Anyone have any guesses as to why straight guys are so friggin' interested in seeing this guy cum on women?
Perhaps it's an evolutionary thing (my belief leans this direction), leading males to enjoy seeing cum on a woman because that tendency leads to passing on our genes...

I've always wondered about this, too. An observation is that the fuck scenes in both gay and straight porn usually end in exactly the same way-- with a big dick being masturbated by hand until it creams OUTSIDE someone.
At one time, I thought it was because the ability to powerfully shoot a big load was a sign of male virility, which is really what porn is about. Obviously, you can't see this if the load is shot inside. (Although some gay "bareback" videos like to show how much cum dribbles out of the ass after the load is shot inside.) But then I noticed that a lot of porn stars aren't good shooters, but just drip and dribble. Yet, the camera always gives us a good view of this weak load, so I guess the reason must be something else.
I don't think wanting to see the cum outside has anything to do with passing on genes. On an intellectual level, we all know it has to be inside for this to happen. But from even a gut instinctual level, there is an urge to put the cum inside. After all, if primitive man had an urge to pull out and cum outside, chances are the species would have died out.
As a gay man, where pregnancy and passing of genes is obviously impossible, even I have a strong urge to cum inside. (Given that I usually can't cum with a condom, which isn't the same anyway, and given the realities of safe sex today, this rarely gets to happen.) Some of the guys I fuck appear to feel the same way. Once in a while, after I've worn the bottom out and am stroking myself to blow my load, I've had him sense that I'm about to cum, jump up and sit down hard on my cock, taking me to the hilt in his sore hole, to receive my load inside of him. This is risky behavior, not to be condoned, yet in the heat of the moment, the desire to leave/receive cum inside overcomes rational thinking. Clearly, on a primitive level, I want the bottom to walk away from sex with part of me still inside him, and he wants the same.
Of course, this usually doesn't happen, as I try to practice safe sex. But given the choice between spewing my load on the bedsheets, and hosing down my partner with it, I'll take the latter choice. It's not the same as leaving it inside, but a good second.
However, I think in porn there is something else going on. If leaving the load inside is an instinctual first choice, they would show this. The problem is that there is then no way to prove that the sex was real, that the guy actually came. I think in order to distinguish hardcore porn from soft stuff, the directors believe it is important to show the cum shot. As I said, in some gay bareback videos, they do cum inside, but in this case that adds an extra erotic factor, because of the taboo of bareback sex. However, afterward, they always demonstrate that a good load was shot, such as by showing the load dribbling back out of the hole. I do remember one straight porn film where the man always did cum inside the woman. But in this case, the woman, who had paid to be bound and fucked, demanded to know how she could be sure that the guy actually came in her. "Not to worry," he said. "We always verify orgasm," upon which his assistant used the palm of her hand to capture this big puddle of cum that dribbled out of the woman's twat as the guy pulled out, and then brought it around for the woman to lick up, with the requisite close-up shots.
So, I think a big part of the external cum shots on camera is to show that the sex was real, that the guy actually did cum, and did receive pleasure and gratifiaction. But to do this alone, it wouldn't be necessary to cum all over the partner. Indeed, some fetish porn shows the cum shooting all over someting else, some fetish item. But most show the cum splattered all over the fuckee. And, when you consider things like Bukkake, it's obvious that the more the better. I think this has to do with an aspect of submission or degradation, showing the fucker to be dominant over the fuckee.
The same aspect of cumming externally also appears in sexual fantasy, for example the fantasy letters published by porn magazines. I'm not sure if this is a case of men imitating what they see in porn, or of porn showing what men really fantacize about. But often such "literature" contains something along the lines of "As I felt my muscles tense up, I pulled my ten inches out of her throat, took my thick meat in my hand, and blasted at least a quart of cum all over that pretty face." What I read into this is dominance over, and degradation of, the woman.
