In an interview with Gay Times, Christopher Kang, 1st XC player of The Kings Cross Steelers, said βI see myself as a pretty average looking-dude so I donβt really see myself as a pin-up anything β¦ So Iβm chuffed that Iβve had the good fortune of joining a long line of Meat magazine dudes alongside so many of my fellow Steelers. The Steelers has not only helped pave the way for inclusive rugby teams but also helped hanged perceptions about gay sportsmen.β
Alex Smith, Chairman of the Kings Cross Steelers added, βDespite so much progress over the last 20 years, it can still be very difficult to be an out gay man, made even more so by a lot of unhelpful noise around how to be, act or look within the community. Thatβs why Iβm proud that the Kings Cross Steelers have partnered with Meat to help show that anyone can be a pin-up by simply being yourself.β You can watch the newest teaser below!
