Now that Simon Dexter—the Sean Cody performer formerly known as Harley—is a legit model, he thinks he's an artiste. He's pissed at photographer Dylan Rosser for posting his cock on a porny website and not somewhere tasteful.
Regardless, we're glad to see them. Simon agreed to take this series of full-frontal shots for Dylan Rosser ONLY if they would be in a classy, highbrow, artistic, family friendly coffee table book filled with hot naked men showing their throbbing shafts. Simon did NOT agree to have them posted on Dylan's website, The Male Form, because once on the internet, they cease becoming "nudes" and they suddenly become "porn."
Simon writes on his blog:
So last summer (over two years later) he contacted me again about shooting a coffee table book. I agreed and we shot for a very low rate because I wanted to be part of an artistic book. In the last few days, I have come to find out that these images (that were allegedly taken for a coffee table book) have been published by Dylan on his membership subscription porn website. This is a clear violation of our agreement and my trust and is HIGHLY UNPROFESSIONAL.
Simon demands Dylan remove them, then posts the pics on his blog with the scathing words: "WARNING!! SCAM: BEWARE OF DYLAN ROSSER." So, we get to see them anyway, kids!
We can concede that if a website spread is not in the contract, then Dylan should not have posted the photos. But just because the photos are online does not suddenly make them "porn." A look at Dylan's site shows that the majority of photos are "tasteful nudes," with very little fully erect cocks, masturbation and no explicit sexual acts.
However, let's call a spade a spade. A nekkid cock shot is a nekkid cock shot, and while Dylan's site isn't XXX, it's hardly Robert Mapplethrope in terms of artistic ambition. Simon's fooling himself in the diff between tasteful nudes and porn. Whether posted online or positioned on my coffee table next to Tom Bianchi's On the Couch, Stephen Sondheim's Finishing the Hat and a bottle of fine Italian wine, these photos are pure classy 100% jack-off material.
