Daddyhunt Blog Posts from March 2011

Whether you're a Daddy exhibitionist looking for an opportunity to show the world what you got or your heart belongs to Daddy and you like 'em knocking at your door, modeling for Daddyhunt.com is the perfect opportunity to turn some heads!

Our models actually do more then turn heads, they exemplify the "no attitude" real men that appear on the site. Interested? We have some upcoming photos shoots coming up and we are in need of some hot daddies, bears, cubs, leather men, jocks, gingers, and hunters of all shapes and sizes in the New York City area. We're looking for hot, confident, magnetic, and outgoing guys to represent our community.

If you fit the bill, drop us a line (and a picture or profile name) to joe@daddyhunt.com and we'll fill you in on the details.

A picture says a thousand words. What do you have to say?

By now, most of us are familiar with Dan Savage's hugely successful 'It Gets Better' video campaign, a result of the increased awareness of gay teen suicides taking place across the nation. What started out as a safe platform for gay adults to speak to struggling gay youth, exploded into a celebrity and politician filled YouTube channel encouraging today's youth that while high school can be hell, it does eventually get better.

IT GETS BETTER: Coming Out, Overcoming Bullying, and Creating a Life Worth Living, was released this week, a collection of essays from the likes of David Sedaris, Hillary Clinton, Tim Gunn, Chaz Bono, Suze Orman and many others which proved to be both inspirational and entertaining. I can almost guarantee that if this project/book existed when I was younger, I'd be reading or watching every night. I remember my own struggle, and how much of an impact seeing real, genuine gays that existed outside of a fairly dark adolescence helped me forge ahead. It doesn't take a lot to ignite that spark of hope inside someone, and it's amazing how incredibly far that hope can take you.

They've also started a donation program that is setting out to get the book into every high school library in America. All you need...

As a member and contributor to this site, I guess it's no secret that I like older guys.

At 27, I would say the median age of the guys I’ve dated hovers somewhere around the late 30s/early 40s mark. It might even skew a little higher than that. And while I have no problem with someone not wanting to date me because ‘I’m not their type’, or because they ‘think I’m too goofy,’ or ‘don’t like the way I eat burritos’, I do take issue with someone not wanting to date me because of my age.

Yes, I may have been in pre-school when you lost your butt sex cherry to the Cure’s ‘Love Song’, but I have a working penis now, complete with a brain that can process a hell of lot more than we youngers are given credit for. Sure there are things you’ll have to school me on, but the great thing about youth is that we’re very open and susceptible to new ideas. Heck, we even welcome them.

Connections aren’t built on whether or not I saw Madonna’s first VMA appearance or whether you’ve watched every single episode of Saved by the Bell three times over. They go deeper than that. Like we've chatted about before on here, the gays have one giant shared experience between them: the joys and pains of coming out. Common ground is inherent in our community which is why a 10-20 year age gap is significantly lessened by our gay initiation.

Now here's the part that really gets me. More often than not I've come up against concern from guys I've dated about the age gap. This is a valid concern and something that definitely should be discussed openly and honestly....

Coming off yesterday's news that college is not the hyper-sexualized same-sex experimentation free-for-all that everyone makes it out to be I breathed a small sigh of relief. It seems that every summation of college includes some form of sexual experimentation, and it's something that I never really experienced. Being out during the majority of my college years may be the cause of this, but it doesn't make me any less relieved. You see, throughout college I befriended many a straight guy. Let me rephrase, many a straight guy I wanted to bone. And drunk upon drunker night I would hope that somehow, someway, their curiosity would be piqued enough for them to want to try something new. But alas, this never happened leading me to believe that all this talk of the sexually fluidity that is college was merely a sensationalized fantasy gays had concocted and spread to the masses.

Then again, maybe I wasn't doing it right.

I should note that the study cited here was based on experimentation in young college women, but figured the findings may still hold weight considering any straight/gay experimentation amongst guys in college is probably on the low down never to be spoken of again.

Until now of course...

For those of you who have indeed flipped a few in college, please regale us with any stories, findings, or opinions you may have on the subject.
