Hi friends at GBT. I wanted to post this because this member (I have redacted his name) is not the only one that feels this way. I feel very strongly about my answer to him. My answer was too long and rambling and maybe confusing, but it is what it is. I would welcome any comments or opposing views, especially in light of the fucked up world lately with ISIS and White Supremacists. I could be way off base in declaring these films harmless. At the bottom is a short clip which is typical from these group of films. After the short one is the clip I think he is referring to. I am sorry in advance for the spelling and grammar issues. I had not even a minute this morning to proofread even for major errors.
------------ original message -----------------
The boys are ubercute but the scene is disturbing. I wonder if it is appropriate to post considering the violence rife in the United States. This clip will send the wrong message to viewers who are "ting-tong" (a thai colloquial expression meaning slightly crazy)
----------------------------------------------------
Response: This is prolly the first message I have ever answered here. Not because i am rude - actually I usually am over fixated in replying to all my emails and messages on social sites, even if it is just a one liner. I have a couple of hundred messages that I never knew existed until very recently (few weeks ago) because for some reason my Chrome browser did not show the messages. It said I have XXX messages but when I clicked on that there was nothing there. It was probably something I fucked up with my java settings. Then when I saw all the messages I felt bad for not responding so only actually read a few before just deciding to not even try catching up. I vowed to read current stuff.
I will probably reconsider that policy because I always feel like I should respond because I am a nice kid in general, but I don't have time really and when I did find a minute here I ended up getting carried away. ugggg I think I will try and figure out how to simply turn them OFF LOL
To start, I just wanted to say that I agree with you about societal issues as of late being horrific. However, I could not disagree more about "filtering" things for society sake. We are lucky to be in the US and our entire society was based on freedom of expression and speech. To me, and I know there are many who will disagree, a country that filters or stifles free art and expression is not really free.
Also, there is so much more violent and gory content in video games and movies, all available 24-7 to any child with an internet connection. There also has never been a single study that shows violent content leads to violent behavior.
The few times that it comes up is when a mass shooter is said to have played X video game around the clock. This defense gas NEVER, EVER been successful and the psychiatric community has always contended that these individuals had psychotic tendencies that were in place long before their crime.
Considering a billion people play video games or listen to extreme musicians without ever acting on it is proof that the violent entertainment has no effect on "normal" people. If you look at the entire population of mass murderers I think you will find that a large percentage had problems with their father or some other authority figure yet we don't blame shitty parenting because for every murderer that had daddy problems there are a couple of billion others that also had daddy problems but did not act on it.
Interestingly, I will bet a small percentage of violent offenders also hate pistachio mint ice cream. I apologize for the hyperbole but it illustrates that with every subset of people (killers, molesters, firemen, teachers, priests etc etc), there is going to be a percentage of them that hate pistachio ice cream.
Thus, there is a percentage of killers that watch horror films too. However, like the ice cream example, all this shows is that x-percent of every population subsets will have a weird quirk or tastes, but that is irrelevant to propensity to commit crime.
Lastly, I actually HATE horror films, however, these clips are sooooo fucking cheesy and poorly acted that i find them comedic. If these CAMPY films send any message at all, it is that we have a great sense of humor in the gay community, not that we are promoting violence.
You know, Digital video is free. i.e. unlike old 35mm films that cost a ton of money, there is none of that cost these days. What I am saying is this - Don't you agree that the producers and directors could EASILY have coached these guys to act better? Like "stop smiling, please don't move you are supposed to be dead, try not lo actually LOL etc" - OR - at least say TAKE TWO, try harder.
No, they did not do that because these films are not serious and not meant to be taken seriously. I think you are short changing American intelligence and the maturity of Gay Men by you taking it as serious as you are. This is satire and comedy on a level that may make you personally squirm. However, if we as gay men in the freest nation in the world find this content so offensive to the point that the parody, comedy and satire is missed, then I would argue that we are moving backward.
Gay marriage is a great step forward, but it appears we may actually be a community of judgmental and oppressive, immature people that probably don't deserve the new rights we have won if shit like this gets censored from communities like this. We would in reality be portraying the polar opposite mindset of the Utopian society we supposedly are in search of and always chasing.
I'll go ahead and be a drama queen here and say that if this content is considered to be "removable:, then I am fucking disgusted and ashamed.
In fact, I would be so outta here because the utter hypocrisy of all of this would infuriate me every time I logged in. I certainly know this would not even be noticed nor would anyone care. But a bell can never be unrung and I would no longer enjoy myself here. We all know there are hundreds of other sites and none of this content is exclusive. Most of it is reposts and anything new would eventually make it to ALL the sites, probably within an hour.
I hope I did not come off as an asshole here but I also know that I likely did. That's just me. A young homo with a huge mouth that can come off as abrasive would be a perfect description of me! For that, I apologize. jmho
peace love respect
I'm going to re-post this on a blog, but of course won't identify you. I welcome you to chime in on the post if you wish
I wonder how many people from here died from COVID since 2020 and or the "experimental gene therapy" disguised as a "vaccine"? Or are cripple so badly from those two they can't participate here anymore? Condolences to whomever there may be. I hope you some how get better. It appears genocide is taking place concerning the supposed, "vaccine". I have an ambulance pass by me every. single. day. since August of last year in 2021 when I drive across the city I live it. I am 44 years old and can count on one or two hands how many times that happened in my life before then. I see it happening all around me. Hopefully I am wrong and the people they are picking up and not actually DYING. Why would I and or we know? The forces and powers that be have either gotten all of the facts wrong since 2020 or they are lying. We all get to decide for ourselves what the truth is.
There is an unspoken majority that has been suppressed. A terrified few that feel hopeless when they realize what it means. Let me stop beating around the bush here. I'm talking about being attracted to children. Millions of people around the globe are attracted to children. For me it popped up around puberty, I realized I liked younger kids. I don't want this feeling of liking kids anymore. But I can't get rid of it. So I control it. I just want people to know that this "pedophile" is desperately trying to be normal. And I didn't choose this shit ????
I refer to him as Butterfly Boy but his name is Evan Wade. I find him fascinating.
I been eating alot of salad and have been slimming down very good to great if you have any diet plans please let me know :o I also drink ALOT of water everyday so that also helps by a ton with slimming me down XD I also like hearing everyone diet plan or what can improve huge weight loss
When I was a curious teenager and liked looking at pictures of naked fitness boys and yaoi/bara cartoons, I later got into gay porn. I was never attracted to girls, and the first video was of BelAmi boys. With them I learned. Some say they're straight :( but i am in love with them. They are the type of guy I like, healthy, friendly, nature, fit.
I find very funny, romantic videos where there are kisses and smiles, I love it!!
Now I want to share on this blog the videos that I liked the most. You can comment if you want :)
TIM AND MARCEL.
I don't know the name of the actors.
TIM AND DANNY.
Thanks GBT for the videos :D
I recently saw an ad asking for research participants who are "straight men who have sex with men." Ok GBT, what do we think?
1. Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time.
2. Love is love and no need to label it.
3. Who are they kidding? but it's kinda hot, aka straight fetish.
4. A hundred bucks is a hundred bucks, aka Broke Straight Boys, Czech Hunter, etc. gay for pay fetish.
5. It's ancient Rome or Greece. The man is merely educating the youth (smirk).
6. It's a macho or "homophobic" culture where the top/masc guy thinks he's straight or "identifies" as "straight."
7. Other? Discuss.

Redefining the 'Decade That Style Forgot'
Are you that 1 that just uses extra cheesy pick up lines to pick up a hot guy rather then being yourself? I find everyone different and there are some that use cheesy pick up lines sometimes other guys find it funny or hilarious some to most find it to be turn offs. I like guys who can be themselves rather then use cheesy pick up lines XD Like just talk to me directly without having use them and well be good.
Most of the hottest guys are gonna be hairy on the legs but hot on the eyes but just use whatever suits ya I guess XD I know most have never used cheesy pick up lines to pick up there Boyfriend it usually a romantic story on how someone meet there boyfriend or something so that always is understanding when 1 has a huge story how they meet and it usually doesn't have cheesy lines in it but at times I feel like it does. o.o
