Models postings

[mikeyank]

I was out of town when the latest forum controversy broke out, and I've spent many hours reading the posts that appear to have lead up to this latest Broke Straight Boys turmoil.

If memory serves me correctly, the earliest model postings were back on what I call "Classic Broke Straight Boys", when Tyler and perhaps Dustin were posting, as well as Cousin Mikey, Mike Robbins, Logan and perhaps a few others. My reaction then, as it remains now is that it creates a slippery slope when the models are posting. I do love to be able to directly communicte with the objects of my lustful desires, over whom I beat off to. This is a thrill and a from of hero worship, much like writing to a movie or television star and receiving a direct responce. It is so cool that they are directly acknowledging my comments to them.

This formula works out fantastically well when we enjoy or even love a particular model. However the slippery slope comes into play when a member of the forum does not enjoy a particular model's work, or even his looks, and as this is a porn site, where the physical looks of the performers are the reasons that we pay to have the opportunity to view them. And so it can get rather uncomfortable to express any negative feelings when the model is question is participating and has the opportunity to respond to our criticism.

I've read other forumites who consider this forum as a way for us to express to management who and what we enjoy to watch on Broke Straight Boys, and perhaps they will make changes according to our posts. I've never expected management to go by my own individual preferences, as I know that the next member may have a totally opposite perspective.

For me, the joy of posting here is to be able to share my thoughts and opinions with the other forumites, and if management or even the models are reading my posts, that is not my purpose or intention of posting. To me, the other members of the forum are far more important to me than the models or even ownership and management of Blu Media. I consider the forum to be a fan gathering point, for me to be able to compare notes with the other paying members of this site. I am a fan of the Yankees and Giants and Duke basketball, and there are multiple forums and websites devoted to fans of these teams to discuss and share opinions. This forum is the only place that I know of where fans of Broke Straight Boys can discuss models and scenes of this site.

And as much as I love being able to communicate with the models, it definitely does make it necessary to temper my remarks regarding a model who either does not turn me on, or whose work I dislike, for it is rude to tell a person "to his face" that he is out of shape, or not handsome or even not a good sexual performer.

I have no equitable solution as I enjoy having a place to "talk" to the models, but it is far more important for me to have a place to share my open, unfiltered thoughts with the other members here who like me pay our monthly dues, and share a passion for watching young, good looking, assumedly straight guys experiencing gay sex for the first time.

I am drawing no conclusions to the dilemma outlined here, but I am here to acknowledge that it is a perplexing situation to me. I guess I want to have my cake and eat it too.

Good post Mike and of course there is a place to chat to the models - each model has their own thread in the new section.

Thanks Jon, but I'm not sure that your plan is a viable solution either. First to my way of thinking, it "looks bad" to segregate models into their own area. I say either they should be here or not be here, but not half way.

And even if they could only post in the "chat with the models" section, they can still comment there regarding potential criticism, unless you want to ban them from reading our posts too. I don't know the solution, but I disagree with your suggestion.

Welcome Back Mike

I was out of town when the latest forum controversy broke out, and I've spent many hours reading the posts that appear to have lead up to this latest Broke Straight Boys turmoil....

Welcome back Mike from the land of enchantment.

I share your dilemma too. It is part of the human condition that we want our cake and to eat it too. Sometimes it takes a while to figure out what works given the circumstances.

I am hoping we will get there eventually.

Hey young Mikey,

First, let me welcome you home. I hope you are rested and ready to continue your "been here forever" duties as the forum diplomat. lol You have been missed, my friend.

Although I mostly agree with your words above, I have something to share with you that my mother used to pound in my head. "Don't say anything about anyone behind their back that you wouldn't say to their face." If you need to filter your words of disapproval because the model participates on this forum, then you should filter your words of disapproval for all models. You never know who is reading your words.

I understand what you are saying Robb but I don't thing you're getting the point that Mike, TG and I are saying. We need to be free to express our view about a scene without the fear of repercussions from models who take umbrage at the comments. The comments made about the Damien Kyle film weren't really insulting until but he still chose to mildly insult Graham then come out with crap stating that the members didn't know what we were looking at or similar.

If we're getting that kind of reaction to some mild remarks then god knows what will happen when people really slate of a film. OR, and this is the predicament that the honest posters are in, do we hold back on comments we would normally have posted just because the models are posting here too. I think that his wrong - hence the thread.

Gottcha, Jon. I understand the purpose for the thread, but I guess I went off topic a little to comment on a part of Mike's post that I have heard him seemingly struggling with in several of his previous posts. I was merely giving him some of my mother's wisdom.

I'll comment on the thread a little later after the drugs wear off a little. lol

Graham, just to lighten the mood, here's something from way, way out of the blue.

I have watched a number of Japanese films and I've noticed that in many of them the actors end their statements with a sound that sounds a lot like the way you end some of your statements in your posts. I've highlighted your word below.




My question Graham is: Where did you learn to write in Japanese? LOL

Is this silly or what?

Now, let's enjoy each other and have a good time getting off if possible.

HAHAHA. Dude "ha" has just stuck with me for some reason. I even do it for txt messages its weird. I do it all the time. I actually took some Japanese in high school, it was a great language to learn and it was very easy.

 

[BSBGraham]

You really have to take a reading comprehension course. But I doubt it would help, because you want your conclusions to be right. You know nothing about me and nothing I wrote can suggest to an objective mind that I am social darwinist, an elitist or any other type category in which you wish to place me. People might not like to think of Broke Straight Boys as a hustler website because they don't want to think of themselves as johns of a sort, But the facts are as they are. And there is nothing wrong with that.

I could try to infer from what you write that you are an elitist, but I would not because I don't know you.

Sancte pater, sic transit gloria mundi!!

I mean, I wouldn't call this site a hustler site. Straight guys just have sex for pay to help them out, but if that was the case a lot of porn sites would be called that.

Wow this thread is still going on lol

Some people think it's an important issue Jay. The management obviously do not..

Hey, guys,

Here is my take on all of this - and I am a dinosaur from the Victorian era, and you have heard it all before, but - here it is again.

To my mind, the ONLY reason ever to have been (or to BE) on the Broke Straight Boys chatboard is that is a nicer, kindlier chatboard, than most American ones, out there. Maybe this is discriminatory, and maybe it is unfair, but, in my experience, most European gay chatrooms are like "fan-rooms", whereas a lot of North American ones are a whole lot tougher. I prefer, obviously, the pleasant, European style ;-)))

I don't know about YOU, but, I really LIKE the opportunity to chat occasionally, with models whom I like - and love, and adore - like JASON, and Paul, and Blake, and Adam. On what other site is this opportunity available??? Name me one, and I will listen, with great interest!

Of COURSE, the fact that models are joining in the chat means, that a little more kindness and courtesy, are necessary. But, my gosh, is that REALLY A PROBLEM, for ANYONE??? I mean, IS IT???

For sure, if you want to demonstrate that you are the meanest, baddest, funniest, and smartest DARTH VADER reviewer of erotic videos EVER ~ there is a site for you to prove your mettle, and it is called www.waybig.com. And that site is priceless. There you can freely say, "This model's butt-cheeks are out-of-alignment; THAT model didn't stand on his HEAD to take the other guy's penis, when he SHOULD have; "I HATE his pimples"; "I hate his HAIR". . . and ALL of that stuff. That site is almost UNIVERSALLY dedicated to SCATHING reviews, of models' deficiencies.

But look, why are YOU here, and why am I here? Apart, maybe, from Jon in Liverton, who seems to be pretty gorgeous (even though he always disagrees with me ;-) we are ALL here - except for the cute GIRLS who are here just out of curiosity - for one reason, and one reason, particularly ~ to get a little inspiration that keeps us, through the NIGHT. This is neither good nor bad, it simply is what it IS: and we are LUCKY to have cute and charming models like PAUL, and JASON, and BLAKE. . . who not only make GREAT videos for us, to give us a little inspiration on winter nights - - - but who also think enough of us, to say "hi", sometimes.

YES, when models are able to POST HERE, and can also read OUR posts, does it mean that we have to be a little more polite, and mannerly??? Of course it does! Is that a PROBLEM, for any of YOU??? I certainly hope it isn't one, for ME! At least, I try!!! Because I would FAR RATHER be on a site where I could (once in awhile) say "Hey, hi!" to the great Paul Canon, or Jason Matthews, than one where I never could.

Guys, all "fandom" aside: I would like to brutally deconstruct, for you, the prevalent North American notion that gay erotic video is just a "commodity", that you buy in the store like a nice side of beef, or a particularly well-shaped HAM; or that you just go to the ATM and punch in a NUMBER, and if you have enough money in the bank, your ORGASM comes OUT THE SLOT. It ISN'T SO.

ALL OF THESE GUYS - our "Broke Straight Boys models" - are putting themselves out there, for you. They have MANY reasons for doing so. Some of them are in debt; some of them are GENUINELY working their way through college; and some of them are in trouble are really NEED the money. And some of them may be curious, and find this an opportunity to explore. And ALL of these reasons are fair, and shouldn't we just be THANKFUL, that they gave it a TRY???

One thing is for sure, though - all these guys are HUMAN BEINGS, just like you and me! Does anyone out there actually FEEL that, and KNOW that? Because, it's TRUE!

I wonder if other Broke Straight Boys fans like me, also understand that erotic video is NOT, NOT, NOT

 

[Ambivalent]

. . . the same as buying a slice of salami, in the Supermarket?

Our favourite models are NOT commodities - they are HUMAN BEINGS.

The solution to this problem is really simple. If you truly DETEST a model or a video, DO NOT rate or comment. If a model has truly offended you; write the management and SAY SO. Just don't be slagging real human beings, in public, if it isn't necessary.

It really makes me ill that GAY people, who have suffered so much persecution over the years, now feel free to persecute OTHER people, because it "isn't just what we PAID for." I think that's sick. And evil, too.
