- First Impression
Who knew from the title HornyBoy.com that the site would be about boys who could suck themselves off? I didn't, but I'm glad it is, because the boy who can suck himself off is the luckiest boy in the world. Horny Boy even all but says that: "Those who can, do." Horny Boy even promises that it's not all just about auto-fellation. It's all forms of male autoerotica. Checking out the homepage before I sign in, I see men sucking themselves off, masturbating, or even fucking a watermelon (which, be honest with yourself, is kind of hot if you think about it). Don't worry, though. If you don't get off on watching guys get themselves off, there are also videos that feature hot man on man action, or so Horny Boy promises.
- Navigation
The site design is a bit wordy and confusing, like trying to read Proust. It's a lot of deep blues, some fiber optic lightning (what the hell?) and a crude cartoon drawing of a blonde kid in a backwards baseball cap about to suck himself off. The navigation is simple enough, but it the site design on a whole makes my head feel too fuzzy to properly navigate. A total site design overhaul would be greatly beneficial here. -
- Content
The guest home page tells you exactly what the site has to offer. There are over 220 videos, downloadable in WMV format, or available for online streaming using Flash; There are more than 350 image galleries offer over 30,000 images. The awesome thing about these image sets is that they're categorized before you even get to the galleries. There's an option for auto-fellatio, for twink studs playing alone, horny boys getting down and dirtyand boy on boy action. There's even a section specifically devoted just for screen caps from the videos, just in case you want to preview before you wait for the movies to download. This type of layout is like the Holy Grail of layouts; it's porn for the masses, like if Apple designed porn instead of computers...sadly, the videos are not arranged in this way and for that, the site loses some points. Continuing on with content, there's an option for streaming up to 12 feature length DVDs per month. Additionally, there's erotic fiction (which I personally like because I have a very vivid imagination), original gay cartoons and comics (have you ever noticed how arousing gay cartoons can be? I don't get it, but apparently my penis does), as well as video review and commentary. -
- Guys and Sex
The selection of guys at Horny Boy is quite diverse, ranging from skinny twinks to tattooed skater punks to nicely defined muscle men. This kind of diversity is a welcome change of pace from some websites that truck exclusively in one kind of body type. The sex, though, is a bit hit or miss. At some point--though you might not believe me--you're going to get tired of watching men suck themselves off or take their nicely packaged matters into their own hands, and that's mostly what this website has to offer. Occasionally there is man on man action, but it's a bit few and far between. This is another site that benefits mostly from people interested in one specific genre. If that's not your cup of tea, you'll have to move off the island. -
- Value
There aren't any extras by way of access to other websites or anything to that effect. The extras come to play in the aforementioned full-length DVD downloads that are available to members, up to 12 per month. There are three "theatres" to choose from, with each theatre offering four movies. These theatres are a bit niche-y, but in a broad manner: straight bait, twinks theatre and bisexual theatre. Additionally, you can check out that erotic literature and the "Horny Toons". -
- Bottom Line
HornyBoy.com offers that one gleaming nugget of awesomeness for which it gets a lot of bonus points: the layout of their photo sets. However, the rest of the website seems to be a bit haphazard, thrown together with no real vision in mind. The site isn't bad, but it could definitely use some updates. Then again, if I could blow myself, I probably wouldn't have time for much else either. -
