I do like to see a solo with a new model, as we get to find out what he looks like and what he is all about. I also notice his position on the couch, as I find when their asshole is exposed while they are jerking off, it usually, (always?) means that they are very open to ass play and ultimately getting fucked. However for me, as an oral person, the open asshole is almost always a turn-off to me. But I do use it as a gauge to see if he is "my kind of guy".
David, our director from
Broke Straight Boys-1 used to often ask a newbie to stand up and turn around and show us his ass. Sometimes the new model's would bend completely and expose their hole, but more often it would be a quick turn to show their ass cheeks, and David would say, "you show your ass like a straight boy". That would always bring a smile to my face.
I have not yet seen Clay, "touch the goods", but David did it a handful of times, most memorably for me, with Alden, of Robert and Alden, and I believe with
Logan too. Those "touches" received some outrage on the forum, saying that it was gross to see David's older, pudgy hand touching a young man's cock, but those moments were totally HOT to me. I could relate that when a beautiful young guy had his cock hard in his white jockey's, I too wanted to put my older hand on his young meat.
So while solos can get boring, I do find them necessary for me in the process of the "reality show" aspect of
Broke Straight Boys, in getting to know the guy, and try to get a handle on who he is, and if I will be interested to see him come back, and "progress" on the site.
