This website seemed to be in its heyday from around 2010 - 2013:

 

http://fratpad.com/

 

The premise was sort of similar to a "Big Brother" reality show where there were cameras everywhere and you could see the guys around the house. Some of those guys were GORGEOUS and while there was very, very little sex (unless you were willing to pay BIGLY), some of the guys were so good looking or affable you sort of looked over that.

 

Anyone know what happened there? They all lived in this huge house somewhere, and they seemed to go through seasons with guys. I know one of my faves (Spencer) ended up going on a reality show and sort of denounced this part of his past, but that's actually how I found it lol.

 

Some of my personal faves were -

Spencer:

 

Ridge:

 

Keyon:

I was a member of Fratmen for quite a while several years ago and was more interested in the Fratmen side with the videos, but later got involved with the Fratpad side with the Cam shows and stayed until the end. I enjoyed the Fratpad Fridays where almost all of the guys participated in the cam show activities at the same time.

 

I liked Jayden (became Jaden Storm after leaving FP) and Vincent and Gage. I still see some other former user members from time to time in some rooms on Chaturbate in a few rooms where several of us follow some of the same guys.

I was following from a distance - I never joined. If I remember correctly, they started having some trouble getting guys who would stay and have a draw. I think there might have been some financial trouble, but I could be mis-remembering that.

they filmed in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area....my mother's home was a few blocks away from that large fratmen/fratpad house where they did a lot of the filming (some blog back then was able to figure out the house - it was on Jackrabbit just W of Scotts Rd for any locals!!)......I don't know all the eventual intrigue between the owners/operators of fratmen/fratpad, but I believe gayhoopla is a "descendant" of the original website (same operator??).......

I subscribed to Fratpad for a month way back whenever. It was fun to watch for a while but then got a bit tedious. You could book a "sexy" private, 1-on-1 video chat with one of the guys. You had to schedule the time with the guy and pay in advance. Problem was, the site's public chat room was full of warnings about Fratpad guys not showing up for their private chats and clients struggling with management to get a refund.

The guy that owned Fratpad, I was just looking at his profile on LinkedIn. ?

 

He used to join on cam on Fridays just to chat with members but also had someone else managing the show, Leo. I remember one show where Leo cold called former fratman Diego. Was funny! Diego was one of my favorites.

 

The guys were young and self identified as straight. At least one still does GFP porn. They didn't do much hard core stuff on Fratpad. 21MSwVC99W3RBVkacz43lUNefllqvNPFokR1TcAytnEO4e_4Ijz4Qb-Qz3KyL3EeIFok-upNpbF7QsYVnD98ziPLuFh8_5lG2QyB_g

I had a huge thing for Vincent; for me, he was the hottest. Anyone know what happened to him? He resurfaced for a while on sites like Chaturbate, but haven't seen him for a few years. Wondering if he stayed in porn or got scooped up by some Sugar Daddy?

He was hot. If any of the guys were bi IMO Vincent would be on the list. Seemed like he was a little bit sweet on Casey.images?q=tbn%3AANd9GcT8o2PnAaPXylKKOJYPJ9ndJ8bdwcSCEGwPsr4QcuQwrnqG0ULt&usqp=CAU

I'm still waiting for a good successor to Fratpad and the Fratmen site where we get to watch the guys just doing normal things naked. It felt we had a closer connection and could watch the men be men of you know what I mean. I found it hotter than watching guys just wank or fuck.

 

I do too, though I fear this sort of content is gone for this new era of Onlyfans and chaturbate.

 

A LOT of time on the Fratpad was down time: the guys cooking, working out, cleaning, etc. I don't think viewers these days would pay what you had to pay for Pad, and still get Pad-level content.

 

I would welcome it though. I also found it odd. It's very niche, so I bet a ton of those guys lead totally "normal" lives and no one has any idea.

I think there was some sort of falling out as well. I was on Gayhoopla when it first started (they even had BENNY from the Fratpad days show up, as did theo), and they would be very vague and a little bitter whenever someone would bring up Fratpad in the chat.

 

Years ago, I remember reading on a forum that Chase was a personal trainer. I've also seen Ridge on Chaturbate, though that was about 5 years ago or so.

 

I think a lot have found a Sugar Daddy though, but that's just possibly wishful thinking haha

Ahhh, this thread is bringing back good memories! My favorite was Payne. He had that fun loving, muscular, jock, easy going midwestern corn fed guy vibe to this day drives me crazy. Since I have absolutely nothing else to do today because of the quarantine, I'm going to spend some time today reliving some good memories via Pornhub. Taj was also a fave - big strapping muscular hunk of a man with a big dick - perfect.

 

I do remember Dudedorm too - I was an avid watcher of that site back in the day! I can't remember their names for sure, but Jose and Josh were my faves on that site.

I very vaguely remember that there were others in the same vein as FP, but I don't think any were of the size of FP.

 

They were way too expensive to be sustainable though. I remember thinking that even in the early 2010s.

 

"Travis" is now "Parker" on ChaosMen:

I have some videos from Fratmen on one of my hard drives. Those guys were the hottest. I also felt that GayHoopla had very hot guys when they first started but not so much now.

 

GayHoopla was good imo in the beginning, but I'm personally not a fan now. It seems that they went much more generic and now the guys strike me as any other on other sites.

 

You can still download the archives on FP, but you can tell it hasn't been maintained and some archives/days won't open, can't be downloaded, etc. Still, I'm happy I'm able to save some of my fave gems.

Kumar and Payne had chemistry. They seemed authentically sweet on each other, bromance style (no homo, well not too much homo anyway).

I didn’t view Fratmen or Fratpad, but does anyone remember BoysCondo, DudeDorm and the pioneer of male webcam sites, SeanPatrick Live?

The only one of these I ever got into was BoysCondo. I believe the house was in Canada. Toronto, right? Anyway, I remember a cute otterish guy named Noah with whom I was a little obsessed. Fun times. I had forgotten all about that site, it was so long ago!

I liked Fratmen and Fratpad. They were cute, horny guys. I liked Nash especially....masturbating in bed and in another scene, in the shower.

 

I can’t recall the exact details but there was a minor scandal when he and another guy were outed as members of a college wrestling team - the Nebraska Cornhuskers stayed in my mind for some reason.

Correct. It was based in Toronto. My “obsession” was Damien. They’d have scheduled cam sessions and you could call the guy (obviously for a price) and chat with him while he did his thing on camera. Other guys in the condo would often “chat bomb” the session, pop-in and spend a few minutes interacting with the scheduled model. They had Naked Condo Sunday where they’d be naked from noon until 6PM. They’d be sitting around watching TV, eating or whatever. It was always fun to see when one of them got a boner and how (or who) handled it. One of the boys was a very young Pierre Fitch.
