Hey, Faggot:
“I don’t take that kind of work,” said Greg Becker of San Francisco’s Highlight Productions, which claims to be a full-service video production company. While he’s frequently asked to work on porn, Greg always declines. “Mostly people ask me to do postproduction, editing porn that someone else shot. I don’t have anything against porn, but editing it would mean having to listen to ‘oh oh oh’ all day long, and I don’t think I could stand it.” Is there a company that would shoot these two lovebirds? “There’s probably someone out there willing to do it. If they look, they’ll find that person eventually.”

In the phone book there are hundreds of listings for companies that make videos of weddings, first communions, and corporate meetings–whatever. Some fly-by-night video company would, Greg agreed, be willing to tape you and the girlfriend going at it. “I don’t think there’s a problem, legally speaking, so long as they’re both consenting adults,” he told me. “It’s not illegal to make a porn video, you know, unless they want to make a snuff film or something.”
I am a 24-year-old male, and I’ve been with my girlfriend for almost a year and a half. During the summer of ’97 I was across the country working and my girlfriend dumped me, then a little while later asked me back. During the time we were officially apart, I messed around a little. It didn’t go past oral sex, and when I got home I told my girlfriend about it. She told me that she “messed around” too. I could live with that. What she didn’t tell me, and what I found out four months later, was that she also fucked this other guy. I’m not sure whether to leave her. The past four months have been great, but we’ve been living under false pretenses. Also, I’m having trouble believing her when she claims she’s told me everything. She says she loves me and that it all happened at a different point in our relationship, but I don’t know if I want to be continue in an untrusting relationship! –Tortured
What’s so awful about being alone? I’m glad you got it together–though it’s typical that you’ve been in therapy seemingly forever–but not everyone is destined to be coupled. Folks destined to be alone, and who would be happier alone, don’t reconcile themselves to being alone because they’ve been duped into believing it’s a fate worse than death. It’s not.
