This is interesting. He is clearly the person who was a victim of a hate crime and he's featured in an NYT Op Ed video from 2013. Not here to judge a persons journey, he clearly went through something very traumatic and trauma can certainly change a person's journey though I would venture a guess the pitch to gay men that he is straight is a selling point. I've been curious to book him as well but I need a table massage and this added information makes me hesitant for some reason. It's just odd to come from where he is coming from and sort of gay bait clients that you are straight which for the client adds an element of risk. I don't know, a person who is a victim of a hate crime very well could go through a process where they change their entire persona as a self protective response. I guess end of day if he is a talented masseur that is really what matters.
