Straight For Pay

A new emerging practice, poised to shake the foundation of gay porn as we know it.

By Vania Blows

Everyone knows about the “GayForPay” phenomenon, it’s been around for quite some time now, but what is it? It's a new emerging practice, poised to shake the foundation of Gay Porn as we know it, called “Straight for Pay”? Now, for a girl like me, who does like her gay porn, but, admittedly, sometimes wishes that the guys in it were as into the pu-tang as they were into dicks, I had to ask myself, “Is it Christmas already?”

No, Santa didn’t get my list early this year, it’s just a big misunderstanding, of sorts.

Chi Chi Larue’s latest bi-sexual offering called “Shifting Gears: A bisexual Transmission” caused quite an uproar on gay porn blogs all over the Internet. Reactions ran the gamut from “I’ll never watch Blake Riley again” to “What’s the Big Deal?”

For the record, Chi Chi Larue did not coin the term “Straight for Pay”. That expression was used on one of the gay porn blogs that talked about the movie, and from there a firestorm ensued.

She did, however, issue a press release to announce the new movie, saying “James Cameron and Blake Riley Go Straight”. When asked about the release, Chi Chi said, “It’s a play on words, and its PORN people, get over it!”

Chi Chi is not out to create a whole new subgenre, hiring gay men to sleep with women exclusively and marketing it as such. She hires willing models to perform roles, and in the bisexual movies, it just so happens that sometimes they have sex with the opposite sex, but it can hardly be termed “Straight” when the guys fucking girls also have a dick up their ass, now can it? “I didn’t force anyone to do anything against their will, they wanted to do it, and Blake Riley for one had a great time!” explained Chi Chi when asked about the making of the movie.

And these guys aren’t even the first gay models to do “straight” scenes. Some people may remember Blake Harper’s Bi-Sexual scene in the classic “Goosed 3” movie. I certainly remember it fondly! It didn’t unleash an entire new industry of Straight for Pay models. I highly doubt that Blake was forced to do it, and he looked pretty damn into to me! Did that make him any less gay? I haven’t heard about him shacking up with any women because he explored his sexuality on film.

I asked Chi Chi if she had any idea that people would react so strongly to this movie. “We’ve done quite a few Bi movies and we’ve never had this kind of a reaction before”.

For all the uproar it caused, we must remember that people want bisexual movies or studios would not make them. Surprisingly, Chi Chi tells me that the market for bisexual porn is “mostly gay men, some women, bi-sexual men and some bi-curious guys. Straight guys that are curious, but would never normally rent or buy gay porn, feel more comfortable exploring their curiosity as long as there’s a woman on the cover.”

Chi Chi feels that the world is “…innately bisexual. I think about all those super straight guys that look at sports stars with such admiration. If some really hot star football player said ‘Would you suck my dick?’ I think that they would!”

Though perplexed by the negative reactions of some, she’s not concerned that fans will turn against the models. Chi Chi explains, “Those guys that said all that stuff will probably be the first ones to buy the movies. When they see it, they won’t be able to deny that the sex is really, really hot. It’s all about exploring sexuality and if people want to get fisted, beaten, play at water sports, they can do it. Why, then, is fucking a pussy gross? Women aren’t gross, a pussy is not gross – if it just happens to be that you don’t fancy it, that’s fine, but it doesn’t mean there aren’t people out there who do and no one’s forcing you to watch it”.

Chi Chi produces bi-exual movies every few years, and has no intention of stopping. For every person who criticizes her, there are then more who love her movies and support the studio. “People will always dog me, that’s just what happens when you’re at the top of your industry.”.

Well said, and thanks Chi Chi, my pussy and I appreciate the support.
