Thanks for this sad truth, BC.

 

Sigh.

 

Very, very sad.

 

The only itty-bitty fleck of silver in this VERY dark cloud is that it reinforces my very difficult decision never to subscribe to those sites again. I made that decision when they went all-bareback all the time. Hard choice to make, because many of the boys they feature are my idea of true living adonises ... but I will not use a single dollar of mine to subsidize the destruction of young lives.

 

Next question is how many parallels there are here between this Prague situation and one or both of the American sites whose young men I find virtually irresistible, but whose movies I will no longer subscribe to: SC and CF. They also seem to have gone all bareback all the time. Clearly, these American guys have more options (at least theoretically) open to them than the gods of Eastern Europe, but how many of them are also being exploited?

 

Anyone know the inside scoop on our home-grown, high-end, jock-stud BB sites?

Very sad story of wasted youth!

 

"Many, intoxicated by making relatively good money for such quick work, turn to drugs and prostitution, only to be washed up, tragic figures before they hit their mid-twenties (many also probably end up HIV-positive, although the movie doesn’t go into this)."

 

You can say the same about a lot of escorts who were born in the USA, easy money is never good when you have no "middle-class values" and you believe it will last forever.

 

Aaron Hawke: "I’m a big star in America," Hawke says early in the film, even as he laments that he only made $10,000 for all his work".

 

I know some pornstars who retired with less than that because spending money or drugs, alcohol, fashion, etc. You can say the same about some Appalachia, Southern and Midwestern boys who escape to big cities. We have our own 3rd world country in many parts of this country

Please check posting 19 by Mike formerly from Nola, now Tampa Bay area. It's brilliant!

 

Posting 12 is hard to assimilate, a guy made plans with Ryan 3 times, and he didn't show up all 3 times, "flake on my once, shame on you, flake on me 3 times after I made plans with you 2 extra times, shame on me"

Thanks BC, another thoughtful post...I am in sad agreement with SC. I suppose I knew, but also turned a blind eye to much of what was happening in Prague. Like many Americans I went running to the "heartland" as it were, back in 90's, and never once gave a second thought to what some of these boys were going through.

 

I think that SC makes a excellent point in regards to subscribing and supporting those sites that do not support safe sex. Barebacking it seems has come out of the closet, and when talking to many of these young guys, many don't even give it a second thought. Perhaps if enough people spoke by withholding their dollars, some of these studios and sites would act more responsibly.

I agree with you, but where were you when I was the only one on a previous thread saying I wouldn't hire an escort who BB in and out of the screen?

Recently, I was out of touch for a few weeks; before that, I think I was posting in parallel threads about BB porn.

 

I agree with you completely.

Spike from Falcon studios got kicked out of Chelsea guys by Ricardo and his only belongings where in a suitcase. After being such a big pornstar in the 90's had had absolutely nothing.
