Since you (jokingly) mention that JON, how would certain members feel about that? I get that there are some members who for the sake of a better word, are "Purist" "believably/straight" while others (to include myself) are more into the performance aspect regardless of the "actual orientation". I"ll take "what a model is comfortable saying they are" at face value. Even though I may have a different opinion (in my mind)after seeing their performances, I will continue to respect how they've identified themselves until "they tell me" otherwise. I will make every effort to reflect that in my comments too! Models in the past (particularly popular ones) ie: Tyler Evans and Logan, Diesal : have all done so, though it was toward, if not at the end of doing BSB scenes. Would it be better they did this while still filming or at the end?
First of all I am proudly 100% a "purist" who joined the site for and continue to seek guys who represent the "straight ideal" throughout my formative years and later, always being fascinated by, turned on by, and lusted after good looking straight guys. It was former forumite Abe, Abush11 who first used the term "believably straight", which I have held onto, for as long as I can believe that the models came here as straight boys, I can indulge in my fantasy, for what does it matter who they are in reality. it only matters to me what my brain perceives as reality.
As far as the models "coming out of the closet", there are two types of models that come into play. One are the guys who come on in their introductory videos and tell Clay or David that they are straight, never fucked around with a guy, etc. etc., while their mannerisms and eventually their sexual behavior on the site says otherwise to me. The other type relates to your point, Betu, as you talk about
Tyler Evans Logan and
Diesal In my mind, (which again is all that matters to me for my fantasies and my turn-ons), is that all three came to the
Broke Straight Boys futon at the time, believing that they were straight, and that they were not hiding a secret gay life from us, as the term "in the closet" implies. My thought is that they probably decided to perform on this site to satisfy some repressed feelings that they had no way of expressing within their own straight lifestyles in their home towns within their own social groups.
Therefore I reject the premise that these three among many others including
Mike Robbins, Tank Shane, Alden and even current model Ayden were secretly gay and only "playing" straight, but rather were giving us a fairly honest appraisal of where their own heads were at when they first came to work here. However as the months and years passed many of the totally straight guys came to realize that they did have desires and feelings that they were first able to discover through their work here.
I continue to enjoy your commentaries Betu very much, as you always seem to delve into the core issues that matter to me on
Broke Straight Boys. Thank you very much for being an active member of this forum.
