(Continued...)

So, you've appeared in gay porn films as both Rod Majors and Pierre LaBranche—what's the difference between the two characters?
Okay, there is a current of homophobia involved here or at least self-loathing from the gay community. This is horrible. They are taking a situation and saying, "You're horrible because you suck cock," and frankly, I don't ever remember sucking cock on film, and it is not something that I ever enjoyed. [The left wing] is trying to discredit me because of these sexual acts.

"Gay men are like fundamentalist Muslims. If you leave their religion they have to send out a fatwa and demand your execution"In my experience, I've found that conservative straight men have less of a problem with gay people as they do with gay sex. Now that you've found yourself welcomed by the right-wing, and now that your gay-porn background has come out, do you think they are going to accept you, despite your now saying it was a horrible experience?
I didn't say it was horrible. It did have its perks for god's sake: you get a lot of money and you get some validation. But what I am seeing is that a lot of gay men see me as sacriligious. I am getting these e-mails that say, "You suck and you suck with Ann Coulter, we hate your guts and you are worthless as a human being but you have a huge schlong and I would like to see it."

Matt, are you gay?
What's that?

Are you gay?
No. I know this keeps coming up. I don't consider myself gay or a member of the gay community.

If you watch Matt Sanchez in a movie with another guy and Matt Sanchez's dick is hard, you'd think he must be having some fun.
Yeah, I think for someone who has sexual issues, yeah, maybe you would assume that. People can fuck anything for god's sake. I mean, one of the big problems they had in Quebec was finding a top, quite frankly.

Was that your specialty, Mr. LaBranche?
You would have to see the films, do your homework.

Have you ever been gay?
Have I ever been gay? No. Have I had sex with men? Obviously.

Are you not attracted to men anymore?
I never said I was in the first place. Gay men are like fundamentalist Muslims. If you leave their religion they have to send out a fatwa and demand your execution.

Have you ever enjoyed sex with men?
Did I enjoy sex with men? [Hesitantly] Sure. You know, there are societies out there that don't define people by who they have sex with.

It wouldn't be an issue if you hadn't been given an award by a major conservative group.
Yeah, well, I don't want to paint myself as a victim.

Do you have any plans to go back on O'Reilly?
I can't really confirm anything at this moment.

I have one more question. It's from Jeff Gannon, actually, whom many in the media have compared you to. How do you handle the angry left?
The angry left should be dealt with like a dog on a chained leash, so it can only lunge at you so far before it hurts itself.
