Simon Dexter (aka Sean Cody’s Harley) Wants You To Wear His Underwear
We will forever miss Simon Dexter (who you may remember as Harley from Sean Cody). He quit porn to professionally model and attend “private meetings”, but the ex-gay-for-pay porn star recently resurfaced in an interview with Papermag in which he discusses his new underwear line and working for Sean Cody:
A former porn god with an underwear line. That makes total sense. Tell me about the collection.
It’s going to be split into two labels, a white label and a black label. The white label is going to be very casual, comfortable and something you wear everyday to the work, to the gym. It’s cotton and bamboo, so it’s good in absorption. Three main cuts: a boxer brief, a brief and a boy short. Basically the concept is going back to classic fit and style. Not old, but not exotic either – somewhere in the middle. It’s your favorite pair of underwear. The black label is going to be silk jersey and more evening. The designer is Malan Breton, an upcoming designer in New York. I want it to look like how a tuxedo feels.
How did you get into pornography and why did you leave the business?
I started in the adult entertainment industry working for Sean Cody, a gay porn site. I did that for about two and a half years. It was a ton of fun. I made a lot of friends and made a lot of money. I never imagined myself doing pornography. I generated a fan base. I found out through blogs. I had no idea. I shot with more and more photographers while I was doing Sean Cody. Then I said ‘Hey, I’m going to stop doing pornography and start doing modeling. I like fashion. I like being in front of a camera.’
How did Sean Cody, who sounds like the Wizard of porn Oz, find you?
I was recruited from my MySpace photos. That was about four years ago. It pays $1500. You get a flight and a limo. All expenses paid. They explained to me it would be a solo masturbation video. I said, ‘Sure, that sounds interesting.’ I went out to San Diego and did that. It was fun, easy and quick. They messaged me the next week and said they wanted me for an oral blowjob scene. I had a girlfriend at the time and we were living together. I didn’t know whether I wanted to do it or not and finally decided, ‘Why not?’ They loved me and wanted to keep working with me. I ended up doing over 25 scenes with them. My frequent flyer miles added up.
For those of you who read this post hoping that Simon Dexter wanted you to wear a pair of his own underwear, don’t lose hope! Dexter says that fans write him all the time on his blog (which hasn’t been updated in eight months) asking him to visit their corner of the world. He responds by sending them signed underwear. We’d rather have him in person, but huffing his stanky panties like a paint rag while we jerk off is a close second.
