Freshmen is an American erotic magazine published monthly by Specialty Publications, a division of LPI Media, and founded in 1991.

The magazine is geared toward homosexual and bisexual men, and features photos of males aged 18-30 years old. Freshmen has long been the best-seller in its genre^{[citation needed]} and features top-line male porn models from Bel Ami, Falcon, and others. Other items, such as calendars and playing cards, are also published using the same label.

The magazine contains nude male photography, erotic fiction, video reviews, and other adult features. The magazine specializes in young but not twinkish men, primarily age 18 to 25 but some to age 30.

Specialty Publications also publishes Men magazine, which is in the same format but portrays men aged 25 to 40.

[edit] Freshman of the Year

The magazine holds an annual contest in which subscribers can vote for their favorite "freshman" of the year. Many fledgling porn stars have been featured here, and some, such as such as Roman Heart (2006)^[1], Sebastian Bonnet (2004), Marcus Allen (2003)^[2], and Billy Brandt (2002)^[3] have gone on to greater success.
