Just when you thought you couldn’t experience Tayte Hanson on a more personal level, the CockyBoys exclusive model opens up for an interview with The Underwear Expert.
He goes surprisingly deep, revealing not-so-secrets such as a versatile belly button (he can make it an innie or an outie) and a love for jumping from staggering heights. We also asked him about his underwear, of course. Spoiler alert: he likes to exercise in jockstraps.
There is a Q&A below, but first things first: watch the video interview. Tayte wears a white Dolce & Gabanna brief under a pair of blue jeans. Did we mention he does so while soaking in a river? Well he does. And all of a sudden, it’s been far too long since we’ve skinny dipped.
Guilty Pleasure: What is your favorite reality TV or Competition show?
None. I love sitcoms and stand up comedy. If I had a guilty pleasure on TV it’d be re-watching American Ham by Nick Offerman. I also really enjoy most shows centered around homo culture because I enjoy seeing the opinions and views of others on the culture I find myself most attached to.
What’s the scariest/riskiest thing you’ve ever done not related to modeling?
I love heights and have jumped, flown, and fallen from many a tall place and love it. The most dangerous was probably cliff diving in Mexico — we were jumping from around 60 feet and the fall was amazing.
What is a smell you absolutely love?
I love wood. OK, man wood sure, but mostly pine, oak, and cedar. Something about nature is so incredibly sensual and sexy to me. If I ever come out with a fragrance, it’s basically gonna be a tree branch in a bottle.

I’m guessing what scares him is the same thing that strikes fear in many porn stars: Getting a real job.

@lykeitiz: What’s so great or noble about a “real” job? Most people hate their “real” jobs and would kill to do something else.
And despite the common belief that porn actors are all mentally disturbed drug addicts, many have a pretty good head on their shoulders and put the money they make to good use, like paying for college, because they know full well that porn isn’t something they’re likely to do for the rest of their life.
Charlie in Charge
@lykeitiz: He has a real job. Are you down on every gay person whose job doesn’t include 401K because that is a whole lot of people.

Great interview. Short and not too stupid. The questions are trivial, but his answers are honest and somewhat thoughtful.

@Bromancer7: @Charlie in Charge: Good responses to a stupid, hateful comment.

Based on all the other photos i have seen of him, Id say the only thing he seems to be scared of is shampoo.

I don’t have anything against porn, but I don’t think the belief that it’s less respectable than other professions qualifies as “hateful”.
Charlie in Charge
@DuMaurier: You don’t have anything against gay porn BUT it’s less respectable than other jobs? That actually sounds like you have something against gay porn. Are you a teacher or firefighter? If not, how do you feel about the people who say your job isn’t as respectable than other people’s jobs?

@rand503: You beat me to it! I thought he was most scared of a barber. 🙂
DuMaurier
@Charlie in Charge: Well…those examples seem to point to the question of social status; I (along with most people) have infinite respect for firefighters and teachers, but let’s face it, they’re less likely to be invited to a State Dinner than a Fortune 500 CEO or movie star. Porn star is a little different; I’ve personally known a couple who were great guys–and of course, gorgeous–but even though I’m NOT a CEO or movie star, there were social situations I wouldn’t have included them in, where the inevitable “So, what do YOU do?” comes up.
Again, love that porn exists, but let’s not be disingenuous; they’re taking off their clothes and having sex in front of a camera for money. It is what it is. I’ll take a teacher or a firefighter to my rich elderly aunt’s house for one of her formal dinners, but not a porn star. And they knew those were the rules when they signed up for it.
jwtraveler
@DuMaurier: Porn stars are not respectable enough for your rich, elderly aunt, who put out for some rich guy so she could live a life of luxury, or inherited millions from a father who got rich exploiting underpaid workers, busting unions, bribing government officials, selling products that destroy the environment and/or causing life-threatening diseases. Porn is a form of entertainment that is enjoyed by millions of people without causing much harm to anyone as far as I can see.
The notion that being rich makes people respectable is absurd. I have a lot more respect for porn actors who earn an honest buck than for a lot of captains of industry who got rich by illegal, harmful and unethical means, or for their heirs who were just born into it.
lykeitiz
@Charlie in Charge: Are you serious with that? Porn……respectable?
Of course everyone who does porn is not a bad person, but for a dose of reality, please see @DuMaurier: ‘s response to you: “Again, love that porn exists, but let’s not be disingenuous; they’re taking off their clothes and having sex in front of a camera for money. It is what it is.”
There can be sites like Queerty who interview them, and there can be sites like Queer Me Now who write glossy “articles” about them, but at the end of the day, trading sex for money is what it is, and “respectable” it ISN’T. Never will be.

how many times now have there been headlines about some teacher who did adult films? There was just a headline in NYC about a former adult performer joining the fire department.
New York City has this “program” for re-training over educated Whites who can’t get jobs and making them teachers. You can find these scum fu-kers posting stuff on the net about how they just spent another day trying to teach future convicts – they see themselves as actors. In short, there are a whole lot of teachers (particular in New York) who are lower on the food chain than pornstars.

@rand503: @spiffy: He’s young, hot and getting all the dick and ass he wants. Something tells me you’re jealous.
Saint Law
@jwtraveler: Straight out of ‘The Bitchez Best Book of Zingz’.
If someone has a strong sense of themselves and their boundaries then go for it. But porn has a far higher rate of burn-outs, break-downs and suicides than even awful low-wage arduous work like shelf stacking or serving fries.
To have reservations about somebody’s choice of it as a career is not to be ‘jeluz’.

@jwtraveler: oh, i think he is quite cute, and has a beautiful dick.But there are many other gorgeous men to drool over who have good personal hygiene. But hey. If greasy hair turns you in, more power to you.
jwtraveler
@Saint Law: If you study science, you will learn that in research there is a difference between correlation and causation. For example, if heavy drinkers have higher rates of lung cancer than light drinkers or non-drinkers, does that prove that alcohol causes lung cancer? It does not. Heavy drinkers are more likely to be smokers and the smoking causes lung cancer, not the alcohol.
Dentists, supposedly, have a high rate of suicide. Does that make dentistry a poor career choice?

@rand503: Are you an adolescent girl? I don’t know how you can tell his hair is greasy by watching a video. And I don’t think a long hair style is a sign of poor hygiene. You might not like his hair, but bitchy attacks on an otherwise attractive, muscular, young man is a sign that you’re a mean girl.
