Author Armistead Maupin has been open about his sexuality since the 1970s, and over the weekend, he shared more details about his relationship with Rock Hudson, who died from complications from AIDS in 1985. In his new video, the Tales of the City author complimented the late iconic Hollywood Golden Age actor on his "legendarily large penis." Maupin explained that he met the actor through his lover, Jack Coates, at a social gathering in San Francisco. At this event, Hudson read the first chapter of Maupin's famous book aloud, which the author figured was Hudson's way of flirting with him. "I kind of think he kind of figured it would get me into bed, and it did."He ended up having a meal with Hudson and his partner, Tom Clark. The three hung out, and Clark called it an early night and went back to the hotel room. Hudson and Maupin followed shortly after and saw him asleep in bed when they arrived. They spent some more time together in the living room, and that's when Hudson made the first move. Maupin said he had a "grand old time making out," but he ended up not having sex because he was too tired and said that sleeping with Hudson was "too intimidating."Maupin said Hudson reassured him, saying he's "just a regular guy," which Maupin quipped back, "Well then, I'm Doris Day." The two "had better luck on subsequent visits," the author said. "He had a legendarily large penis; it wasn't the prettiest one I'd ever seen, but it was definitely the biggest."The two continued to hang out, and Maupin said in the video that Hudson was a "very sweet man" and that the Giant actor "seduced the world, at least the world that I knew, by being so kind and attentive.After Hudson shared with the world that he was living with AIDS in 1985, Maupin outed him and was condemned by other gay men for doing so. He said there was never an official falling out between him and Hudson, but the two didn't see each other after Maupin revealed his sexuality. "When Rocks illness became public, I spoke honestly about who he was and what that life had required of him," he wrote in the video's description, "I didnt realize at the time how controversial that honesty would be, or how deeply it would affect others. Years later, Ive come to understand that telling this story isnt just about memory its about visibility, courage, and the ways we quietly change each others lives. I remain grateful for having known him, and for the lasting mark he left on me."
