Of course that is the point O.F., but on the other hand I do understand that to an 18 year old kid who is getting paid to perform here, this is the only time that matters to him. He was born in 1998 which seems like yesterday or maybe last week to me. Hell it occurred to me that I've been on this forum for practically half of his life. lol
And again, I have so much respect for Ronan Kennedy for saying that he understands that the forum is for the members and not the models, but I'm willing to cut Oliver some slack and understand that the way an 18 year kid sees the world is not the same way that more "mature" people do. But if you're still reading this Oliver, try to realize that biting the hand that feeds you can back fire on you in the end.
We've been down this road many, many times with other models. I'm going to neither justify nor vilify Oliver's reactions, as it's all a moot point. I've said before and I stand by my opinion that models should be restricted to the "Meet Our Models" section of the forums so that the members have space where they can speak freely without fear of hurt feelings or worse. And I'm sure that the models have their own opinions of us as well, and some members might be offended if they were to share them. It's human nature to feel hurt by hearing or reading something bad about yourself. Some people can process that and let it go and some people cannot. Younger people have not had as much experience processing such things, plus these guys are here raw and exposed, so any insecurities and vulnerabilities have to be heightened (and I KNOW that that is their job, but that doesn't mean that they still don't have feelings or can be hurt). Unfortunately, as I've also said numerous times, criticism is a part of "celebrity," be it tv personalities, movie stars, singers, or porn actors. If you are putting yourself out onto the public stage you have to expect criticism, including hurtful or even hateful criticism. It goes with the territory. You need to learn to let it roll off you and not impact your life to the point of it all becoming toxic.
While I agree with the old adage of not biting the hand that feeds you, these guys have many, many options available to them anymore, and we've seen an awful lot of Broke Straight Boys boys move on to other studios. So unless someone gets a reputation for being difficult or trouble, I don't think biting this hand is going to really impact Oliver's career, should he choose to leave Broke Straight Boys and go to another studio. He posted yesterday that he was shooting porn today, but I don't know if he meant here or elsewhere.
