I have very fond memories of watching weekend afternoon reruns of "Tarzan" when I was around age 12 to 14 years old.
I believe his stint as “Tarzan” ran from ’66 through ’68.
At the time, I didn’t exactly understand why I was so drawn to him, but I sure do now.
That handsome face, those lips, his hair.
And that very daring and teasing loin cloth!
And that very daring and teasing loin cloth!
I vaguely remember often visualizing rescue scenarios as I was falling asleep at night, imagining him as my hunky older savior.
This is probably why I’ve always preferred men a bit older than me.

My favorite Tarzan, too. I met Ron Ely last year and you know what, at his age, he looks pretty foxy!
Our experiences were very similar. By the time I realized why I was watching the show, I felt like I had to watch it in private or else it would be too obvious to anyone in the room. I would channel surf anytime my brother or parents walked in.
