In a statement published on Adult Video News, Reed said he felt it was time to pursue other business opportunities. And just to make it clear, Reed underlined, " I would also like to state that I am not or never have been gay, just an adult performer."

Thanks for telling us something everyone already knows, you dick. One of Reed's last scenes is him getting banged by four black guys. Doesn't knowing that he's straight make it all the hotter?  

What's Up? Today's hottest gay links

That's sure not the only stupid name for a porn site. Lollipop Twinks has got to be one of the silliest ever, and what is the point, really? It's children who enjoy lollipops, and while all the young men on this site are  legal, what fantasy is being flirted with here? 

Which bring me to Guys in Sweatpants. Yes, it had its origins as user-submitted site where guys sent  in pics of themselves in sweat pants, dicks out. But it isn't that anymore. So why keep a ridiculous name that sounds so unsexy? Might as well call it Guys in Potato Sacks. 

A porn site's name is one of its biggest marketing tools; sometimes it just goes to waste. 

Douglas explained that he wanted to be able to show his young kids the film without having to explain the explicit shots.

He said he had no problem sharing intimate moments on camera with his co-star Matt Damon, who plays Liberace’s young lover Scott Thorson. It was the more graphic images of overly large male genitalia that worried him.

“Liberace loved sex, and I didn’t have a problem with that," he said. "But, at one point, Steven Soderbergh wanted to show Lee (Liberace) watching a gay porno…

“I said, ‘I’d like my kids to see this R-rated movie, but I don’t want to show them a 14-inch dick!’ It was the only thing I objected to, so we cut to different parts of the apartment during the porno… It may not have been 14 inches, but it was huge.”

Thanks a lot, kids!

Each year, Moscow has denies a permit to groups wishing to hold a Gay Pride Parade, even though the denial has been repeatedly ruled illegal by European Courts. This year, Moscow has again said no to a Gay Pride request.

Then there's the 'Gay Propaganda' legislation in various parts of Russia that make showing homosexuality in a positive light a criminal act. A country-wide version of the law is now being debated.

This all makes the results of a recent poll, though chilling, not all that surprising.

According to the Levada Center, over 70% of Russians think public displays of homosexuality are unacceptable. Only 12% think it's okay.

As well, 35% of respondents said same-sex relations were a disease or a result of psychological trauma, and 43% thought it was a bad habit.

Only13% said homosexuality should be punishable with jail time, though another 38% of respondents felt gays needed treatment. Only 38% felt homosexuals should be left alone.

Gay marches are often met with violence, sanctioned by authorities and ignored by police. And just last week a young man was tortured, sexually assaulted with beer bottles and killed after coming out to two 'friends.'

Russia will remain a sad, backward country for years until it smartens up!

With just a few words, French porn star Francois Sagat declared his porn days were officially over. He released the statement on YouTube in a short video shot in front of Sleeping Beauty’s Castle at Disneyland Park.

His message: “Hello, I’m Francois Sagat and from this day forward I’ve retired from porn.”

He revealed a little more on his blog, saying, “I want to tell you everything. But I do not plan to make porn again. No regrets. Just new goals.”

Sagat started work in the industry when he was 25 for the French site Citebeur, using the alias Azzedine. He changed his name to Sagat in 2005 when he agreed to work for Raging Stallion, appearing in several videos for the company. He also starred in Bruce LaBruce's strange porn-horror-indie flick L.A. Zombie, proving that even the undead can't resist a hard cock and a hot ass.

His last adult film was Incubus 2 for Titan Men.

Aside from porn, Sagat has been a popular muse for fashion designers and photographers, and had a small role in the mainstream gore-fest, Saw IV.
