On Don’t Quit Your Gay Job, the Canadian OUTtv series where homosexuals are followed around as they attempt a new career or something, best friends Rob Easton (a journalist) and Sean Horlor (an actor and author of drug tome Made Beautiful by Use) decide what they really want to be in life are strippers. So producers call up gay-for-pay porn star Nick Dent, better known to fans as Reese Rideout, to provide a few lessons in working the stage. The takeaway: If you bring an umbrella on stage, you better be prepared to use it. That, and there’s some confusion about whether male strippers are supposed to show their members?

OK. THAT was HOT!!! Yay Queerty for this. (and I don’t say that often)
Both amateur strippers were hot as well but I dug Rob’s performance.
Reese oozes sex. I don’t know if it’s a show, if he practices it so much that it’s now natural, or if it’s natural but his voice is all seductive and he does have those seductive bedroom eyes throughout. Reese/Nick… this just made me a fan.

@Adonis-of-Fire: I’d like a step-by-step play for exactly how gay-for-pay is an exploitation of a queer community.

@Casey: Um…Rupaul’s Drag Race is on of Logos most viewed television programs. So clearly people DO want to see that particular type of show.
Explain to me what exactly is so wonderful about this featured show beyond the fact that you get partial male nudity.

@Steven: These two guys go and learn a new stereotypical “gay” job every episode. I downloaded a few episodes and it’s obvious that this show combats LGBT stereotypes instead of reinforcing them. Drag Race and A List promote the same old tired gay stereotypes. Logo should be airing shows like this one.

@Shofixti:
Support of all things “queer”, comes from mostly the “queer” community and some women who “fetishize” “queer” content.
We should support members of the community that do the same sort of work and not give out money to those who dabble for financial gain.
If the gay-for-pay men also actively support equality causes, etcetera then we should support them without question, but most of them at the end of the day just go back to their hetero-normative lives, after work.
Though I agree with Jake that “”Reese Rideout” is not a Kinsey 0!

Now Reese is tutoring gay gogo dancers in intimate private lessons?
That seems a LOT more homo-intimate to me than any gay porn Reese could ever do. Are we sure he’s gay (only) for pay?
Anything for them dolla-dolla bills, I guess, huh Reese-y baby? Hah!

@Blake J:
You speak of porn as if it’s some noble humanitarian act. If you have a c0ck or an @ss at the ready, I don’t see why it’s the porn producer’s job to interrogate and enact restrictions upon an actor because of an absrtact notion of binary-or-otherly-distributed sexuality. You f*ck for money, or you don’t – it’s actually that simple.
If you truly want to queerspeak then you have to accept that there is no real gay identity inside anyone to be discovered or employed, there are only representations of power.
@justnow:
The ‘desire of straight men’ is your interpretation of what you see. Why can’t it just be that there are a heck-of-a-lot more straight men than gay. There are a lot of hot straight men. And that it’s just statistically likely that any profession that employs mostly men will have some straight men in its workforce.
Judging and restricting texts (porn) because of possible interpretations is a huge, massive, supermassive threat to free-speech and action.
Also – do gay mean really want straight men as (civil) partners in reality, or is there a certain exotic fantasy to the unobtainable that might fit this pattern better and in a less threatening way to you?

hot! and if straight men are so unthreatened by us that they see a viable career path in gay porn, then so much the better

Why can’t Logo show quality programming like this? This is the type of reality I’d like to see instead of a bunch of no talent caddy gays walking the streets of NY.
