Apparently, the picture above is too hot for Facebook. Titan Men exclusive porn star Jesse Jackman posted the photo of himself kissing his husband, Dirk Caber on his Facebook page. The result? He received multiple death threats, complaints from Christians, Facebook removed his picture (because it violates their community standards.) and banned him for 12 hours.
You can read more detail about this on Joe Spunk Blog.
I was going to suggest that gay men cancel their Facebook pages en masse. But here’s far better way protest Facebook’s unequal application of their “community standards”: Grab your camera, then embrace your man and kiss him, and take a picture; then post it on your Facebook page. Jackman’s final word: “This is a travesty. Hate must not be allowed to prevail in this world.”
Please guys, grab your cameras and get those pictures up on Facebook and make sure you tweet them, too, with the hashtag #FacebookKissOff

It’s not a travesty at all, it is at most an overreaction. God, what a pair of drama queens. I’ll tell you exactly what happened: Some homophobic right-wing cunt reported the picture as inappropriate. The Facebook automated system shut down the page TEMPORARILY to give the actual humans who work there time to check, and when they do, they will realise it’s not inappropriate at all, it was just someone being a homophobic right-wing cunt, and the page will be reinstated. Calling for a boycott of one of the most gay-friendly companies on the planet because of an automated system that is legally required to be in place is hysterical bullshit.
Anderson says
remedy: leave Facebook!
kevin says
The photo looks like a straight guy dare. Ugh, Facebook…
Jordi Lim says
Someone maybe got envious on them I believed facebook wouldnt do it if there wasn’t any complaint..not all Christian are like that as a gay Catholic myself. But maybe it was reported by the super anti-gay BORN AGAIN Christian coz me too was a victim of its bitchiness.
Jordi Lim says
Happy for Jesse and Dirk. Please continue loving each other. It’s SO BEAUTIFUL.
gnormie says
If it didn’t have the logo of a gay porn studio on it the picture probably wouldn’t have been banned…
jim says
ITs NOT FACEBOOK ITS THE OTHER PEOPLE WHO GAVE NEGATIVE REMARKS
Sometimes so many negative feedbacks recorded and reported to an IT specialist or department will be stopped until someone goes and reviews the claim.
So not trying to defend anyone, but if it received multiple negative remarks it might have automatically told the bot to temporally shut the link down until it is reviewed.
The Other Devin says
I agree, EdWoody. I’m not about to go sit-in at Facebook headquarters over this. It’s not that deep.
Peter says
Facebook is a piece-of-shit site anyway. Post the photo of you kissing your boyfriend/husband then leave that crappy site to the morons who troll it.
lolz says
There is a titanmen logo in the shot-it has nothing to do with the kiss or gay men in the picture.
Facebook doesn’t use copyrighted images.
Of course, no one seems to pick up on this…dummies.
alex says
Don’t have a Facebook account — and don’t want one. But could the pic have been deleted because they are porn stars?
Benj says
It may also be because he posted the name of the troll — it’s happened to other celebs who call out assholes and idiots by name.
Nonetheless, FB’s photo banning is pretty arbitrary as well.
litper says
The wouldn’t delete if it was vagina pic. What a bunch of homophobes!
Jay says
I’m honestly surprised people still even like Facebook. Knowing how people are with wanting new things, it seems FB would have been passe long before now. However, it does make me happy that the photo pissed people off!
Willie says
Don’t use Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIin. Their agreements aren’t good enough. Check their terms of service. You are better than that.
Peter says
@EdWoody is correct. I work at Facebook. This is standard protocol when users register complaints. And yes, there are MANY, MANY gays at FB. Can’t get any gay friendlier for a big company.
MarcoManuel says
The real travesty is that these 2 men are married and have sex with other men in porn.They most likely have sex with men outside porn as well.
So much gay men doesnt take marriage seriously.
EdWoody says
@MarcoManuel: You don’t get to decide for them what their marriage is.
JR says
Why are these complaining Christians looking at a gay porn star’s facebook page anyway??
conked says
This confirms everything of porn stars – they are all useful idiots. Their inability to read and understand simple TOCs is galling. They play their victimhood card over and over, hoping that all out there will cry foul to anything that displeases them. What a bunch of pathetic drama queens.
manu says
Marcomanuel proposes a ban on married people in porn! 😀
Yeahhh something new every day .
Jenna Jameson is married too…Brings shame to all straight couples who are married.
STFU says
@MarcoManuel
When will you whiny, delusional, judgmental cunt finally shut up? Let other people do whatever they want. Care more about your own little, sad life and less about what other people do or say and you won’t have to judge others who most certainly do exactly what you dream about. Have more sex, spam less on pornsites. Thanks.
Jordi Lim says
What is galling in simple english?
balfo says
Never ever had a facebook account. Fuck u facebook, W the love!!!
litper says
Love is more than just sex attraction, people can love each other and still have open relationship. There’s nothing wrong with that!
Loreley says
@ Jordi Lim. Galling = irritating, humiliating ( ” A galling behavior…” )
Jordi Lim says
@Loreley Thank you, actually this is the first time I encountered that word.
