not that i like the shit he's done, but why is Bi guy in quotes?
Because “bi guys” is something many queers fetishize or see as something superior. While some “bi guys” use it for sociological or ego clout or to deflect internalized phobias and gay resentments, especially in the sex work world. Blake is definitely someone who has constantly used “bi guy” as an excuse, as social leverage, as an ego booster, as a way to seem worthy of being worshipped by the twinks he surrounds himself with, as a way to deflect from his problematic stuff. (And this is coming from someone who’s inherently pan-sexual). Not all “bi guys” do this of course, but he definitely has. However, that’s just the tip of his toxic and problematic behaviors. He’s not much better than Bryan Singer. But because he’s young and conventionally attractive people just overlooked a lot of the obvious issues and the blatant narcissism.
I do frequently put “straight” and “gay” in quotations as well. These are all identities people choose to embrace or not embrace. Ultimately, everyone has their own sexualities, dimensions, experiences with fluidity or contradictions or questioning, struggles, motivations, psyches, insecurities, places in the gender, sexual, affection, romantic attachment, emotional investment, relationship comfort, commitment spectrum.
Folks do need to stop putting faith in their porn performers. Many, if not most, have a sea of issues even if they come off like level-headed “nice guys”. The amount of shock some of y’all show when they do scummy shit just hints towards naïveté.
