether this is a self portrait or a model...he's got the guts to be funny and I LOVE IT!~!!!! Way to go!!! :)
This could have been a really funny and nice picture, If you have been more careful about the technicals, like almost blown out highlights on his right leg, But cudos to you and your model for given it a try!
Not an attractive sight, and a pretty revolting title. I presume you are going for the comedic effect, but doesn't work for me. The limp wrist and affected finger poses add nothing. Exposure, focus and composition are all fine, and prevent a low, ow score from me.
Other than this body shouldn't be seen this naked by the general public... I think it could have been better composed without the bed frame in the shot!
