'''''Chelsea Boys''''' is a gay-themed comic strip featuring the lives of three roommates in the gay-friendly "Chelsea" district of New York. The main characters are:
 
* Nathan, an "Everyman-type" 40-something Jewish guy, whose semi-normal appearance (he's a short, pudgy guy with a goatee) bely a huge fascination with Barbra Streisand.

Curiously, with a cast like that, it manages to be somewhat down to earth at points, very human, and rather touching. Of course, it's pretty much packed wall-to-wall with [[Fan Service]] of the hunky-male variety, as pretty much everyone outside of the main cast (and a few characters in it) are 100% beefcake, overly-muscled studs, and there's sex scenes galore, falling just short of X-rated.

* [[All Gays Are Promiscuous]]: Soiree, obviously, but a huge chunk of the supporting cast is like this, and even the "normal" members can get this way. Nate's friend all but demands this behavior from him when he discovers Nate's waiting to have sex with his new boyfriend.
* [[All Lesbians Want Kids]]: Side-character lesbian friends of Nate decide to have a baby, using Nate's sperm.
