Greetings Buck from Winnipeg
don't think I have yet congratulated you on your AVN Award so
Congratulations!!! I'm absolutely proud and thrilled for you.
Buck, I have a question for you Sir. My very masculine leather
Daddy (who is gay identified) is working through his issues of
me being a gay transman. Like you, I'm very comfortable with my
pussy as I see it as masculine and male as any other part of me.
To help him along, I told him to pick up your movie Cirque Noir
and he finally watched it 2 days ago. He was completely
overwhelmed with what he saw (he's never seen my pussy since
we've been involved) and blown away. Seeing you just added
another dimension to our relationship and I've encouraged him to
visit your site. I want to share what he wrote me:
"I watched CIRQUE NOIR. I found it and sat through the hole
thing. I'm feeling like I have missed something and not sure
what it is.
The over all film is great. Buck Angel. Lets just say that
problem no longer exists. I got very hard watching the last two
scenes with Buck Angel in them.
I'm so proud that you have someone like Buck to look up to.
Your Daddy feels very.... not sure right now. I'm stuck on
WOW!!!!"
Anyhow, my question is whether it would be okay if he contacted
you to ask you a few questions. He asked me to contact you
about that. Where he is located (east shores of Canada), it's
very isolating with very few people to share his thoughts with
regarding us dudes who are proud of their pussies. The other
transguys he knows hates their body, which I understand, so they
are not very good examples. Plus since you're both leathermen,
he won't have to do a lot of explaining about our leather family
lifestyle.
Let me know your thoughts. I appreciate you taking the time to
read my email. Have a good one.
WOOF!

Yale Visit and Thanks!!
This is an email I just received on my YouTube account about my Yale visit in the next day.It’s because of emails like this that it makes me so happy that I am going to speak. I often remember when I first started my work the ugly hate mail from the trans man community. So I just see how things have changed so much.
I will be posting daily from Yale( if I make it as it looks like the snow is shutting the east coast down)on my blog with pics!! Ok read the cool email below.
WOOF!!
Buck
Dear Buck,
I am a transguy at Yale. I wanted to say thank you for performing at Yale and tell you how excited I am that you are going to be educating my fellow students. I am a big fan of your work and have showed many friends your website to explain what a transperson after testosterone (and lots of hard work) looks like. I cannot tell you how excited I was to learn that you were coming to Yale!!! I also wanted to let you know how very grateful I am that you are willing to be so open about your sexuality and status as a transman. Your example has helped me to slowly come out to my family and friends and has helped me to see how beautiful my body can one day become.
However, I am very sorry about the comments you recently received from a Yale. I found it particularly disappointing and frustrating that a fellow student would write such hurtful things. Thankfully, those sorts of people are very much the minority at Yale. I am writing in part to let you know that there are many wonderful and accepting people at Yale that have made my college experience a very loving and caring one. I adore my friends and the queer community at Yale and I hope that you have a good time when you visit. Sadly, I will not be able to attend your event because I am abroad at the Yale in London program. I wish I could be there in person Otherwise, I would have been in the front row cheering. I wish I could be there in person, but I made my friends promise to go and give me a play by play of the event. Good luck next week!!!
