We are interested in the various stereotypical characters that populate queer porn films. There are sets of groupable archetypes: the virgin/innocent, the uniformed person, the delivery person, the construction worker/ plumber/ electrician, etc. These archetypes cross porn genres and can be identified in many kinds of films. By extracting the introductory shot of each type of character from various films, and re-grouping them according to genre into a montage, we hope to point to the similarities in queer desire, rather than enumerate the differences.
