[floatl][/floatl] Pitcher Seeks Forgiveness for Porn Tape
Associated Press / Tue, Jan. 27, 2004
CLEVELAND - Indians minor leaguer Kazuhito Tadano is asking for forgiveness for what he called a one-time mistake - his appearance in a gay porn video in which he engaged in a homosexual act.
Tadano took part in the video three years ago when he was a college studen..."All of us have made mistakes in our lives," Tadano said, reading a statement in English. "Hopefully, you learn from them and move on."
Shunned by Japanese baseball teams, the 23-year-old Tadano signed with the Indians last March.

'I'm Not Gay Baseball's Porno Star Pitcher Says365 Gay.com - Jan 28
... The pitcher said he engaged in gay sex in the film, shot while he was still a college student in his native Japan, but is not gay and only "did it because he needed the money"...."This kid didn't assault anybody. He didn't commit murder. If anything, he is guilty of being naive," said his agent, Alan Nero.

sick.

I'd remove the "s" from that statement if I wasn't afraid of turning this thread into a 9-pager.

How can he say that he is not gay if he chose to appear in a gay porn film? Who is going to believe that?

My take on one reason he went to the Indians? More sexual freedom (certainly more tolerance and acceptance of homosexuality) in the US than in Japan.

"You can fuck a man and not be gay, but if you suck one cock you'll be a cock sucker for the rest of your life." Or I think that's how that quote goes..

Maybe he was "experimenting?" That reason is easily accepted from women who "dabble" in homosexuality, so why not from guys? What if he really did just do it for the money and didn't think it was such a big deal?

(Yes, I do know what kind of can o' worms this post is likely to unleash.)

No isn't it....

"A young couple on holidays in the greek islands when they meet an old guy walking along the street... they get to talking and then they ask him his name..

'My name!! my name!!! Do you see that wall running along the side of the hill? I built that wall. But do people call me Con the wall builder? NO!!!

Do you see that vineyard on the side of the hill? That is my vineyard where I grow wonderful grapes that I make into wine. But do people call me Con the wine maker? NO, NO, NO!!

But you fuck one goat......"

Or something like that...

I'm not gay...I just blew a guy for money (and let someone tape it)because I was a naive college student. No problem pickle puffer. We all make mistakes. I'm sure many of us have done the same thing. Lighten up. It's the 90's.

Was he the pitcher or the catcher?
Double Play?
In the park homer?
Some chin music?
Did he choke up?

I'm thinking way too hard about this....

[American Oyaji]

Jay Leno lambasted this guy last night. He was the running gag through most of the monologue.

You know Taro, I often wonder how you find stories. But in this particular case, I do not want to know. Don't ask, don't tell.

ok, this is a personal decision he made that hurt no one, be it straight porn, gay porn, porn with midgets and goats or what have you.

i completely fail to see the reason why it's something for which he needs to ask forgiveness.

Goats? He better not be messing with goats with out authorization. You're talking about a highly specialized and protected field of activity when you get into that area!
That's straight from the BMFWICOG!

I'm positive I'll regret this, but "BMFWICOG"?

I agree, but maybe he was asked to (by the coach/pr dept..?) in order to appease those fans and teams-members with more conservative points of view on such matters (gayness & any variety of porn)]FXdXzLMv-iA[/yt]

Sounds like the good General should make up his mind... whether to swallow or spit that last wad out!

a sad state of affairs indeed. peronsally i've always been of the opinion "the best man / woman for the job". what a person does in his or her personal life with other consenting adults should be completely irrelevant as long as it's not impacting their job performance.

All of the sudden, the mrhands.mpg video came to mind.

yeah it's a shame there are so many people out there who (1) feel it's okay to drop [size=-1]21000lb bombs in far off lands, [/size](2) but just don't want queers doing it on their behalf...

You're probably right in the first sense, but at the last of your statement is the damning point. "impacting on the job".

The people who find the concept of homosexuality revolting, whether it is their true personal belief, or they got some KY jelly fears hidden in their own closet, are the ones that have their job impacted upon and effected. Consequently, because of these beliefs, they aren't going to want to share a fox hole (or any other hole. for that matter) with someone who is openly gay.

Whether one is for, or against the "don't ask, don't tell" policy of the military, I would think that it would behoove those from the gay movements to just accept it as it is, because if they push the military in to reviewing it, or changing it, it will probably be deleted as a policy, which would probably revert it back to days when homosexuality was not allowed in any form. They are better of with the status quo on this issue.

I think that it's along way off, if ever, until we will see them openly allow gays in the military.
