I am 29 years old, from Westmoreland Jamaica and moved to Canada at the age of 7 to live with my father. I consider myself to be an average guy. I enjoy going to the gym, watching movies\/anime, also hiking and fishing in the summer. As far as camming goes I am not ashamed of my body and proud of the skin I live in\u2026 There&#8217;s no bigger boost of confidence knowing you have an audience of admirers out there. Plus it\u2019s always good to add a bit of color and spice to the industry, especially with camming being the future of porn and all.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WES:\u00a0Growing up as an African American male, did you feel you had to hide your sexuality?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>TheAnthonyV: <\/strong>I grew up in what I would consider a typical black Jamaican household.\u00a0 As a young child, I felt that I had to hide the fact that I was gay. My family never once gave me a reason or showed me that they would be fine if they had a gay son or sibling.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cam4.com\/blog-gay\/files\/2017\/10\/Screen-Shot-2017-10-20-at-3.42.03-PM.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"  wp-image-10459 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cam4.com\/blog-gay\/files\/2017\/10\/Screen-Shot-2017-10-20-at-3.42.03-PM.png?resize=771%2C516&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2017-10-20 at 3.42.03 PM\" width=\"771\" height=\"516\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cam4.com\/blog-gay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Screen-Shot-2017-10-20-at-3.42.03-PM.png?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cam4.com\/blog-gay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Screen-Shot-2017-10-20-at-3.42.03-PM.png?resize=300%2C201&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cam4.com\/blog-gay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Screen-Shot-2017-10-20-at-3.42.03-PM.png?resize=1024%2C686&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cam4.com\/blog-gay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Screen-Shot-2017-10-20-at-3.42.03-PM.png?resize=600%2C402&amp;ssl=1 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 771px) 100vw, 771px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>WES:\u00a0When did you come out, and what was it like for you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>TheAnthonyV: <\/strong>I knew I was gay at a very young age. That was when I started to notice other friends starting to have \u201cgirlfriends\u201d and I realized shortly after that I did not show the same interest in females as they did. I did end up dating a few girls to hide the fact that I was gay. I stopped trying to convince myself that I could try to be straight around the age of 21 right after I completed college. Even though the girls I had dated were great in their own way, I was never truly happy with them and could never completely love them the way they deserved to be \u2026It was unfair to both of us.<\/p>\n<p>I finally came out to my mom at the age of 23.\u00a0 One day she just flat out asked if I was gay. \u00a0 My mom still lives in Jamaica and is what I consider a hardcore Christian woman. I don\u2019t believe she was mad that I was gay, she was more disappointed. After I came out, it took her a few weeks to finally come around. She told me she had spent a lot of time crying and of course praying \u2026After what seemed to be longest phone call EVER she told me she would love me no matter what and that I will always be her son.<\/p>\n<p>My father, on the other hand, had a field day. I knew he was very homophobic and I knew once my mom told him he would flip out \u2026boy did he ever. Now I thought it wouldn\u2019t bother me as much because I expected it, BUT I was kind of hoping he would surprise me in some kind of weird way. I think I took it harder than expected because I considered myself a great son. I was a good child and very respectful growing up, had good grades in school, never got into trouble, worked hard, and paid my own way through college. Even though he was never the one to tell me he was proud of me, I knew he was&#8230; but in one moment none of that mattered and all he saw in front of him was another \u201cfaggot\u201d instead of his son.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most difficult obstacles in any gay male\u2019s life is worrying about being accepted when coming out for the first time, especially to family, but as is the case with many Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer youth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WES:\u00a0Do you feel self-conscious because of the stereotype that all black men have big dicks?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>TheAnthonyV:\u00a0<\/strong>When I was younger, sure, but now being much older and wiser I know not all black men have \u201cbig\u201d dicks. Let\u2019s just say I have seen my share of \u201caverage\u201d ones. Now I try not to worry about the size of mine, the way I look at it is you can\u2019t change it,\u00a0so work with what you got. You can\u2019t go trade it in when a bigger one becomes available, so why bother stressing over the size. PLUS, I\u2019m a BOTTOM \u2026I worry more about keeping my ass toned and my hole tight.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cam4.com\/blog-gay\/files\/2017\/10\/IMG_0728.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"  wp-image-10467 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cam4.com\/blog-gay\/files\/2017\/10\/IMG_0728.jpg?resize=769%2C645&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"IMG_0728\" width=\"769\" height=\"645\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cam4.com\/blog-gay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_0728.jpg?w=2048&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cam4.com\/blog-gay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_0728.jpg?resize=300%2C252&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cam4.com\/blog-gay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_0728.jpg?resize=1024%2C860&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cam4.com\/blog-gay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_0728.jpg?resize=600%2C504&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cam4.com\/blog-gay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_0728.jpg?w=1800&amp;ssl=1 1800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 769px) 100vw, 769px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>WES:\u00a0Because you\u2019re so built and masculine, most would assume you\u2019re a top.

At a certain age, you are going to stop caring about what other people think of you.<\/p>\n<p>It took me 10 years to accept myself for who I am, and another 2 years to build up the courage to come out. I was lucky to have had a few gay friends and was in a relationship at the time, so I at least had people to talk to when I was feeling down that could pick me back up. I found it was far easier to come out having at least one person who already knew, that I could confide in before telling my family. Regardless, our community is constantly growing and I feel like today\u2019s youth have a bigger platform and more support than ever. Just know there is always somebody out there like you and that you are NOT alone.<\/p>\n<p>If you love TheAnthonyV as much as we do, be sure to follow him on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheAnthonyVXXX\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/the_anthony_v\/\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a>,\u00a0and\u00a0<a class=\"xl\" href=\"http:\/\/www.cam4.com\/TheAnthonyV\" target=\"_blank\">WATCH HIM LIVE<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>GET SOCIAL WITH US!<\/p>\n<p>Snapchat: Cam4gay<br \/>\nTwitter: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/cam4_gay\">@cam4_gay<br \/>\n<\/a>Instagram: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/cam4gay\/\">@cam4gay<br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/cam4gay.tumblr.com\/\">Tumblr<br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/cam4.gay\/\">Facebook<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheAnthonyVXXX\" target=\"_blank\">TheAnthonyV<\/a> <\/strong>is one of our newest cammers and he is here to squash the stereotypes!
