I mean, I suppose it’s not so crazy, as they seem to be doing the same thing with bloggers. Twenty-six of them! And it made me wonder: are people just going around adding their favorite pornographic actors as their friends. I clicked over to Colby Keller’s Facebook page (why not?) and saw that we have a lot of mutual friends. Sure, Facebook once suggested that I might know comedian and SNL writer John Mulaney, but that seemed more legit because he’s a comedian, and they’re basically normal people with neuroses and problems just like me! And yeah, once Facebook suggested Wallace Shawn, but I figured that was more of weird look into my personality. But the concept that he is a real person is so foreign to me, because I’m not generally in the same social circles as porn stars. I mean, again, I’m not really complaining. So imagine my surprise when he popped up unexpectedly in my Facebook feed today. The guys are on that show are insanely buff and only exist, at least in my eyes, on The Real World. I mean, he’s hot, so it’s certainly understandable! Usually guys like Colby Keller fall into a category I refer to as “Real World hot.” Not like, the real world, but The Real World. That’s cool! No judgies! He’s also got a popular blog (NSFW, obvs) and is pretty popular among all walks of gay dudes. To get you up to speed: he has sex with other men on camera. So at the very least, that disproves the absolute statement "gay porn stars never identify as a bottom" with a refutation by counter-example.If you’re not a gay man, you may not know who Colby Keller is. So, it seems that he identifies as a bottom, and that identification is played up in the industry.īeing a heterosexual man myself, I can't provide any insight on how well-known this particular gay porn star is, or the prevalence of gay porn stars who identify as bottoms, but there is at least one gay porn star who publicly identifies as a bottom, and uses that identification as a (the?) major component in his projected image.
Like I always say, "Don't call yourself a power bottom if you're going to bitch and complain about how much it hurts, if you're going to do that than you should've became a top so shut up and take it!" lolĪnd there's also a video interview (I haven't watched) titled "Armond Rizzo Interview on being Porn's Famous Bottom" that can be viewed on Pornhub (among other places). I just control my breathing and relax my hole and be a good bottom that just takes it. I guess being and athlete and a true bottom that loves getting fucked. I honestly do not know how how I do it lol. How did you prepare your hole for such big dicks like Noah Donovan's? It's super stretchy and you can get really wide. So to flip the switch and be top is pretty exciting too! I love being pushed to try new things and I love to try to embody a new character. But to top, well I guess those times I was forced to do it, although I didn't mind. So it really does not take much for me to bottom. I enjoy it and love it so much and I am 100% committed to taking what ever challenge I get. What is the draw for bottoming for you?īottoming for me comes so easy. In most scenes you're 100% bottom and I've seen you flip fuck maybe a couple of times. At least one gay porn star identifies as a bottom.Īrmond Rizzo is a gay porn star of some repute (254k Twitter followers), and the top page or two of results I got for a Google search for ~ gay porn star self-identified bottom.Īccording to an interview with "Gay Demon" (explicit images present on site, in addition to explicit sexual language): (which has summary for laymen in a Vice article), about half of the sample (N=429) identified as versatile, and approximately one quarter as top and respectively bottom, however the self-identification wasn't always concordant with penetrative behavior:Īnyway, the question about gay pornstars' projected image remains. (Emphasis mine.) Is that last sentence the absolute truth as written there or is it an approximation/exaggeration?Īfter a bit more searching, it turned out that the first part of the statement is in even more serious doubt, from "The influence of physical body traits and masculinity on anal sex roles in gay and bisexual men" Being the bottom is seen as inferior to being the top among gay men-to the point that gay porn stars never identify as a bottom, only as versatile. Some men go both ways-calling themselves "versatile"-but this is not as common. In the book Gay Affirmative Therapy for the Straight Clinician: The Essential Guide (WW Norton 2009), it is stated on p.
