Considering that I’m the other gay man on this blog, I think it makes sense for me to write about a gay Asian Am porn star. (Even though this is really extremely obvious, all links to any of the sites I’ve linked to are generally not suitable for work. You have been warned.)
I’ve had the pleasure of knowing or at least knowing of various gay Asian Am porn stars, from Brandon Lee, the first gay Asian Am porn star to be picked up by a major porn director, Chi Chi La Rue (NOT to be confused with Bruce Lee’s late son of the same name); to knowing (in the Biblical sense and otherwise) various guys who have been featured on magazine shoots and (ahem) educational videos, who for reasons of privacy I won’t name here. I’ve always had a special place in my porn-loving heart for Van Darkholme though.
Van Darkholme is a guy who is best known for doing gay leathersex and kinky videos (primarily sadomasochism), the bulk of which has been self-produced, and makes a stop every year at the Folsom Street Fair to wow the crowd and for self-promotion, of course. I actually got to know him more personally through some mutual friends, and from reading his journal. Although he comes across to many people (in the circles that I know where he’s mentioned) as being standoffish and fairly one-dimensional, the e-mail conversations that I’ve had with him have always been pretty cerebral. In one of his earlier posts in his journal, he talks about coming to the US as a Vietnamese refugee, his mom having just married an American soldier, and how he and his family have survived. Reading the post helped me reinforce the respect I have for him as a person who always remembers where he’s come from.
Of course, it also helps that he is extremely hot. And that he spanked my ass at Folsom Street Fair when I was manning a booth in order to get more people to donate to the nonprofit that I was working for. That made my day (or year).
