In a world where young women are shamed for their sexuality and porn consumption habits, the fandom surrounding the group is a reminder that women watching gay porn is not only perfectly healthy but also hardly niche. Their female fans are just as obsessive as the screaming followers of Justin Bieber or One Direction: They message the group on social media, create elaborate fan art in their honor, and breathlessly mob them at live events. The CockyBoys are a troupe of gay porn stars whose most dedicated fans are not gay men, but straight women in their 20s and 30s.
They even tell curious onlookers they’re an up-and-coming boy band to avoid the subject of what they really do: gay porn. With swooping hair and skinny jeans on Michelangelo’s David bodies, they travel in a pack. If you saw the CockyBoys in an airport, you’d think they were the next pop sensation.
