Shane Erickson found dead

[AZDormouse]

I’m sad to pass along that former porn star and provider Shane Erickson passed away last week. 

I noticed that his RentMen page had been removed  and out of curiosity I started a web search to see if something had happened, and then I came across a GoFundMe page that has been created to help with his funeral arrangements.  

There’s not much information on his death, but his partner briefly talks about what happened on the GoFundMe page.  

I’ve linked the page below only because it seems to be the only information available about his passing I have found, and it is not posted to intentionally solicit for donations.  

On a personal note, he was one of my early porn star favorites way back when I was back in college and I still enjoy watching a couple of his films even to this day.  I was hoping that I might have gotten a chance to actually meet up with him when visiting Palm Springs next year. 

May he Rest In Peace…

Hi, my name is Michael and I was Eric (some of you may know him as Shane) Crew’s partner. A week...

 (I apologize if this is the wrong forum to post this in, I wasn’t quite sure or not.)

What a shame.

In 2015, he wrote about being a victim of rape and sexual abuse. Very impressive, even more so considering most of us don't think of porn performers as being so eloquent.

Poor guy.

Can you imagine not having the 5k $ to do the cremation. So fucking SAD.

Male rape is much more common than thought. Specially if you are a kid. I don’t know if it will bring you to kill yourself but who knows. Everybody reacts in a different way. If a kid is really small probably he will try to erase the experience from his memory.

But there are always going to be flashbacks. Probably it will be remembered as a bad dream or a nightmare, as an unreal thing.

I did not know the guy. Anyway I went to the Gofundme website. So sad.

Sad 😞 I hope his friends and loved ones find all the strength and comfort in the world.

My favorite version of this is:

It’s the mental balm I use whenever the joy of charity starts to fade and rub.

Beyond sad. . .tragic. Too often, life becomes unbearable for these "lost boys".

It's quite sad to me that despite doing porn and sex work, he had so little to show for it. It's a powerful reminder to clients that providers are people; some who enjoy their work; others who feel that they have no choice.
