      This is a very sad, and very typical story in that industry. I modeled for a bit in my 20s, and I know I could’ve done a lot more if I was serious. It was more of a side thing to my acting. I had the opposite problem, where I’d get chastised or fired because the female models on the set were always flirting with me and the straight photographers got jealous. Apparently I was “so straight” that they never tried sex with me, which is insane because I was actually gay. So not nearly as bad as your experience, but still a sort of hazing.
      Seeing this video helps me understand the rest of your posts so much more. And as a gay man who does NOT hookup with his friends, I have always wanted better male platonic friends, whether gay or bi or whatever. It’s not an easy thing to find in LA. So I really appreciate your posts. They have helped me feel more normal and often make me smile. Thanks.

    As a gay man I can’t imagine doing this to another human being. He didn’t rape you because he was gay. He raped you because he is a predator. Society understands her feelings somewhat when a woman is raped but not a man.

      A lot of men don't report it also because they are embarased and some men don't think it's as serious or don't want to seem like p*ssy's for being affected by it. I've seen so many men talk about experiences of sexual assault but rarely have any actually reported it. You can't really blame them because like you said SA on men is not taken as seriously, the few I did see who have reported it are gay men. Maybe because some gay men are more comfortable being vulnerable than straight men. Society as a whole are bad for not taking it seriously, but some of the worse people I have seen downplaying it online has been gay men. Not saying they are the only ones but I have noticed them doing it on some straight guys videos that spoke out, even to the point of saying the straight guys must have gave them the come on because gay guys only approach men who show interest. The reason I bring it up is because it does not seem as frowned upon when gay guys poke fun of these men because gay men are a minority group and by some seen as a victimised group, so it's like they can have more free rain and the straight men don't get much back up.
      Some of the straight guys I've seen talk about actually getting sexually harassed by a gay men always get a good few gay guys in the comments trying to downplay it, excuse and shame the straight guys. I'n a couple videos the guys talked about gay guys going into the gym sauna and jacking off next to them and another exposing himself. The gay guys in the comments(most of them state they're gay) were trying normalise that behaviour like it was perfectly acceptable. Unless they're real creeps straight men don't start beating off like that next to an attractive woman...if they did they would be arrested. If a gay man want to compliment or shoot his shot at a straight man in a normal civilised way there's no problem with that, it's the ones who don't take no for an answer and are agressive and predatory. It's the same thing with straight guys who behave that way towards women, it's just the gay guys who are the same aren't being called out for it enough because people don't want to be labeled homophobic..
      The sad thing is men are going to be less likely to report it because they would be too embarassed to, but it's just as violating. It's plain sexual harasment and indecent exposure. It's not a compliment when it happens to women and it's not a compliment when it happens to men (unless you're a hypersexualised gay man who's into that)..it's creepy as hell and so inappropriate and bordering on sexual assault.
      I seen a video that a taxi driver posted that was taken from the camera inside the cab where a gay man pulled down his pants in the back seat. A lot of the gay men in the comments were justifying and excusing his behaviour by saying the cab driver should take it as a compliment. It's sickening, they need to respect another persons boundaries and sexuality the same as they expect everyone else to respect theirs. We all know if that had been a woman driiver it would have been taken much more seriously.

    One of the best videos that you've made in a while. I was sexually assaulted by an older woman, whom I trusted as a friend, when I was 19 (She was in her mid-40s). At the time when I told older men what happened, they minimized it and thought I was lucky to get laid. I buried that experience deep within myself. At 55(ish) the memory surfaced during a conversation and began to cry. It took me several conversations with trusted friends and colleagues (one of whom was a counselor on the campus where I worked) to work through it. The more I talked about it the better I got. But I cried several times when telling people about it. If you don't work through it, it stays with you in a negative way for as long as you live.
    I'm glad that you're working through your sexual traumas. It's healthy. Sex is a part of an intimate relationship. It doesn't have to be the main thing, but it is a thing.
    I have often been impressed with your love of life, your openness, and your seemingly very friendly and approachable way of interacting with everyone. But I am extremely impressed with your willingness to talk about these very personal issues in an effort to help others.

      Young boys being sexually assaulted and rape, I STILL hear men talking about it as if it is acceptable. I was playing persona 3 and going through the Reddit talking about a character who falls in love with a teacher and he fucks her and everything and the main character is rewarded for telling him to go for it and congratulating him when he’s done it. Idk just had to share cuz that whole storyline made me feel really uncomfortable and the big finale is that HES to blame for being manipulated by her! Japan has fucked up views of sexuality

      hello dustin...i was also sexually assaulted by a woman when i was 18... it was an utterly humiliating experience and i just buried it
      until my 70's when i realized that experience was a huge influence on my sexual dysfunctions and my ability to trust ....anyone
      when i finally told of this experience to a trusted friend
      his response was
      'how does that happen???"...like it isn't possible
      i feel that most people think that a man being sexually assaulted by a woman is not even possible
      but it is

    Ohne emotionale Bindung funktioniert nichts und ich ziehe mich sofort zurück sobald es zu schnell geht.
    Die sexuellen Übergriffe sind auch etwas was ich so erlebt habe und dies umso mehr verstärkt nicht Sex zu haben, sondern es als negatives Erlebnis abzuwerten.

    You had me right up to the end. How are you going to advocate for men to have a more open and healthy relationship with themselves, their masculinity, and their sexuality, and then go and make a tasteless gay joke? Are you that unaware?

    Nice video Mario. For me, it’s important to listen to my body, to check in with him and acknowledge how he’s feeling, and also to give him compliments, reassurance, love and friendship. It took me many years to learn that our minds and bodies are separate beings and they have different way of communicating and asserting themselves.

    I’m a gay man who didn’t lose my virginity till I was 31. I was assaulted 2 times in my teenage years. I didn’t fully explore the sexuality spectrum other than being gay. After going through therapy and exploring the conditions that I needed to trigger being intimate with someone. Long story short, I discovered I’m demisexual and submissive. I need to know someone on a friendship level, and they have to trigger a primal impulse in me.

    I hate that your asexual experience was the result of trauma, but I am so glad you shared your very valid experience with it. Your statement of "outsourcing your sexuality" hit such a cord with me as a homo-aesthetic asexual man, It is very much what I did (in a much smaller way) with my cosplay and my own photoshoots. Thank you for bringing visibility not only to your horrible experience and trauma, but to the asexual community as well.

    This is such great wisdom, thank you for sharing and being vulnerable. I identify a lot with your story and message, having experienced similar things in my adolescence (pool jet romance included!) Kudos for you for doing the work to heal your traumas so young in life. It took me until my late 50’s to arrive here, but better late than never. I hope your message inspires a generation of young people to uncover their traumas and do the healing work. There was no internet or TH-cam yet when I was in my early 20’s!

    Real life sucks. The same thing happens to many of us. Anxiety associated with sex has many causes and triggers. It can really mess with your head. In an overly religious and repressed culture like in the USA i grew up in, you cannot or could not talk about it with anyone. In my case, add to that I was the gay son of a military officer. I was short and chubby and was picked on my whole life. Then add self hated based on religious training, never living in the same place for more than 3 years, always having to leave just as you are finally beginning to make friends, depression, feeling isolated, unworthy, lonely, afraid, trying to fit into unrealistic expectations, fear of being found out, and no solutions in sight, is it any wonder I even survived? Still struggling even after therapy.

    😢 wow Mario, so relatable. I've also been raped and didn't have sex for 5 years as well. Like you I was too ashamed to think of it as rape but it's affected my intimacy with every relationship since. As a gay twink I've been sexualized my whole young life to the point I only see guys as only wanting sex which makes me not want to. You expressed yourself perfectly, I hope you continue to heal. ❤

    Hi Mario, loooong time no see you! I started watching your videos with the friend you used to film yourself with when you were with lots of castings and shootings, I learned A LOT from you. I was a secret fan. Straight, not working on myself, my job was completely the opposite of what I wanted... everything changed thanks to you. Now I'm gay, I do shootings and castings (like you did!) for a living, I workout a lot, and take care of myself, in every way. I always wanted to feel and look like you (in a nice way!) I experienced something similar to you regarding my sexuality. Completely asexual for 5 years due to pressure and society. Thanks a lot for everything you have taught me.
    PS: I also learned to BEST WAY to make your lashes grow, the transparent mascara, LOOOOVE IT.

    Mario OMG I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! You’re so adorable and amazing and so open! It is crazy how you have lost your accent a bit but it’s cute.
    My partner of 20 years has somewhat of the same problem, he had a traumatic experience in his youth and he has never really been intimate but he loves me and I do him. It’s ok because I understand why.
    I wish I could meet you because you just need the biggest hug and to hear someone say that you are going to always be ok that things will always be ok.
    GAYEST VID OMG LOL be gay for a few minutes it’s ok because it makes you more attractive to be sensitive. Nothing hotter for a straight guy than for him to be in touch with his emotions and to be open about his life.
    Keep on being you and never change! You’re a wonderful person and you have a wonderful soul!

    I'm 44 in a few weeks, and I've had sex once, and that was enough for me. I think it confirmed what I already assumed about myself, but I guess I needed an experience so that I was sure.
    I was suicidal for two years after and never ever wanted to feel that way again.

      Yeah, I'm pretty sure the gay community would prefer people stop using the word "Gay" as a meaning of stupidity, regrettfulness, or just something bad in general. I lost a friend 15 years ago at a gym class we were in when I said this.Move that the structures made us do with the bar bell was gay. She never spoke to me again, and I've never used that word in that way since.

    I’m glad you’ve came to terms with your sexuality and are able to share. That being said… you really upset me when you said “this is the gayest video…” I’m sorry but that something I had to have come to Jesus meetings with my students. It’s using the word gay in a negative connotation. I asked my Mexican students, “How would it make you feel something bad happened and someone says ‘That’s so beaner’?” My straight students, “That’s so breeder”. My black students, “that so “N” word. My Asian students, “that’s so rice pattie”. All of these are examples of things each of us had to fight over the years. Now everyone has came back with the word “Queer”, which we had to fight hard for that not to be used and acceptable. Please think about it, ok? Love ya.

    I use to work as a model. But putting that to one side. I kind of fell across you and your words. Your experience. The word "performance anxiety". There are so many parallels. Including rape and confused regrets because if being nieve and all you have said has really helped me. You are not gay, I am. But the regrets are the same and the historical trauma has caused my present issues. So thank you thank you for making me feel less alone, less of a failure. Lots of work to do. 👍

  • @alexviolett

    thank you so much for speaking out about that horrible situation. I feel like men don't get enough support in these situations, even though assaulting anybody is equally disgusting, no matter the gender. stay strong and healing will come!
    recently I was watching a video about sexuality, and the expert there said something that really clicked with em. she basically said we were lied when we were told that sex is a physiological need, which is not true. if a physiological need is not satisfied, a human will die. but nobody will die because of not having sex. so sex is actually a psychological necessity, which means we should treat it as such. like it is just a very specific form of communication between people and has a far greater impact on our psyche than our body as such (with obvious exceptions). it was the most fascinating fact that I learned about this topic. I also had huge gaps of no sex in between relationships, but that never made me feel insecure. I am much more scared of meeting the wrong people and getting STDs than not having sex, to be honest. and that never made me think I was asexual, because I know I am not.
