Bowflex boy, found

Back in July, I wrote a post called “Bowflex Boy” and Kristy McNichol: desire, celebrity, and the sexiness of earthy reality. It got a lot of comments, but at the time, I couldn’t find any of the 1980s-era photos of “Bowflex Boy”, who “caused” me a brief and intense period of insecurity. There were many pictures in the ad campaign, but reader Sarah has tracked down one image that closely matches my memory, and she sent me the link tonight, and here it is. The story is now complete.

    Ah yes, all the sense memories of painful insecurity are coming back (although they’re hard to distinguish form my current insecurity).
