Men.com Model On Production Shut-Down: “Someone Fucked It Up For Us Clean People”

Those five syphilis cases in straight porn have now led to a moratorium on production in both straight and gay porn (gay porn studios affected include Kink.com and Men.com, both of which are straight-owned) and one male gay porn performer is speaking out about the shut down.

The gay-for-pay performer (who asked not to be identified) was scheduled to shoot with Men.com this week and tells The Sword:

Men.com called me and told me everything is put on hold. I asked why, and they told my to read the article on AVN! I did, and well, [someone] fucked it up for us clean people. It drives me crazy how irresponsible people can be. And, of course it had to come from the straight side of porn.

The performer is uncertain when or if his shoot will be rescheduled.

We will all know Wednesday. Not to mention I had to pay for my own test, which you have to take twice a month if you shoot a lot.

Men.com, which just this month began requiring testing for all of its models, has not returned repeated requests for comment.

  1. DAMN, so thats why MEN hasn’t been putting out scenes recently. I was wondering why things were so slow in the porn world.

  2. Men.com has been around for a year now, and they are only now initiating testing of performers? Ok….the gay-ish businesses need to get over this whole “protecting privacy” bit when it comes to medical issues. If you are willing to be videotaped having a pool cue or a telephone handset shoved into your ass, you pretty much are relinquishing your zone of privacy. Syphilis does actually kill people, and if Men.com is allowing models to perform with syphilis, then they might be leaving themselves open to a legal pandora’s box…and they might want to let all of their performers know that faking STD test results is a crime in the state of California, so if any of them are doing it, then they might want to get a lawyer.

  3. Well at least they had the sense to shut down production to get a handle on the problem. Some studios use performers who are clearly not healthy and go on filming anyway.

  4. If you happened to have read that AVN interview Zach posted a couple of days ago, it blamed the comeback of syphillis on gay men. Fuckin’ Assholes, they think they are so safe because they are straight and we are so disease ridden. I’m glad this happened, let them all fall from their high horses. Yet, I think that somehow they are still going to find a way to blame this on gay men, even though it’s affecting straight performers. Just wait and see.

    1. The article and interview on AVN about the syphillis outbreak had nothing in it linking the outbreak to the gay side of the industry. As far as everyone knows, the outbreak is STRICTLY on the str8 side of the industry.

      1. It didn’t link the current outbreak to the gay side of the industry (yet), but it did blame the comeback of syphillis on gay men in general. I can’t help but think they are going to find a way to pin this on a gay guy somewhere along the lines, just wait and see.

  5. Isn’t Corbin Fisher “straight-owned”? They don’t seem to have these STD issues. What about Next Door Studios? Straight owned isn’t it? Seems like Men and Kink aren’t stringent enough or their “actors” are involved in risky extra-curricular activities.

  6. Ummm why is everyone appalled? Even gay owned studios are using performers who practice bareback sex, then go back to safe sex scenes and viceversa. Do studios think we don’t know the faces of the performers?

  7. This is why straight production companies should not be in the business of producing gay porn… they hire crossover talent, and fucked up g4p performers.

    1. Some of my favorite gay porn models are gay4pay guys. They totally commit to the performance and turn out smokin scenes.

  8. dear god…i didnt know men.com and kink.com were straight-owned. apparently I havent been reading Zach’s stories enough. :(

  9. From what I hear the male performer who fakes his syphillis tests is Mr Marcus. Not a cross over guy. Gay porn should be fine.
