I’M DEFINITELY getting old.
But oh, so beautifully.
And in style.
And with taste.
***
Yesterday, I watched some movies on YouTube.
And I like the sex scenes.
I mean, they’re almost porn.
You can really see that the boy lead is being sexually abused by the older gay lead.
***
I’m not a pedophile.
But there’s something about gay sex scenes between a supposed 22-year-old character (looks 17 to me), and a 47-year-old character (looks 57 to me).
And I’m thinking: These are not really movie star gorgeous actors.
What the hell are the producers thinking?
***
So, did the younger actor (he’s not an actor; he’s just a body!) agree to be ravaged on screen just to be in a movie?
Just to be seen?
Perhaps to be able to use the movie as a calling card to becoming a call boy in the days to come?
***
What makes a young person agree to kiss another ugly person (and older, too!), get his nipple sucked, get his underwear removed, and get smelled or kissed down there, in a movie that we all know is not going to get a nomination for the Oscar’s Best Picture?
***
There was a time when showbiz was the domain of beautiful people, gorgeous faces, or great bodies.
Paraluman, Gloria Romero, Susan Roces, even Alma Moreno, Gretchen Barreto, Snooky Serna, even Angel Locsin, Marian Rivera.
Or undeniable talents like Charito Solis, Anita Linda, Celia Rodriguez, Vilma Santos, Nora Aunor.
***
And then, came the fearless uglies.
Who made it to the movies because they were fearless in showing their bodies on the screen.
Fearless in sex scenes, and other exploitative positions.
Or, they were fearless in sleeping their way up.
***
Today, it’s all about fearlessness.
People think that they can just start ugly and talentless.
And if they stay long enough, they’ll have enough projects and money to glow up in three or five, or even ten years.
Nose jobs, boob jobs, gluta injections, thick make ups, you know the drill.
***
Oh, but when they’re ugly, talentless, and ruining a good story…
It’s just so bad. It’s disgusting.
Because how can you have a suspension of disbelief for the movie if you are thinking: How did this guy get the role? Who did he sleep with?
***
I’m glad that we all understand that the pornographic dance choreography of half-naked boys on TikTok is meant for more views.
I think they get paid for every 10,000 views or something.
(If I am wrong, I am not that far wrong!)
It is also meant for them to go popular, viral, like the corona virus.
To get discovered for Macho Dancer-type of movies.
If not downright exploitative gay films.
***
So, good luck to them.
I mean, we can now understand why this new generation is so adamant for the world to legitimize sex work.
And so eager for us to recognize sex worker’s rights.
***
Baby, I think sex work is disgusting.
But if that’s what you like, go ahead, exploit your body.
Your body, your work, your income.
But please don’t call it art.
***
Don’t even call it a livelihood.
Because for me, it’s just laziness.
You may somersault all you like, but you cannot convince me otherwise.
It’s not like I haven’t talked to hundreds of prostitutes.
***
I wasn’t born yesterday, darling.
Or maybe, I was.
Still…
Prostitution is just easier than planting camote.
***
Again, don’t disguise what you do as art.
Or even work.
Because some of you are just so ugly for porn that I lose my erection.
***
And just because I have money to spare, I enjoy paying you.
Enjoy paying to watch you.
Just to make me cringe.
Just to make me feel powerful looking at sh*theads like you!/PN
