Concern about effects of common chemical leads consumers to seek options. The biggest controversy is about the materials from which many toys are made. [Full Article]

· Sex toys figure in ancient texts too
Vatsyayana’s 4th century AD compilation Kama Sutra, the world’s oldest tome on sex and its pleasures, is peppered with so many details of sex toys that one begins to wonder if it was a small-scale industry in ancient India.

The section titled Aupanishadika (occult practices) talks about various kinds of apadravya (apparatus) used for sexual intercourse. These dildos or sex aids were made of wooden, rubber, gold, silver, copper, ivory, even horn. At one place, the Kama sutra also says that when men have no sex partner, they satisfy themselves “with dolls.” [Full Article]

Hey guys, Today I’m happy to introduce Corey Taylor (CoreyTaylor.net) the latest contributor of this blog, Queer Me Now.

A few months ago, I wrote an article and was discussing how some people think badly of porn and porn stars because they’re afraid straight people won’t like us if they know we watch porn – and God forbid like it, or even worse, admit to it! Of course, those same people are the ones who don’t like “drag queens, fats, or fems” – the ones who alienate elements of our culture. In the article, I wrote, thank God for drag queens; thank God for porn stars. A friend of mine got to that part and laughed. Thank God for porn stars? So I said, yeah! I thank God for porn stars two or three times a day.

And doing that with a little variety is easier now that I’ve discovered XTube. I wouldn’t normally make that kind of endorsement, but damn if there’s not some really hot stuff on there. It’s like YouTube only with sex, and people are making their own videos and uploading them, so it’s largely unregulated content. What an incredible trend! I love it. Of course, you can sign up for all of it and create an account, but I haven’t done that and still get to see quite a bit. And something somewhat controversial about it, is that there’s a lot of barebacking going on.

And I must confess, I’m conflicted.

I’m such a stickler for safe sex, and I think professional porn has a responsibility to use and show condoms. But where amateur stuff is concerned, this gets a little tricky. What if both of (or all of) the men are known positive? Or all negative for that matter? Would those situations create a perceived level of safety where barebacking might actually be okay? Men in monogamous relationships do it all the time. What’s the difference if they’re doing it with a camcorder going? And again I should confess, when I saw a guy get off with his dick in his partner’s ass, then pulled out, and his cum came pouring out, that was fucking hot. I’ve seen some pretty hot felching on there, too.

Don’t get me wrong. I think safe sex is vital; I practice it myself. But forgetting the taboo for a moment, is it possible that there may also be a place for sex without a condom that may also be considered safe? Maybe the reason barebacking is so appealing is that it reminds us of the short time after Stonewall and before AIDS when sex didn’t have to be responsible; it was just pure freedom. Of course, personally, I will go on insisting that the men in my life wrap it up, and relegate the other to the fantasy realm. But I was definitely reminded by this that there are no absolutes – particularly within the malleability of Queerness – and that growth depends upon those who question the status quo.

First, I need to thank Jack Shamama of Gay Porn Blog (gaypornblog.com) for his concern about my blog post “Inside gay porn business” that pointed out to the article on Naked Came I Blog that insulting almost everyone involved in gay porn industry which may hurt my blog and me as gay porn blogger.

But finally, I think he understand what I’m trying to do. Just ignore the lie didn’t make it fades away. Especially for internet. Someone (who’s outsider just like me) may find this article, believe it, forward it to his friend and so one. I think that will hurt gay porn industry in the long run.

I believe that we need to fight lie with truth, So I put this article on my blog and invite people who’s gay porn insiders to comment on it. I also forwarded this blog post to directors, porn studios and bloggers in gay porn field I can think of and ask for their opinion.

Jack Shamama is the first one who response and here’s what he has to say…

Someone forwarded me this entry a few days ago and asked me to comment on it. As someone who works in and knows quite a lot about the gay porn industry, I initially felt the need to point out the many, many factual errors.

But as I re-read it and realized how spiteful the overall tone was I figured, “What’s the point?” Obviously, Tim, you have an ax to grind with the gay porn industry and you are just looking to spew some bile — (certainly not “carry on a dialogue” as you later claim).

It’s not worth my time, but the thought of people reading this and thinking some of your preposterous claims are actually true is the kind of thing that drives me crazy, so here I am, taking time out of my busy fucking day to point out as much of the bullshit I can, and hopefully shut you up about this topic.

1. YOUR LIE: “Falcon, for example, can barely put streaming video online. It has a minimalist members-only section with little more than the odd photo and access to streaming video at a lower rate than the pay-per-view approach offered by its public pages.”

THE TRUTH: Falcon allows members to stream their last six months’ of new releases at 512k. They post anywhere between 50-100 images per movie.

2. YOUR LIE: “Content unique to the Internet is almost unheard of. ”

THE TRUTH: SeanCody.com, RandyBlue.com, Fratmen.com, ChaosMen.com, CorbinFisher.com are all examples of unique web-only content. Falcon posts one full-length sex scene a week that they produce exclusively for the web. They stream weekly live sex shows and each of their exclusives do live webcam shows for members only. ColtStudios also does frequent webcam shows with their exclusives, too.

3. YOUR LIE: “Among gay porn studios, you’ll be hard pressed to find anyone with a college degree, much less a business degree. The degrees you will find are usually film-oriented.”

THE TRUTH: Have you really asked EVERYONE in the gay porn industry if they went to college? I work for a porn studio and I’d be willing to bet money that I went to a better college then you did, Tim. I can’t talk for everyone in the entire industry but lmost everyone in my office has a college degree. Chris Ward has a PhD in History.

4. YOUR LIE: “For example, John Rutherford over at Colt Studios has a film directing degree from UCLA. But that’s all.”

THE TRUTH: Rutherford graduated from San Francisco State University with a degree in Broadcast Communication Arts. (Source)

5. YOUR LIE: “Chi LaRue has talked at length in his autobiography about the amount of cocaine he snorted. Do you think the funds for those drugs came from a trust fund? … No: They came because LaRue paid himself a hefty salary for each film he did, and that salary was used to pay for drugs (not good porn).”

THE TRUTH: Chi Chi’s autobiography was published in 1997. He didn’t start Channel 1 until 1999; he was working freelance for a variety of studios. Freelance directors can’t pay themselves hefty salaries.

6. YOUR LIE: “What usually occurs is that directors skimp on performer pay, sets, cinematography, editing, and more in order to pay themselves a fatter salary.”

THE TRUTH: You appear to be conflating the role of a producer and a director. A director is hired by a studio and paid a flat rate. They are not in charge of paying for everything — that is the role of the studio or the producer.

7. YOUR LIE: “In fact, gay porn is so full of high school dropouts, drug users, incompetents and the beneficiaries of nepotism that studios really pay for reliability, not great porn.”

THE TRUTH: I encountered far more drug use when I worked in publishing. Also, could you clarify how nepotism could play in a role in an industry where few people have children?

8. YOUR LIE: “Studio 2000 is so far behind the game in this regard that it had to offer 50 percent commission on all sales generated by a Web affiliate.

THE TRUTH: 50% is the industry standard pay-out for affiliates. Falcon pays 40-50% based on volume. SeanCody, RandyBlue, Corbin Fisher, etc, all pay 50%.

9. YOUR LIE: “But gay porn studios haven’t even begun to place ads on popular gay sites like Gay.com, PlanetOut, TLA Video, or A Different Light Booksellers.”

THE TRUTH: PlanetOut doesn’t allow adult advertisers. Gay.com has many adult advertisers, but they are kept behind a firewall in their “Men After Dark” adult section. TLA doesn’t accept advertising. A Different Light’s site ranks 246,000 on Alexa – which hardly makes them a “popular gay site”.

10. YOUR LIE: “The guy’s porn name was “Cliff Rhodes” and when he started working at Titan, they made him give up the blog (“Wet Dreaming”).:

THE TRUTH: Cliff is a good friend of mine, and he confirms with me that this is blatantly untrue.

Some gay pornstars are married, some have children. That made them DILF (Dad I Like To Fuck)

Robert Van Damme is a father to 18 years old twin daughters. Yes, 18 y.o. he must had them when he’s really young. And he must be a really hot dad. (source)

Cute tidbit: He told Jason Sechrest on KSEX radio show about an embarrassing moment of him when his daughter called him and ask for advice about “anal sex” (She know he works in adult industry)

Another DILF is Shane Rollins. According to David Forest, Shane has NOT retired … he’s just playing “Daddy” right now. His wife gave birth to a BOY in early February. Since she is a very “specialized” pediatric nurse (emergency cases, trauma, etc.) … and commands an excellent salary … after a 3-month leave of absense (Jan 15 thru Apr 15), she’s back at work. Shane, then, gets to take care of his new kid for a while. (…Isn’t that cute)

If SHANE and/or “Justice” win big at the upcoming GRABBY AWARDS (May 26 in Chicago) … which we all think is going to happen … I’m hoping to have an offer for SHANE to star in a new project this summer. The baby will be nearly 6 months old … and the mother will probably be able to take a few weeks off to “cover” for SHANE while he goes back to work, so to speak.

As you guys know, I started this blog just for the love of gay porn. But I’m just an outsider, so I called Queer Me Now! “Gay Porn Blog from Consumer’s Point of View”

That’s why I’m so excite to read articles from someone “gay porn insider” from time to time that give me a whole new perspective about this industry.

I just found this article on a blog called Naked Came I (Nakedcamei.blogspot.com) by Tim. It’s quite a long essay and I don’t know how accurate it is but it’s very informative and give a whole new perspective about gay porn industry.

This series of article from Nyugat.hu are quite old (long before I even started blogging) but I think They’re must-read for any one who want to know about how Hungary has become the stronghold of gay-porn industry. It’s quite rare to get this kind of in-dept stories about porn in eastern Europe from mainstream media. And the fact that these articles came from Hungarian themselves made them more believable. And very informative for outsiders like us curious about our fantasy pornstars and their real life. So, in case you never heard about them you should read these 3 articles…

· How strong boys become girls?

· Michael Jackson’s producer and the Hungarian gay porn stars

· Bodybuilders against the spread of gay-porn industry?
