We've always suspected today's top porn makers live in the same apartment complex. One look at the showers strike an eerily similar chord. Here's where today's men get soaped up for sex.
In the olden days, porns had bathtubs, curtains and those one-person, enclosed frosted glass showers, like in this photo of Steve Hammond's ass in Falcon's Touch Me. Now, at some secret porn coven probably held in the dungeon of a West Hollywood apartment, a decree must have been released signaling the new Guidelines for the Gay Porn Shower. A look at several of today's studios proves it.
Rule 1: Multiple Angles and No Ceiling
You can never peek into the shower only through the entrance. As Steven Daigle and Tyler Torro demonstrate, the shower must be easily viewable from any corner of the bathroom. Also, no top—the better to reach the camera over with, my dear.
Rule 2: Huge Clear Glass Doors
In the old days, there was the thrill of a silhouette, with only occasional flesh pressing against the glass. Not any more. Now shower doors are like glass cages at the San Diego Zoo. Huge and almost invisible to make it feel like nothing separates man from beast.
Rule 3: Walls of Stone
All-white or colored ceramic tiles are bye-bye. Now, it's faux wilderness with stone or classic with mock marble. These filmmakers must have the same club card to Home Depot.
Rule 4: Shower Must Substitute for Clown Car
If your shower can only hold two men comfortably, no pornstar will be stepping in there! Now showers have to be as big as Carrie Bradshaw's walk-in shoe closet. We only see showers this spacious in the handicap stall at the gym. We've come a long way since Steve Hammond's bubble booty, baby.
