Ricky Larkin Discusses The Problem with ‘Gay for Pay’

Gay For Pay is definitely one of the most debated topics in gay porn. You don’t have to go far, you can read about it here in the comment section of this blog any given day.

Porn star Ricky Larkin is now working behind the scenes at ROCK CANDY FILMS and I’m still waiting to see his bottoming debut. In case you missed it, here’s my exclusive photo set of Ricky’s bottoming debut, Rick Larking gets fucked by Dylan Roberts.

Ricky recently published an article The Problem with ‘Gay for Pay’ where he discusses this infamous topic.

Fans and bloggers often seem personally betrayed when they learn that a popular gay porn star is dating a woman off-camera. Their logic tells them that a man can’t possibly be sexually attracted to his own gender if he’s dating the opposite sex “in real life.” Such narrow-minded “thinking” fails to recognize the many variations of sexual attraction and expression.

Despite how far we’ve come in the fight for sexual equality, we’ve yet to acknowledge that there are many shades of lust, and many degrees of sexual attraction that can fluctuate throughout our lives.

What about the performer who identifies as “gay” but isn’t the least bit attracted to (or is even completely turned off by) his scene partner? He goes through the motions anyway and collects his check, never experiencing a second of pleasure during the scene. Is he a more authentic performer than the man who truly enjoys having sex with his male costar but is dating a woman in real life?

What about the big, muscular, hairy guy who’s hired to play an aggressive, dominant top, even though he’s a submissive bottom in real life? If he “fakes” his way through the scene, should he be crucified on blogs for “cheating the gay porn audience” and “stealing their money”?
