Well, I give the dwarf credit–standing up for color-blindness in porn is a good thing. HOW-EV-ER, His Royal Shortness gives models who go back and forth between bareback & mainstream porn a free pass (Mike Dozer). So much for the “How I Roll” PSA he did…..
I’m mucho into latins, asians and several black guys. I thought eddie diaz was awesome, ditto for tyler johnson and colin black Always turns me on when i see him on screen, i love interracial porn.
As someone who works on adult sites, I can’t tell you how much the audience of some websites hates having black guys show up on the front page. I’ve had clients who’ve lost memberships over it, and we immediately see a drop in new memberships.
And don’t get me started on the amount of members who are black, and who would write in and bitch about having black models on because that’s not what they’re paying for.
Also, porn models are humans. Shocking I know, they aren’t cattle. And yes they get to pick who they work with. In the straight porn world women get to choose who they will and will not work with and what can and cannot be done to them sexually. It’s no different in the gay side of things, and it shouldn’t be
I’m happy that Steve Cruz responded to this issue. Unfortunately he’s already used Marc Dylan in several scenes. Hopefully that will come to an end, Marc Dylan will no longer get work unless he wants to go back to doing bareback scenes. Men of color are all different. Bodies, faces, asses, cocks, skin tone. To say you’re not sexually attracted to any of them is blatant racism period. I hope the stain on gay porn that is Marc Dylan goes away forever. And for you other redneck uneducated pornstars… You’ve been warned
Steve Cruz and Bruno Bond, formerly performed, currently direct porn for Raging Stallion which merged with Falcon about two years ago. Falcon, which has been since its inception, is a company that has featured predominantly white performers. Raging Stallion, however, had a history of being more ethnically diverse. As performers both Steve and Bruno, which are hot individually and smoking as a couple, did scenes with men of color including Huessein, Roman Wright, Marc LaSalle and Damien Crosse. (Yes boys in spite of his fair skin Damien Crosse is indeed latino)
Also I would like to convey a story overheard at dinner last week:
“My mother in law was furious about race talk and conversations about the confederate flag. She was like…what’s the big deal? It’s just a flag! So I asked her if she took all of her kids to school on the first day every year? She said yes. Then I asked her if they flew the american flag at the schools? She said yes. Then I asked if you drove up to the school one day and the American flag was gone replaced by a Nazi Swastika flag would you drop your kids off, drive away and not think twice about it? Hell no she said! I asked her why? Because…then she stopped and said because it represents hate!”
The point is this in this day and age if you do not think there is a problem with race in porn, in the gay community, in America at large you may be part of the problem
As stated by a few other people, this represents a larger problem of discrimination in the gay community. I am a black male in my mid to late 20’s, (not to sound cocky) I’m good looking, am muscular, a nice guy and I live in Los Angeles. The amount of negativity and rejection I have received from other gays throughout my adult life has been astounding and surprising! From online hookups straight up saying that they don’t like black guys to actually being called a nigger to going out to bars in West Hollywood and not really being talked to amongst a sea of white guys baffles me. I have had guys say to my face that they don’t like black guys!! I’m all for having sexual preferences but to constantly hear the reason someone isn’t ever going to be attracted to you is because your black is just damaging!!
I worked in a big West Hollywood bar for a few years and for a time, there were only 2 other black people working in any of the other bars in West Hollywood!! Same goes for the gogo dancers, it is rare to see a black gogo dancer at any bars out here. There are a few but the number is miniscule compared to the white and latin dancers.
For the gay community, porn stars are our celebrities because they are of the gay world, enjoyed by the gay world. All we see in the real mainstream popular porn are white guys and light skinned latin guys. Yeah, every once in awhile a black guy will pop up but that is in 1 of every 50 scenes maybe! If you want to see guys of color, you have to go to a specific site where it is all black guys or all Asian guys, etc. I know it’s just porn but it really sends the message that men of color aren’t as attractive or desirable in the mainstream gay media, therefore in the gay community. It is 2013 in America and I think studios should make a conscious effort to diversify their products to reflect real life and show that non-white people are attractive! Porn isn’t going to change the world but it’s a star and something I’d like to see…
Why can’t you just accept the fact that you’re black and get over it. Some people don’t like you and that’s OK. You don’t have to like them back either. I’m sure there are plenty of black guys you can date.
He has every right to be offended that people aren’t attracted to him because of his race.
This is like when I would get called a snob because I would never EVER even sleep with someone who isn’t college educated (my snobbiness has since subsided). At least the black guy didn’t CHOOSE to be black; the uneducated guy DID choose to remain an idiot. Liking someone based on skin tone is a socially constructed idea in one’s head, NOT nature, and therefore it IS prejudice.
I see the opposite of your story. So many guys are ONLY into black men. I remember trying to score some of the hottest guys in the clubs during the 90’s in south beach. But they ONLY did black guys. If you are a hot black guy, you can land any gay guy you want. Society as a whole does discriminate against black people. But I see the gay community fall in love with the black guy. Look at the success of Blackballed porn videos of being gang banged by black guys. Seriously, isnt that every white guy’s fantasy? I know it has always been mine :)
I’m much into escorts and porn and i can tell you that at least in europe a good-looking black or asian guy is big game, everyone wants them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and interracial porn is the most visited (brand’ on free porntunes, so GO FIGURE
Personally, i also have my own preference and it would be really hard to make my dick harder if i see a screen partner who cannot make me stimulated. For me its not racism, its preference. Forcing me to have sex with guys that i am not physically attracted to is like forcing me to have sex with woman when I am totally GAY!
Oh, because being attracted to white people is hardwired in the brain like sexual orientation is? No one is born racist, your desires are formed psychologically.
You’re gonna have to provide a reliable peer-reviewed scientific source for that instead of talking out of your ass.
There is no consensus currently as to how sexual orientation arises in one’s character, and if it was formed psychologically (as it may very well be the case) , that wouldn’t change much of anything for me, unless you think gay conversion therapy is a thing. ANd there is even less of a consesus as to how sexual preferences arise. Two people raised in the exact same environment may have a completely different set of attractions/fetishes even if they share the same sexual orientation.
Sexual preference is not racism if the person does not make you hard.
If you refuse to sleep with her while you find her sexually arousing, for dodgy moral reasons (as in this race is inferior/disgusting), THAT is racism.
I have spent several months in the Philippines, not once have I been aroused by the men around me. 0, nothing. I didn’t think anything bad about them and they are lovely people, they just don’t get me going sexually. I DO NOT HATE THEM, do you get that??? A lot of attractive women there, though.
If a person doesn’t make you hard, what are you going to do? Tell your dick he is immoral and racist? Is that really what you would do ? And then what, Caverject? This is bullshit, sorry.
You need to look back at what racism really means, some people want to see it everywhere and really discredit the concept.
It’s more complicated than that. There are peer reviewed studies on sociological factors that demonstrate sociological factors in determining who is considered attractive, smart, worthy etc based on skin color.
The earliest is “the baby doll” test, and that’s just a Google search. Anderson Cooper reproduced it for a segment a while back, and actually little has changed.
Preferences can be formed by what society defaults to as normal, or as “better.”
But you’re not being paid to have sex with Filipinos. If you’re a porn actor and therefore being paid to have sex with whoever, if you can’t bring yourself to have sex with whoever, then you are out of a job and get replaced with someone who can do it.
I think that you are right. I feel that way about Asian Men. I have nothing against Asian men. I think they are beautiful and sometimes some of the nicest people that I’ve ever met, but I am not sexually attracted to them. Just doesnt do it for me. That does not mean that I am racist or have a hatred for Asians. That is the most ridiculous argument that has no ground to stand on. And to turn even that on its sided, I could sleep with an Asian man and still not prefer to. Just because you’re not sexually attracted to someone or a group of people doesn’t mean that the only other argument must be that you hate them. It would be different if I was looking at their physical features and saying it doesn’t work for me for this reason and that reason. No. Someone we have devolved into a culture that wants to latch onto the worst possible scenario when things don’t go our way. Which is sad and shameful.
I think we’re just attracted to our own personal ideal of beauty. Sure society plays a part in that concept. The problem is, you cant just say I’m only into white guys or I’m not into Asian guys. Damn some white guys are uglyyyy and man although society doesn’t sexualize Asian men, I’ve crossed paths with some incredibly attractive individuals. Individuals guys. People should be regarded as individuals. Is it racist to never be with a black guy? Is it racist to ONLY be with a black guy? As long as you don’t have hate in your heart, just keep living. We’re criticising the marketing decisions of a lucrative porn industry. You think they care to be PC? Porn has honesty opened up my eyes to knew attractions. Body types I didn’t think I’d like, facial features that I might have thought too feminine or some that I would normally think too gnarly/rugged. Different ages, ethnicities, personalities even. Societies ideals of beauty are changing anyway. Just keep the Convo going and eventually change will be upon us.
Tom
okay tell us what real racism really is dude. Im guessing you’re the type of person who think “its not racism unless violence is involved.
“Two people raised in the exact same environment may have a completely different set of attractions/fetishes even if they share the same sexual orientation.”
OH MAYBE BECAUSE DIFFERENT PPL CAN REACT TO A SAME SET OF STIMULI DIFFERENTLY. ER DERP.
you dont even need to do a study to know that speaking in terms of probability theory (specifically law of large numbers) if preferences/racial requirements arose in vacuums, we wouldnt see this skew towards “Oh only white ppl are beautiful. I have tons of black friends tho”
and there is DEFINITELY a skew. a simple google search (or if you prefer, you may use any other search engine used in academia…webofscience, jstor, google scholar, etc) will lead to TONS of peer reviewed articles and journals that show this skew in the heterosexual community. Whether or not studies have been done to show that this skew exists in the gay community, I would have to spend time to find out but lets be real, we’re all kidding ourselves if we think there isnt. I dont think the people that who have racial requirements are necessarily racists (although they can be) but lets all stop the bs and stop trying to act like it has nothing to do with racism.
i dont understand how a porn ‘performer’ even has a CHOICE?? ur being paid to show ur asshole on film and all of a sudden u have standards? if i were running the studio and someone said they refused to do a scene with a black performer i would fire the person simply because that is the business u are in. ur being paid to have sex….if u wanna be “Selective” about the races u fuck in ur private life then (u suck) but keep it PRIVATE! why are people so stupid?
They look pretty fucking awesome I think (see NUbius, XL, Sarge for instance) and should be invited to work at other studios.
ANd I’ve been a member of Taggaz/Dawgpound, their content is really good, I recommend it AND I THINK MAINSTREAM GAY BLOGS SHOULD TALK ABOUT THOSE SITES TOO(none of them does, and that includes thesword despite the recent fake drama this issue prompted here)
Kiern Duecan is another hot black dude that deserves more attention from mainstream studios.
I know part of the reason that they don’t get blogged about as much is because they don’t have affiliate programs, so you can’t make money from them. And depending on how many affiliate programs you’re a part of, you can get HUNDREDS of emails a week. So you don’t have a lack of content to choose from, from studios who make it easier on you. Why go hunt and find their content when you have so much to choose from?
Not to mention some of their websites are hard to use.
I’m white. I’m not SEXUALLY attracted to a lot of Black, Asian, or Ginger men. All I can say is I know there isn’t a racist molecule in my body. I don’t think they’re less than me in any way, or should be treated any differently than me. Personally I find it really offensive that people are calling Marc Dylan and others “racist” because of who they’re sexually attracted to. My lack of sexual interest in someone doesn’t have anything to do with how I feel about them as a person.
There have been occasions when I’ve been interested in a Black, Asian, or Ginger guy. Even if I had zero interest though, I don’t think it should matter to anyone. I don’t put “Whites Only, No Gingers” on my profiles or anything. I’m not going to pre-judge someone’s attractiveness based on whether someone tells me they’re black or white.
There are a WHOLE lot of white guys I’m not attracted to either. A lot of times people rave about porn stars on here (who are white) and I just don’t get it. Does that make me racist towards white people too?
What you’re saying is different from what Marc Dylan said. He said no blacks ever. You’ve admitted you’re sometimes attracted to people of different ethnicities, which is a step beyond Marc.
As mentioned above, who you are attracted to in your own personal life should have no bearing on who you can work with if you are a porn actor. As a porn actor, you are not being paid to go on your own dates and have sex with your own preferred partners. You are being paid to act in a scene constructed by a director at the behest of a studio. You’re free to be attracted to and fuck whoever you want or don’t want in your own life. But in porn – a *job* – who you are attracted to or not is not and should not ever be the issue. If you don’t want to fuck the other porn actor(s) in the scene, you are not the right actor to complete the scene’s cast.
I actually had a great conversation with a gorgeous white model who was the pass around bottom in a “men of color” porn. He told me it was the most challenging movie he’s ever done bc none of the black guys would even touch each other. They all just wanted his pink hole. He had to fluff all of them between takes bc none of them
Could “get into black guys”. Their words… Not his. He did it willingly bc he was a professional and loved black guys. So before we all go playing the white devil race card let’s just sit back and realize that’s its not always white guys saying they won’t work with black guys. Goes the other way too. I also have a couple gay male black friends and ive worked with 2 who will not date or sleep with black guys. Why? I don’t know but what should we call this? So let’s all ease up on the white male pornstars are all racists card. Oh and while we’re on the “race card” lets talk about Race. Race Cooper is hot, beautiful face, gorgeous body and a real PORNSTAR with class and professionalism. Diesel on the other hand is washed up, crazy and spends his days on porn blogs arguing and defending himself to his “haters”. Dude if you even have haters you should be grateful. YOU’RE TIME IS DONE. Does Race Cooper sit here talking with people who criticize him? Not that I know of… Wanna know why? Bc IMO he’s classy and can’t be bothered. You on the other hand DW are not. Studios don’t hire you not bc youre black, they dont hire you bc yr personality is too strong (ie crazy) and you’re washed up. Bow out gracefully and leave before the party is over dude (and btw your party ended years ago). That’s all I have. Night y’all!
Here I am getting dissed by someone calling themselves Ladyboybunny SMH. Anyway you were suppose to comment on the topic when did you start comparing me to other porn stars? For someone who says they don’t care, you seem to study my habits and think you know Me. You Sir are one of my Haters that I come on blogs to defend myself against. While your studying Me, you seem to forget that Im directing for Dawgpoundusa and it seems that Dawgpoundusa was mentioned a few times in this post. My time is done and I have to Bow out?? I’m not leaving porn anytime soon, so your stuck with Me.
And keep comparing Me to Race Cooper, that is fine. I don’t see Race Cooper stating his opinions about Racism in gay porn. In fact I haven’t heard a single word from Race Cooper in regards to Marc Dylan, racism in gay porn, or Black stereotypes in gay porn, I haven’t heard his opinion or his Voice at all…
So when you compare Race Cooper and Diesel Washington, remember one states his opinions/stances and if something bothers him, he speaks on it. The Latter plays nice with everyone on the beach, even if they kick sand in his face.
I guess I’m just Crazy for Standing up for myself and what I believe in….
It’s always amusing when someone talks about “the race card” as if it could be put away. Black people can’t stop being black, but they can stop being silent.
Of course the people who want them to be silent, usually want them to suck up whatever privileged b.s. they want to send down the slide.
…so what you’re saying is whites hating on blacks is okay bc sometimes black people hate on other black people? ever heard of internalized racism. In some Asian countries, people will look down on you and treat you like shit just bc your skin isnt light enough. But I mean, according to you that would be okay bc they’re all the same race and it has nothing to do with how the media is dominated by white people and filled with eurocentric ideas about beauty.
“I also have a couple gay male black friends and ive worked with 2 who will not date or sleep with black guys. Why? I don’t know but what should we call this?” It’s not that hard to call it what it is–internalized racism. That having been said, does that make it ok for you to be racist? Even brown people are racist toward one another, so leave me alone? Seriously, who are you? Paula Deen?
I saw a behind-the-scenes for a video that Steve Cruz was directing between Paddy O’Brian and some other dude… anyway, Steve was really queeny and bitchy to Paddy (I guess Steve doesn’t like working with “straight” actors). Paddy surprised him and did an excellent job at the shoot though and Steve seemed impressed. After watching that, I’m sure Paddy would never work for Steve again. I’m gay and if I would have had to listen to that bitch fest, I would have walked.
Exactly Chuck Holmes is spinning in his grave what has happend to Falcon. Friends hire friends ,it has nothing to do with talent or race for that matter. Pretty sad and desperate you claim racism is destroying your company when Falcon really never hired many black performers before.
Why does everything have to be “BLACK BLACK BLACK BLACK” when talking about guys of other races in gay porn? I feel like black guys could be represented a little bit more in gay porn, but at least they ARE represented. There are so few Asian (South and East), Middle Eastern, and Ethnic Hispanic guys in gay porn, let alone porn in general. I know that it’d be harder to find these kind of guys willing to do porn because of their cultural background, but if all these porn studios can scout and recruit all these straight guys to do gay porn, then why the hell can’t they find some sexy Indian, Middle Eastern, and Asian guys to do it too??
Oh this won’t change anything at Raging Stallion. I love what Steve Cruz said, but I think the only line of the company he has the most influence to prevent a guy like Marc Dylan from getting work is Hard Friction. Chris Ward will be more than happy to give Marc Dylan work at Falcon, the fetishforce line, and even the main Raging Stallion line. If Chris Ward is fucking stupid enough to believe that casting godawful G4P trash like Tyler Torro, Bobby Clark and Paddy O’Brian would be way better than casting a hot gay couple of that time (Trenton Ducati & Tate Ryder), then he’s fucking stupid enough to keep on hiring more models with sexual prejudices.
Well this will only teach guys to give more political correct answers to these types of questions. Do you like black guys (in your head no) answer: I like guys that are attractive, thats it–or just say something along the lines of “I find all guys attractive, i don’t care about the skin color. I say this because if your a model at a big company (were you may have more say so than other companies, i would not know) you may never actually sleep with a a person of color. maybe, once. Even in armature companies you may only if ever sleep with one. You actually can go an entire career without a single interracial. The majority have and continue to. Next time, just don’t open up your mouth and hope for the best. Don’t bring unnecessary attention to yourself.
Truth be told as a paid prostitutes I do not believe your in the business of “Ok you can pay me to have sex with him, him and him, but not him”. Maybe if you were some sexual fantasy world but your not.
Yeah, I don’t think this will change much beyond performers lying or keeping their mouth shut about their racial preferences, much like their sexuality.
“You actually can go an entire career without a single interracial.”
and that shows the sort of racial inequality in porn. if a black porn star wants to make it “BIG” (ex: working for big studios, getting the same rates, choice of partners) he HAS to do interracial.
“Diesel Washington says:
September 3, 2013 at 2:54 pm
This is old news…
I like to Tip my hat to Steven Cruz and Bruno Bond, your statements come like a breathe of fresh air.”
That’s GOP type-talk for doing nothing, when you could have done something – AND LEAD – when it really mattered, and when they were most relevant; instead of cashing in on what their hypocrisy now exposes them for being. Tipping your hat to people who did nothing when it really could have made a difference is probably the most desperate reach for attention and association which Diesel Washington has associated himself with in quite some time.
Really what is the problem now, Josh?? I don’t see you doing anything to change the problem yourself.. You could have changed the problem yourself, by making your dollars do the talking…You could have sent emails yourself…You could have written blogs asking for diversity..
All you do is hide in the comment sections pointing your ugly finger at other people saying they should have done more..
I have been in porn since 2005, I have written blog after blog about the problems I see. I have talked to studio/site owners about the problem, I do Youtubes, Twitter rants about the problem and I took the time to get into porn Myself and try to handle the problem HEAD ON….
Back in 2005 I heard all the comments that Black models don’t sell well, Black models on box covers don’t sell as much as White models on the cover.
And I proved them wrong….My scenes sold like hot cakes, I was blessed to be on many covers during my career. I took my brand and tried to help other Models of color make it in this business. Today I try to educate models and give ALOT of models work at Dawgpoundusa.
So speak about what you know…..instead of just try to point that ugly thing you call a finger at Me.
And that relevant comment?
Been here since 2005, and still relevant to this business but now at a higher level. I direct/edit so I will make sure the spotlight is on Men of color TODAY
I don’t understand why some guys bareback indiscriminately yet refuse to have sex with a black, Latino, or Asian man. Why be racist when you can just be slutty?
P.S. Zach …. congrats on your ‘return’ …. no where else to post this, but I notice many of your SINGLE posts have nearly as many responses as ALL of Benjamin Bottoms posts did TOTAL. Obviously your readers see the difference.
Let black porn models start their own studios then. No one’s stopping them. If the market was there, then people would pay and they would make money. Quite simply, no one wants to see the black man fuck. If they did, then studios would be clammoring for the next gay Mandingo. It’s not racism, it’s economics. Get over it and make Uncle Abe proud!
I’m sure there is a market for it somewhere. But most white models don’t want to sleep with black models…granted I’m sure the white models refuse to do it for all the reasons black people secretly suspect.
The fact that you used “Mandingo” reveals what a racist fuck you are. Don’t you have a Teabagger or GOP convention you should be attending, instead of trolling this blog? Seriously, you’re a worthless piece of shit and an awful human being.
All of you guys are nuts. Welcome back Zach. We missed you and I can end my hunger strike.
Dont even get me started with this thread. It is insane. The ugly models with visible health issues working for major porn companies are concerned about working with a black porn star who does not exist. Give me a break. This is the BIGGEST created and non issue ever. Name any mainstream black gay porn stars. You cant! Diesel Washington is from the prior decade.
When will Steve Cruz hire someone without a beard should be the next Sword story. How many performers have said NO because of facial hair.
All of this is just haters against Marc Dylan but the fuzz creatures are not brave enough to say it so they speak in code tweets.
GIVE ME A BREAK
Race Cooper, Cutler X, Collin Black, Jay Black, and Austin Wilde come to mind without googling. Seriously they’re out there, and the issue is real. You can talk shit all you want that this is is a nonissue, but it doesn’t change the fact that you are wrong.
Cutler X and Colin black are good, I don’t like the others .
There is the huge resource of DawgpoundUSA and Taggaz that they should tap into, look at models like XL, Sarge or Brick. They looking fucking awesome, great bodies, beautiful faces, etc…
Invite these guys at Raging Stallion and see how they do…?
One other issue on the other side of the fence is that a lot of black guys don’t want to have sex with white ones either.
Fucked up situation, but it’s worth giving it a try!
You are amusing and make my point when you have to start naming bi-racial performers. Never heard of 2 other names you mentioned so thank you again for making my point. You know you are right when the opposition makes your point :)
Queen, please. There is no such thing as “Beardism”, there is such a thing as racism. You choose to have a beard, you do not choose your race. The fact that you would equate the two displays your own racism.
Good to see this from some higher up studio folks, but let’s be honest …THAT is where it starts …with the studios trying to capture their ‘target’ audience and ‘knowing’ what their consumers want to see and buy. Just look at the history of Falcon (and other older studios) as the example …. they had their ‘type’ and very really changed it up. Having watched a lot of Falcon porn, I think that I can remember fewer than 10 black men in their casts. And I say that as someone who could care less. A hot guy with a great body, ass, dick is a HOT GUY.
I applaud Mr. Steve Cruz and Bruno Bond for this. Hopefully, it’ll help some models get over their BS and just do their jobs. Some of these guys even claim to be straight, yet won’t perform with a non-white model! wtf does that tell you? If you’re straight and willing to fake sex with a man, why can’t you do it with a non-white man?
I will look forward to watch his upcoming interracial porn release with models who look like they enjoy what they are doing. That’s what his twitter posts are hinting at, right?
Tony, I’m full aware of how weird and creepy I am which is why I’m
Blown away at how weird you are actually makes me cringe! You’ve out weirded me dude. Kinda stole my thunder. Dumb bitch.
I usually love your comments, LBB (like you care, but for the record, I feel you embody a caustic indifference that usually rings as incredibly funny…though I’ve noticed you haven’t been posting lately except some drunk weekends…bummer for me and my fun!!). NOW the point: I don’t agree with your “creepy” opinion about Tony. Why? he’s pretty new and usually has quite realistic, grounded opinions I agree with, as well as being willing to follow up and stick up for himself. That I say is not all bad.
Attack Jo all you want, but seriously what is wrong with you attacking his mother? If he didn’t attack your mother then don’t go attacking his. And you wonder why QMN censors the shit you say.
Tony
sxg, fuck you and Jo’s mammy. Did I not tell you to not to respond to my comments, sxg? You need to mine your business. You are a typical Queen that continue to run off at the mouth because you, Jo, Andy, and Miss LadyBoyBunny would never say your hateful and racist shit to my face in fear of getting a beat down. If you don’t like what I have to say, ignore my comments.
Jo
Tony, you keep telling everyone not to comment on your posts. I must say, the answer to your hate speech is more speech, and that’s what this is about. Try to understand it, loser.
Tony
Jo, you and the other haters are punks. As I stated to you, you and the other racist punks on here attacking me would never say your nasty or racist comments to my face because you would get your asses kicked. Now take that to the bank, Queen.
Cona
So, now we’re the racists who wouldn’t say it to your face? is that your best response?
Mega-Ryan
Tony I adore and 99% of the time agree with your comments. I’m grateful you make your voice heard….but, please, condense into one concentric post instead of 5.
Thank you, Mega-Ryan. Will do! I lot this site because you are free to have an opinion, not like QMN. If you say anything negative about Marc Dylan, his fans and the owner of that blog will remove your comments and ban you.
Yes, they are pro- anyone thats renting. I made a comment about the stupid tattoo that Colton Long is sporting across his chest, “Living in sin is the new thing”, and I said “Connor Kline has competition now for worst porn tattoo”… though not really lol!! tatoo gaga-crap and you are officially lame). Probably it was up for a half-a-sec total because when I came back to check out the site/comments the next day it was gone. Imagine that. Hmmmm.
It’s just the guy that owns / runs QMN – he started removing comments at the request of Jake Genesis
Tony
I would never pay another man for sex unless it’s William Levy, Eddie Cibrian, or Eddie Matos. William Levy is hot and sex with him would be hot and wild. LOL Since I live in D.C., I started to call Marc Dylan over the telephone and ask him, would he turn a black man down to have sex with him for $1,000 for one hour? I would love to hear his response. I am so over this short muscular racist Southern man. Most black or Afro Latinos wouldn’t give this guy the time of day. Some might fuck him good and hard to make his hole bleed.
Tony, don’t you ever wonder why so many people dislike your comments? Have your ever thought about that you are a very opinionated, uneducated person? You seriously need to change your attitude!
Andy have you ever thought about going straight to hell?
Tony
I just got off RentBoy in D.C. and Marc Dylan is escorting in the District of Columbia. Do many of these gay porn stars don’t live in apartments, Condo’s, or houses? Why do they travel from city from city living in hotels selling their bodies for money?
Because that’s how escorting works, they tour cities. I mean you can’t expect all of the clients to come to you. I remember I used to get newsletters from Talvin DeMachio, a former pornstar and escort that kind of fell off the face of the earth. But he would regularly go to major cities in the US for about 3-4 days at a time and he would get booked pretty fast. I imagine for them less than a day’s work will pay for all of their flying and hotel expenses. Everything else is just gravy. Well mostly the ones that travel do it full-time.
Those that don’t ever travel are doing it as a side job.
I like to Tip my hat to Steven Cruz and Bruno Bond, your statements come like a breathe of fresh air. I have tried for far too long to make sure Diversity plays a part in Today’s porn. Its 2013 and NO MODEL in porn should be using the sexual preference card at all. We should be lucky to be paid for having sex on camera, the fact that you may work with a partner your not sexual attracted to comes with the job.
Finally a seasoned director comes out and speaks about an issue that has been robbing this industry of some amazing performers of all colors.
Take note Models, the choice is yours in who you sleep with off camera. But if I’m a director and I’m paying you for your services I have the right to choose your scene partner. This is not Match.com.
Hopefully this will set the standard for models to come into this business open minded and ready to explore what porn is really about.
Gay porn is about fantasy…..Nobody wants to hear the harsh reality of a Color preference when it comes to models who are suppose to build a Fantasy.
I think this reflects a problem in the greater gay community regarding race. We don’t talk about it. Why did Peter Lee have to start his own studio to feature Asian Models? Why can Coco dorm seem to find lots of Black talent but most the movie studios and online sites seem to be less diverse? Diesel I remember you did a scene for Nakedsword: Hooker Stories where you commented on the types of roles you’re expected to play as a Black man be fore you went to meet a client. We need to have a discussion about race in gay porn and in the gay community.
But the real difficulty is that white people don’t want to talk about race. Obama is president, remember? America is officially post-racial, so we’re supposed to stop making white people even think about it, and certainly not white gay people.
“Each successive generation seems to be making progress in changing attitudes when it comes to race. It doesn’t mean we’re in a post-racial society. It doesn’t mean that racism is eliminated.” Pres. Obama in comments after Martin trial, 7-19-13.
But why has it taken all of this time to pass for this “seasoned director” to stand-up and to put into action what he claims he so deeply believes in? It’s because he put his own personal self-interests before his own personal moral values. Somewhat hypocritical if you ask me.
dumb questions…if you’re in the porn industry why shouldn’t you chose the partners you are attracted to? I mean do you guys not get a choice in the matter? Do you have to sleep with guys you find disgusting to be in a movie?
I sort of figured you guys had a choice of what guys you could sleep with.
You have somewhat of a choice, but to be honest…Maybe this isn’t like today but….
When I made it into porn, if a Studio wanted to hire you, then you worked with whomever the Studio put you together with. Porn was selective you had your B list performers and you had your A list performers but regardless all the guys were hot so it was a Win Win.
Today not so much…
They will hire anybody off the street who looks decent, as either a replacement for a no show model or give him a starring role cause He is new to the busines. Some go to the extent to make that “Guy off the street” into a star because they can control him or grow him into a porn star.
It’s funny how some producers will see a Man of color as too Urban…
Yet a White guy can come from a Trailer park and shoot Meth and be seen as “All American” when the truth is that he is “White Trash”
A trailer park is just as Ghetto as someone living in the so called “Hood”
He doesn’t “play the race card” the race card is always in play and not talking about it doesn’t make it go away. Washington cannot go into a closet and be “white-acting.”
Persa
Performing in a porn scene is a job. It’s no different than taking an acting job. If you can’t perform the scene such that you are believable to the audience then you have no business working in porn.
The performers in a scene are not their for their personal pleasure. They are there to work, to create a fantasy for the viewers of the scene. Whether they like their scene partner or not, whether they are attracted to their scene partner or not shouldn’t matter.
I think folks confuse sex on a date or sex with a love with sex in a porn scene. They are not the same things.
Porn is performance. The job of the models is to create the fantasy for the viewers and make them believe it, be convincing, act as if (as it were).
I’m sure there are plenty of porn performers who can’t stand each other but who can put it aside and produce and incredible scene because it’s their job and they are being paid to do so.
That is the point that Steve and Bruno are trying to make.
When you show up to perform a scene for a studio and you are being paid, your personal likes, dislikes, etc go out the window.
It’s great when what you like/want matches up with what the scene requires but if it doesn’t and you can’t hang, you shouldn’t agree to do the shoot.
It’s very unprofessional to act as though being hired for a scene is like being set up on a date. I mean it’s nice if the actors get on and are attracted to each other from the get go, but it shouldn’t be a requirement.
well said Persa!
I’ve been trying to see this “issue” from different sides and I think it really does come down to what you are saying. Doing Porn is a JOB. People are trying to say “if they aren’t attracted to the partner they shouldn’t be FORCED to work with them”, but they chose to be in the industry and I would imagine the WORK comes from “acting” like you are attracted to the scene partner and having a good time. Otherwise, isn’t that like the best easiest job in the world — i get paid to fuck any hot guy I chose!? We all know things don’t come that easy.
Yes you should have the choice, and when that choice doesn’t coincide with whom the director wants you to fuck, they should kick your racist ass to the curb. Don’t ever complain when a model won’t eat ass, kiss, suck dick, etc., because I’ll throw that same shit back at you: Do they have to do things in these movies that they find disgusting; don’t they get a choice?
The ‘white dominated’ gay porn industry is not only the fault of the producers; there are a lot of models who won’t work with certain races. I am told over and over by perspective models during their interviews that “I’m not into _______” (insert race).
One time I was supposed to shoot a scene with a black guy and white guy, the white guy cancelled last minute, then we found a super hot replacement, who happened to be black. Then the black guy said he didn’t want to do a scene with another black guy…. really?? (I was kinda laughing because the replacement was gorgeous! Maybe the issue was the new guy was prettier than him…? ;)
I’d be open to have sex with other ethnicity, I think it would be fun to try em’ like toy collectibles or something.
I like all kinds of guys: different races, shapes, and ages. BUT I guess I’m not good enough for porn. Or I’m too freaked out by the prospect of having sex on set. I’d have wood troubles. :D Of course, I could just use some ED injectables, like most people who can’t. Of course, for those men who feel they aren’t “attracted” their partners races-they could just do the same to alleviate the problem. :D
Well, I give the dwarf credit–standing up for color-blindness in porn is a good thing. HOW-EV-ER, His Royal Shortness gives models who go back and forth between bareback & mainstream porn a free pass (Mike Dozer). So much for the “How I Roll” PSA he did…..
I’m mucho into latins, asians and several black guys. I thought eddie diaz was awesome, ditto for tyler johnson and colin black Always turns me on when i see him on screen, i love interracial porn.
lol @ the people here
As someone who works on adult sites, I can’t tell you how much the audience of some websites hates having black guys show up on the front page. I’ve had clients who’ve lost memberships over it, and we immediately see a drop in new memberships.
And don’t get me started on the amount of members who are black, and who would write in and bitch about having black models on because that’s not what they’re paying for.
Also, porn models are humans. Shocking I know, they aren’t cattle. And yes they get to pick who they work with. In the straight porn world women get to choose who they will and will not work with and what can and cannot be done to them sexually. It’s no different in the gay side of things, and it shouldn’t be
I’m happy that Steve Cruz responded to this issue. Unfortunately he’s already used Marc Dylan in several scenes. Hopefully that will come to an end, Marc Dylan will no longer get work unless he wants to go back to doing bareback scenes. Men of color are all different. Bodies, faces, asses, cocks, skin tone. To say you’re not sexually attracted to any of them is blatant racism period. I hope the stain on gay porn that is Marc Dylan goes away forever. And for you other redneck uneducated pornstars… You’ve been warned
Steve Cruz and Bruno Bond, formerly performed, currently direct porn for Raging Stallion which merged with Falcon about two years ago. Falcon, which has been since its inception, is a company that has featured predominantly white performers. Raging Stallion, however, had a history of being more ethnically diverse. As performers both Steve and Bruno, which are hot individually and smoking as a couple, did scenes with men of color including Huessein, Roman Wright, Marc LaSalle and Damien Crosse. (Yes boys in spite of his fair skin Damien Crosse is indeed latino)
Also I would like to convey a story overheard at dinner last week:
“My mother in law was furious about race talk and conversations about the confederate flag. She was like…what’s the big deal? It’s just a flag! So I asked her if she took all of her kids to school on the first day every year? She said yes. Then I asked her if they flew the american flag at the schools? She said yes. Then I asked if you drove up to the school one day and the American flag was gone replaced by a Nazi Swastika flag would you drop your kids off, drive away and not think twice about it? Hell no she said! I asked her why? Because…then she stopped and said because it represents hate!”
The point is this in this day and age if you do not think there is a problem with race in porn, in the gay community, in America at large you may be part of the problem
Seriously, get over yourself
As stated by a few other people, this represents a larger problem of discrimination in the gay community. I am a black male in my mid to late 20’s, (not to sound cocky) I’m good looking, am muscular, a nice guy and I live in Los Angeles. The amount of negativity and rejection I have received from other gays throughout my adult life has been astounding and surprising! From online hookups straight up saying that they don’t like black guys to actually being called a nigger to going out to bars in West Hollywood and not really being talked to amongst a sea of white guys baffles me. I have had guys say to my face that they don’t like black guys!! I’m all for having sexual preferences but to constantly hear the reason someone isn’t ever going to be attracted to you is because your black is just damaging!!
I worked in a big West Hollywood bar for a few years and for a time, there were only 2 other black people working in any of the other bars in West Hollywood!! Same goes for the gogo dancers, it is rare to see a black gogo dancer at any bars out here. There are a few but the number is miniscule compared to the white and latin dancers.
For the gay community, porn stars are our celebrities because they are of the gay world, enjoyed by the gay world. All we see in the real mainstream popular porn are white guys and light skinned latin guys. Yeah, every once in awhile a black guy will pop up but that is in 1 of every 50 scenes maybe! If you want to see guys of color, you have to go to a specific site where it is all black guys or all Asian guys, etc. I know it’s just porn but it really sends the message that men of color aren’t as attractive or desirable in the mainstream gay media, therefore in the gay community. It is 2013 in America and I think studios should make a conscious effort to diversify their products to reflect real life and show that non-white people are attractive! Porn isn’t going to change the world but it’s a star and something I’d like to see…
Why can’t you just accept the fact that you’re black and get over it. Some people don’t like you and that’s OK. You don’t have to like them back either. I’m sure there are plenty of black guys you can date.
He has every right to be offended that people aren’t attracted to him because of his race.
This is like when I would get called a snob because I would never EVER even sleep with someone who isn’t college educated (my snobbiness has since subsided). At least the black guy didn’t CHOOSE to be black; the uneducated guy DID choose to remain an idiot. Liking someone based on skin tone is a socially constructed idea in one’s head, NOT nature, and therefore it IS prejudice.
This lily white boy would be all over you if he weren’t married and lived in LA. You sound YUMMY!
There is NOTHING sexier than a well-read black man. NOTHING. Makes me spontaneously cum every time.
Why is a “well-read black man” so appealing to you? You think it’s a contradiction and therefore a bit “exotic?”
I see the opposite of your story. So many guys are ONLY into black men. I remember trying to score some of the hottest guys in the clubs during the 90’s in south beach. But they ONLY did black guys. If you are a hot black guy, you can land any gay guy you want. Society as a whole does discriminate against black people. But I see the gay community fall in love with the black guy. Look at the success of Blackballed porn videos of being gang banged by black guys. Seriously, isnt that every white guy’s fantasy? I know it has always been mine :)
Switch our LA with Dallas, and muscular with getting there, and you pretty much have my life.
I’m much into escorts and porn and i can tell you that at least in europe a good-looking black or asian guy is big game, everyone wants them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and interracial porn is the most visited (brand’ on free porntunes, so GO FIGURE
Personally, i also have my own preference and it would be really hard to make my dick harder if i see a screen partner who cannot make me stimulated. For me its not racism, its preference. Forcing me to have sex with guys that i am not physically attracted to is like forcing me to have sex with woman when I am totally GAY!
Oh, because being attracted to white people is hardwired in the brain like sexual orientation is? No one is born racist, your desires are formed psychologically.
You’re gonna have to provide a reliable peer-reviewed scientific source for that instead of talking out of your ass.
There is no consensus currently as to how sexual orientation arises in one’s character, and if it was formed psychologically (as it may very well be the case) , that wouldn’t change much of anything for me, unless you think gay conversion therapy is a thing. ANd there is even less of a consesus as to how sexual preferences arise. Two people raised in the exact same environment may have a completely different set of attractions/fetishes even if they share the same sexual orientation.
Sexual preference is not racism if the person does not make you hard.
If you refuse to sleep with her while you find her sexually arousing, for dodgy moral reasons (as in this race is inferior/disgusting), THAT is racism.
I have spent several months in the Philippines, not once have I been aroused by the men around me. 0, nothing. I didn’t think anything bad about them and they are lovely people, they just don’t get me going sexually. I DO NOT HATE THEM, do you get that??? A lot of attractive women there, though.
If a person doesn’t make you hard, what are you going to do? Tell your dick he is immoral and racist? Is that really what you would do ? And then what, Caverject? This is bullshit, sorry.
You need to look back at what racism really means, some people want to see it everywhere and really discredit the concept.
It’s more complicated than that. There are peer reviewed studies on sociological factors that demonstrate sociological factors in determining who is considered attractive, smart, worthy etc based on skin color.
The earliest is “the baby doll” test, and that’s just a Google search. Anderson Cooper reproduced it for a segment a while back, and actually little has changed.
Preferences can be formed by what society defaults to as normal, or as “better.”
But you’re not being paid to have sex with Filipinos. If you’re a porn actor and therefore being paid to have sex with whoever, if you can’t bring yourself to have sex with whoever, then you are out of a job and get replaced with someone who can do it.
I think that you are right. I feel that way about Asian Men. I have nothing against Asian men. I think they are beautiful and sometimes some of the nicest people that I’ve ever met, but I am not sexually attracted to them. Just doesnt do it for me. That does not mean that I am racist or have a hatred for Asians. That is the most ridiculous argument that has no ground to stand on. And to turn even that on its sided, I could sleep with an Asian man and still not prefer to. Just because you’re not sexually attracted to someone or a group of people doesn’t mean that the only other argument must be that you hate them. It would be different if I was looking at their physical features and saying it doesn’t work for me for this reason and that reason. No. Someone we have devolved into a culture that wants to latch onto the worst possible scenario when things don’t go our way. Which is sad and shameful.
I think we’re just attracted to our own personal ideal of beauty. Sure society plays a part in that concept. The problem is, you cant just say I’m only into white guys or I’m not into Asian guys. Damn some white guys are uglyyyy and man although society doesn’t sexualize Asian men, I’ve crossed paths with some incredibly attractive individuals. Individuals guys. People should be regarded as individuals. Is it racist to never be with a black guy? Is it racist to ONLY be with a black guy? As long as you don’t have hate in your heart, just keep living. We’re criticising the marketing decisions of a lucrative porn industry. You think they care to be PC? Porn has honesty opened up my eyes to knew attractions. Body types I didn’t think I’d like, facial features that I might have thought too feminine or some that I would normally think too gnarly/rugged. Different ages, ethnicities, personalities even. Societies ideals of beauty are changing anyway. Just keep the Convo going and eventually change will be upon us.
okay tell us what real racism really is dude. Im guessing you’re the type of person who think “its not racism unless violence is involved.
“Two people raised in the exact same environment may have a completely different set of attractions/fetishes even if they share the same sexual orientation.”
OH MAYBE BECAUSE DIFFERENT PPL CAN REACT TO A SAME SET OF STIMULI DIFFERENTLY. ER DERP.
you dont even need to do a study to know that speaking in terms of probability theory (specifically law of large numbers) if preferences/racial requirements arose in vacuums, we wouldnt see this skew towards “Oh only white ppl are beautiful. I have tons of black friends tho”
and there is DEFINITELY a skew. a simple google search (or if you prefer, you may use any other search engine used in academia…webofscience, jstor, google scholar, etc) will lead to TONS of peer reviewed articles and journals that show this skew in the heterosexual community. Whether or not studies have been done to show that this skew exists in the gay community, I would have to spend time to find out but lets be real, we’re all kidding ourselves if we think there isnt. I dont think the people that who have racial requirements are necessarily racists (although they can be) but lets all stop the bs and stop trying to act like it has nothing to do with racism.
Thanks Tom, it’s nice to see some readers of this blog don’t think “Sociology” is something they get tested for at the clinic.
You are gay! That means you should be attracted to men, not women.
I agree, some of these porn stars need to shut the fuck up and do their job.
i dont understand how a porn ‘performer’ even has a CHOICE?? ur being paid to show ur asshole on film and all of a sudden u have standards? if i were running the studio and someone said they refused to do a scene with a black performer i would fire the person simply because that is the business u are in. ur being paid to have sex….if u wanna be “Selective” about the races u fuck in ur private life then (u suck) but keep it PRIVATE! why are people so stupid?
I love and support all races and thank Diesel for his comments!
I said that above but it’s worth saying again, with links.
Look at the guys on this site http://www.taggaz.com, http://www.dawgpoundusa.com or http://www.blackmen.net
They look pretty fucking awesome I think (see NUbius, XL, Sarge for instance) and should be invited to work at other studios.
ANd I’ve been a member of Taggaz/Dawgpound, their content is really good, I recommend it AND I THINK MAINSTREAM GAY BLOGS SHOULD TALK ABOUT THOSE SITES TOO(none of them does, and that includes thesword despite the recent fake drama this issue prompted here)
Kiern Duecan is another hot black dude that deserves more attention from mainstream studios.
Hopefully Steve’s tweet has consequences.
I know part of the reason that they don’t get blogged about as much is because they don’t have affiliate programs, so you can’t make money from them. And depending on how many affiliate programs you’re a part of, you can get HUNDREDS of emails a week. So you don’t have a lack of content to choose from, from studios who make it easier on you. Why go hunt and find their content when you have so much to choose from?
Not to mention some of their websites are hard to use.
That’s just part of the attitude.
I’m white. I’m not SEXUALLY attracted to a lot of Black, Asian, or Ginger men. All I can say is I know there isn’t a racist molecule in my body. I don’t think they’re less than me in any way, or should be treated any differently than me. Personally I find it really offensive that people are calling Marc Dylan and others “racist” because of who they’re sexually attracted to. My lack of sexual interest in someone doesn’t have anything to do with how I feel about them as a person.
There have been occasions when I’ve been interested in a Black, Asian, or Ginger guy. Even if I had zero interest though, I don’t think it should matter to anyone. I don’t put “Whites Only, No Gingers” on my profiles or anything. I’m not going to pre-judge someone’s attractiveness based on whether someone tells me they’re black or white.
There are a WHOLE lot of white guys I’m not attracted to either. A lot of times people rave about porn stars on here (who are white) and I just don’t get it. Does that make me racist towards white people too?
What you’re saying is different from what Marc Dylan said. He said no blacks ever. You’ve admitted you’re sometimes attracted to people of different ethnicities, which is a step beyond Marc.
As mentioned above, who you are attracted to in your own personal life should have no bearing on who you can work with if you are a porn actor. As a porn actor, you are not being paid to go on your own dates and have sex with your own preferred partners. You are being paid to act in a scene constructed by a director at the behest of a studio. You’re free to be attracted to and fuck whoever you want or don’t want in your own life. But in porn – a *job* – who you are attracted to or not is not and should not ever be the issue. If you don’t want to fuck the other porn actor(s) in the scene, you are not the right actor to complete the scene’s cast.
I actually had a great conversation with a gorgeous white model who was the pass around bottom in a “men of color” porn. He told me it was the most challenging movie he’s ever done bc none of the black guys would even touch each other. They all just wanted his pink hole. He had to fluff all of them between takes bc none of them
Could “get into black guys”. Their words… Not his. He did it willingly bc he was a professional and loved black guys. So before we all go playing the white devil race card let’s just sit back and realize that’s its not always white guys saying they won’t work with black guys. Goes the other way too. I also have a couple gay male black friends and ive worked with 2 who will not date or sleep with black guys. Why? I don’t know but what should we call this? So let’s all ease up on the white male pornstars are all racists card. Oh and while we’re on the “race card” lets talk about Race. Race Cooper is hot, beautiful face, gorgeous body and a real PORNSTAR with class and professionalism. Diesel on the other hand is washed up, crazy and spends his days on porn blogs arguing and defending himself to his “haters”. Dude if you even have haters you should be grateful. YOU’RE TIME IS DONE. Does Race Cooper sit here talking with people who criticize him? Not that I know of… Wanna know why? Bc IMO he’s classy and can’t be bothered. You on the other hand DW are not. Studios don’t hire you not bc youre black, they dont hire you bc yr personality is too strong (ie crazy) and you’re washed up. Bow out gracefully and leave before the party is over dude (and btw your party ended years ago). That’s all I have. Night y’all!
When did this post become about Me…?
Here I am getting dissed by someone calling themselves Ladyboybunny SMH. Anyway you were suppose to comment on the topic when did you start comparing me to other porn stars? For someone who says they don’t care, you seem to study my habits and think you know Me. You Sir are one of my Haters that I come on blogs to defend myself against. While your studying Me, you seem to forget that Im directing for Dawgpoundusa and it seems that Dawgpoundusa was mentioned a few times in this post. My time is done and I have to Bow out?? I’m not leaving porn anytime soon, so your stuck with Me.
And keep comparing Me to Race Cooper, that is fine. I don’t see Race Cooper stating his opinions about Racism in gay porn. In fact I haven’t heard a single word from Race Cooper in regards to Marc Dylan, racism in gay porn, or Black stereotypes in gay porn, I haven’t heard his opinion or his Voice at all…
So when you compare Race Cooper and Diesel Washington, remember one states his opinions/stances and if something bothers him, he speaks on it. The Latter plays nice with everyone on the beach, even if they kick sand in his face.
I guess I’m just Crazy for Standing up for myself and what I believe in….
Time and time again you prove my point for me. Thank you DW. Good luck with your doggie pound adventures. Sounds like a smash
Hit!
It’s always amusing when someone talks about “the race card” as if it could be put away. Black people can’t stop being black, but they can stop being silent.
Of course the people who want them to be silent, usually want them to suck up whatever privileged b.s. they want to send down the slide.
…so what you’re saying is whites hating on blacks is okay bc sometimes black people hate on other black people? ever heard of internalized racism. In some Asian countries, people will look down on you and treat you like shit just bc your skin isnt light enough. But I mean, according to you that would be okay bc they’re all the same race and it has nothing to do with how the media is dominated by white people and filled with eurocentric ideas about beauty.
“I also have a couple gay male black friends and ive worked with 2 who will not date or sleep with black guys. Why? I don’t know but what should we call this?” It’s not that hard to call it what it is–internalized racism. That having been said, does that make it ok for you to be racist? Even brown people are racist toward one another, so leave me alone? Seriously, who are you? Paula Deen?
Ever heard of internalized racism?
I saw a behind-the-scenes for a video that Steve Cruz was directing between Paddy O’Brian and some other dude… anyway, Steve was really queeny and bitchy to Paddy (I guess Steve doesn’t like working with “straight” actors). Paddy surprised him and did an excellent job at the shoot though and Steve seemed impressed. After watching that, I’m sure Paddy would never work for Steve again. I’m gay and if I would have had to listen to that bitch fest, I would have walked.
Exactly Chuck Holmes is spinning in his grave what has happend to Falcon. Friends hire friends ,it has nothing to do with talent or race for that matter. Pretty sad and desperate you claim racism is destroying your company when Falcon really never hired many black performers before.
I don’t want to see Marc Dylan in *any* porn anyway. I don’t like racists, never have, never will – mega turn off!
Why does everything have to be “BLACK BLACK BLACK BLACK” when talking about guys of other races in gay porn? I feel like black guys could be represented a little bit more in gay porn, but at least they ARE represented. There are so few Asian (South and East), Middle Eastern, and Ethnic Hispanic guys in gay porn, let alone porn in general. I know that it’d be harder to find these kind of guys willing to do porn because of their cultural background, but if all these porn studios can scout and recruit all these straight guys to do gay porn, then why the hell can’t they find some sexy Indian, Middle Eastern, and Asian guys to do it too??
Oh this won’t change anything at Raging Stallion. I love what Steve Cruz said, but I think the only line of the company he has the most influence to prevent a guy like Marc Dylan from getting work is Hard Friction. Chris Ward will be more than happy to give Marc Dylan work at Falcon, the fetishforce line, and even the main Raging Stallion line. If Chris Ward is fucking stupid enough to believe that casting godawful G4P trash like Tyler Torro, Bobby Clark and Paddy O’Brian would be way better than casting a hot gay couple of that time (Trenton Ducati & Tate Ryder), then he’s fucking stupid enough to keep on hiring more models with sexual prejudices.
Uh oh…*grabs popcorn*
This beats the Real Housewives reunions any day.
Oh gawd. Does this mean Pam is going to be “guest editing” again?
Well this will only teach guys to give more political correct answers to these types of questions. Do you like black guys (in your head no) answer: I like guys that are attractive, thats it–or just say something along the lines of “I find all guys attractive, i don’t care about the skin color. I say this because if your a model at a big company (were you may have more say so than other companies, i would not know) you may never actually sleep with a a person of color. maybe, once. Even in armature companies you may only if ever sleep with one. You actually can go an entire career without a single interracial. The majority have and continue to. Next time, just don’t open up your mouth and hope for the best. Don’t bring unnecessary attention to yourself.
Truth be told as a paid prostitutes I do not believe your in the business of “Ok you can pay me to have sex with him, him and him, but not him”. Maybe if you were some sexual fantasy world but your not.
Yeah, I don’t think this will change much beyond performers lying or keeping their mouth shut about their racial preferences, much like their sexuality.
“You actually can go an entire career without a single interracial.”
and that shows the sort of racial inequality in porn. if a black porn star wants to make it “BIG” (ex: working for big studios, getting the same rates, choice of partners) he HAS to do interracial.
“Diesel Washington says:
September 3, 2013 at 2:54 pm
This is old news…
I like to Tip my hat to Steven Cruz and Bruno Bond, your statements come like a breathe of fresh air.”
That’s GOP type-talk for doing nothing, when you could have done something – AND LEAD – when it really mattered, and when they were most relevant; instead of cashing in on what their hypocrisy now exposes them for being. Tipping your hat to people who did nothing when it really could have made a difference is probably the most desperate reach for attention and association which Diesel Washington has associated himself with in quite some time.
I know who this is by the relevant comment:
Really what is the problem now, Josh?? I don’t see you doing anything to change the problem yourself.. You could have changed the problem yourself, by making your dollars do the talking…You could have sent emails yourself…You could have written blogs asking for diversity..
All you do is hide in the comment sections pointing your ugly finger at other people saying they should have done more..
I have been in porn since 2005, I have written blog after blog about the problems I see. I have talked to studio/site owners about the problem, I do Youtubes, Twitter rants about the problem and I took the time to get into porn Myself and try to handle the problem HEAD ON….
Back in 2005 I heard all the comments that Black models don’t sell well, Black models on box covers don’t sell as much as White models on the cover.
And I proved them wrong….My scenes sold like hot cakes, I was blessed to be on many covers during my career. I took my brand and tried to help other Models of color make it in this business. Today I try to educate models and give ALOT of models work at Dawgpoundusa.
So speak about what you know…..instead of just try to point that ugly thing you call a finger at Me.
And that relevant comment?
Been here since 2005, and still relevant to this business but now at a higher level. I direct/edit so I will make sure the spotlight is on Men of color TODAY
I admire what you do/say Diesel. Please keep speaking up when so many want to silence you so they can continue to live in ignorance.
I don’t understand why some guys bareback indiscriminately yet refuse to have sex with a black, Latino, or Asian man. Why be racist when you can just be slutty?
P.S. Zach …. congrats on your ‘return’ …. no where else to post this, but I notice many of your SINGLE posts have nearly as many responses as ALL of Benjamin Bottoms posts did TOTAL. Obviously your readers see the difference.
Let black porn models start their own studios then. No one’s stopping them. If the market was there, then people would pay and they would make money. Quite simply, no one wants to see the black man fuck. If they did, then studios would be clammoring for the next gay Mandingo. It’s not racism, it’s economics. Get over it and make Uncle Abe proud!
I’m sure there is a market for it somewhere. But most white models don’t want to sleep with black models…granted I’m sure the white models refuse to do it for all the reasons black people secretly suspect.
OMG your comments are SO tired.
The fact that you used “Mandingo” reveals what a racist fuck you are. Don’t you have a Teabagger or GOP convention you should be attending, instead of trolling this blog? Seriously, you’re a worthless piece of shit and an awful human being.
All of you guys are nuts. Welcome back Zach. We missed you and I can end my hunger strike.
Dont even get me started with this thread. It is insane. The ugly models with visible health issues working for major porn companies are concerned about working with a black porn star who does not exist. Give me a break. This is the BIGGEST created and non issue ever. Name any mainstream black gay porn stars. You cant! Diesel Washington is from the prior decade.
When will Steve Cruz hire someone without a beard should be the next Sword story. How many performers have said NO because of facial hair.
All of this is just haters against Marc Dylan but the fuzz creatures are not brave enough to say it so they speak in code tweets.
GIVE ME A BREAK
Race Cooper, Cutler X, Collin Black, Jay Black, and Austin Wilde come to mind without googling. Seriously they’re out there, and the issue is real. You can talk shit all you want that this is is a nonissue, but it doesn’t change the fact that you are wrong.
Cutler X and Colin black are good, I don’t like the others .
There is the huge resource of DawgpoundUSA and Taggaz that they should tap into, look at models like XL, Sarge or Brick. They looking fucking awesome, great bodies, beautiful faces, etc…
Invite these guys at Raging Stallion and see how they do…?
One other issue on the other side of the fence is that a lot of black guys don’t want to have sex with white ones either.
Fucked up situation, but it’s worth giving it a try!
You are amusing and make my point when you have to start naming bi-racial performers. Never heard of 2 other names you mentioned so thank you again for making my point. You know you are right when the opposition makes your point :)
Queen, please. There is no such thing as “Beardism”, there is such a thing as racism. You choose to have a beard, you do not choose your race. The fact that you would equate the two displays your own racism.
Good to see this from some higher up studio folks, but let’s be honest …THAT is where it starts …with the studios trying to capture their ‘target’ audience and ‘knowing’ what their consumers want to see and buy. Just look at the history of Falcon (and other older studios) as the example …. they had their ‘type’ and very really changed it up. Having watched a lot of Falcon porn, I think that I can remember fewer than 10 black men in their casts. And I say that as someone who could care less. A hot guy with a great body, ass, dick is a HOT GUY.
I applaud Mr. Steve Cruz and Bruno Bond for this. Hopefully, it’ll help some models get over their BS and just do their jobs. Some of these guys even claim to be straight, yet won’t perform with a non-white model! wtf does that tell you? If you’re straight and willing to fake sex with a man, why can’t you do it with a non-white man?
I will look forward to watch his upcoming interracial porn release with models who look like they enjoy what they are doing. That’s what his twitter posts are hinting at, right?
P.S. I would fuck redneck Republican Congressman Eric Cantor before I would fuck Marc Dylan. hehe
Tony, are you as creepy and weird in person as you come across as online?
you took the words right out of my mouth.
LadyBoyBunny, I am no creeper than a man calling himself LadyBoyBunny!
Tony, I’m full aware of how weird and creepy I am which is why I’m
Blown away at how weird you are actually makes me cringe! You’ve out weirded me dude. Kinda stole my thunder. Dumb bitch.
I usually love your comments, LBB (like you care, but for the record, I feel you embody a caustic indifference that usually rings as incredibly funny…though I’ve noticed you haven’t been posting lately except some drunk weekends…bummer for me and my fun!!). NOW the point: I don’t agree with your “creepy” opinion about Tony. Why? he’s pretty new and usually has quite realistic, grounded opinions I agree with, as well as being willing to follow up and stick up for himself. That I say is not all bad.
Well said LBB. Tony has no idea how he comes across. What an idiot.
Jo, your mammy is an idiot and the whore should have aborted you at birth.
Attack Jo all you want, but seriously what is wrong with you attacking his mother? If he didn’t attack your mother then don’t go attacking his. And you wonder why QMN censors the shit you say.
sxg, fuck you and Jo’s mammy. Did I not tell you to not to respond to my comments, sxg? You need to mine your business. You are a typical Queen that continue to run off at the mouth because you, Jo, Andy, and Miss LadyBoyBunny would never say your hateful and racist shit to my face in fear of getting a beat down. If you don’t like what I have to say, ignore my comments.
Tony, you keep telling everyone not to comment on your posts. I must say, the answer to your hate speech is more speech, and that’s what this is about. Try to understand it, loser.
Jo, you and the other haters are punks. As I stated to you, you and the other racist punks on here attacking me would never say your nasty or racist comments to my face because you would get your asses kicked. Now take that to the bank, Queen.
So, now we’re the racists who wouldn’t say it to your face? is that your best response?
Tony I adore and 99% of the time agree with your comments. I’m grateful you make your voice heard….but, please, condense into one concentric post instead of 5.
Thank you, Mega-Ryan. Will do! I lot this site because you are free to have an opinion, not like QMN. If you say anything negative about Marc Dylan, his fans and the owner of that blog will remove your comments and ban you.
Yes, they are pro- anyone thats renting. I made a comment about the stupid tattoo that Colton Long is sporting across his chest, “Living in sin is the new thing”, and I said “Connor Kline has competition now for worst porn tattoo”… though not really lol!! tatoo gaga-crap and you are officially lame). Probably it was up for a half-a-sec total because when I came back to check out the site/comments the next day it was gone. Imagine that. Hmmmm.
It’s just the guy that owns / runs QMN – he started removing comments at the request of Jake Genesis
I would never pay another man for sex unless it’s William Levy, Eddie Cibrian, or Eddie Matos. William Levy is hot and sex with him would be hot and wild. LOL Since I live in D.C., I started to call Marc Dylan over the telephone and ask him, would he turn a black man down to have sex with him for $1,000 for one hour? I would love to hear his response. I am so over this short muscular racist Southern man. Most black or Afro Latinos wouldn’t give this guy the time of day. Some might fuck him good and hard to make his hole bleed.
Unfortunately, i had the displeasure of reading your comments and i must say, you’re a total douche. U have no idea how ridiculous u come across…
Well don’t read my comments, Jo. I must have power over you that you took the time to read and respond to my comment.
LOL!
Tony, don’t you ever wonder why so many people dislike your comments? Have your ever thought about that you are a very opinionated, uneducated person? You seriously need to change your attitude!
Andy have you ever thought about going straight to hell?
I just got off RentBoy in D.C. and Marc Dylan is escorting in the District of Columbia. Do many of these gay porn stars don’t live in apartments, Condo’s, or houses? Why do they travel from city from city living in hotels selling their bodies for money?
Lack of job skills.
why not? its fun to travel! :)
Because that’s how escorting works, they tour cities. I mean you can’t expect all of the clients to come to you. I remember I used to get newsletters from Talvin DeMachio, a former pornstar and escort that kind of fell off the face of the earth. But he would regularly go to major cities in the US for about 3-4 days at a time and he would get booked pretty fast. I imagine for them less than a day’s work will pay for all of their flying and hotel expenses. Everything else is just gravy. Well mostly the ones that travel do it full-time.
Those that don’t ever travel are doing it as a side job.
This is old news…
I like to Tip my hat to Steven Cruz and Bruno Bond, your statements come like a breathe of fresh air. I have tried for far too long to make sure Diversity plays a part in Today’s porn. Its 2013 and NO MODEL in porn should be using the sexual preference card at all. We should be lucky to be paid for having sex on camera, the fact that you may work with a partner your not sexual attracted to comes with the job.
Finally a seasoned director comes out and speaks about an issue that has been robbing this industry of some amazing performers of all colors.
Take note Models, the choice is yours in who you sleep with off camera. But if I’m a director and I’m paying you for your services I have the right to choose your scene partner. This is not Match.com.
Hopefully this will set the standard for models to come into this business open minded and ready to explore what porn is really about.
Gay porn is about fantasy…..Nobody wants to hear the harsh reality of a Color preference when it comes to models who are suppose to build a Fantasy.
I think this reflects a problem in the greater gay community regarding race. We don’t talk about it. Why did Peter Lee have to start his own studio to feature Asian Models? Why can Coco dorm seem to find lots of Black talent but most the movie studios and online sites seem to be less diverse? Diesel I remember you did a scene for Nakedsword: Hooker Stories where you commented on the types of roles you’re expected to play as a Black man be fore you went to meet a client. We need to have a discussion about race in gay porn and in the gay community.
But the real difficulty is that white people don’t want to talk about race. Obama is president, remember? America is officially post-racial, so we’re supposed to stop making white people even think about it, and certainly not white gay people.
“Each successive generation seems to be making progress in changing attitudes when it comes to race. It doesn’t mean we’re in a post-racial society. It doesn’t mean that racism is eliminated.” Pres. Obama in comments after Martin trial, 7-19-13.
But why has it taken all of this time to pass for this “seasoned director” to stand-up and to put into action what he claims he so deeply believes in? It’s because he put his own personal self-interests before his own personal moral values. Somewhat hypocritical if you ask me.
dumb questions…if you’re in the porn industry why shouldn’t you chose the partners you are attracted to? I mean do you guys not get a choice in the matter? Do you have to sleep with guys you find disgusting to be in a movie?
I sort of figured you guys had a choice of what guys you could sleep with.
To answer your question…
You have somewhat of a choice, but to be honest…Maybe this isn’t like today but….
When I made it into porn, if a Studio wanted to hire you, then you worked with whomever the Studio put you together with. Porn was selective you had your B list performers and you had your A list performers but regardless all the guys were hot so it was a Win Win.
Today not so much…
They will hire anybody off the street who looks decent, as either a replacement for a no show model or give him a starring role cause He is new to the busines. Some go to the extent to make that “Guy off the street” into a star because they can control him or grow him into a porn star.
It’s funny how some producers will see a Man of color as too Urban…
Yet a White guy can come from a Trailer park and shoot Meth and be seen as “All American” when the truth is that he is “White Trash”
A trailer park is just as Ghetto as someone living in the so called “Hood”
It just boils down to color all the fucking time…
Why do you spend your life playing the race card?
He doesn’t “play the race card” the race card is always in play and not talking about it doesn’t make it go away. Washington cannot go into a closet and be “white-acting.”
Performing in a porn scene is a job. It’s no different than taking an acting job. If you can’t perform the scene such that you are believable to the audience then you have no business working in porn.
The performers in a scene are not their for their personal pleasure. They are there to work, to create a fantasy for the viewers of the scene. Whether they like their scene partner or not, whether they are attracted to their scene partner or not shouldn’t matter.
I think folks confuse sex on a date or sex with a love with sex in a porn scene. They are not the same things.
Porn is performance. The job of the models is to create the fantasy for the viewers and make them believe it, be convincing, act as if (as it were).
I’m sure there are plenty of porn performers who can’t stand each other but who can put it aside and produce and incredible scene because it’s their job and they are being paid to do so.
That is the point that Steve and Bruno are trying to make.
When you show up to perform a scene for a studio and you are being paid, your personal likes, dislikes, etc go out the window.
It’s great when what you like/want matches up with what the scene requires but if it doesn’t and you can’t hang, you shouldn’t agree to do the shoot.
It’s very unprofessional to act as though being hired for a scene is like being set up on a date. I mean it’s nice if the actors get on and are attracted to each other from the get go, but it shouldn’t be a requirement.
well said Persa!
I’ve been trying to see this “issue” from different sides and I think it really does come down to what you are saying. Doing Porn is a JOB. People are trying to say “if they aren’t attracted to the partner they shouldn’t be FORCED to work with them”, but they chose to be in the industry and I would imagine the WORK comes from “acting” like you are attracted to the scene partner and having a good time. Otherwise, isn’t that like the best easiest job in the world — i get paid to fuck any hot guy I chose!? We all know things don’t come that easy.
Yes you should have the choice, and when that choice doesn’t coincide with whom the director wants you to fuck, they should kick your racist ass to the curb. Don’t ever complain when a model won’t eat ass, kiss, suck dick, etc., because I’ll throw that same shit back at you: Do they have to do things in these movies that they find disgusting; don’t they get a choice?
And Dirk, that wasn’t @you. I meant YOU in general.
The ‘white dominated’ gay porn industry is not only the fault of the producers; there are a lot of models who won’t work with certain races. I am told over and over by perspective models during their interviews that “I’m not into _______” (insert race).
One time I was supposed to shoot a scene with a black guy and white guy, the white guy cancelled last minute, then we found a super hot replacement, who happened to be black. Then the black guy said he didn’t want to do a scene with another black guy…. really?? (I was kinda laughing because the replacement was gorgeous! Maybe the issue was the new guy was prettier than him…? ;)
I think ALL races are super hot…. YUM!!!
Steve Cruz is fiercely letting the ridiculousness have it.
marc dylan is not amused.
All that’s left is titan media– which wont feature models that have bareback on camera.
Sucks to be him.
I’d be open to have sex with other ethnicity, I think it would be fun to try em’ like toy collectibles or something.
I like all kinds of guys: different races, shapes, and ages. BUT I guess I’m not good enough for porn. Or I’m too freaked out by the prospect of having sex on set. I’d have wood troubles. :D Of course, I could just use some ED injectables, like most people who can’t. Of course, for those men who feel they aren’t “attracted” their partners races-they could just do the same to alleviate the problem. :D
Bunch of bullshit.
Did you just equate a person to a toy collectable?
Just making sure.
Gotta catch ’em all!
Pardon my ignorance but who is Steve Cruz? is he a big whig at Falcon?
