Okay, so I’ve had wine for dinner, but are we enablers?

I have had that thought over the years. Then I think that if these guy weren't making money in porn and escorting they would be mugging 90-year-old grandmothers to get $$$ for their drug habits. So perhaps porn/escorting is the lesser evil.

I hope you're not suggesting that people who become actors/actresses in adult entertainment do so to support pre-existing addictions, and that the alternative would be a violent life of crime.

Yes, or even a different scenario: being in a codependent relationship with someone who's simply an atm.

 

I recently lost an "old" friend likely due to some kinda drug overdose (old because I let go of the friendship after receiving disparaging messages from him a couple months earlier) who was critical about my lifestyle choice about being an escort, yet he was living off of a guy and their relationship was volatile, but both of them seemed to enjoy their brewing toxicity amongst the lavish good times they would have.

 

That said, I'm not sure where this drug addiction reference came into play. Nothing in the article seems to point to that.

Thinking about this a bit more, I reflect on the cases that come to mind in my own life of young men killed in tragic circumstances. Just a few from when I was young, three young men who worked at summer jobs with me in different years while at university like myself, were killed in accidents.

 

One, when his girlfriend drove off the road a couple of weeks after our jobs ended, flipping the car and he was killed; another, a university student from Toronto who was killed on the first day of the job at a construction site; I had flown with him the previous day to get to the remote location in Labrador; another who was drowned in a sailing accident off the Bahamas in a hurricane the winter after I had worked with him and had got to know him travelling back and forth to our work site together from Montreal.

 

All in their early twenties, all beautiful young men who would be my age now had they lived, with 50 years of wonderful experiences.

 

Life is funny that way. It’s a roll of the dice.

The queermenow article has a link to the following reddit article that mentions Bo Dean's meth addiction -

I agree that there can be other reasons, aside from purchasing drugs, why a straight man might agree to do gay porn .... not fair of me to presuppose anything.

That's usually the age most die of unnatural causes. Taking chances because of testosterone, lack of prefrontal cortex development , or just thinking of yourself as invincible. For Gay men it's usually std's, gym stupidity (steroids and/or just hurting yourself constantly), and drugs.

 

It's the same reason we send them off to war because you'll never convince say a 40 something to put themselves in harms way like that. All my health issues today were all due to the stupid risky shit I did in my younger years that's finally caught up to me. ?
