In his childhood, he drew pictures of naked men. While drawing, he wore only leather boots.
As a young man, he fought in the war and had sex with his fellow soldiers, both Finnish and German.
During his adulthood, he lived a double life. By day, a talented advertising artist and a pianist,
by night a genius creator of erotic drawings.
We remember him through leather, huge muscles, even larger cocks and humour -- empowering the masculine gay man.
We know who Tom of Finland is.

Ashamed of being gay, Touko draws erotic pictures of muscular men to release his sexual tension. Through his art he becomes an international gay icon, Tom of Finland.
