Misrepresentation

It will come as a relief to many of you that I don't intend to pontificate on the law as it relates to misrepresentations - innocent, fraudulent or otherwise.

Some of you will no doubt recognise this incredibly beautiful boy as "Danny" from Sean Cody but who in real life, assures me that he's Roger from Barnsley. I know very little about Barnsley and like many people who have lived in the south of England for most of their lives, anything north of Watford is quite mysterious - all I know about Barnsley is that it's got a football (soccer) club which is currently 6th in the Coca-Cola League but that's about it.

I was logged on to MySpace IM late yesterday evening wondering whether another friend of mine might be online and Roger IMd me. He said he was bored and horny.

I was a bit sceptical about his identity at first as I recognised his default picture as "Danny" from Sean Cody and there's lots of people on MySpace who "borrow" pictures of other people to use as their default picture. Sometimes it's obvious that they do but sometimes it's not and in this case, I couldn't be sure as the biographical information on Sean Cody was inconsistent with his profile on MySpace.

I tried to be subtle about raising the identity issue and I hope I didn't offend him but he seemed to try very hard to convince me that Danny was actually Roger. I didn't need much convincing and was happy to accept him for who he.

To some extent, most of us who have an online identity probably use an assumed name and in the world of adult modelling this is, I understand, all the more true. In this respect, I'm no different - not that I'm in the adult modelling business - but I use an assumed name when I'm online - you can never be too careful about these things.

I soon came to realise that the biographical information for "Danny" couldn't be further from the truth and Roger confirmed that it was all made up. I frankly don't understand why the writers of Sean Cody needed to make up a story about "Danny". Most, if not all the visitors to the site are probably gay and don't need to be fed a made-up straight boy models for a gay website to find the models insanely attractive. Speaking for myself, I'm just as attracted to a gay guy who is from Barnsley as I would be to a straight guy from the American midwest if he looked anything like Roger.

As far as appearance is concerned, Roger definitely my type but he is so out of my league. I suspect that he is either taken or fancies someone else - Harry - who also happens to be a model on Sean Cody. I told Roger I thought he was cute which was a considerable understatement - I simply didn't want to come across as a big lech.

It was close topast midnight and I had to work today so we didn't get to chat much. He seemed nice enough though but I would have liked to have talked to him more - it was a fairly superficial conversation about interests (sex-related) and where the various cruisy places are around Bondi and Manly. I hope he's on IM again in the not too distant future - I'd like to get to him better.

In the meantime, he said that he's done a video with Billy off Sean Cody but that's not yet up on the website. I'll be looking forward to seeing it. Roger says that Billy is his type - I competely agree - Billy is also definitely my type.

Out of respect for Roger, I've not pasted any nakie pictures of him in this entry - if you want to see them, you'll need to either contact Roger on MySpace or check out "Danny" on Sean Cody.
