Nathan Exposed » Craigslist

Who needs writers when you have the 24/7 reality show that unfolds on Craigslist every day?

I love this site. If you really want to know how candid people are when they are sitting in the privacy of their home, look no further. In particular, I like to check out the M4M Personals. (Don’t worry, I’m not having an affair.)

The things that men will say to get a little action are unbelievable. Wow. And nobody is as unfiltered as the gay male. Last night, I stumbled across a guy I know from Nashville. “Aggressive black top wants submissive white bottom.”

Honey, please. I know you. He’s about as aggressive as a butterfly. And could he be anymore cliche? I’ve seen sooooo many pornos with the angry black male taking control of the helpless white man. Bor-ing. Can’t we both have penises and just be equals?

Oh, and there was this “married straight man” looking for “discreet fun” with another man. He had the tiniest penis… erect! I don’t mean to be rude, but sometimes it’s just best to sell yourself with your personality… if you have one. And shame on him for cheating on his wife! That poor girl. Not only did she have to finish herself off after he was done (because she couldn’t feel anything when he was inside her) but now Mr. Man wants to go and have an affair. Shame, shame…

But moving on… I recently decided I wanted to try out some experiments with my webcam (not those kind). Think of it like a talk show without an audience.

There are already plenty of video podcasts out there, and I don’t want to do those. Unfortunately, podcasts did not hold my attention. I eventually became bored with them, which leads me to think people also became bored with the audio ones I did. I always figure if I’m bored, others are too.

My idea is to be interactive, and talk with other people using iChat because it’s easy to record with it. I decided I’d like to specifically talk with gay men who came out when they were teenagers, and maybe ones who endured a lot of homophobia. I went through that, so I always feel connected to other survivors of that rough patch in life.

I’m looking for a serious tone that gets down to the depths of people. If I can get them cry, they get brownie points. Everybody loves a good cry caught on camera.

I placed an ad on Craigslist and not one homo responded. Maybe I should have enclosed a picture of my dick. That seems to work in the M4M sections. But I want to be taken seriously.
