Man Crush Thursday: Laith Ashley

Man Crush Thursday: Laith Ashley

Transgender model Laith Ashley recently covered the June issue of Attitude magazine. Laith Ashley 01

Ashley first came to the world’s attention in Barneys New York’s groundbreaking Brother, Sisters, Sons & Daughters campaign, shot by Bruce Weber and featuring other models who happened to be trans. However, as he tells trans activist Paris Lees, the spotlight had a darker side.

“People were really nasty and for about three weeks, I just couldn’t stop reading the comments,” Ashley said of the Instagram trolls. “I knew I shouldn’t have, but I kept reading and the more I read, the worse the comments got.

“I’ve learned that you can’t please everyone.”

Well, fuck everyone ’cause we’re pleased. I know I am. Dude is gorgeous, more man than most biologically born males!Laith Ashley 02

But, as he went on to reveal, Laith learned to love himself and ignore the haters through therapy. “I would self-destruct, I would disappear because I didn’t want to be here. For a long time I prayed to God to let me die,” he said. “I’d think I hate life, hate being trans, hate the world. I was very negative. I still struggle with that from time to time but remind myself I’m pretty blessed. I have a family who [is] supportive. They may not agree with who I am, but they do love me. I had the privilege of going to school. I have the privilege of this experience. I love who I see in the mirror now.”

We love who we see too. 😉 Laith Ashley 04Laith Ashley 06Laith Ashley 08Laith Ashley 09

    There is penile construction surgery… I have seen some of the procedure on U-tube. They cut some roll of skin from the fore-arm together with its nerve, then they use it to construct a phallus

    And Even Colossus went “wow”! This is serious!

    I’ve been stalking this dude all my life! Or lets just say all my IG life. And I still can’t wrap my head around the fact that a guy who was a former woman looks greater, better and super hotter **looking at those lips and fanning flush face rapidly** than the ones that claim “natural/authentic”? Like, i just dont get it **stares @ my skinny arms and narrow shoulder sadly**. Check out the body bikonu! It is not fair oh!

    Well, What can I say, once you r done Pinky, just pass him along. **looking around** Who is after sack?

      A bit of surgery, hormones and sprinkle some photoshop effects, and you too can achieve the same look.

        Dr. Gullible, for videos a video editor would use a video centric program rather than Photoshop. ????

      Does it really matter? We talking about his gender identity not hs sexuality, if he still likes dick, no b awa mata

    This all really confusing…So making an artificial dick is possible?i guess it will be ugly looking tho.It really doesnt make any sense cos whats the point if you cant get it up?even if gets up whats the point if orgasm cant be acheived?abeg its better to remain in which ever gender God created you.

    Orgasm is too sweet to pass up for eternity.To me whats the point of working hard all your life and then becoming rich and able to afford most things you need but cant ever have good sex?Life is all about good food,wine,cool friends and awesome sex over and over again.

    I guess the satisfaction they derive from switching gender is more of psychological than physical.

      Ur last paragraph is the only thing that makes sense in that thing you put up there.

    • Your comment makes zero sense. Is your entire purpose in life to fuck and be fucked? Do you not realise there is more to life than ejaculating? Is his asshole blocked from being pleasured? Your comment is as shallow as it is stupid.

      What in God’s name are you even saying, posh? Do you realize the roundabout manner with which you validated the views of a transphobic person? If you don’t understand the struggles of a transgender, shut it. Instead of coming and talking about how its better to remain in whichever gender God created you. How faithful are you being to God’s creation by fucking your fellow man?
      Just imagine.
