It's absolutely time for him to bottom. I think it would be great for him to do it, and great for Broke Straight Boys in general to generate some interest. Just like if Johny Cox was to ever give up his ass. It's refreshing. And keeps things interesting. I jumped for joy when i first saw Jake, as i was finally attracted to a new Broke Straight Boys model, but now that i've only seen him top, i've gone a bit cold on him. Although i understand the argument that perhaps his tough guy, dominant top persona may be affected. But i think overall it would greatly improve him as a performer. Even if he only bottoms 1 out of every 5 scenes. He'd be a far bigger commodity to Broke Straight Boys if he was somewhat versatile. Even Ayden Troy who is genuinely straight, bottomed a couple times. Jake, who is pretty clearly gay in my eyes, should be doing it too.
However, from what i can see from him, i don't think his ego would allow him to be seen getting fucked by a guy on camera.
You and I think so much alike. Lots of the older Broke Straight Boys models that were on the more masculine straight side bottomed. Cage Kafig and Tyler White come to mind and back in the day like you said even most of the only tops like my favorite Diesal did it. Most of them managed to keep their butch top personas. Jake would do this as well. And I agree with you it would be great for business on Broke Straight Boys
