Oh, Jacen
Jacen Zhu is undeniably, a very attractive man. There's no way around it. Both Jimmy and Maddie can also confirm my recommendation regarding his oeuvre: get thee to the tubes and find him. You will not be disappointed. He's a great adult performer, enthusiastic, charismatic, almost athletic. And that body will inspire you to take things into your own hands.
But Jacen is much more than just that delicious disposition. He's called out the racism that lurks under the surface of porn productions and he's done so publicly, even though the repercussions may have costed him money. He called out Noir Male (a studio who flouted its clout of having Black performers) for only casting white passing men for some porn while casting only black men for some other porn. The same people were in charge of the casting, but black models were relegated to interracial scenes, while white-passing models were casted in more 'mainstream' porn. Even though it's called 'Noir Male' there's not enough Black/Black representation. Haven't they thought that Black men want to see themselves represented in porn not just as a tokenized, fetishized image but as well, Black men having sex with Black men?
I stop working for Noir Male when I woke up. When I saw that everything was a lie and I would like to apologize for having the wolves in suits to sell this lie. Wake up y’all and see it’s not about us.— jᎪᏟᎬᏁ Ꮓhu (Sensei Koga) (@jacen_zhu) April 1, 2019
Jacen raised some hell and spilled the tea. Hot. And of course, I was there for him. The idea that there's no racism in gay porn because they sprinkle some Black performers here and there is delusional at best and damaging at worst. Black performers should not have to raise hell to be well paid and hired based on their talent. Both Icon Male and Noir Male are owned by straight, white men. Using tokenized models to appear 'color blind' is insulting. Mr. Zhu went balls deep:
Models of color, I’m urging you to stop working with Noir Male. I understand we have less opportunities. However, we must force change and no longer be used as cash cows for misrepresentation. We deserve authentic inclusion and stand against being bullied into silence. We have to unite to bring about change in this industry. We must speak truth of our experiences within this industry. We must create a safe industry for future generations where inclusion is the norm and authentic representation is required. Stand with me and #BoycottNoirMale

You should go and read all the tea. Meanwhile, I'll leave you with what Mr. Shife calls the Dong Parade:
Oh, here. In case you don't have time to make it to PornHub...

See how I always think about your convenience? No, you don't have to thank me. I'm generous like that.
XOXO
What a lovely man. And teaming up with Rhyheim is a match made in heaven.
ReplyDeleteCalling out Noir for their hypocrisy, though financially detrimental to him, is quite the brave move. Kudos for sticking to his principles. Hopefully minority owned studios could flourish, especially in this time of COVID. Until that time I hope the OF/JFF for these performers can fill that hole.
XOXO 👨❤️💋👨
Ohh yes. Him and Rhyheim is a sight to behold.
DeleteAnd he did call them for their bullshit. I admire that. Studios need that kind of reckoning.
Hope his Only Fans page does well...
XOXO
Good on him for calling out the racism and taking ownership of his part in it.
ReplyDeleteHot, HOT, smart and compassionate. All my favorite things in a man.
I know right?
DeleteIt's incredible the lengths those studios will go to sugarcoat their racism. But it's also the consumers....
And yep, he's HAWT and smart! Killer combo.
XOXO
That first photo of him naked... OMGerg. On my knees. When I am doing pic searches for my blog? I have the most difficult time finding pics of black men and Asian men. The pickings are slim and I think that is just the tip of the iceberg. But go google a subject - like naked gay men drinking beer. 99 percent of what comes up is white as white. I applaud Jacen for calling it as it is. Things have to change. When I google naked gay men... I should see all people. There is room at the table for all - and it 's damn time everybody got served equal portions.
ReplyDeleteOh yes. I second you here. He's a sight to behold.
DeleteAnd your example is totally true. You google 'naked men' and it's a wall-to-wall lilly-white invasion. Pitiful.
He was courageous, I think. Calling on their bullshit. It was his job, after all what what on the line. There should be room at the table for all.
XOXO
No, You are 'Sweet' like that!
ReplyDeleteLove U , Six.
Aww
DeleteLove ya back, Jimmy!
XOXO
Every industry is rife with this problem. BLM is not strictly about police brutality and them killing Black people - it is about our pervasive white-privileged society. And, it's damn well time for that to change - past time, actually. XOXO
ReplyDeleteTrue!
DeleteBLM is about the systemic (and systematic) racism that permeates society. And that's what many people don't understand. It makes me stabby...
XOXO
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! Black men having sex with Black men? What IS this WORLD coming too?!?!?!?!?!!?
ReplyDeleteI know, right?
DeleteWhat will people do if they see that sight? Especially in big gay porn studios?
Clutch your pearls!!
XOXO
Very cute, but I suspect he's about 5' 2", now if he were 6' 2" that would be different.
ReplyDeleteHahaha
DeleteYou're such a size queen, Dave.
He's 5'9" according to his RentBoy profile.
He's a full inch taller than I am. So you would have nothing to do with shrimp like us?
XOXO
When it comes to looking fit and athletic, I gotta say: gay dudes put us heterosexuals to shame most of the time. Too bad we don't come with a default mindset to achieve and maintain an adequate weight.
ReplyDeleteWell, gay man find they need to be buff and fit to attract as many possible mates as they can. Also, Jacen is in porn, so that's his meal ticket right there...
DeleteXOXO
