(Male bodies and man-on-man sex discussed in street language, so not suitable for kids or the sexually modest)
Yesterday’s Cyber Wednesday sale ad from the Falcon gay porn studio, edited for WordPress modesty:
(#1) Five things: a strikingly handsome face (vaguely familiar to me); a pitsntits presentation of one armpit and the pecs; bodybuilder abs; nicely furred forearms; and a thick 9″ cut pornstar cock, displayed rock-hard for shoppers’ delight (but fuzzed out here for modesty)
Four of these five things speak to my sexual being (I’m neutral on abs, but way into the rest of it). But the face held me for a long time. (Yes, I’m wild about dick, but images of disembodied dicks don’t move me; they need to come as living parts of an actual man. Even so, I start from the face.)
Mr. Wednesday, who is he? Falcon identifies the image in #1 as from their video California Kings. Which turns out to be from 1997, so this is a classic shot. And Mr. Wednesday is Mike Branson, a 5′11″ bodybuilder topman with that famous cock, which is, in its own way, monumental.
Branson had a brief career (1996-97), in which he did 9 films for Falcon. And I’ve posted on him, on AZBlogX (so I could show his celebrated cock), on 1/7/13 in “Falcons at Fallingwater”. From that posting:
Mike Branson, a genial ubermanly guy, with a sense of humor embodied in [a] dick-out-the-window presentation
… Direct, somewhat amused gaze combined with heavily developed musculature. [From] Al’s Gay Pornstars:
Mike Branson was a typical Falcon Studios hunk with a legendary, 9-inch and thick cut cock. Muscular and [brunet], he was a top who made [all] of his movies in the late 1990s. He identified as bisexual, stood about 5ft 11ins tall and had blue eyes. After porn, he went to college and earned an engineering degree.
… [in another publicity shot,] Branson establishing ultra-high masculinity by appearing in leathers, with a crotch cut in the pants. Plus a black bike:
(#2) There was no way to fuzz out the cock in this one, so I had to crop it, thereby eliminating most of the big black bike parked behind Branson’s spread legs; nevertheless, a fine performance
This time, with a dominating topman face, plus those well-muscled and furred forearms, the better to hold you hard.
I’m posting this gay porn ad, out of the many that come my way every day, because of the excellent composition of the publicity shot, and the shot seen as a presentation of self (a performance, intended to convey something about the model that goes beyond the display of his extraordinary body). Then, once I saw who it was, because of my interest in the life histories of sex workers: how they get into the work, how they manage their lives while they’re on the job, how they move out of sex work or find a long-term niche in it. Well, I’m interested in life histories and also in the ways sexual desires, practices, and identities are folded into social life.
