Erik Rhodes

This is my 4th porn-star related post, and this time it's Erik Rhodes' turn:

I like Erik - I've seen some people be really rude about him on the internet, saying he's a douchebag etc, and I really don't see any need for it - it's not like they even know him anyway. Perhaps they think they do because of his searingly honest blog (link in my blog selection on the right) but I read it from time to time and I just get the impression he's a depressed guy and doesn't really know how to cope with life. I think it's a bit odd that he has this totally dichotomous relationship with porn, in that he seems to hate it and what he's become doing it, yet doesn't really show much sign of stopping.



Then again, as one of Falcon's biggest stars, and considering they're one of the biggest gay porn studios, I think he should be proud of his achievements and perhaps be a little bit more gracious towards his fans who have put him there - but I dunno, I'm not a gay porn star so I can't comment. I just think it's a shame that there's someone who doesn't really seem to enjoy what they do, whereas a lot of other guys (including the ones I've commented on previously) genuinely seem to love it and have a lot of fun with it, which I find sexy.



Anyway, I think Erik is a cool guy, and while he's not really my type (I think he might be just a bit too bulky for me) I do think he's a handsome guy and a great performer. I wish him all the best and hope he finds a happy and content place to be, whether that's in porn or some other venture!



He's got really nice equipment though, so I think - play to your assets! Mind you, I didn't really enjoy the recent scene he did with Francois Sagat, in Ringside - not sure why as I thought they would be a good pairing, but I just didn't get much chemistry from it. I think Erik would go well with a slightly older guy.
