Bruce LaBruce – Canadian filmmaker, photographer and underground adult director. His films explore themes of sexual and interpersonal transgression against cultural norms, frequently blending the artistic and production techniques of independent film with gay pornography. [20] With that being said, let’s jump into the conversation, we hope you enjoy this episode of Consider Before Consuming. Sexual assault and financial desperation were the catalysts that jumpstarted Aaron Crowley’s career in the porn industry. While in porn, he believed lies about his value as a person, false stereotypes about his sexuality as a gay man, and he was closed off to the possibility of experiencing real love for himself. Scott "Spunk" O'Hara [117] – a gay American pornographic performer, poet, editor/publisher of the quarterly men's journal Steam, and author. He wrote Rarely pure and never simple: selected essays of Scott O'Hara, [118] Autopornography: a memoir of life in the lust lane, [119] SeXplorers: the guide to doing it on the road, [120] and Do-it-yourself piston polishing (for non-mechanics).

In mainstream media, porn has a glamorized reputation as a tool of empowerment, sexual liberation, and self-discovery. However, when you take a moment to look behind the curtain and hear the real experiences of porn performers, you get a very different picture—one of abuse, manipulation, drug addiction, and physical and mental trauma. Jamie Gillis – actor in over 470 pornographic films, mostly straight; has been inducted into AVN Hall of Fame, [47] and XRCO Hall of Fame. [48] Aaron Crowley: Right. Yeah. You, um, you just hit the nail on the head. Like I said, I, we, we, as LGBT+ people, we aren’t often taught about our sexual orientations, our gender identities, but we still have to learn, you know, healthy sexuality. And unfortunately so many in my community, um, do go to pornography to learn about our sexuality and our gender identities. And you know, that’s why the porn industry often poses as an ally for us. Yeah. But whenever you dig into it and you’re watching it, especially being on this side of it, I can see now just how homophobic all the material, all the content that the porn industry produced was like, it’s so violent and, and degrading and you know, you know, I, to hear from, you know, our, the crowds that you and I are probably familiar with, uh, about, you know, straight porn? Kernes, Mark (November 1, 2017). "Italian Math Professor Outed As Former Gay Porn Star". GayVN . Retrieved April 22, 2020.Aaron Crowley: And, and that’s kind of, you know, in going in and processing the years later and processing all that trauma, that’s, you know, how I’ve realized, you know, what, I’m gonna speak out on this, um, because I need this mentality to be destroyed. You know, I actually even just recently, like the, that mentality that caused me to normalize my rape so prevalent even still today, and a part of me is like, probably because of pornography, pornography has normalized this idea of, you know, people can be obligated to have to have sex with someone. Raging Stallion Sweeps the GAYVN Awards: 'To the Last Man' takes 13 trophies Harker Jones, March 28, 2009, Adult Video News. Aaron Crowley: Um, and rent and all of that. Um, so it seemed like a nice, it seemed like a good option. Yeah. It seemed like. Yeah. So I took him up on that offer. And um, yeah. Christopher Zeischegg, How a Former Porn Star's Sex Tape Helped Him Reclaim His Sex Life, Nerve.com, April 2, 2014 Garrett Jonsson: And he was sexually assaulted and it negatively impacted him. And yeah, it just speaks to that, that if you’re a man, you can’t be sexually assaulted, you can’t be, you can’t experience rape, but that’s just, you know, it’s not true.

Garrett Jonsson: That’s cool. That’s really cool. Yeah. This is also a personal question and you don’t have to speak to it if you don’t want to, but I think it’s a pretty big deal. Like at what point did you understand that you are gay? Garrett Jonsson: Yeah. That’s, that’s really interesting. Like you were not a safe space. That’s really interesting. I it’s almost like you were, and I’m not blaming you when I say this, but I’m just making an observation. It’s almost like you were participating in victim blaming because you just didn’t understand. It’s not that you were truly like blaming yourself. It’s just that you didn’t understand the context of all these things. Aaron Crowley: Um, but there was a period in my teenage years as I was, you know, coming out to myself and figuring things out and realizing things.
