Twenty years ago this month, lovers and online pioneers put their vision in motion and opened the virtual doors to their world at Amateur Straight Guys. Though they were deeply in love with one another Doug and Jay shared a love for bedding straight guys. It was that fantasy that would inspire them to venture out and buy a camera and begin recruiting straight guys for their new business. The two were good at finding and convincing hot straight guys to strip down and throw caution to the wind while crossing over their sexual boundaries and experimenting with other guys.

The World Wide Web was much akin to the Wild Wild West at the time and they staked their claim in a genre that would dominate the gay online market place for the decades that would follow. In addition to my own site, Active Duty, which I had started two years earlier. the sites that catered to this genre and did it well could be probably be counted on one hand. The onslaught of similar sites would still be a couple of years away and Doug and Jay set out on their maiden voyage with their unique brand of seducing straight guys into doing not so straight things. Many of those sites we all know so well now like Sean Cody, Corbin Fisher, Broke Straight Boys and many others would owe it to the success of Amateur Straight Guys and its founders Doug and Jay for helping pave the way. They truly were visionaries ahead of the pack.

For the next 10 years ASG would thrive and become one of the most successful "gay-for-pay" sites on the Internet. In 2010 when I got word that Doug and Jay had parted ways and Amateur Straight Guys would either be sold or closed down I quickly stepped up and made an effort to save the legendary site from closing down. After all, I had been a big fan myself even though I had enjoyed enormous success with Active Duty and had solidified my own brand of straight military guys crossing the line and experimenting. Our guys may have been different but our concept was the same and it was a welcome distraction for me to enjoy someone else's work in addition to my own. Stepping up to save another pioneering site just seemed like the right thing to do.

The road ahead would be hard but worth the fight. A lot of things had to be resolved and even a lawsuit to be fought with some of Doug and Jay's former business relationships. I knew what I was in for before I signed on the dotted line and I was ready for the fight. Luckily the fight was successful and all things resolved.

When I sold my beloved baby Active Duty back in 2015 I decided to keep Amateur Straight Guys rather than include it in the deal. In 2018 we redesigned the site and relaunched the version you are on right now. Twenty years later ASG is still enjoying success and is alive and well. The hard work of Doug and Jay has been preserved and catalogued here for people like yourself to enjoy for many years to come.

The hunt for straight guys willing to step out of their comfort zone and try new things is still ongoing and there are several new things on the horizon here at ASG. In the coming weeks as we continue to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of ASG we will be introducing these new features to make it an even better site and a great experience for our members. Stick around. We're glad you're here. It's not every day that we get to personally enjoy legends but ASG is here going strong and ready for you to enjoy!
