Colin and What's his name

[mikeyank]

This whole thing about being negative about what Jimmy says or doesn't say is like the Tea Party; It's my way or no way, rather than accepting each individual model on here as who he is, rather than what we want them to be. We have to see the tree through the forest guys. Jimmy's comments were not rude nor the concept of him being overly straight, as I viewed them. As far as the limp dick, who, in all honesty, hasn't ever had that happen to them while doing it with someone the first time and they don't do something we are exactly use to? Jimmy went limp, but came right back. The only thing I read here in ref. to Jimmy by some are over critical guys.

Thank you for saying what you did, David. As I've been reading the bigoted, negative anti-Jimmy comments by the same few, over and over, I have thought several times that they remind me of the Tea Party folks. That is interesting that you had the same thought.

If I don't like a model, I may say it once, or perhaps not even comment on it. But the Jimmy bashers here remind me of the Obama bashers, who keep it up over and over again, with a nasty accusatory tone. Enough. We get your point. I respectfully disagree. Case closed.

Mike, I agree. It's sort of like the models telling us they are straight with every sentence that comes out of their mouths. WE KNOW, ALREADY.

I am not a member of the Tea Party in any way, shape, or form. The fact I don't like a certain model is not only my right, but the truth for me. I am sorry that personal attacks are OK if you disagree with me, but take note, I don't criticize anyone for their opinion.
As I have said in the past,"Jimmy is probably a nice guy in Person and away from BSBII I would like to meet him." That does not change my opinion of his work. One other thing, I have complemented Jimmy in the past.

It's all in the tone of the criticism Tobey, that differentiates between a poster giving his honest opinion, and a sarcastic, mean-spirited attack, which is often the tone of both "tea partiers" in politics, and with the few vocal "Jimmy haters" on this site.

I can understand if Jimmy is not the type of model whose work you enjoy on Broke Straight Boys, as I recognize that many member's of this site prefer to see tender "love making" over raw sex, and you are as entitled to that opinion as I am to mine.

The whole purpose of this forum is to give us a platform to vocalize our opinions, which can be divergent, as long as they are presented in a respectful manner. In fact the forum would be quite boring, if we all agreed on everything, and the forum was merely a platform to say how wonderful everything is.

I am new to this forum and this is my first post. Usually in thecourse of posts my opinion is well represented so I don't post. But I have to this time. My favorite kind of porn is amateur, with straight guys. I've seen a lot of it. I have never come across a less interested model than Jimmy. I haven't seen all his work on the site, but I've seen enough. I was looking forward to Colin's next adventure (frankly I think he has been watching gay porn to prepare for his scenes) but Jimmy totally ruined the sexy posssibilities. He goes at sex (not love making) like his cock is a meat ax. He interjects comments that totally distract from the sex and is definitely overplaying the straight card to the extent I suspect he is at least bi and is afraid someone is going to find out. Colin deserved a better partner. Jimmy needs to like what he is doing or find another way to make money. He is not earning it here.

Hi Larkster,

Welcome to the forum. It is always great to have new folks joining us here, expressing their point's of view. If you read through the various "Jimmy" threads, you will find that there are a segment of poster's here, who share your opinion to varying extents. But you will also find that many, including myself, enjoy Jimmy very much. He has been one of the most polarizing model's that I can recall on this site, for as long as I've been a member.

While you and other's feel that he is not "earning" his money here, many of us look forward to, and enjoy his scene's very much. You feel that his comments are distracting, while I find them amusing and even "charming". But sexual desire, and taste are all so subjective.

There are many model's who have been considered "hot" here over the years who I find totally non-sexual and unappealing. I usually skip over their scene's or watch with the fast forward control in my hand.

My opinion is that it is all good, and with three updates a week, and my understanding of the wide spectrum of member's here, all with our own idea of what is hot and what is not, I find the over-all product entertaining and arousing, and that is why I've been a loyal member for so long.

Thank's for joining us, and perhaps you will take Slimvintage's suggestion and post on the "10 Random Facts" thread on the other side of the board. I look forward to reading your post's, as I enjoy hearing all points of view, on all subjects, as long as the tone is respectful.

 

[slimvintage]

As everyone who has had to put up with me for the last three years on the forum knows, I love to read a good post. I'm not the only one nowadays who actually gives a thumbs up to an especially elegant riff, some piece of criticism or humor or rant about injustice or any of the many the absurdities that can crop up on this site, that's well written or at least well expressed.

Management prefers that people make nice here, but I have ta tell ya: sometimes nice gets in the way of creativity.

Gay people have a natural aversion to bullies since most of us have suffered at one time or another from the attempt by someone who despises us to make us feel bad about ourselves. So bullying is bad. Disrespect is bad by the same token. Kindness is good but sometimes clashes with sincere opinion. "Positive criticism" is good, but the term may be misunderstood on this forum. If I told you all the reasons why I hated an episode but then told you point by point how I thought it could be improved, would that fit the forum definition of positive criticism? Or would that be un-nice? Do I get to critique every episode, or ought I to keep schtum if there are things in a new episode I'd already criticized in a previous one and so would only be repeating myself? How dishonest is it to management to hold my tongue when I think some heavy criticism might be useful to them? After all it's one of the principal reasons they set this forum up in the first place. In journalism there's such a thing a self-censorship. Out of respect for the feelings of others, or national security, or good manners, those guys sometimes observe some self imposed rules that the whole community agrees on. When can I create some mischief on the forum and when do I have to send a boring PM to management instead?

What is OK to say in a critique of an episode, and what should be taboo?

 

[Ms. Kianna]

Like it, dislike it, like it, dislike it...........There are as many opinions of a scene as there are people that give them.

Management has asked us not to, and stated that they will not tolerate, personal attacks on other members or staff. I completely agree, that there is no need for name calling and attacking on the forum. Criticizing a scene is not attacking, neither is criticizing a models work.

There are lovers, and not lovers, of every model on Broke Straight Boys, but both sides are very vocal, when it comes to Jimmy. And both sides of that argument want to keep defending their opinion................

The job of management sucks. You want straight guys, but Jimmy is too straight, and macho acting, and protests too much........

You want hot sex, but you miss the slow progression of a model.........

Yes, Colin could have made a film melting video with Mick, Kevin, Mark, Jason, or ____________. BUT, if we want a slower progression, should they make one of those pairings right out of the gate?

Mark and Clay could spend so much time second guessing there decisions, that they never film any updates..........Then there would be something to complain about, that we all agree on.

 

[tampa24]

I'm sure it seems to mgmt to be a thankless task. haha As long as they go with what they think will please the largest segment of the overall membership...(and not just those who post on the forum), I think they'll be fine. They can't possibly cater to every fetish or viewer preference.

 

[balboa]

I have been posting on gay porn blogs regularly for about a year now. And one thing I've come to realize is that, as Slim mentions, sexual attraction and preferences are very subjective. I have seen absolutely beautiful men be called ugly by some posters (not on this forum) and I think, 'how can they think that?'. As an artistic sort, I used to think that beauty was absolute. But I realize it truly is in the eye of the beholder. What I deem beautiful, someone else could care less. My point is, as much as I dislike "porn Jimmy", I also recognize that others find his performances arousing, and his demeanor charming, and for that reason, I hope he has a long stint here at Broke Straight Boys

So, I'm going to enjoy the Jimmy I see on the bts and either skip or "skim" through his videos and let others enjoy them. After all, we're all paying members and are entitled to those things we enjoy on this site.

 

[KJNoble]

This scene accomplished, as it was stated, to teach Colin how to give a BJ. Jimmy was a great instructor if this was Colin's first time. If it wasn't then Jimmy got a good BJ and he seemed to enjoy it, as he stated. I did not notice ANY of what some have mentioned on here Jimmy "over mentioning" his being straight. For me it was just part of the conversation at the time. I believe that some of the guys on here were so "turned off" in the beginning of Jimmy's career on here attitude wise that they can't see how much he has grown/change in these scene. Needless to say, I like Jimmy and think he has come a long way. As someone mentioned he has a unique sense of humor, Colin laugh at it and why can't we instead of condemning Jimmy for it. Colin did a great job and I am sure he is a great addition to Broke Straight Boys. Thanks for the great show to both Jimmy and Colin.

I agree! I thought that Jimmy was great. He and Colin looked good together. Jimmy was engaging and, as usual, gave us a great performance. Keep up the excellent work Jimmy! I look forward to all new scenes in which you star.

Hi MikeYank,

Thanks for the welcome. I'm not a prolific poster, so you won't see a lot from me. If I see posts that express my opinion then I will be satisfied not to comment. I'm more likely to post about something outstandingly good than anything negative. So, again, thanks.

 

[RSand88]

I just cannot get myself t give 5-star rating to any scene that includes Jimmy.

Some seem to like his personality, mentioning he has improved (could hardly have gone down from his original minus 5).

He has and still does turn me off, but management evidently likes and will continue to coddle him, I suppose. That is their right.

But if we would start seeing less and less of him, I certainly would not be sad,

I am sorry that you feel that,'what's his name" is rude. I used that phrase to convey my feelings. Jimmy's remark, " Move your hand, The members want to see my cock" shows his over sized ego. He has a cock, like all men do, but it is nothing special in gay porn. I would rather see Kevin, Mick, Bobby, Jason, to name some at BSBII. Then there are guys in the porn industry that are super hung, like Casey Wood and Matt Hughes 11 plus and thick.
Don't forget Mike Robbins, who had a nice personality, sense of humor, and fun to watch. May he RIP.
Just so every one knows I respect all the other models, past and present, Mark, Clay, and all the other members of the forum.
PS
I used to work in the industry to stop copyright infringement to protect porn stars from unlicensed use of property, and to stop using pictures in ways other then there controlled use.
Thanks
Ed

Ed, did you get a chance to read Colin's remarks about Jimmy. I understand you do not like the guy, but I think some might get the wrong view point of him, just because they already have formed the feelings of "dislike" for the guy. He was rude in the beginning, BUT has changed a lot. Besides reading Colin's remarks about Jimmy read some of the articles on Jimmy's postings. While I am not trying to change your opinion, maybe you will be able to see both side of Jimmy????? David

 

[david367]

Read what Colin says about as you say, "cold bones"

I have to agree with most members re the Colin / Jimmy Video, Colin comes across as a really nice fun guy, and Jimmy just plain rude and very disrespectful toward Colin. IT was a very hard video for me to rate i gave it a 4 after all Colin was excellent in every way. Colin aka Mr sexy please come back and do more, and ask to work (play) with Jack again. I wanna sparks fly. Stay way from cold bones next time. lol

Some of us watch with preconceived ideas of who or what a model might be, but when the other model, Colin, says no that is not true..those with negative ideas about Jimmy doesn't change.. Colin, the model says Jimmy is very helpful, made him feel at home and relaxing, and liked his humor, Yet some members still say he's rude; To whom.. not the other model...maybe to what some have preconceived him as and will not look at the truth. Just give these guys a fair chance.. Jimmy is not being rude, maybe not what you want to see or like, but I believe Colin statement proves it that he is not rude....

 

[slimvintage]

I frankly haven't read every single word of the Jimmy debate so I might be repeating what a quicker mind than mine has already noticed:

Jimmy was obviously adored by the recruiting and production teams during the runup to BSB2. They thought they'd found a little whiteboy straightie from the deep south with a cute ass, good mind and clever swagger that all the punters were gonna fall in love with once his videos were released. "What we love about you Ralphie" (Ralphie may not be his real name, but...) "is that you're so fuckin' straight, man, you're so totally not a fag, like even off the set, dude, you're almost a fuckin' homophobe. In a nice way of course. We all love that man. We love it. Don't we guys?"

Ralphie believed them. He took on a persona. "Perfect Ralph man, a deep sigh, brilliant. You can do that more than once if it comes naturally." He learned the mantra, "Dude. Hang on a sec here. I mean, like, no, don't thank Clay for the good times, tell him it's all about the money. Remember, all about the money. You can remember that, right?"

So, as he was learning the ropes he also picked up on the adulation from management. They were sure he was gonna take Broke Straight Boys to unheard of popularity, that he was some kind of stellar phenomenon, like a whole planet made out of diamond!!

I personally think it all went to his head and this is what we got. If he hadn't been made to believe that he was given to Blu by god as the sure salvation of the website, we'd have had a cool brokie with the look of a young welterweight who would have "done the progression" over the course of 4 or 5 episodes, got fucked, and never seemed to diss a soul.

Of course I could be wrong.

Celebrity

I just did a little Broke Straight Boys forum research, (a favorite subject of mine). Jimmy & Colin debuted on August 20, and now it is now six days later, and that thread has 21 posts. And now this thread which by it's very title, "Colin and What's his name" is a putdown of Jimmy, now has 37 posts in six days. That is in addition to Jimmy discussions on other threads as well, since the scene was released

My point is that Jimmy really is a "star" here. He has very passionate admirers and detractors. And that tells me that people care about him. If he was just another mediocre model who appears on the site, there would be very few posts and in short order, the thread would die. But Jimmy gets a reaction, and that tells me he is a celebrity in Broke Straight Boys land.

Many "celebrities" are hated more than loved, but people talk about them and they appear in the gossip magazines and on tabloid style television shows. As they say, "I don't care what you say about me, just spell my name right". Many people will say that they hate them, but people watch them and talk about them. Whether you like them or dislike them, they attract an opinion.

So if the forum members have this much to say about Jimmy, I'd say he has been a success for Mark and company.

Mike, I totally get what you're saying, and I agree. Jimmy, whether you like him or not, he always generates a spirited discussion whenever he appears. Look at George W. He certainly got lots of press from the news, pundits, etc. And a whole lot from tons of comedians (still does). I'm sure a lot of those people liked him as a person, but thought he was a terrible president. Just sayin'.

 

[SGVBOB]

OH BOY, here goes my 'cyber-image', LOL! BUT, I have to disagree here. You get (almost) ANY straight man, who has not has sex in awhile, and AS LONG AS it is on the d/l (down-low), then all systems go for the gay guy to give a bj to the 'straightie', or avail himself of his fucking (BTW, I used that in quotes, because HE refused to consider himself 'bi', w/ homo tendencies).....

Straight men are a challenge for any gay person. Colin was great and very approachable. He may be the kind of guy you can chalk-up a conversation very easily. Jimmy is another item. He has "attitude" and may not be as easy to approach as Colin. I think it may be that Jimmy just has a different sense of humor or he's just too blatantly honest with his feelings. But whatever it's Jimmy's body and especially his beautiful dick that I covet. Did I say he fucks well too?

I must congratulate you Bob, and tip my cap to you, if you can "You get (almost) ANY straight man, who has not has sex in awhile".

You are my hero. And I'd sure love to hear about some of your experiences. You seem to be living the dream life that I've always wished that I had.
