Wearing no more than an open jacket and a pair of undies, former
English rugby player Ben Cohen covers the latest issue of Gay Times
magazine.
As missions go, Ben Cohen is making the impossible, possible. It's been
a year since Gay Times last met the 33-year-old, 6ft 2ins (188cm), 16
stone (102kg) hunk as he began his post-England rugby career as the
posterboy for anti-homophobia and bullying. In the last 12 months, his
work with the Ben Cohen StandUp Foundation has seen him travel America
and Europe promoting their work and enlisted the support of everyone
from sportsmen to pop stars and even royalty. Now he's teamed up with
Bluebuck to launch his first range of underwear, with the profits going
towards the foundation. "I think the most important thing about it is
that I', straight and promoting a foundation that anti-homophobia,"
explains Ben. "I'm bridging the gap between gay and straight. And I
think straight people are more likely to listen when they see me
breaking down stereotypes." Full interview here!
