GayDemon updates and site news, competitions, random news articles and announcements.
Blu Kennedy drops his stage surname while relaxing with buddies as plain-old "Blu" in Jake Cruise's games room, where he's a happy regular (above left). Meanwhile, when not (usually) bottoming in serious features for Titan, Michael Lucas and Falcon, Blu can be seen as "Ben" on his word-light Big Muscle profile.
Maxx Diesel claims to be straight: on his MySpace profile, where he's "Christian", he denies he's a porn star at all, saying he's just a "dude" who gets to work with "gorgeous women every day". Maybe that's why he takes his businesslike, Teutonic persona from one gay porn medium to the other, straining to smile as he gays-for-pay on screen or on line, at Men At Play (left), or My Friend's Feet and maybe he looks more at home as Christian in his straight porn titles like "Porn Stars from Mars" and "Big Sausage Pizza-Lisa Lipps".
Our congratulations to Gabe Marco. Gabe, brother of muscle model Vin Marco, is a well hung muscle man who has done several shoots for Manifest Men. We hear that he is July 2007's cover model for Men Magazine! It couldn't happen to a nicer - and hotter - guy. We look forward to seeing more of Gabe in magazines and websites, 'cause with that body, it's always good to see more of him!
Ever wonder about this site? This is not a huge corporation - Gaydemon started out as my personal link list in 1999. I wanted to share the sites I found while surfing porn on the net. The design wasn't very good as I didn't know much about making web pages, but I had fun looking for more and more sites to add. The idea was to have a way to organize all the sites I found out there into one place. Back then it was more difficult to find sites but gradually my link collection grew.
In fact, my collection grew so large that I had to organize them somehow - I felt that without a way to search the links, no one would be able to find what they were looking for, and some very good sites were buried. I tested several types of software till I found one that worked for me, and that's when Gaydemon and the directory really started to take shape.
As I mentioned, I didn't know very much about websites and design, so as the site grew and the longer I spend on it, the more I learned about design. Gaydemon changed looks, functions and layout as I got better at design. So Gaydemon and I, we grew together really. As I got better so did Gaydemon.
Starting out, Gaydemon was only really a hobby, but as it grew in popularity the more it took of my time. Not only is Gaydemon still is my one passion and biggest hobby - it's also become a full time job, but one that I really enjoy! Gaydemon is very much a labour of love.
Gaydemon has gone through a lot of different stages as I gained knowledge and it got more popular. It has changed logos and mascots (the cartoon) several times, until a couple of years back I finally found the cartoon that really matched my idea of who Gaydemon was - the cartoon from Patrick Fillion.
The reviews at Gaydemon were a early extra feature, but started very small. As I was passionate about gay porn, a bit of an addict really, I did subscribe to a lot of different sites. Most of them were really crap, but since I paid for the membership I thought why not share what I think with others. So the review section started. Early on it was only very short reviews, written by myself. Unfortunately my writing skill were never very good so I soon found other people to help me out who could put it down in words much better than I could. Today there are now several different people helping me out with reviews - but I read and check every one!
Today, I still go out on the web looking for new gay sites to add to Gaydemon. Some we review, some I list in the directory. I'd like to list as many gay sites as possible, and hopefully feature the sites I think are best so more people can enjoy them as much as I do.
The Gaydemon concept nowadays is to still bring porn in every way and format - links to it or products - while making it easier for people to find exactly what they are looking for, helping them learn more about the sites in reviews on an easy-to-use site that works, is easy on the eye, user friendly for anyone (old, young, internet beginners, people with disabilities etc).
Internet site usability and standard compliance is important so everyone can see and use the site easily. I work on learning about things like W3C, CSS and XHTML - I'm trying to keep Gaydemon on the forefront when it comes to gay adult porn and user-friendly and compliant sites.
In case you're wondering, the Fetish section has always been my favorite, and I'm always trying to find more sites for it. And even though Gaydemon is now a large site filled with links and reviews, I still go out personally, looking for good sites to add to the Gaydemon directory. Like I said, Gaydemon is still my hobby and I love making it better and better and finding new porn every chance I get!
I would love to hear what you think about gaydemon - bad or good! So send me a message!
Enjoy Gaydemon!

Owner & porn fanatic
You've seen them on the market, a slew of vids from various amateur pornmakers which specialize in young, hot straight boys being poked, prodded, probed, and masturbated by old, hairy, sometimes pudgy daddy types. May I just say'ewwwwww. This particular kind of gay porn vid baffles me to no end, and I am convinced that the audience for it is very limited. Of course, I could be full of dog shit, but that's the beauty of editorializing. You either agree with me or you don't, and neither of us is wrong or right. Ah, the pleasure in freedom of expression! So, don't get mad at me because daddy vids make me lose my lunch on my shoes. I can't help it. I'm just drawn that way.
I am really, really pleased on the rare occasion that I discover a porn site that is different from the norm and attempts to present a true concept of erotic fantasy as opposed to industrialized fucking and sucking which can be rather banal unless the models and action are exceptionally hot. While I don't wish to utilize the editorial forum to promote Web sites (since we have reviews for that), I do want to take a moment to praise trendsetters and innovators in the online porn industry. There aren't enough of them, but when we find one, they deserve all the attention they can get.
