Gay Men’s Perceptions of Disgust Towards Their Social Group
Over the past two decades, research has consistently reported a relationship between the emotion of disgust and homonegativity toward gay men. Yet these investigations have focused exclusively on heterosexual individuals’ perceptions of the emotion, leaving gay men’s own perspectives on disgust directed toward their social group unconsidered. The present online qualitative study addressed this gap by examining how exclusively gay men residing in …
Gay Pornography Stars and Criminal Risk
Anti-pornography advocates have asserted that the pornography industry is dangerous and increases performers' vulnerability to criminal outcomes such as prostitution, theft, fraud, and substance use. This narrative is often non-empirical, grounded in anecdotal accounts of limited generalizability. Thus, the goal of the current study is to quantitatively examine the porn-crime link using a publicly available database entitled Porn Star Mugshots. F…

A Meta-Analytic Review of the Association Between Disgust and Prejudice Toward Gay Men
A sizeable number of studies have documented a relationship between heterosexual persons’ experience of disgust (measured as an individual difference variable or induced experimentally) and prejudice toward gay men (i.e., homonegativity). Yet, to date, no one has attempted to meta-analytically review this corpus of research. We address this gap by conducting a meta-analysis of published and unpublished work examining heterosexual men and women’s …
Accurately Assessing Gay Men’s Erectile Functioning
The International Index of Erectile Functioning (IIEF) has been widely used to measure gay men's erectile functioning. However, the IIEF was initially developed using a sample of men whose sexual orientation was unspecified. Using scales not validated for specific populations can result in inaccurate assessments. The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the dimensionality, reliability, and validity of the IIEF with a large sample of gay m…

Understanding the believability and erotic value of ‘heterosexual’ men in gay pornography
Gay pornography has traditionally utilized male performers who are coded as ‘heterosexual’ (e.g. stating they are straight) to perform gay sexual acts. However, research has yet to examine gay men’s perceptions of ‘straight’ men in sexually explicit material (SEM). The current article evaluates the perceived believability and erotic value of variables used to code a male performer as ‘heterosexual’ in gay SEM. In a first study, which was explorat…
We're Disgusted With Queers, not Fearful of Them
Using a combination of personal reflections, published literature, and original empirical research, we argue that the disgust triggered by gay men's sexual practices (specifically, anal intercourse) is a critical, though overlooked, contributor to heterosexual men and women's homonegativity (i.e., negative attitudes and behaviors directed toward men who are or are perceived to be gay). We conclude our article by articulating several directions fo…
Sexercising our opinion on porn
A variety of pressing questions on the current topics and trends in gay male pornography were sent out to the contributors of this special issue. The answers provided were then collated into a ‘virtual’ discussion. In a brief concluding section, the contributors’ answers are reflected upon holistically in the hopes of shedding light on the changing face of gay male pornography
The Association Between Gay Men's Stereotypic Beliefs About Drag Queens and Their Endorsement of Hypermasculinity
To date, few researchers have investigated gay men's stereotypic beliefs about drag queens and the association between these beliefs and individual difference variables such as hypermasculinity. To address this omission, 118 men self-identifying as non-heterosexual completed an online survey consisting of an adjective checklist about drag queens and a psychometrically sound indicant of hypermasculinity. As predicted, participants who were more li…
