Gay-for-pay describes male or female actors, pornographic stars, or sex workers who self-identify as heterosexual but who are paid to act or perform as homosexual professionally. The term has also applied to other professions and even companies trying to appeal to a gay demographic. The stigma of being gay or labeled as such has steadily eroded since the Stonewall riots began the modern American gay rights movement in 1969. Through the 1990s, mainstream movie and television actors have been more willing to portray homosexuality, as the threat of any backlash against their careers has lessened and society's acceptance of gay and lesbian people has increased.〔(Full report ) (126 pages)〕 In the gay pornography industry, which uses amateurs as well as professional actors, the term ''gay-for-pay'' refers to actors labeled or believed to be straight but who engage in same-sex sexual activities for money. Some actors who are actually gay or bisexual will be marketed as straight to appeal to the "allure of the unattainable", because straight men (or those newly coming out) are virgins to sex with other men, and "as in most gay male settings, the young, the muscular, and the unfamiliar are more sought."〔William L. Leap. ''(Public Sex/Gay Space )''. Columbia University Press; 1999 (December 30, 2011 ). ISBN 978-0-231-10691-7. p. 62.〕. ==Pornography== In gay pornographic movies, actors who identify themselves as heterosexual, but who nevertheless perform explicit sexual acts with other males on film (e.g., Clay Maverick, Mike Branson, Wolf Hudson, Christian, Peter North, Leo Giamani) do not face the same stigmas as the mainstream acting counterparts and indeed can rise quickly to being featured actors. These actors often play the "top" roles but this is not always the case, such as with Kristen Bjorn and some Bel Ami models. Kurt Wild, who appeared as a bottom in Lucas Entertainment's ''Gigolos'', is married to a woman and has three children.〔("Kurt Wild: Married with children and expecting one more" ), Banana Guide, January 4, 2008.〕 Because some gay men consider heterosexual men to be objects of fantasy, some gay porn producers have almost certainly described some actors as heterosexual to increase sales and publicity for their product. Moreover, many gay or bisexual men who star in gay porn films may wish to be identified publicly as heterosexual for personal or professional reasons. Some straight actors have started acting in gay porn only to be accused of being gay while others' first step was to strictly do solo scenes. The higher pay scale and profile within a production often leads to group scenes where a straight actor only "tops". Many times a "top" actor will then be sought as a bottom and the debut is often treated as a notable event or even its own release. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gay-for-pay」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
