Like Em Straight Review

Porn producer Brendon Marley loves straight cock and, even more, he loves turning straight guys gay - at least for the 20 or 30 minutes it takes them to blow their loads on camera. Since 2003, he's been finding straight guys and convincing them to get naked on camera for their first times. Some guys are masturbators only, while others let Brendon stroke or suck their cocks, and others go even further than that. It been a while since our last review, so let's get inside for a fresh look.

The performers are white regular-guy types, some smooth and others furry with unshaven pubes and hairy chests; some have a blue-collar look, and others are rough and covered with tattoos. I think Brendan likes inked guys because there are a lot of them, but there are enough without tats if you're not a fan. Many of the amateurs here are in their twenties or thirties, some are smooth-shaven while others have beards. You'll find dicks in all sizes from average to large, and most of the cocks here are cut. Looks vary, so you'll find plenty of average guys, some are handsome and others cute, and a few might make you nervous if they came up behind you in a dark parking lot.

There's some discussion in the comments about whether these dudes are really straight. It's quite common for gay porn sites to have gay guys pretending to be straight, but I think more of the guys on Like 'em Straight  are the real deal. A lot of times, long after filming their first scene, a lot of those so-called straight guys start showing up regularly in gay porn, but I'm not finding that to be the case with this site. In fact, most of these guys film a scene or two and then disappear. But some like the money and come back for repeat scenes - one guy has filmed nine!

The kind of action that happens in a scene depends on the guy. Many start out with an interview where Brendon asks them the basics, then he gets down to their turn-ons. The guy gets his cock hard, sometimes through his pants or underwear. Some of the amateurs are so horny they let Brendon stroke or suck their cocks, others are paired with a buddy and are willing not only to trade handjobs and get sucked, but some also fuck the other guy on camera. But some guys aren't willing to let another man touch them at all, so they jerk off after their interview. There's also a four-part series called "My Husband Sucks" where a male/female married couple into swinging hook up with a second guy and get it on with a new guy in each episode.

There are several ways to enjoy the site. You can join, and as a member you get unlimited streaming, plus a limited number of downloads per day. You don't have to join; you can use credits to either download the videos of your choice or pay to watch by the minute, and the credits never expire. You can also sign up for a free membership and watch unlimited trailers or just browse the tour without a free membership and get access to ten trailers.

Like 'em Straight offers 719 exclusive, DRM-free videos The newer downloads are sized at 1280x720 at good amateur quality while the older downloads come in at 640x480 at fair to good amateur quality. If you prefer to stream, the video player is sized at 980x552, and it appears as a pop-up. The newer vids look pretty good when enlarged to full screen, but I wouldn't recommend enlarging the oldest videos. To be fair, considering the oldest videos are almost 17 years old, they look pretty decent. Videos are mobile compatible and I had no problems playing them on my Android phone and tablet. Please note that we could only successfully download the videos in Firefox; downloads didn't work for my editor or me in Chrome.

Each video comes with a set of pictures. These are screencaps sized at 800x533, the newer pics are good amateur quality and the oldest average or a little better. You can save pics individually by right-clicking a thumb and saving link as, or you can save entire sets in zip files; while there are no slideshows, you can easily navigate from pic to pic using the viewer's forward and back buttons.

Like 'em Straight members also get access to Brendan's Basement, a bonus site offering access to a gay porn DVD archive that offers streaming videos in wide variety of niches including bareback, big dick, fratboys, cops, twinks, interracial action, and lots more porn categories. You'll find titles like "Bareback Summer," "Slurping Jizz," "Fuckin' Trash," "Swim Meat 5," and "He Fucked His Mechanic," and there's all sorts of guys from twinks to daddies.

There are some issues. The site has stopped updating and probably recycles updates to keep the homepage looking fresh. Trial members can stream but not download the videos till their trial converts to a full membership. We found that the videos could only be downloaded using Firefox; in Chrome, when you click to download, nothing happens but one video is removed from your daily download limit. So if you have trouble, use the Firefox browser for downloads. If you're browsing the tour you can watch a maximum of ten video trailers unless you sign up for a free account, then you can watch unlimited trailers. The older videos are smaller and the quality isn't as good as I'd like to see, but the newer videos are pretty good.

There's a daily download limit of six scene per 24 hours. That means if you downloaded six vids every day of your 30-day membership, you could download 180 videos. These downloads don't rollover to the following day, so if you don't use them you lose them. If you're unsure of where you stand, look at the top right in the members area under the search bar.

Like 'em Straight offers real straight amateurs including lots of first-timers. There's some helping-hand and dick-sucking action, although some guys prefer to go solo, and there are others who go gay-for-pay and fuck other guys for the first time, or in some cases, their second or third times. There are 719 exclusive videos for members to download, stream, and watch on most mobiles, although those who prefer can pay to download or stream without joining, and while the site has stopped adding new content, there's still enough to keep you busy. I enjoyed watching these straight guys giving it up and getting off on camera.
