The symbolism of the heterosexual male is clear in the use of 'daddies' and 'muscle men', this is the use of masculine males in the form of alpha males who take advantage of young teenaged looking homosexual males.
By placing the twink in a position of worshipping the alpha male, the homosexual male is placed where society wants him to be, less than the heterosexual male and submissive to him.
Another common theme in gay pornography is the use of college or fraternity boys, this is not a strict gay portrayal but one of young athletic men who compete against each other in some form of challenge. The loser is made submissive to the other males who are portrayed as superior for having beaten him.

In terms of explicit exploitation, well known gay porn websites such as Broke Straight Boys are an attempt to try and coerce males in financial hardship to put a price on how much they would be willing to sell their sexuality for and perform gay sex acts or more commonly have sex acts performed on them.
Once again this also ties into the issue of the gay men being portrayed as wanting to make themselves submissive to the heterosexual male to pleasure and worship him.
This example shows how the porn lobby is trying to pull the wool over peoples eyes; the truth is you cannot have exploitation in the name of liberalism.
It is not a fair argument to argue the right to seek sexual gratification through taking advantage of and coercing those who are financially desperate, this is something which robs another a person of their human rights and dignity.
Currently there is no critical examination of porn in the gay male community, this debate must be had and the question needs to be asked; how many homosexual males are viewing explicit material and being coerced into a false sense of what is expected of them?
The other concerning factor is how explicit gay pornography impacts a young homosexual males formation of his sexuality and will the viewing of such material condition him to a view that he is less masculine and subordinate to the heterosexual male?
