I'm so glad you're back Stripe. You always have substantive things to contribute. Most of the time I agree with your insights. Such is the case here. Tyler did come across as a little over the top in self confidence, cockiness, whatever. lol It was getting tedious when the response to so many questions was, "Of course!" I know that Tyler was nervous. So that became an easy mantra to reflexively shout out. At that point though it becomes time to switch gears and ask more open-ended questions that can't be answered with a simple yes or no. One of the most valuable parts of the solo scenes is getting to know the models as to how they are as people, offscreen in real life. Johnny and Tyler gave us a fair glimpse of that. But I like your suggestion here: "Johnny should have asked how he felt about the prospect of having sex with guys and let the kid come up with his own answer."
I agree with you Stripe that I am not eager to see Tyler all "sleeved up". I'm not a fan of tats but I think the ones he already has are well done. I'm also impressed that Tyler has the skill to draw them himself and then has another artist fill them in. Much more tats than what he already has though would be overdone in my opinion. I hated it when hot model Liam sleeved out so much. The eyes become so distracted by the tats that they can't focus on the beauty of the model and the sex that's taking place. (At least for me.)
If you're reading this Tyler I hope that you won't get bunch more tats really quickly. Some models fall into that temptation when they suddenly get a windfall of cash from doing the video work. There's also the risk though that you'll challenge the very audience that you're trying to impress, and counting on to make more money from...with too many new tattoos. On a site like
Broke Straight Boys I dare say that some models have actually lost popularity, rather than gaining it, by continually adding more tats. Looks count for a whole lot when doing video work. If a body full of tats is something you want for your own enjoyment, or that of a spouse, then you should wait until your porn career has ended before going all out with the ink.
You're a beautiful guy who was blessed with a beautiful birthday suit.
There's no hurry to try to "improve" upon it with body art.
