I know this is off topic: Your smile, face and that luscious, manly hairy chest are so sexy. Now back to the topic: Anyone who is not a social media star (such as Keven) who has time to post about their travels, restaurant meals, partying, workouts, etc. has waaay too much time on their hands. Think about it. Posts about one's travels, partying, restaurant meals, gym workouts, etc. is a real "Look at me everyone! Look how cool I am!" type (which is not my type). A non "public" figure who is constantly posting on social media seems like the type where it's all about that person. Who cares?!?? If it's a *public" figure I find interesting, then I get it. But for friends, it's sooo cringe. UGH 🤢🤮

I like that you’re taking us on the journey of branding yourself and sharing glimpses into your approach. A number of guys out here can apply these techniques in our lives.

It’s *NEVER* simply racism/white supremacy with you people is it? Please stick to *WHITE* men.

Antonio Biaggi called you Papi. 😎

You better open and close those eyes slowly bro.

Antonio is a renaissance man. He’s manifesting beauty across a spectrum of media.

Keven, it’s just so great to see handsome men smiling at each other. It really brightens my day.

He didn’t mention it in this interview, but Cliff is also a great cook. I think he’s professionally trained. There are many talents in that sexy and textured man.

Hmm. Interesting.

It’s impressive that nearly 1 out of 3 of Vic’s models actually seek him out.

Good job highlighting the fantasy aspect of porn for models. I never considered that many men would like to be a porn model as an adventure.

Biggest irk for me, when he talks about his mother every other 3/4 sentences. Hes 40 and wont move from his mothers basement! So done.

Wow that’s a great point that Vic shared about the power of just being comfortable talking to guys.

I like that Vic doesn’t require that his models be gay. It’s just great to see men be sexual with each other and really enjoy great BJs.

I take exception to people who set up a dinner and then cancel on the day it’s supposed to happen.

A lot of people use prep this way. Not a great plan. My lover and I have lost friends to AIDS over the years. I met my lover when I was 19. Have been in a committed relationship with him for 56 years. Way before the AIDS outbreak.

why wont anyone ever asks him how much he pays? and I wanna know more backstory on some of the guys. thank you for this im literally at work watching.

Good job highlighting the value of empathy in adult entertainment production.

I love this song! Chante Moore…

Do you feel like the guys on Grindr are more intention based then bumble or tinder? Like more likely to follow through on a hook up?

Same, but in reverse. I followed someone on X (Twitter) because I liked their take on economics and philosophy, then I discovered their Alts and, woo boy, the bloom was off the rose.

Looking good with or without the smile. ❤

Thx Kev. I enjoyed watching u 😂

Guys who don't make passes at you but instead deflect saying, "You're clearly perfect. So, what's your problem?" Why is my what? How entitled? It makes me feel like the basic short answer to that is: "Clearly, you are the problem. I'm dealing with passive-aggressive flakes like you in my dating world. Why don't you diagnose your own problem? I'm standing here waiting for Mr. Right and you walk up, out of sheer attraction, only to encourage me to fix something irrelevant instead. You could've just made a pass at the me, the right way, the first time. But no, we're arguing instead. Good job. Some dating IQ you've got. Move on!" Thank your lucky stars if you've never had to deal with these guys. They're very annoying.

The debate served a huge purpose. To show the distracted 🐑 🐑 the reality of the situation. Finally the only unedited footage that people saw. How did it get to this point?

It's all a circus is the bottomline!

I hate texting, however, the slow response from the other person definitely irks me.

I meet a lot of guys who don't wash their hands.

I hate guys who shave their pubes.Total turn off.

He was probably a "straight" married person who got on grinder to have a clandestine hook-up and fulfill a fantasy he had but then got cold feet at the last minute and backed out.

I struggle with gents who resist dialogue. Having to draw someone out becomes tiresome.! Expect to be gradually forthcoming and anyone going on a date should equally revealing so both parties can decide whether or not to proceed further.

There are no perfect people and certainly no perfect gay men. You will always find something that irks or annoys you... CUT PEOPLE SOME SLACK. Intelligence is valued by gay men but it becomes a liability if you are overly analytical, which may lead to their concluding you are "too high maintenance".

When your date doesn't seem to care about you or has low emotional intelligence. i.e., When you're having a bad day (or week) and you open up to your date about it, and they "shrug it off" or keep talking about their own thing. I usually keep the conversation going, but I do get annoyed.

They talk about only themselves and hygiene

I hope you talk about Project 2025

Your methodology is flawed. You actually look better when smiling.

That is NOT a "petty" pet peeve. LOL ❤❤❤

Hey Keven, I just saw a KZfaq video about a guy who almost found himself in a Dahmer situation by going to some random guy's house where the hook-up left the front door unlocked and the vlogger just walked into a dark apartment. Fortunately, the vlogger eventually got away. But it made me worry about a nice, handsome guy like you who loves going on Grindr dates. I think you should always, always, always meet the dude for coffee or something in public and suss out the Grindr date in person. I remember thinking in college: How did this person get accepted? Without an interview process, all the Admissions folks can go on are transcripts, a single recommendation letter and test scores. An Admission officer can't tell based on just that negligible info whether a person seems "off." Same thing with a Grindr date. I just got a terrible feeling after watching this guy's Grindr date horror story about your safety and well being when you go on all these basically anonymous Grindr sex hook-up "dates." Telling a friend where you're going doesn't help if the police find you 3 days later, ya know?!?? Too late at that point!! I can't believe how stupid and reckless and just plain lucky I was in my 20s. What was I thinking??? Please be very careful in Miami, Keven!! ❤❤❤ From One Of Your Biggest Fans In Chicago

Great job demonstrating what self care looks and sounds like.

Nice boy ❤

Have a nice life according to your needs and abilities.

When you want a burger, you don't go to KFC. Grindr and Christian Mingle are not the same menu. A person may have a profile on Grindr where they are hunting for fun and NSA sex but are also searching for a real multi-dimensional settle down relationship on Christian Mingle. The advertisement you would use on CM looking for a soul mate is not the same advertisement you would use on Grindr looking for a quickie in the next 15 minutes.

Oh, and check out “Fragile”, better than the two we are talking about . Many artists have done their own rendition. Including opera singers and philharmonic orchestras.

His debut album and sophomore album back in the 80s (although I don’t think you were born, yet) were hot supernova sun good. “Dreams of the blue turtle” (a mix all genres: jazz, rock, ballads), and “nothing like the sun” (recorded in Spanish and Portuguese on the EP version).

No smiling on Grindr. Its there so you can get railed and railed only

Worries about the cheeks when smiling. Do you not listening to yourself sometime and think how stupid this is? It's this superficiality what makes you very unattractive to me, not the cheeks.

How can anybody take a risk and play Russian Roulette with their lives, by hooking up with numerous of strange men for sex, and don't know who they really are inside? They could be serial killers and rapists targeting gay men to robbed, seriously assaulted or worst of all, being killed as hate crimes. It happens all the time! Is sex really worth it to them that much? It doesn't matter how handsome a man may be because, good-looking men are a dime a dozen. They're everywhere! So being good-looking is nothing special. It's an extremely dangerous situation because there are a lot of evil psychopaths in the world, that's preying on their next victim. People are being so cavalier, careless and making videos about it like it's nothing. It makes me furious not because they're gay men, it's because of their carelessness who don't value their lives.

Shirtless torso gets me more messages than just using my face ever did. It didn’t matter if I smiled or not everyone hates a black guy on Grindr. But if you’re an attractive guy like Keven you can get away with just using face picture. Must be nice

Here's my guess...so, I've heard a few men tell me of similar experiences that they've had; and in each case, it was because the man was expecting a slightly more masculine man, and the man that they met up with instantly went off them, because they were more feminine (in their voice and mannerisms) than they were expecting. I've heard this so many times, that I suspect that's what the 'issue' was for him. Personally, I don't think it's a big deal, but a lot of men (in the gay community) are fixated on that ('masc4masc', 'straight-acting', etc). It's okay to have a preference, but he could've been a little nicer about it (or expressed his preference, before you met). I could always be wrong, but that's my guess, as to what was going through his mind (not that it matters).
