Straight Porn Conglomerate Manwin Threatens The Sword Over Rocco Reed Coverage: “If we can’t have respectful coverage, I am going to close your affiliate account”

Yesterday, a representative from straight porn conglomerate Manwin sent me the below email threatening to shut down The Sword’s affiliate account with their gay property, Men.com.

In case you aren’t familiar, Manwin is the billion dollar straight porn conglomerate whose owner Fabian Thylmann was arrested in Belgium late last year on charges of tax evasion. Then in March, it was revealed that Manwin took $168 million from multiple Wall Street firms, causing investors to scramble. A few weeks ago, their former exclusive Rocco Reed (who last year jumped from the company’s straight studios to their sole gay producer, Men.com) blindsided them by announcing his retirement. I was never a fan of Rocco Reed’s terrible performances, nor did I appreciate Manwin’s stupid and cynical idea to foist him on gay porn fans who, like me, are also sick to death of terrible gay-for-pay performers. (In a recent poll, 70% of The Sword’s readers said they agreed with my opinion of Rocco Reed; the other 30% were no doubt Manwin employees in Ireland, Canada, and Luxembourg.)

Now, a Manwin representative named Chad Jeffery has sent the below email threatening The Sword.

Here is the email:

Hi Zach,

Did you ever see Perez Hilton talk about the heart-to-heart he had with Jennifer Aniston? She asked him, “why are you so mean”?

Zach, I would like to be your Jennifer Aniston. You are gratuitously mean to your competition and their models. After the last few Rocco Reed articles we have really begun to see you as a bully. You also have a habit of reveling in misfortunate (usually resulting from bad choices) of certain stars that makes it appear you really love to kick people when they’re down. Reading your coverage from the Grabby awards, it’s obvious that you have a great sense of humor and tons of creativity. You really don’t need to spend so much time hurting feelings and turning decent people into laughing stocks. Why are you so mean?

If we can’t have respectful coverage on your blog, I am going to have to close your affiliate account and ask you to not talk about us anymore.  We have a sense of humor, but in an industry this small we feel like it’s important to take a small stand on behalf of the people that work with us.

What Chad Jeffrey apparently doesn’t understand is that even if he did close The Sword’s affiliate account with Men.com, that doesn’t mean The Sword would have to stop talking about Manwin or any of its properties. Sorry. It just means that The Sword wouldn’t be using affiliate links (and making $13 per sign-up) while doing so. Chad Jeffery also apparently doesn’t understand that for all of the unapologetically “mean” coverage of Rocco Reed, The Sword posted an exponential amount of overwhelmingly positive coverage of Men.com’s scenes with Tommy Defendi, Topher DiMaggio, Andrew Stark, Dale Cooper, Duncan Black, John Magnum, Jessie Colter, and Colby Keller, and even named Johnny Rapid the Face Of 2012. Oh well.

What kind of message does Manwin’s threat send to other bloggers who might want to actually review or criticize Men.com content? (Not that any other porn bloggers actually criticize anything.) I guess everyone better be “respectful” of Manwin, or else!

  1. I wish that poll had a third option for someone who thinks you should both just end your affiliation.

    I’m not a fan of Rocco Reed (and lordy, I tried to be), and the disappointing scenes etc are definitely worth flagging up. You are quite frequently a bit heavy-handed with the meanness, and I think if anything I’m pleased that, in a world where stars feel like taking their own lives, a studio has stood up for one of its performers, even though they knew you’d never stop and they’d likely lose the benefit of your talking about them – they must have known you would post this email.

    I’m afraid that in terms of a business relationship, if I felt you were publically going out of your way to be mean to one of my employees, I would be sending you that email too. It’s not an unreasonable thing to ask, that you stop singling out one of my men for ridicule or I’ll have to end our agreement, which you are benefiting financially from.

    Whether he’s a good performer doesn’t come into it here, because you entered an affiliate deal with someone and now they’re asking you to respect their feelings and stop bullying an employee. It’s hardly a threat to the world of free speech. If you don’t have the affiliate account you’ll be able to say whatever the hell you like about anybody and be as mean as you want, and they won’t have a leg to stand on.

  2. Fuck them. Sounds like someone’s got their panties in a bunch over there at Manwin. They should pull them out of their crack before they get shit stains on em’.

  3. Who gives a damn if he has a bad opinion about gay4payers like Rocco, it just goes to show that even for bloggers they are starting to out stay their welcome.
    the Gay4pay brand is is a dying one that mostly appeals to men over 35 who still have medieval views of what gay sex should be. The younger generation of gay men
    most likely don’t even know who Rocco Reed or Paddy O Brian are and Str8 men in gay porn being attached to their titles does nothing to help that.
    I say put them all out their misery soon because eventually more than a few share of people will have a problem with them still representing the world of gay porn.

  4. The Sword is different than ABCXYZ because Zach actually has an opinion and isn’t just trying to get you to buy a membership to the site/person he is writing about. If you want a blog without personality just pick one of the other 18,483,237 gay porn blogs.

    The reality is that the biggest shit talking posts on The Sword get the most page views and comments. It’s interesting that Chad cites Perez Hilton as Perez has never actually been a mean person. Mario is actually quite friendly (if a bit ridiculous). Instead, he became one of the biggest celebrity blogs because he called shit as he saw it. Meanwhile, each post had hundreds or thousands of comments slamming him yet that is where people chose to spend their time. Only after he secured his position (and cash cow) did you start to see the softer side of the character that is Perez.

    Another thing about Perez since he was used as an example. Many of the celebrities that “hate” Perez actually like “Perez” and feed him stories. The same as TMZ. Certain celebs have 24/7 coverage by the paparazzi because either they or someone in their camp tip them off about what they’ll be doing. Publicity is a funny business.

  5. The bottom line is that Rocco never had a decent gay scene. That noodle dick never got hard since he started at Men.com. We’re talking gay porn here! Isn’t a hard dick sort of a prerequisite?

  6. I just injected some caverject into my eyelids. Now, while I might scare the shit out of you while sleeping with my eyes partially open – I think it has taken years off of my looks.

    Beautifully yours,

    Jeniffer “Chad” Aniston

  7. Again, I don’t understand Rocco Reed’s relationship with Manwin. First he gets the WalMart of porn to pay him for dozens of scenes (almost all of which he’s limp in), now he’s got this billion-dollar organization acting like passive-aggressive mean girls. Is his dick magic or something? Is he blackmailing the CEO? I don’t get it!

  8. You actually come off as an insecure child. You derive pleasure from your pathetic commentary, but it’s a double-edged sword. You make fun of others to hide your sad hairy self-hatred.

    1. Please. Whine much or trying to save the others?

      Most of what he does is just bring to attention the often stupid, immature and ridiculous “antics” of these guys who can’t do anything but have meltdowns publicly on Twitter.

      Rocco is not awful. He’s fucking godawful terrible and I’m glad he’s “retired”. I don’t understand why calling a spade a spade is such an issue especially when it’s true.

      I guess the rule of thumb now is don’t write the truth? Don’t call a spade a spade because of $13.00 a signup? Get the fuck out of here.

      Don’t want to be critiqued? Don’t perform or at least perform well.

  9. hi estelle, your right i have had a few. LOL. There is a reason for that action.

    A note:
    But anyway, I do have to lean towards Zach with this one. If you don’t like the post don’t read it, if you have a choice to accept a website as your affiliate, you run the chance of then making it more entertaining. It’s porn. I also find it confusing that the letter to Zach states he ‘revels in the misfortune in other’. Everyone has situations that occur no matter studio or model, so if either party makes its it public it becomes public consumption of the story no matter misfortune or fabulous part in new mainstream movie.

    ps. estelle I do have another website now LOL – 10001

  10. Way to go Zach. FUCK THEM. I cannot believe that someone from an actual gay porn company would even waste time sending you this type of email. What a joke! I’ve watched MEN.COM’s limp dick shit for about two weeks when I first heard them about a year ago and I quickly lost interest. The same crappy scenes. If they can’t take honest criticism, then let them cancel the account and don’t let the door hit them in the ass on the way out. How ungrateful they are, especially after you gave multiple praise to other scenes/actors in their stable.

  11. While I’m not now nor ever have been a Rocco Reed fan, if we’d known six months or a year ago what Jake Genesis would become, he would have been worthy of as much venom as Reed has gotten from you but Rocco definitely deserved some of it.

  12. LOL! Some of you delicate flowers must not reed menofporn, just us boys, queerclick, queermenow, waybig, or the 10000 temporary gossip blogs Rob Romoni puts up for a few months then takes down.

    What I find funny is that most of you don’t get that Zach doesn’t have to even write at least half of these stories-they write themselves. Whether it’s a pornstar twitter meltdown, porn companies that treat their gay talent like shit, a God awful scene/movie with zero passion or chemistry, the rabid fangurls who will defend a performer to the death, the dramatic retirements and unretirements, the 500 mugshots a performer acquires before, during, and after their careers, and some of the outside porn work some of these guys attempt. All of these things happened before and Zach just pointed them out since well he writes about the porn industry.

    This blog and its comments are a cakewalk compared to what you read on IMDB, TMZ, Huffington, etc…

    Rocco stunk as a performer and it was pointed out on more than just this blog. His parting words when leaving the industry were the dingleberry on top of the shit pie of his porn career and confirmed pretty much what had been written about him in the last year.

    The only thing that really ever bewildered me on here was when Zach had to remove the posts about Jake Cruise and his hypocrisy towards condoms with male/male and his now defunct male/female website. I think that was more because it blew up in his and Jasun Mark’s face and a lot of performers came out of the woodwork to point out how hypocritical it was and the underlining homophobic message that a “gay owned company” was sending out.

  13. I’m almost a little sad they never sent me a letter for saying that Rocco’s bottoming debut was like watching the neighbor’s dog poop on your lawn.

    WHY DOESN’T MANWIN HATE/LOVE ME?

  14. You just get what you did. Don’t bite the hand that feeds you.

    I have always wondered why Zach publicly spreads hateful words toward numerous people in and outside the gay porn industry. You once strongly criticized anonymous trolls, but I don’t think cyberbullying under the real name is any better than anonymous trolls.

    It’s sad and disappointing ’cause I think you are definitely the funniest gay porn blogger and seems like a nice guy to some people.

  15. This is a huge honor for you. Manwin deems you important enough to threaten you. If they were smarter, they would just ignore it and move on while basking in the positive feedback and coverage they do get from you as a company versus focusing on the coverage of one performer.

  16. Huh …. interesting situation.

    As a reader of your site, I pick and choose which posts I want to read. Not everything appeals to me and I pick and choose. Whether I think you’re 100 % funny or not or 100 % mean or not doesn’t impact my overall enjoyment of the site. And like everyone else (including Chad), I and you have thinks you like, dislike, are going to praise, criticize, etc.

    So, it’s odd that the guy took this ‘stand’. Especially since as you said, you’re just as (if not MORE) willing to praise or recommend other men.com content. I can attest to the fact that a large number of posts with links that I’ve clicked on have gone to men.com content. (heck, I even watched the Rocco Reed 4 black guy orgy !!)

    I don’t understand all of the ‘business’ of click throughs, etc, etc ….. but I would think that men.com has as much, if not more, to lose by closing your affiliate account. It would be funny if YOU told him you were going to stop featuring any of THEIR content (good or bad). But like I said, I don’t know who is ‘hurting’ who worse here.

    But, Chad needs to suck it up. (Maybe Rocco IS getting hard with Chad …ha !). If the majority of your content is favorable, then he has nothing really to complain about. Is Zach a mean girl sometimes ? Sure, we all are. Do you knock it out of the park every time ? No, but you try. I guess like anything else, if they feel your site isn’t a place they want to be affiliated with, then that’s their call.

  17. Let’s see. Manwin, a str8 owned and operated huge porn conglomerate that produces cookie cutter assembly line porn(not to mention that a huge portion of the gay content is borderline fag bashing). Owns tube sites that “contributors” post pirated videos, then force the producers of said videos to sell content for pennies on the dollar. Then get’s offended by less than glowing reviews by bloggers.

    Yea, fuck ’em Zach. Your irreverent humor is what makes this blog a fun read. Plus I’m sure they have caused many to actually sign up via the affiliate links. Maybe them pulling the affiliate links isn’t such a bad idea!

    1. all truths. I wonder if Zach calling their bluff by publishing the email made them cancel his account already…

  18. He was a lousy performer and chooses to retire with the line “I’m not gay nor have I ever been.” Your articles were more entertaining than his gay porn career. For that reason alone, I’m sad to see him go. Team Zach all the way!

  19. If they close your account I’m cancelling my membership. You’ve done nothing than to point out a bad performer and a shitty marketing strategy based on the stereotype that all gay men lust after straight men.

    I like men.com, they have a lot of good performers. But the way they’re trying to censor you for a bit of negative press in the midst of so much positive press you give them is disappointing.

  20. Very interesting stuff. This is a manipulative email from Chad Jeffery however I feel that at times The Sword and in particular whoever writes these pieces (Zach?) sometimes goes too far and I’m not purely talking about Rocco Reed or Paddy O’Brien.

    I totally understand the dislike of ‘gay for pay’, gay porn should be performed by gay models – its authentic for the viewers and puts the payments into the right hands – of the gay models. It seems to me it is the studios at fault here there appear to plenty of gay porn stars so if they are employing straight models for gay scenes, perhaps objectors should boycott these studios to show their opposition. It is not the straight model’s fault they are just trying to earn a living just like everyone else. Thus taking your opposition, to the studios policy, out personally on the model is ineffectual and really just shows The Sword (or whoever is making the comments) in a bad light. {side-note : Had to smile at the line in the email about models ‘bad choices’ perhaps they would do well to recognise* their own}

    Again digressing slightly. The limp dick of Rocco Reed illustrates something else too, if a performer is not truly ‘into’ men it is pretty difficult to fake. I heard this somewhere before ‘the dick doesn’t lie’ [Actually I believe I should credit the phrase to Van Darkholme (Kinkmen) in an interview with Logan McCree/Sam Barclay]. It makes it even more illogical to me to use ‘straight’ performers in gay scenes.

    Humour* is great and much needed, but a middle ground needs to be steered. A little empathy and common sense goes a long way. The coverage of the ‘Grabbys’ was great, very funny and just irreverent enough, on the other hand I have already commented on a previous post on this blog I thought was cruel.

    I support a campaign NoH8 co-founded by Adam Bouska, and although this appears to be mainly addressing the hate issue with regard to sexual orientation and identity, it needs applying more widely than that so that it encompasses equality for(and kindness towards) all including, in this case, those with disability or disfigurement. I have my prejudices, as far I can tell everyone does[!], however I self edit all the time and try, not always successfully, to be aware of when my prejudice is over-riding my humanity. It may be trite but the world would be a better place if it were a standard we all strived for :- **treat others as you would like to be treated**. I would like this to be just as true for journalists/bloggers as it is for the rest of us. Please don’t sacrifice empathy and humanity at the altar of pursuing an agenda however valid the agenda. I guess, in a nutshell – first and foremost please BE KIND.

    *British spelling

      1. I have trouble to believe the urban myth of caverject on porn sets. It is the equivalent of fluffers. You might as well make the claim that “straight” porn stars have to get high before scenes.

        You do what you love, most people enjoy sex. Fucking an ass, is the same regardless of gender. So let us establish that.

        I do think, however, those men who cannot keep it up during shoots would traditionally be laughed off set. Or have short shelf life in porn. OR those that bottom. Rocco, is perfect in this example. I do think he is legitimately straight—that is why he bottomed most of the time and his dick was soft. Even with the shoots where he topped, he was semi-soft, marshmallow peen. He wasn’t into it at all.

        1. I’m afraid it isn’t an “urban myth”. I can think of a few cases within the last several years where performers had to go to emergency room because they used it and then their erections couldn’t go down.

          I remember a pretty well liked, often covered here, “intellectual” porn star who wrote a detailed essay about a trip to South Florida that he took to shoot with two gay4payers where they injected their dicks to do the scene. One of them really surprised me because although alot of people seem to love him for his huge cock, he never seems to actually get very hard.

          While they aren’t as widely used as ED drugs in pill form, injectibles are used.

          1. Most recent to use them that some bloggers focused on was Hunter Vance. He actually explained it to a few of us on RB cam. Both Tate Ryder and Hunter used injections in their scene. It took Tate almost 10 hours for his erection to finally go down. Hunter waited a couple more hours than that until he finally went to the emergency room and had it drained.

            I love the guy he’s handsome and is not shy about telling us the ins and outs of the industry. Also, he says he uses the injections almost every time because it is so much easier for him to maintain an erection that way. Oh, and he is gay, not straight.

          2. The price of caverject is around fifty dollars! :D OMG. I guess it would make sense then. I thought you had to get a prescription for that!?! I guess a trip to mexico could change that! lol.

  21. IMHO it only gives a critic more credibility when he gives praise and has a few complaints here and there. A poster or critic who posts just praises for a certain topic sounds like a shill and someone who just posts negative messages about a topic comes off as someone like he has an ax to grind.

    Manwin should know better than to get into The Sword’s business. Though I wouldn’t be surprised to read that Manwin claims that this email doesn’t reflect the company’s opinion and the employee acted on his own.

  22. You will no doubt continue to be an asshole as this is your nature and what you make money out of, but he’s spot on when he says you’ve become the Perez Hilton of porn.

    Just as mean and agressive, always seemingly thinking you are funny when it hasn’t occurred in months…
    You don’t have as much fat to lose or hair to stop dying so I wonder if you will ever find any way to redeem yourself…
    Probably not.

    More and more I see this blog turning into this tragic gallery of people with Paint “cum” on their face and stupid tired annotations written by a middle-aged troll who lost his wit ages ago.

  23. Zach is saying what a lot of guys are thinking. The whole Rocco Reed debacle has been a mess from start to finish. Just plain insulting. At least I had one thing in common with Rocco when watching his scenes, a limp dick.

  24. Is Zach a bit nasty sometimes? Yeah, but that’s why I read TheSword tbh.
    Maybe he was a bit horrible to Rocco, but Rocco really, really, REALLY needed to go.
    Zach’s articles aren’t always nice, but they’re pretty much the only thing that ever makes me go to Men.com

  25. At the end of the day, Zach shouldn’t censor himself for the sake of Chad & co. The only respectable reason to ease off on certain performers would be if he was concerned for the feelings of those targeted.

    From what I’ve seen, it tends to get nasty when said performer is perceived as somewhat homophobic, or in some manner disrespectful towards their gay audience; e.g. Rocco’s need to clarify that he was ‘never gay’ in his retirement announcement… but even then, such instances are a matter of interpretation. Can we assume he’s an asshole? Cuz if he is, he deserves everything he gets.

    But do we really know enough to discount the possibility that he’s a decent human being? I don’t think we do, so I sympathise with the bloke. This guy took Castro’s dick for fuck’s sake! I couldn’t do that, and I identify as gay! I say the guy’s a trooper!

    My idea of disrespectful is FAKING gay sex on camera and selling it as hardcore. Now THAT is a slap in the face, and at the top of a long list of things I despise about He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.

  26. While Rocco Reed would never have won a award for best performer. At least he wasn’t afraid to take some big cocks on and up his ass and for that I will give credit where credit is due. Castro with his 13 inches(one of the biggest dicks in porn today) now there is a big dick most of you would run in terror from. Yet he took it on and not just a few inches of it either. Since most of you G4P haters out there base your ideals on that fantasy that any man gay or straight in gay porn should take it up the ass like a man, you could at least give him some points for effort. Yes, I went there! Taking a 13 inch dick up the ass takes effort does it not? I can just hear the excuses coming: “Any body can take 13 inches!” “Anybody can get gang banged by 4 big dicks”, blah blah blah. He didn’t do to bad at sucking some big dicks either for a straight or bi guy. I don’t think we truly got the definite answer on to what his true sexuality was with different answers coming from and depending on which blog you visited. I personally don’t believe in strong arming media to report only favorable stories so stick to your guns The Sword.

  27. It’s obvious that this guy (Chad Jeffery) doesn’t know the meaning of words such “democracy”, “freedom of speech” and “opinion”.
    Rocco Reed is a bad performer and it’s not Zach’s fault ! And why should he (Zach) “censure” himself and only write about performers he likes ? That would be mean and boring too ! I like this blog the way it is :(

  28. Rocco Reed was boring as a straight performer, like Johnny Castle is. You knew his “gay” stuff would be barely endurable.

  29. Been following this blog for close to 6 years, and yes, you are indeed much meaner than it’s previous editors/contributors.
    Fortunately, there are pictures of naked men.

  30. Zach, you do not strike me as the type to have your freedom of speech abrogated by a mere threat—Fuck em’–And anyone else who doesnt like your blog, tell em to go elsewhere…

  31. Zach,

    Actually I agree with Chad – You do have a great sense of humor, tons of creativity, and write beautifully. However, you do, in my opinion, occasionally cross the line and turn decent people that are trying to make a living into laughing stocks (Girth Brooks, Paddy O, and Rocco, are excellent examples). I understand their performances may not appeal to you and respect your right to express your opinion however, when you move beyond objective criticism and present what appear to be personal attacks masked as criticism, I think you cheapen both yourself and your brand.

    For the most part I enjoy your coverage and you strike a perfect, light hearted tone and honestly don’t believe you are intending to be unkind.

    1. I agree that Zach can be a bit harsh sometimes, but I always felt that he doesn’t necessarily mean 100% of it. I always felt that he uses models such as the 3 you mentioned as a greater purpose to focus on the lack of quality in gay porn these days.

      But there’s a difference between Zach and Perez Hilton. Perez never had any good reason to give any personal attacks on JA other than maybe attack her movie career. Zach however does it in relationship to the industry he directly works for. Zach please continue to do what you do best!

    2. “Personal attack”? Please show me an example of something I’ve said that you consider to be a personal attack. I’m honestly curious.

      And as far as making a laughing stock out of people…thank you. I like making people laugh. It’s not easy!

      1. i guess my thing is, why waste time writing about Paddy and Rocco if you hate them so much. seems like such a waste of time.
        so Zach, WHY DO YOU WRITE ABOUT THEM IF YOU HATE THEM?

        and also, it’s not like you don’t praise other performers who have been limp dicked in their scenes every now and than. i mean you nominated JD Phoenix for best ass… and he has a pretty flat ass once he stands up, his ass only looks good in posed pictures.

    3. All three deserve what they get. Zach has never personally attacked them he has only criticized their work. If Manwin is this thin skinned maybe they should concentrate on making better porn than the lousy crap they keep putting out. Try having their models show some emotions, be more versatile, and how about some hard cocks. Stop letting your models give half-assed performances and bloggers/commenters wouldn’t ridicule them. Until then…fuck them.

    4. It’s the style of the blog. Zach posts entries on some porn stars which are on the limit of a restrictive orders, and others that are catty. He plays with the extremes, in both directions. Let’s not whine for everything!

  32. I did think you were being too mean on Rocco Reed, he’s just a performer making a buck. As far as Manwin, fuck ’em. “I would like to be your Jennifer Aniston.” Bitch, please!

    I love you so much for not only posting the letter, but posting all the dirt on Manwin and the owner. Haha!

  33. The tone of that letter actually seems really sincere and respectful .The tone of your writing is very often cruel, mean , and bitter. You do pretty much read as a bully.

  34. This is just sad how these people are acting. It’s nothing more than cheap blackmail of a sort. Our entire country is founded upon the freedom to express ourselves however we would like to do that. We have the right to discuss ideas and form free opinions on those unless they are of a seditious nature (trust me, I don’t think talking about a porn studio is anything related to revolution).

    This makes no sense. When movie critics give bad reviews, do the studios say “HEY! If you say something bad about us everytime then we’re not gonna let you come to any movies!” It might happen now and then but more often than not, companies are resepectful of other’s ideas (good and bad). It would truly be a great world if all we said was positive uplifting things to everybody we saw but that’s not the world we live in. I think the porn company making this type of fuss over this is a bit heavy-handed . It’s too bad that the porn company in question doesn’t remember who pays THEIR salaries to get them to be where they are today. It’s the people..in case you forgot. If you want to censor our opinions then perhaps you have our country confused with China or Russia maybe?

  35. Oh I know it’s related, but why use Jennifer Aniston’s face to cover Rocco’s now-gaping hole? lol

    You should have put Angelina Jolie’s face on there. Or better yet, Fabian Thylmann’s.

    And yes Manwin clearly doesn’t know how much positive things you have said about their site, especially to the point that at one point so many people complained like crazy that you were praising them too much.

    And kick him when he’s down? What is he down about? He is voluntarily leaving on his own right due to no incidences, and he wasn’t forced out of the industry. He isn’t suffering from anything, not even a substance abuse. So what is Rocco Reed “down” about?

  36. i think you should just not pick on certain porn stars so much.
    it’s fine if you have you’re favorites, and you don’t have to like everybody.
    but to single one or three out, post stories about them JUST so you can say nasty things about them.
    that gets just mean for no reason.

    i don’t agree with the way you picked on rocco reed (and paddy o’brian, i mean you pick on HIM because of his accent.)
    but i do think it’s kind of silly for them to try to enforce you to be nice.
    at the end of the day this is YOUR thing. but if he wants to pull stuff from you because he doesn’t like what you say, that’s HIS thing.

    anyhoo.

  37. Men.com is just like the show Glee in that you have to endure shit episode after shit episode until you finally get to a gem/an actual hot scene. And by then you just want to cancel your membership. If they can’t come out with better material, I am going to close my affiliate account!

  38. Fuck Manwin, they own tube sites that destroy competition by forcing sites to sale to the conglomerate Manwin.

    And for good measure, fuck NDS and Cody Cummings too.

    1. Say what you will, but NDS and Cody take criticism, praise, jokes, and everything else usually without any problem or incident and would never be so full of themselves to do something like this.

      1. Sigh.

        Zach 1, Lolz 0

        /:(a

        Meh.

        Well, Rocco did take it in the pooper. And by a gang of giant black cocks.

        So, Cody needs to up his game. As a “bisexual” this is pathetic for a one-note performer like Cody, that a “hetero” such as Rocco did bottom within the first few scenes he was active in gay porn. And Cody for the last couple of (um, five or ten?-Gurrrl, you are getting old!), years hasn’t. It does allow viewers to debate who is the professional and who is not. Also, NDS is run by a French Canadian and his minions. And everybody knows that French Canadians are the spawn of Satan. /:D

        1. I do think that in this Men.com debacle, that it was simply a business venture for both the company and Rocco, where each got what they needed. Rocco needed a bunch a cash fast since he was leaving porn(something that Straight porn, would take months) and Men.com wanted an increase in memberships. I have my suspicions why Rocco is leaving. So I’m hoping because of this omitted detail, that certain bloggers have compassion to let the guy live his life in obscurity and be allowed to be forgotten.

          At least men.com don’t make anything about it. Unlike NDS which tries to obscure some glaring problems with their content. They hire “straight” or “bisexual” talent and base monetary incentives for just being in porn, rather than paying higher for doing certain sex acts. I mean they should have started smaller for Cody, before starting him as a site, and incrementally offer incentives to bottom. Not offer “straight” scenes, for those men to work at NDS. I can tell you at least half of that talent would have bottomed given the right motivation. And the other half ALREADY does in their private life. Production is too lazy to do anything about it.

          In the end, it is very interesting to note how much your annoyance for Rocco matches the Cody Cummings haters. Why don’t you turn on that skewering for Cody, especially now that Rocco is gone out of porn forever? I mean, it is a win-win situation. Of course, that possibly would leave you with the problem that NDS will threaten you for defamatory and mean content. :D
