Brian Tyler Cohen, Actor & Liberal Youtuber

Brian occasionally mentions that he grew up in New Jersey and was affected by the 9/11 tragedy while in high school. Out of curiosity… where specifically is Brian from?

Not sure on specifics, but I’m pretty sure he grew up on the east coast and is currently in LA

Did you know him personally? What was he like in those days? I hope he was nice lol
Yes I did know him personally, but haven’t seen him in years. TBH when I first met him I thought he was a complete douche and I didn’t feel particularly safe around him and his crowd (as a gay man). But over time he won me over. He’s very full of himself which can be off putting, but he’s very personable and I think his heart is in the right place. After he moved to LA it became clear that he’s an ally. He lived with Jonathan Bennett from mean girls for years.

I am curious to know more about what he was like in his youth and how his journey brought him to where he is now.

More importantly, did you see his dick in the locker room or the showers? ;-)
 
As someone who's lived in LA for two decades, may I point out for those who don't actually KNOW L.A., that the Sunset Strip (probably the STRAIGHTEST part of LA nightlife) is ALSO in West Hollywood. It's not just Santa Monica Blvd. Which, by the way, is a VERY long street, with barely a tiny stretch of it being the gay part. Also, not to beat the horse to death, but most intelligent/educated non-Tourist straight guys in L.A. with ANY connection to the entertainment industry, proudly have MANY gay male friends that they're not secretly bonking or fantasizing about. Also, in truth, the old "gay or European" joke could be accurately reworked to "gay or LA". You can't survive in LA if you don't subscribe to the "always be camera ready fit and pretty" lifestyle. They'll eat you ALIVE for an extra 1% bodyfat or for not being perfectly groomed. So most LA-based straight men with any intentions of being in front of a camera will look, to the outside world, like a typical gay muscle boy. After living there for any length of time, most also lose their macho sounding straight edged way of speaking as well, and start to "sound" sort of gay (or maybe it's because of all the pot they smoke daily out there, which also has the effect making regular stoners sound "sort of gay").

Oh, and one last point. Most straight guys of that type in LA don't much care if you fantasize about them or think they're gay. They know they're hot. They know they're top of the food chain. They know the gay exec's in the industry will do anything to drool over them and have them in their films, shows and at their parties. It's money in their pockets. For some, if the one drooling is powerful enough, it could also mean letting their dick be sucked. But that's a VERY VERY small percentage of the REALLY dumb ones. I mean SUPER dumb, because it leads to nothing. Most never have to resort to that. As a matter of fact, they have MUCH more power over the straight exec droolers if they NEVER pull their dick's out for them. Once they do, their numbers are immediately deleted. And any of them with half a brain know that. And they're glad for it, because they have no more interest in a cock, than most of you have in a vagina. I don't know Brian personally, but I've known hundreds like him. And I'd bet a small fortune that none of the signs you all think you see, lead to anything close to being closeted or living a secret gay life. It's something we gay boys in Hollywood have to realise VERY quickly. Because we all have our stories of THINKING a hottie like Brian is showing signs that could mean something romantic/sexual is possible; of thinking their sweetness and kindness and "gay vibes" means there's something there. 99.9999% of the time there's not. And it sucks realizing your crush will never feel the same way, or EVER act on it. That's the reality, folks. Enjoy your fantasies, cause that's all they are.

Thank you for the context.
