Our GayVN Weekend Hustler Guide

IN-VdayEscortRoundupTH.jpg

Conventional wisdom says that porn stars are a dime a dozen. We wish!  With a falling dollar, just about the only people who can afford a porn star’s companionship these days are in Dubai… and G-d knows they don’t have gay sex there. Of course, we’re in San Francisco and with the GayVNs falling on Valentine’s Day weekend this year-and with your tireless Sword editors pressed for time and romance, we thought we’d stop staring at the menu and, uh, order in. Why should straight guys have all the fun? The Sword takes a look at who’s in town

Dark Alley’s ‘8 1/2’ Taken Off GayVN Award Noms List at the Zero-th Hour

IN-darkalleynix.jpg

It’s difficult enough for us to fathom how members of the Academy sit through all of the bloated, three-hour Hollywood period-dramas that make up the list of nominees for the Oscars, so it’s not surprising that GayVN voters weren’t keen on watching every scene of every porno up for consideration at this year’s GayVN Awards. With movies like GRUNTS clocking in at six discs of material, how were the powers-that-be supposed to know that Dark Alley Media’s 8 1/2 contained a few moments of supposed barebacking content when their DVD players were set permanently on fast-forward? We first heard the story when Fleshbot reported yesterday that the studio, infamous for raising the bar on shock value with films about Jesus Christ’s crucifixion and Guantanamo Bay, had its scenes nominated from 8 1/2 (inches, in a nod to Fellini) inconspicuously removed from the nominations list on GayVN.com, and J.C. Adams confirmed the disqualification yesterday afternoon.

 

Queens, Unicorns, and Marilyn Manson: This Magical Week in Gay Photos

GC-phototop.jpg Oh, what a gay week it was! In between fashion week parties, Marc Jacobs’ assorted scandals, and Cher‘s diva meltdowns during Grammy practice, there were actually some photos taken that we feel emerged at the top of the big, flaming, online-media heap. From mesh-covered Manson fans to John Mayer in a major one-sy, we chose ten faggy photos that will be burned into our retinas for longer than we care to think about. After the jump, see who made the top ten on our gaydar for the unbearable workweek of February 4th through 8th!

40% of Gay Men Dumb Enough to Trust Sex Partners

HN-SwissHIVStudyTH.jpg

In a study that was brought to our attention by the UK Gay Times, it seems that 40% of gay men who claim to “know” their sex partner’s HIV status were in fact using a sophisticated detection system known as drunken guesswork.  The Times also asserts that “around a third” of gay men do not know their own HIV status, which is all the more reason never to trust anyone’s craigslist post that says “HIV- UB2,” let alone your own instincts after 8 margaritas and a Miller Lite.

Factory Videos Abandons Fake Vagina Mart

IN-AEEFactoryTH.jpg

We’ve always found the annual Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas a charming mix of perverts and penis-shaped lollipops. Where else can you see Jenna Jameson on a pedestal signing autographs, detachable penises on headless torsos and bald men fingering silicone vaginas with bad merkins? It’s always been a straight-heavy show, but in recent years the gay section has gone from ghetto to, well, practically gone. And Factory Videos owner Scott Morris fired back at AVN this week in an open letter to the industry, claiming that

Rhodes, Jacobs, Preston: Three’s Company Too!

CS-JacobsRhodesPrestonThrupTH.jpg

Designer Marc Jacobs will be unveiling more than his Fall 2008 collection on Friday-according to a source close to porn star Erik Rhodes, it’ll also be the debut of his new polyamorous relationship with Rhodes and fellow porn star Jason Preston. “This Friday will be their first outing together,” the source tells The Sword. “They’re going to take it public at the show.”
It looks like Michael Lucas isn’t the only porn star commanding real estate on Page Six these days…

Marc Jacobs and Erik Rhodes Wrestle For Bottom

CS-Marc-ErikTH.jpg

Barely a month after his tumultuous split from Road Rules alum Danny Dias, Erik Rhodes is off the market, having been snapped up by none other than Marc Jacobs, and ratcheting the designer’s mid-life crisis to code red. The source this time isn’t Rhodes’ blog but gossip ground-zero Page Six (it’s sort of like the old-fashioned version of Perez Hilton for all you young’uns out there). Like Perez, Page Six’s reporting is just as sloppy… they pull a quote from Rhodes’ “ManNet.com” profile (Uh, we think you guys mean ManHUNT.net.)

Rhodes responded to the story in an uncharacteristically brief post on his blog yesterday.

Is The Advocate Getting Dangerously Thin?

GC-AdvocateTH.jpgNick Denton, Gawker Media founder and current Managing Editor of Gawker.com, yesterday dissed friend Aaron Hicklin’s decision to leave his job at the arguably more relevant Out in order to become Editorial Director for Planet Out Magazines–a job which Denton assumes will include the shutting down of The Advocate.  The nation’s first ever magazine for homophiles saw us through Stonewall and disco and AIDS and Will & Grace–maybe it’s outlived its relevance? 

The Sword Guide to Fucking Like A Pornstar

OP-SwordGuideFuckingPornStarPBhp.jpg If conventional wisdom were true, and porn stars were all unrestrained, sex-addicted animals, they’d have fucked you already. Not so fast, whore-monger. We sat down with five stars to talk about what gets them hard, who wins their heart and what the challenges of finding romance as a public sex figure.

“I look at your face. I look at your ass. If those two things look good, I’m on you,” says Raging Stallion’s Jake Deckard.  Is this news to his boyfriend of ten years? Hardly. The detailed rules and regulations the two have established have keeps Jake sated and his boyfriend unwavering in his devotion. In the Lazy Susan-esque sexcapades of polyamory, everybody wins.

Not everyone is so traditional.

SF Gays Add Staph to Fats and Femmes

While other staph-afflicted urban centers like Boston and New York are frantically posting public service announcements about the disease on Craigslist, men in San Francisco have a different agenda, using “staph-free” and “No staph” as a way to get laid. A quick search of Craigslist M4M in Boston, New York and Los Angeles turns up nothing but well-meaning alerts about the new MRSA strain that’s been spreading among gay men. Even seemingly sexy enticements (“Hot Sex in Chelsea — 25”) turn out to be warnings in disguise.

Land of the Condom-Free: Home of the Very Very Brave

westonbbdvd.jpg

Re-igniting the debate about bareback porn versus safe-sex porn, former COLT Man Josh Weston has made a strange late-career choice to enter the world of cum-dumping for the cameras by filming for SX Video. His covergirl debut in Bodybuilders Bareback has some of the industry shaking their heads in disappointment, while others celebrate, leave fervent and sometimes soulless comments on porn blogs (“I refuse to sacrifice my porn to the propagandists who insist we have
to ‘set a good example’ for people,” fumes one devotee),

New York Unveils New Youth Fad: AIDS!

HN-YoungMenAIDSthumb.jpg

Anyone who’s tried hooking up on Manhunt or Craigslist in the last decade, has encountered a mystery: How can so many young people bareback without contracting HIV? Thanks to a new report, we now know the answer: they can’t! They get AIDS just like everyone else!

Toyota Threatens Studio Over “Lexus”

IN-ToyotaLexus.jpg

The Toyota
Motor Corp is suing bareback porn company Eboys Studios over a (Swiss?) star’s use of
the trademarked name of luxury car brand Lexus. Eboys has not-so-cleverly
responded that said star based the name on the Greek god Lexus who,
inconveniently for them
does not exist.  Oddly, and apropos of nothing, according to Jonathan Mahler’s The Lexus Story, one of the inspirations…

Zac Efron Not Gay Yet, But Close

ZacTHUMB.jpg Oh, Zac. Don’t be coy. We know there’s something you’re dying to come out and say – at least as soon as the current hype dies down and you’ve already done the rehab thing and maybe packed on a couple pounds and your agent’s desperate for a new angle. Is it such a stretch to suggest that someone starring in a High School Musical (or 2) could be a little, uh, bohemian?

After the jump, we molest a red carpet photo in search of evidence.

Cal/OSHA Inspects Naughty America for Safety Violations

calosha07THUMBFL2.jpgNews that Cal/OSHA, the government agency which monitors and enforces workplace safety and health, had been snooping around a Naughty America shoot sent ripples through the porn industry this week, sending gay porn producers in particular into a frenzy.
