Tom of Finland (real name Touko Laaksonen) is one of the most famous artists of gay men in history, and the modern Trope Codifier of the Manly Gay trope. He specialized in drawing sailors and leather-clad bikers... with Raging Stiffies in their pants. He also loved to draw lumberjacks and construction workers.
