For a guy, Buck Angel has an awesome vagina.

"Vagina — I hate the word vagina," says pornographer/educator Buck Angel. "I prefer to use the word 'pussy.' 'Vagina,' it seems so yucky. No wonder people can't wrap their minds around it. It's not cute."
Sorry, let me start again. For a guy, Buck Angel has an awesome pussy. And let me preface that by saying I don't recommend Googling "Buck Angel" if you are at work, around children, or are offended by hardcore gay sex starring one of the world's most influential transsexual artists. Actually, I take that back — go ahead. Get decadent.

Angel, who is the headline speaker at Exposure: Edmonton's Queer Arts and Culture Festival, is a study in contrasts. At an early age, he knew something was different about himself. His inside didn't match his outside, and that feeling of "wrongness" only grew as he got older. Drinking and drugs worked for a while as a coping mechanism, but he knew he had to make a decision. Well, he had to make several.

That's a good interview.
I have even more respect for the man now.

Queermonton: BUCK ANGEL
Shattered preconceptions

I had a lot of preconceptions before meeting Buck Angel, international porn star and self-described "man with a pussy." All his pictures feature a burly figure covered in tattoos, with a tough sneer and a cigar hanging out of his mouth. His porn is rough and real and so is his industry. About the very last thing I expected was a warm, friendly and perceptive man who's making adult films that are about so much more than just getting people off.

Buck was in town for the Exposure Festival, where he opened the week at Metro with an eye-opening film showcasing both scenes from his movies and interview snippets from his years in the industry. This was followed by a panel discussion and a meet-and-greet at Boots where everyone in the bar immediately fell in love with his outgoing and magnetic personality. The next day he did a DVD signing and then was showcased in the Loud & Queer Cabaret. By the time I interviewed him, it was his last night here and he was preparing for his piece at SteamWorks, the bathhouse closing that night for an art show.
