So these guys are straight, but they're also so Broke and hard-up for cash that they'll do anything to get it? Even if that means having gay sex on camera? That's the premise behind this site, BrokeStriaghtBoys.com, where you'll find more than 33+ video episodes of hardcore sex acts between "straight" men. I'm not going to lie and say that at least some of these guys look to be a shade fruity, but it's all about fantasy anyway right? The price of admission is set a little high at almost $30 bucks per month, but you do get access to another 2+ sites here as a part of the Bonus Boy Sites Network and updates can be expected once per week.
The Good:
- Multi-site access never hurts. Besides that, this is exclusive content of "straight" boys having sex, making it look painful and pleasurable all at once. Consistent updates are a nice touch, too. They give lengthy scene set-ups/descriptions, which really plays into the whole theme of the site. They start the guys off small, grabbing each other's dicks and whatnot, before engaging them in blindfolded blowjobs, circle jerks, ass play and then full-on anal.
- Download options are a plenty here. Each episode can be played in full or as a series of clips in 3 media types: WMV, QuickTime, and Real Media. You also have quality choices ranging from as low as 112k and up to 1000k.
- Quality looks good, too. With the 1000k streams, I think most will be happy with the end result. Images are good quality, too, although they're on the small side.
The Bad:
- This is still a somewhat small site for a large price. And even though the 2+ bonus sites help, it's also hard not to point out that it's a part of a small Network, too.
- Image size could be larger, but that's me being real nit-picky because it's clearly about the videos here anyway.
- Site design and navigation could use some work. Getting back and forth between the main members homepage and the content is a nightmare and episodes are simply listed 4 to a page in chronological order. There is no model index and no categories/search features either.
The Conclusion:
In the end I think that Broke Straight Boys is a great premise for a site and the execution of the content is nicely done here. They also did a great job at offering choices when it comes to download & streaming the video content. Now only if they could add some more options in the design and navigation; that would be great. Updates are only once per week for a new episode (vids and pics), but at least they're consistent. Multi-site access will help keep you occupied in the downtime and the nice quality is pleasing as well. Yes, the price is a little high for what's offered, but I think that as the site & Network continues to grow, so will my fondness for this site since it offers something a little different from your typical gay boy site. I would really love to see at least a model index offered, however.

Review: 09-13-07 |
I remember this site. It's hard to forget a site that advertises straight men having gay sex for cash. It's been about 10 months and the members area has grown to include more than 115+ video episodes thanks to consistent twice weekly updates. It's hard to imagine that they can find that many dudes have sex for cash, but wow, money really talks! It also looks like they've starting adding more episodes per page so there's not so much back and forth going on. I can definitely appreciate this but I was still left longing for a model index of sorts. When it comes to quality, it doesn't look like much has changed, but overall I'm happy with the consistent updates and entertaining content.
Score increased from 77.5 to 80.0.
