Hey, Mike,
Sorry for being inordinately harsh, in that last post! I'm a mad Celt, and an altogether too-happy warrior, and sometimes (often) my passions (especially my passion for a model I like) gets the better of me. And my rhetoric is always a little too hot, by half ;-)
Mike,
indeed I DO think you're a wonderful person - and I actually
do have a genuine appreciation for your fetish for straight guys, and sympathize with it. And even though a fetish for guys who are straight,
per se, isn't one of my 1,000 fetishes - I DO find the idea of a beautiful straight guy who is willing to be flexible, and "play" for a bit, a pretty hot scenario ;-) I respect this fetish, and am glad to support you in it. (Because, I like all my friends to be as happy, as possible!)
What kind of pushed me to make the comments I did (and it's no fault of yours, your comments were completely innocent, really) are a couple of perceptions which lurk in the back of my arctic brain, which others may, or may not, share:
1.) I think Jake has been fundamentally misjudged. I have a friend, who is a famous French physician, who "reads" people visually - by looking into their eyes, watching their gestures and movements, and that sort of thing. Having had many years' studying people's VOICES, I do the same sort of thing,
aurally ~ not infallibly, of course, but with a measure of accuracy over the years, which I think is at least significantly greater than
chance.
My sense (after having heard his interview) is that, whatever he has done for money in the past, Jake is one of the "straighter" models we've had on here, for awhile. Notwithstanding his previous videographic endeavours. Which was one reason I was taken aback, when so many people didn't like him, because of the "white lie" (or whatever colour you wish to ascribe to it) that he told management.
2.) There are many 'posters', here and elsewhere, who contend that if one has once (or thrice) sucked another man's penis, or been f***ed by another guy. . . there is no way one can possibly be straight. This is a classic, Skinnerian, behaviorist view, and I don't subscribe to it, at all.
I believe that the WHOLE (or at least the greater part, by far) of sexual orientation resides not in the gentalia, but in the heart and MIND - such that, on the spur of the moment (or for needed cash) I could offer the most lavish cunnilingus to a woman, or even intercourse: and not truly be considered "straight", at all. (Because, I
wouldn't be.) I think the same holds true for straight boys, like Jake (perhaps) is.
3.) I surmise that Jake indulged in his little mendacity,
precisely in order to advance his career (a career he says he wants, in erotic video) with a BETTER COMPANY than the one he started out with. (And we all know that gay erotic video pays better than straight erotic video, for handsome young men.)
As we know (or at least have an idea) from previous BTS videos -
Broke Straight Boys is pretty caring about its models in terms of testing, and health issues. . . And, because it is one of the larger sites on earth, may very well offer a little more in compensation, too. I think that Jake perhaps wanted to work with a better company than the less-than-satisfactory one he'd been working with, knew the
mythos upon which
Broke Straight Boys is founded, and perhaps tried to sneak in under the radar. I don't blame him, for this.
What I would suggest is that, I imagine, MANY other models have managed to "sneak under the radar", quite successfully - and some of them, were well-known to have had sex with other men before they came here. . . my revered Danny, for example, had done videos for
College Boy Physicals, and been pounded quite vigorously - - - well before he came to
Broke Straight Boys, and batted his dark eyelashes at the cam, and when David asked him. . . "Would you suck another guy???", replied,
"Well. . . I dunno. . . that might be going JUST A BIT TOO FAR!" LOL!
4.) As I've said many times before, but will say again, now. . . it is a matter of continual amazement to me that there are
diametrically opposite patterns of model-mendacity, on the European and American sites, I've patronized, over the years. And I find this fascinating.
On the European sites, most of the models who chat with members, lie and say that they are GAY (and usually, they are NOT) - because, the members would be heartbroken and disappointed, if they found out their idols were STRAIGHT. (I guess this is exactly the opposite fetish to yours, Mike, and I presume it has to do with certain cultural variables. A lot of Western European countries having been more open than ours, for a little bit longer. . . the members want to feel that they might actually have a
chance with someone as beautiful as the models, they adore.)
On the American sites, by contrast, most of the few models who happen to be gay or bisexual (who are still in a statistical minority, both on the sites, and in the population as a WHOLE. . . you are never going to run out of cute straight boys, Mike!) feel constrained to lie and say that they are STRAIGHT - because the members would be heartbroken, if they found out their idols were GAY, or BISEXUAL.
To me, the kind of social pressure which comes from members (on both sides of the Atlantic) for models to declare feelings which are other than their own, is like a kind of "mini-persecution" which (albeit much milder, and totally innocent in intention) is not unlike the pressure some of us had to bear to live in the "closet", as youngsters.
This is one reason, incidentally, that I admire
Jason Matthews, so much. He is absolutely fearless, and has had the courage to declare that he is PAN-SEXUAL, and loves to sleep with men AND WOMEN, and with his beauty and mischief and superb sexual technique. . . it seems to me that his popularity has never suffered a whit, for his honesty ;-) I admire people like that, who can make people love them, for JUST WHO THEY ARE ;-)
5.) But again, I'll suggest to you, Mike, that I believe our new model, Jake, is (I think) amongst the
LEAST GAY models we've had, in many a year. I may be wrong, in which case I owe you a nice New York steak, and a bottle of Mumm's to go with it. (And I'll deliver - if my surmise is incorrect, and Jake leaves his wife to go off with some sultry fellow-model, from
Broke Straight Boys . .you'll receive a superlative dinner ;-)
I think Jake is certainly
highly sexual, and open-minded and willing to experiment, and intrigued by the idea of FAME - - - and these MAY be faults (but not large ones) - - - and would be a nice friend for any of us to HAVE. . . but if I had five discounted Canadian dollars left in my wallet, to stake on the proposition that he would become GAY, and end up loving another man. . . I really wouldn't risk it ;-)
5.) While I totally "get" the idea of guys having straight-boy fantasies, one thing I DO NOT get is why some people are disappointed in the idea of a straight boy who is hetero-flexible enough to play with another man (for fun or money): having done something sexually with another man, two months ago, that they are dying to see him do
again,
two months HENCE. Just because they have been fed a confected story about his " gradual evolution" into the joy of gay sex ;-))) This doesn't really make sense, to me.
For sure, I think there are some GENUINELY straight boys, who would never have an emotional or physical REAL LOVE, with anyone but a WOMAN, who are willing to experiment and play, and have purely physical fun, with another guy, for our benefit.
And maybe there are a COUPLE of boys like that, who are discovered first (and virginally) on this site. (And who discover that FIRST, here.) But I believe, quite sincerely, that most straight boys who are
THAT ADVENTUROUS, have (by the time they come to
Broke Straight Boys) either seriously thought about it, or more than likely TRIED IT, by the time they come here!!! Because that combination of sexual self-security, and boldness in adventure, is a unique constellation of personality-traits, which is really quite RARE.
I would suggest, Mike, that the kind of straight guys who are as bold and adventurous and carefree as to be willing to try the things we like to see here. . . have likely tried it ONCE or TWICE, in the past.
6.) Mike, I apologize - I didn't want to put the whole burden of Jake's reception, upon YOU. You like the models you like, as do I (and as does everyone on here). If a model's back-story kills the buzz for you, that is your business. I don't know - there might be certain model back-stories which would kill the buzz, for ME, TOO.
But, I will say, in all honesty - Jake's beauty and charm and good-natured demeanour truly appeal to me. I think he has a LOT of the qualities which would and WILL appeal most, to those who love TRULY straight boys. . . and really beautiful, "star" performers are rare on ANY SITE. . . and I think it would be a shame if a negative initial reaction from well-respected and longtime members, based on past career appearances. . . . convinced the management that Jake was someone members here didn't
want to SEE, anymore.
Because I'd certainly like to see Jake, again - - - and, I'll bet that if he has a chance to appear more often, he'll become a
Broke Straight Boys favourite, and greatly loved by a great plurality (if not an absolute majority) of the faithful members, here.
"A" XOXOXOXOXOXOXO
P.S. I apologize again, for the ferocity and harshness of tone, in the previous post,
supra: and I hope I have explained myself a little better this time. A pretty face (let alone a kind heart) - is a terrible thing, to waste.
