Gay Sex at Occupy Oakland Scores on Internet, Porn Producer Says
Considering that a clip from Dirty Boy Video that appears to show two California men having sex in an Occupy Oakland tent is making headlines everywhere from Fox Nation to The Huffington Post since it went online Nov. 17, it figures porn producer Andy Fair would tell IBTimes Monday that he's been happy with his site's traffic lately.
The number of visitors to the site has increased quite nicely, the president of Dirty Boy Video said. Media attention gives people an excuse to check out the site -- both curiosity seekers and those who become interested in the rest of our offerings, if you know what I mean.
Occupy Oakland spokeswoman Kat Brooks told IBTimes she didn't know about anyone making porn at the protest encampment.
Though the Occupy movement that began on Wall Street in September has turned into a nationwide phenomenon, it's anyone's guess what impact the Dirty Boy Video clip Occupy My Throat will have on its image.
The shoot wasn't necessarily geared to generate support for the movement or to get all the attention it's received, said Fair. One of the things porn does is take popular culture and reflect it back, emphasizing elements that would otherwise be hidden or underground.
Moreover, he said some of the employees who made the clip were doing double duty as protesters.
One of the photographers we work with, along with a number of our performers, live in the Oakland area and were actively participating in the protest. As a matter of fact, several of the guys were there when the police fired tear gas and 'flash bang' grenades, he said, referring to the Oct. 25 clash between police and protesters there. So the idea to do a shoot seemed timely, and made sense since the models and photographer were already there, tent and all.
One person who wasn't there was 20-year-old Brandon Watts, who apparently lost his virginity with a woman amid the anti-Wall Street movement in New York. After Occupy My Throat premiered, Fair posted an open letter to the ravishing revolutionary.
As I watched the police drag you away in handcuffs, your face covered in blood, I could only think, 'Wow, he's hot!' Fair said in the letter, which turned up Nov. 22 on The New York Observer's site.
