James R.

We nearly had to call off this particular photoshoot.

Though we should have spotted the problem in advance.

When a boy applies to model for use, we send him some forms to fill out.  And we don't only want to know the size of his dick!  We also ask about his family (after all, maybe he's got cute brothers!) and we ask about his hobbies too.

But what we didn't spot until he pointed it out to us later was that under "hobbies" James had written down that he was very fond of animals.  So much so, in fact, that when he finishes college he intends becoming a veterinarian.

And there's the problem, because the very first thing that James spotted (pardon the pun) when he got to the HMBoys studio bedroom set was that fake leopardskin throw.

Now, we know that it's fake and, after we'd told him, James knew it was fake...  And you'd think that would have been enough. 

After all, you don't see those guys from PETA tossing red paint over fake fur, do you?

But that didn't stop James getting real pissed about the idea of posing on something that might even be mistaken for animal skin.  In fact, it was only when we promised to make it plain here that the throw wasn't real that the boy calmed down and let us get on with the shoot.

So, just to make it clear once and for all, we - and especially James - would like to assure all our members that NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THESE PICTURES.

Unless, that is, you count James himself.

Because, ironically enough, it turned out afterwards that he had some sort of allergy to the substance they use to manufacture faux fur and, for the next three days, he was off school until his very nasty rash went down!
