RONAN - BSB Star

[mikeyank]

But honestly I'm only doing this to show people that looks are completely subjective and what looks good to one person is not attractive to the other. I was actually shocked when you singled out Salem Pierce and attacked him repeatedly for his looks. I bear you no ill will!

You like waif-y strays, I like beefy rugby players. I don't go out of my way to make you feel bad about who you like.

Well, except in this case...

I enjoy your posts very much Pascal and I take no offence with your opinion of Ronan Kennedy as I thoroughly understand that looks are subjective and you are certainly entitled to love on Colby Jansen.

But when you say that I "singled out Salem Pierce and attacked him repeatedly for his looks", I didn't remember doing that and so I went back to my comments on him on that review and this is what I said.

I have long advocated Broke Straight Boys giving us a variety of types here, as there is no one type of "Broke Straight Boys" that is going to please the entire membership all of the time, so the only way to keep everyone happy is with the current three updates a week, to rotate many types of guys featured, as long as they are all reasonably attractive with basically fit bodies, and reasonably straight acting and of an age where they could still be considered "boys" to fit into the definition of the site, 'Broke Straight Boys'. Salem certainly fits into those parameters and while he is not specifically "my type", I can see where he is a type that will be enjoyed by many in this audience.

Unless I made disparaging remarks about him elsewhere, I think I was being fair and objective.

I now realize that I have "Ronan Kennedy Fever" worse than I realized, as this morning I was driving on the Grand Central Expressway in Queens, and saw a sign that said "Kennedy" and instead of the airport I thought of my beautiful Ronan Kennedy Perhaps I do need some time away in Ronan Kennedy rehab.

You made the second comment on the first ever thread for Salem (plus other comments when DC posted on the upcoming Newbies I seem to recall, I could be wrong):

I like everyone else appreciate new guys on this site, but seriously where did you find this man. He looks to be in his early thirties, and not even mildly attractive. When we said we wanted new guys not bottom of the barrel.

You've pretty much said what I was thinking when I glanced at his pic. I sure hope that this is a "leftover" from before Mark's hiring of his new recruiters that he's been telling us about.

"fair and objective", really?

I have commented negatively on models' performances or interviews before but never on their looks which is 1) not something they can control unlike what they say or do 2) like you say now, completely objective.

I understand being enthusiastic about a model, but taking time to disparage them before they even make an appearance like some do is beyond my understanding.

Dude. When we only have a pic to look at, then those that choose to start a thread in advance of the release are sometimes wrong. I must admit the pic that we had of Saleem did not do him any justice. However, most people who did comment prior to the release kinda withdrew and said that Saleem was in fact a good model. At least they admitted it, unlike some.

I see your point Pascal and if Salem read my comments, I apologize.

Can we now get back to talking about "Prince Ronan Kennedy"? Am I crazy for thinking he reminds me a bit of young Ashton Kutcher?

This is true Beth, but I join Elyot in hoping that Ronan Kennedy has a long career on Broke Straight Boys, as he is so right for this site, and I'd love to watch his career progress right here with me along for the ride.

You're correct, Beth. I misspoke. I should have said as long that.Ronan Kennedy is doing scenes on Broke Straight Boys There is just something about that guy. Beside the looks its his authenticity. He is totally present in every scene. Something very appealing about

I wonder if Ronan Kennedy is an offshoot of the famous Kennedy family ? lol

My guess is whoever makes up the names for the boys looked at him and said he looks like a Kennedy. Perhaps if JFK Jr. was a "broke" boy instead of a "rich" straight boy, he would have been a perfect looking Broke Straight Boys model when he was 20 years old.

Great advice with which I agree wholeheartedly; and which I hope Ronan Kennedy follows.

Absolutely agree with both of you. Ronan Kennedy is wise to focus on the scenes and not get involved on this side like some glory hunters.
