The personified anti-stereotype: My German VICE magazine interview
During HustlaBall Berlin last weekend, reporter Ronny Matthes (shown with Dirk and me in the photo above) from VICE magazine‘s Berlin bureau approached me to ask me a few questions for an article he was writing about the event. I don’t speak a lick of German, so the interview was conducted in English, and then translated. Thanks to Google Translate — plus the help of my friend Troy Webb, who speaks fluent German — I’m posting my best interpretation of my portion of the article below. I have to say, though, I’m rather tickled by the following phrase: “Jesse Jackman is the personified anti-stereotype of a porn star.”

“It’s such an honor to be here” won’t make it into the Olympus of coherent sentences, but the complete opposite is also possible. Jesse Jackman is the personified anti-stereotype of a porn star. When I met Jesse — who was there with his husband Dirk Caber — we had an intellectual discussion about HIV prevention and sexual ethics in the midst of dozens of drunken, celebrating men who were popping ecstasy tabs into their mouths. “I have a degree in Japanese and another in computer science,” Jesse recounted. He also likes classical music (he plays piano) and blogs for the Huffington Post about politics, art, and issues of personal importance.
But what was Jesse’s answer to this crucial question: Top or Bottom? “I do both. But in the porn industry, I bottom more, because I think there is a demand for bigger, more muscular guys who do.” In fact, Jesse is quite large [1.85 m, or 6′ 1″] compared to other performers. So far I haven’t seen a professional here of more than about 1.70 m (5′ 6″), coming up only to my shoulder. At 42 years old, Jesse is also older than the average porn star. But he isn’t planning on retiring anytime soon. “I’m doing this as long as I enjoy it,” he said, “and there’s no end in sight.”
We (your fans) keep telling you Jesse that you are AWESOME! Never a doubt about that!
