Austin Martin - 6'4 Trainer

I'd say queerbaiting is when a straight guy deliberately 'baits' the queers with false promises because he has something to get out of this audience (= money)
no sweetheart queerbaiting is him promoting and trying to sell that he’s interested in doing stuff with other men when in fact that he doesn’t like what bhizzi and his friends do they give off the vibe that they do gay shit on the low and behind closed doors but they are just straight and trying to make more money promoting their OF and he’s done none of the that
 
How to tell everyone you don't know what queerbaiting is.
Since everyone in this thread seems confused - queerbaiting as a concept started with a trend of fictional media (TV shows, movies, books) implying through subtext that a character or characters are queer, to pull in or keep an audience who otherwise wouldn't engage with it. It's where the "bait" part comes from, it's a false promise. I personally do find issue with translating it to real people (people can be and are queer without telling others or even knowing it themselves) but that same concept can be applied. I'd say most OF models aren't queerbaiting - there are a few who will play "queer characters" in their videos but honestly that's a practice used in gay porn for a very long time. If you know they're straight and they've said they're straight, they're not queerbaiting you.

I agree with you for the most part. If guys are fully transparent about being straight it's one thing, but it's not rare for some straight men with OF (and some without even) to have full Tiktok's talking about being bottoms or having boyfriends or liking men more than women only for them to actually be straight and have girlfriends who are in on the grift. And then they have OF content without men or at best they're pantomiming sex with others, disguising women as if they were men, using dildos in disguise, deceptive angles and passing it off as real. We all know porn plots are fake and g4p guys exist in multitudes but the difference is they actually have the sex.

But also out of all the content creators out there for this conversation to be brought up in this thread is odd because Austin has not queer baited from what I've seen. He's kept his terms gender neutral afaik just to speak to a wider audience.
