Rex Woodbury and Ian Spear

So what does DL think of this couple? They post a lot of charity stuff like helping the homeless, planting trees, finding mentors for gay kids. They also have recently promoted a lot of products. Some think they are attractive and nice and haters are just going to hate. Others say they seem fake and everything seems too forced and too perfect.

What are your thoughts?

I used to like Rex. His posts seemed genuine. But then he started dating Ian and their Instagram just became a product placement page. It just feels too Stepford wives for me

[quote]So what does DL think of this couple?

Drop the G.

Their bodies are great, but it's almost like a Ken Doll. Ian's abs look fake.

If I had to choose, I would say Rex is hotter of the two. Mostly because when Ian speaks, a purse falls out.

Bland gay twin gym rats, is my first impression.

R2 God, but you are tiresome. No one but the Russians who love division could ever post something like that on DL.

They seem to know a few other Instagram gays like Gio and Tommy and Derek Binsack. they get comments from other Instagram people frequently.

this "model citizen" meme is starting to drive me crazy. Is this to repent for the torrid gay culture of the past?

I admit, I wish they would do some Youtube videos, just to get an idea of their personality outside of pictures.

I agree with R6, it's like they try so hard to be gold star gay boy scouts. Don't get me wrong, I admire that more than the trash we see from people like Davey Wavey or Matt Crawford, but I want something dramatic. Their pictures are often framed like the cover of a magazine spread.

Be normal!

[QUOTE]they try so hard to be gold star gay boy scouts

Which means you just know their sex life is absolutely filthy.

I want to know who takes all their pictures. Do they have a professional photographer that follows them around lol?

Cackling at the awkward hug at the start of this video. Also notable how many degrees of attractiveness they drop on video compared to photos.

R9, I mean not being like this. Who the fuck does this? This is clearly not a real picnic.

A real picnic with a real couple is making sandwiches, wrapping them in plastic wrap, getting a regular blanket, and taking a selfie of a happy couple.

Instead, we get an elaborate display of gourmet looking food, shoes perfectly placed on the side, with Ian spreading his legs open, showing off a watch, and gazing off romantically into the distance smiling at god knows what, with the back drop of the Eiffel tower. It was clearly set up to be professional photo shoot like a magazine. That is not normal.

Never heard of them until now. Not wedded to the Internet. Are they, that how they are known here? I don't do Instagram. Am I missing out?

Tommy and Gio make these two look vapid.

Which of these two makes the most money and supports the other?

Nice guys doing good which is documented on instagram. Some would consider it inspirational, but since this is Datalounge: You can do good without having to be instahore-ish about it.

So what do they do, travel for a living? They're in a different place every day, like that Drew Schiff.

They both have tragic gay face. They could beg me to do a menage with them, and my answer would be a big fat NO!

R21, I'm sure we would all love to see what you look like.

Who is the top? Cut or uncut?

They do not look like head hiders.

The lesson is that it gets better...only if you're hot. Let's not pretend otherwise.

I think Rex is the top, but I wouldn't be surprised if they switched.

Is Rex the one who looks like Tom Daley, or the Eric McCormackesque one?

There was already a long thread on these two vapid Instahoes. This new OP smells like Rex or Ian shilling.

We hated you the first time.

r25, it doesn't take much to look hot though. Workout, eat healthy, show off your best features on instagram. With a bit of discipline and exhibition you can be hot and popular, too.

R29 .....said an elder gay, EVER!

Someone posted this upthread, but who takes the pictures for these instawhores? I can see when there's just one of the couple, but both? Do they ask a passerby and then filter the thing to death later?

I imagine there might be a tripod and the timer function of the camera involved.

I’m confused. Who is the top?

R14, he looks like Jeff Koons did in those synthetic porn shots he did with Ilona Staller (sp?).

Jesus, I wish I hadn't watched that video. Not hot talking at all. They sound gayer than Richard Simmons.

Ian looks a little better with the scruff

Amazing bodies, but they look like every other gay guy on the street of Hell's Kitchen.

30 second video they posted about the homeless. Who does Ian's voice remind you of?

Also, if you look closely, I'm not sure, but it seems Rex shaves his chest. That might be some serious neck hair stubble. I thought he was naturally smooth.

[quote]Who does Ian's voice remind you of?

No one. Who were you hoping for?

Ian's voice just sounds generically feminine.

Ian is generic and feminine. #basicbitch

Is it weird that I feel compelled to break into their home, tie them face down beside one another to the headboard in their bedroom and take turns raping each one while the other listens for hours on end?

Nope. Sounds hot. I'll join in

Oh R44, you are the dickens.

Oh r43, I'll show you the dick-ins.

So FAKE.

Look at the Photoshop smudging and unnatural color saturation in this pic.

So what do these two lovelies do for a living? They certainly have some coin in the bank.

Why do so many gay men have such amazing bodies? I don't mean chemically enhanced, but naturally muscular bodies?

We already did these vapid queens. I expect Ian or Rex is the OP looking for clicks on their Instagram account.

I don't think of them! They are nobodies. Next!

I can't imagine Rex or Ian ever having lower GI functions. It just seems impossible.

Every person who posts Instagram nobodies should be permanently banned.

Enough. You’re as bad as the Ponies.

R53 Instagram nobodies are no different from movie nobodies and pop-record nobodies.

R54 except they are doing something in the entertainment business dumbass

It's like these two were shat out from an assembly line.

Do you guys detect any difference in their personalities?

It's tacky to be living for and on social media 24/7. The new movement is to stay off-line and have mystery.

I just want to see them have sex. That's all.

R55 Instagram stars ARE in the entertainment business. The good ones are getting an income from product endorsements and tourist companies.

Their instagram is weird and synthetic looking.

It's all the photo filters they use, r62.

Are they plant-based, like me?

In that homeless video Ian is downright unattractive, doesn't quite look human. Rex has a nice voice and as mentioned in the other thread, you can find a cute video of him on local TV back in his previous life as a regular-ish person where he does seem like a good and interesting person. I'm sure that person is still in there, somewhere, but I find him unrecognizable now in instagram-star mode.

I really liked the video where Rex talks about his mom passing away and how it inspired him later to come out, it was sweet, if anyone has it. He seems so Instagay now. Not mean, just plastic and overdone

Are there any good IG accounts where we can gaze at intelligent minds and rave about IQ scores?

There's a funny Instagram account that parodies the Instagays.

The pic is really hot here. I hate that he shaves his chest, but you can see some stubble.

Their veneers are blinding me.

My thought process when I looked at post r71 exactly mirrored post r72 and r73.

Great minds think alike r74 lol!

Those aren't really veneers are they?

Great pic. Love the chest.

It is sad we have to go without seeing them in their dongs.

It's sad we have to see them without the full chest hair. Stop shaving dammit, you are not fooling anyone.

i feel like they're judged because the instagayness is irritating but they did go to ivies. rex worked at goldman and ian at mckinsey. even if you have well connected and richy rich mammies and daddies (which i don't think they do), they still had to possess one iota of intelligence to get to where they are. obviously they look filtered af on insta but remove that and most people would agree that they are smoking hot. like very very hot. like hotter than me

They are so nice, why is it there is a part of me that wants to punch them in the face?

I don't think they're all that hot, personally.

[quote]why is it there is a part of me that wants to punch them in the face?

How could you not? Their entire social media presence is trying to be these perfect gay ken dolls. It is eye roll inducing.

R86 all i see is fake blindingly white teeth And they are just too basic to be considered hot or memorable.

Enjoy it while it lasts boys....because it never does

So they have been together how long now? A couple years? Do you think the relationship will last?

Looks like Yale newspaper did a chat with Ian.

R23: Who is the top? Cut or uncut?

Ian's from Chicago and the son of docs..surely they had him cut. Rex is from the Southwest...so maybe he escaped the knife---he seems more like the top...maybe they're verse though. He seems to have to have the bigger bulge.

They are both big queens. 2 bottoms.

Guys that age are usually versatile these days.

Per that article, Ian is a management consultant in SF. What does Rex do?

R96: Rex is an investment banker associate. They both accepted delayed entry into Stanford's MBA program. How does that work? Do they do night school whilst working their current jobs, or will they take time off to complete the program?

They take a lot of vacations for two people who have careers that tend to be very time-consuming. I know several management consultants and they're always working.

R98 I get then impression that a lot of the photos are recycled from their previous trips. Otherwise, it seems to be weekend trips out of San Francisco.

[quote]They both accepted delayed entry into Stanford's MBA program. How does that work? Do they do night school whilst working their current jobs, or will they take time off to complete the program?

Stanford doesn't offer a part-time MBA, a lot of elite programs don't. They'll take the two years off to be business school students.

Will most places hire you back after two years off? Or do you get recruited by other top firms?

They will presumably move on to different positions with different companies.

This isn't my world, I am in the sciences, but when I was in grad school the people I knew getting MBAs had quit their old jobs and were looking for new opportunities.

I want to make sexy with them!

Talk about A list. And age appropriate for the looks they come up with. Good minds, great bodies, great educations, professionals. Whats not to like? Their instagram narcissism? Doesn't that come with their generation?

Is Instagram a window into one’s personality, value system, or even soul? Usually when something looks or sounds too good to be true, it often isn’t...just sayin

[quote]Their instagram narcissism? Doesn't that come with their generation?

Believe it or not, every millennial does not have a shrine-to-themselves instagram account.

I know they don't, I'm a college teacher. But I've learned that I can't eyeball the complete M.O. of those who heavy social media users. They are sometimes the smartest, fastest and with critical thinking skills.

Hard core IB and management consulting are tough jobs and very competitive - I hope these guys are just recycling past trip photos and actually have their noses to the grindstone...otherwise this insta-ho stuff IS too good to be true. Not to mention unseemly to their bosses and clients who would be paying them a ton.

Rex seemed to change after he started dating Ian. Became too glossy, forced, and superficial.

I didn't think he and Phil seemed like a good fit, but I liked them better together.

I first laid eyes on this handsome guy on April 1st, as he worked his way through the rush hour crowds in Grand Central Station. We’d matched on Tinder a few weeks before and had made plans for him to take the Metro North from New Haven into New York for dinner. That night, we ate at Cafe Cluny in the West Village, walked along the Hudson, got ice cream at Van Leeuwen’s, and saw the Friday night show at Comedy Cellar 👬🕯🍽🍦🎟 It was one of the best nights of my life. And ever since that night, he’s been my best friend, my biggest supporter, my moral compass. Happy Anniversary, Ian ❤️ Thank you for being my person. I love you so much.

really???? they met on tinder???? really?????? i don't believe

R112 Maybe they really met on Grindr, but they say Tinder to seem more mainstream?

Anybody who makes a career out of Instagram or social media is selling something that's not worth buying. I suppose these two are the best of a bad lot.

I didn't go through the whole IG but I saw enough to note a conspicuous absence of tits. If not wearing shirts, they are pictured from the back or at an angle. What's wrong with your nipples, boys?

R115, they are teases. It drives me insane.

They know they are hot, they take pictures of themselves all the time, just post a high quality shirtless pic already.

R4 I think they are both Equinox Ambassadors...what does that mean? Do they get free membership for posting on their IG? Or maybe perks like the higher grade locker rooms?

With bodies like that, they must work out constantly. Anyone seen them in the showers at Equinox?

I kinda like Ian with glasses!

Love that Pottery Barn mirror in the background.

Phony as a three dollar bill. Most Instagram posters are, regardless of sexual orientation.

Regarding the top/bottom questions: It should be obvious Woodbury buries his wood in the other bloke!

Great calves.

RE126 Hard to see any VPL on Rex's photos. Wonder how he's hung. Agree--Ian's more bottom

"When it hits you that you might actually be an introvert"

Bitch, please.

Double threat as two Ken dolls who actually look like brothers. Why do so many gaylins date mirror images of themselves? How narcissistic can you be?

Is it wrong to hope something... Happens... To them?

They aren't my cup of tea, but they are attractive in a fake Ken doll way I suppose. Spear's head seems a bit big, and appears even more out of proportion with the extra long neck. Pic @ R91 shows what I see rather well. Weird, almost as if someone glued some other head on a pic of someone else's body. Anyone else see it?

Their clothes, especially the shorts look uncomfortably tight. Must be hard to move, unless it's a stretch material.

They're like a real life LA Basics Instagram.

"I know they don't, I'm a college teacher. But I've learned that I can't eyeball the complete M.O. of those who heavy social media users. They are sometimes the smartest, fastest and with critical thinking skills."

You teach? You need to go back to school yourself. Also, educators at the college and university levels are called professors, not teachers.

129 I frickin' agree as I was about to comment that. Couples that look like each other are disturbing, they look like siblings. Probably because I like a bit of height, weight and overall difference in couples.

These two guys are attractive but too perfect (it seems they try to have eeevery small thing in place), it reminds me of a gay classmate I had who always wanted everything to be perfect. Fucking annoying and zero masculine.

When you want every small detail to be perfect, life isn't enjoyable. And as the other poster said, people like that are uncomfortable to be around.

R136 I'd like if they kept their body hair natural. Likely they have shaved pubes or pubes trimmed unnaturally close.

Apparently they read this thread because the video mocking their voices is no longer up.

R138 what video was that?

I think it was one where they discussed their coming out stories. Ian was boring and not memorable, fitting for his personality. Rex said something pretentious like.. I didn't tell anyone at first ~not because I was ashamed or anything~ but because it wasn't their business and I'm a private person in real life... to that was SOOO selfish of me and wrong because I have to tell everyone now because I'm a role model for uglier gay kids so that they don't kill themselves. Ian's voice was GAY, Rex lilted in and out between gay and a fake deeper voice like a bad southern accent except he's from Arizona.. so didn't fit right. There's a YouTube vid of Rex on the local news for 'running a marathon in a suit' if you want to hear his voice

[quote] Why do so many gaylins date mirror images of themselves? How narcissistic can you be?

I find this perfectly normal. In the "Who cemented your type?" thread, my answer was "Me." I think it's instinctive to be drawn to those who are like us, in my case, skinny, nerdy white boys with dark hair (who eventually started working out, but still).

I don't judge them for liking each other when they look similar. When I was younger I was attracted to smoother guys and I happened to be smooth. When I got older and hairier I noticed I started to be attracted to body hair more.

I think that we all seek validation as people. When you are gay, it is only natural you compare yourself to your partners. I think that if you are not attracted to features that you have, it's like a subconscious way of saying you are not attractive, so it's not uncommon you land up being attracted to people who share similar features.

What I do judge them for is this Stepford wife vibe they got going on. It's too forced and perfect. Rex used to not post like that. It's disappointing.

They're going to need personal security soon. Not safe to stoke envy.

The charity work is guilt-driven.

They’re trying to excuse themselves for being shallow, lookist and petty.

R144, it's not guilt. It's PR. Don't be naive. Narcissists don't feel guilt.

I hope something... Happens to them.

They're not nearly as hot as they think they are.

Bullshit, r29.

You can’t work out an ugly face.

Those who try to make themselves uglier.

If you can't do charity without posting it on Facebook, it doesn't count.

^^ ain't that the damn truth. Preach r149

Their best features( their teeth ) are fake Other than that they are soo soo bland, nothing interesting at all about them.

R151 Do you think their teeth are capped? Or fake via whitening and braces? I'm keen on Mr. Rutherford on Instagram. On his videos today, you can see his bottom teeth are not perfect. I like guys with good oral health but I like guys who don't have quite perfectly straight teeth.

They both grew up wealthy and in the mid-late 90s. They both had metal braces in middle school and now have them beached by a dentist. Caps are for older people who came of age before the 'braces required for every kid' in the 90s. Before that time, braces were for severe issues, now its standard for everyone. You'll notice that anyone under 30yo today has straight teeth upper and lower. If under30 they don't, they either grew up poor or are European

R142 there's a big difference between dating other smooth guys and dating smooth guys who look like you. That's some narcisistic shit.

I don't think either one of them are all that good-looking.

If they had different haircuts, they wouldn't look so twin-y. The one on the right in r155 is more Polish/Slavic looking. The one on the left, more WASPy. Of course, I'm terrible at blonds, and may have their ethnicities completely back-asswards. I don't think they're that good-looking, either. They must have been born with so much money, they don't need to work.

R157 Rex's dad is/was an orthopedic surgeon, so probably pulled in quite a bit of cash. What do/did Ian's parent's do?

Ian's family is much wealthier than Rex's (who's dad pulls in about 450k a year as a surgical specialist). They have a mansion in the north shore Chicago suburbs and a lake house in Michigan. What the dad does is a mystery but he's an executive somewhere, not a doctor. The mom is a housewife

Not surprising they are both from wealthy families.

How else would they have been affording a two bed apartment in SF in a trendy area for the past 6 months? That's about 4.5k a month. Ian just started his first job ever and Rex wouldn't have that much saved after paying his rent in NYC for 2+ years. Granted they both have high paying jobs now, but Ian's parents have got to have been supporting their living costs, while they throw their savings at vacations to South Africa, Thailand, Paris, and Italy all in the past year and a half.

I don't know Ian's story, but I do Rex lost his mom at a very young age. The video of him talking about how he and his brother's favorite color is pink because that was her favorite color gets me anytime I see it.

So he seems nice and has been through stuff. He does a lot of charity work I think because losing his mom to cancer. But then their is the damn Instagram profile and everything just seems so shallow, forced, and overly perfect.

It's conflicting.

[quote]he and his brother's favorite color is pink because that was her favorite color

Literal gaybros.

I don't think there is anyone living in SF or NYC who does not have a hefty trust fund/family money. It certainly seems that way.

Look. I truely feel for Rex losing his mom. Feels like she could have/should have been there if only things had been a little different. It sucks, nobody should live without parents or role models. But they do, all the time, every damn day, in situations much worse than his. That being said, she passed when he was about a year old. He didn't know her, he doesn't remember her. Her memory influenced him sure, but she personally never did. His honoring her by saying he loves pink comes across as super scripted and disingenuous. It's a beautiful sentiment crafted mostly for maintaining his magnanimous persona. If she'd passed when he was 15, he'd have a real connection with a real person, and I'd be more inclined to believe that his mom's cancer meant more to him than a college admissions essay or a sob story for video views on the internet..

The story is beyond tragic. The dad lost his wife and their third child to a sudden cancer while she was pregnant. He was left alone to raise two toddlers, Rex and his older brother, all while being a surgeon. There's no doubt his dad was torn apart for life and will never get over that loss, mad respect to him. I believe Rex has his heart in the right place, but his story should be about his dad, not his mom. Playing up his connection with her for online news or YouTube or social media is honestly just disrespectful to his father and/or whoever else stepped up to raise him in her place.

Oh thank god! Chest Hair!

R169 Any chest hair sighted on Ian yet?

R159 Aren't Ian's parents both doctors too?

Doctors are easily searchable online. I've seen no indication that Ian's parents are doctors.. and if they were -both- doctors.. 1) Ian probably would have become a doctor himself like Rex's older brother did.. 2) Ian would probably brag about how caring and selfless they are for being doctors..

Rex's got some wrist hair in the second photo where he's holding up his marathon number! Love hairy blond guys---their fur is so soft. He's hoping he stops shaving his chest!

Another marathon! Would love to see him in a jock strap with running shorts. Like so many milenialls, he probably only wears compression shorts. Bring back the jock straps!

Not my cuppa tea. The Instapics look too professional for spur of the moment snaps.

A very average couple.

Do you think he re-did his hair before that marathon or did it stay perfect for 26.2 miles?

Do they actually have real jobs? Where do they find the time to fit in all this fabulousness? Cmon, something is fake here..

R177 I dont know but there fake couples on instagram.

Who's fake? Spill the beans r178

r159 Ian's mom doesn't seem to be housewife.

Ian's father invented pectoral and abdominal implants, which were prototyped on Ian himself.

Well I can see where he gets his basic/bland looks from.

R171 Ian's mom is featured in one of his adverts as a physician.

Do either of them wear jockstraps?

R184 Most of the time in their photos where you can see up their shorts, they are wearing compression shorts. Being hung runners, they need something to keep their junk in place.

There's nothing good about a good-looking person.

I want to like them... but my area is FULL of these instagram hoes clogging up tinder, despite being in a relationship, just to get social media exposure. Rex was one of the very first I noticed doing this

It's like they were both created by a marketing team.

Oooh R187, Rex was on Tinder?

R189 Didn't they say they met on Tindr?

I hope something terrible happens to these assholes.

They are in Japan now. Posting great Tokyo photos! Conveyor belt sushi, etc!

They seem so nice, why do I want to punch them?

They’re fake - I’m convinced...

If Rex or Ian (I can't really tell them apart) really is a management consultant, where does he get all this free time to be on vacation? The management consultants I've known are always working and don't really have a lot of free time.

R196 I think they only do a couple trips a year and post "memories" the rest of the time.

Or they’re just lying...unheard of, I know...

I just don't find them interesting at all.

R199 no one does, Basic bitches are basic

It's like that Basic Gay Instagram, which is really funny.

I've been following their Japan trip. Looks like they are staying in nice hotels or have some sponsorship. Do you think the hotels give them free stays for their posts? Or just a discount?

And here's Rex too from earlier in their trip. Maybe they get a few free days at each hotel they stay at? It can be sort of fun to change up hotels during a trip.

Funny about r202's pic:

[quote]I'm amazed you didn't kick-off those cups and the empty tea pot in your sleep... And how the hotel entered your room and put the paper that you're not reading by your bed. And that you slept in your bathrobe...

R181 I thought Rex's dad was the surgeon.

As my grandmother used to say, "they're a real couple of try-hards."

R202 It's probably comped. A lot of hotels having been doing this for some time now with B-list actors, reality stars, social media types, etc. They comp your stay and if they have a stake in any location-specific activities they will send them there too so that they post about the trips on social media. The Gansavoort hotel did this a lot a couple years ago with their Turks & Caicos property.

R181 Speaking of dads...are they wearing dad jeans?

Rex is insanely hot but at that age you just have to walk up a flight of stairs to get your quads to pop. Honestly, they’re most unctuous people...

They're so basic and uninteresting.

What do you think their conversations are like?

Rex: Hey Ian, what do you want to do today? Ian: Rex I want to ______________________

One gets his energy from the bustling city streets. Yup. Energy.

Does Rex ALWAYS have that stupid fucking grin on his face? Surprised such a vapid queen would do something that’s guaranteed to give you wrinkles.

Look at those awesome hairy legs Rex has. Would love to feel those against mine in bed. Think he's got a hairy ass?

R215 He has no sex appeal he’s like a basic mary tyler moore just big white teeth and a skinny body!

R206 - Yes they are a couple of real “try hards”! Something kinda griftery too, if none the wiser one would think they’re for sale. Are they?

R216 He's got real muscular legs!

Once you hear either speak, the illusion is shattered.

These millenials are coming out of the closet so young. I was in my late 20's before I came out. When did they come out? How did their families/friends react?

Ian's dad. They look quite similar! Hot stuff!

Rex's dad lost his wife and mother of his children,and raised two sons as a single dad. I have major respect for him.

Their dads look like they know their way around the business end of a penis!

You can clearly see Rex's ball outline in this video a few moments in. It zooms in on his crotch.

God I hate these narcissistic whores.

Every time this thread resurfaces, I hope an obituary or two is the reason.

I don't know why I hate these twats, but I just do.

Do you think the have sex towels? Or do they cum in each other and leave it in, and let it dribble out all night on their sheets of white privilege, then have the housekeeper take care of it? Do they shave each other's butt holes?

They have a life that Chrysanthemum Tran is insanely jealous of.

R226: Looks like Rex is pretty hung. Is Ian hung too? Any vids of him?

Looks like Ian's bulge is smaller.

Did we talk about this interview with Ian? He tries to play it cool, hard to play both sides of talking about how silly instagram is while also taking it very very seriously.

[quote]Yeah, it’s a fair question. Well, I often say that I would never follow myself. So I don’t really understand why people follow me. I’m just a random guy out there, you know?

[quote]What was it like becoming an Instagram celebrity as a Yale student? Was there a response from your peers?

[quote]I think mostly just people poking fun, which is kind of fair. Because it’s sort of ridiculous.

R234 Is he the most famous Yalie on Instagram?

No...Angela Bassett and Claire Danes have more followers.

Ok, they are at some gay brunch. Ian looks like your aunt from Florida who is a middle aged lesbian who takes you to the Broadway shows and wears a hat and fanny pack everywhere.

Rex looks like he is fishing for a threesome.

R237 They are pride outfits. They are instagram ambassadors for Equinox gym and were on the Equinox float! So there!!

Their pride posts in Equinox gear.

I wonder if ambassadors are required to use the locker rooms.

Ian just isn't good looking. At least not anymore. Maybe he was once, but as mentioned above he just looks so frauy now, smiling for him is just contorting his face...

Rex was seriously hot. Seeing him in the picture prepped out with his dad he looks like a beautiful golden boy. He's in some videos on YouTube from his student-runner days and he's really likeable. However since he's gone down this SM road with Ian he becomes more and more unrecognizably plastic looking. It all does make you wonder if any of this is real, or do they have a purely business relationship like Geick & Jackson. I wonder if after another year of SM grifting will Dylan end up looking as plastic as them.

Rex has definitely changed. He was more likable when he was dating Phil. I wonder why they broke up.

Looks like Ian is traveling alone in Europe this time? Cambridge and Porto with college friends. Rex must be stuck back in SF working.

r242, "URL signature expired."

Why is this such a trend with these Instagram whores?

Could Rex not also bet off of work? They always travel together...are they breaking up?

They do that thing where they go on Tinder not looking for anyone but just to lure more followers into that thirst trap IG. I hate that

R249, you've seen them on Tinder?

R250 Just Rex, and yes the profile is really meant just to get them more followers. They clearly aren't looking to date anyone new. I mean I also started following him so I guess it worked

Does he ask in his profile bio to follow them on tinder?

If so, god that is douchey.

They look like they are having a gay ole time.

They have effectively de sexualized themselves. Plastic. What do they do for fun? I want to see the Folsom pix / videos!!!

Why does Rex always look like he's caked in clown makeup? And Ian's face always looks oiled up and plastic.

They both look like bottoms.

how do u do it if there are two bottoms

Looks like they'll be running in the NY Marathon next week! Likely at peak fitness with their training!

Gay face to the max. Bad chain salon mall hair with drug store looking tips/frosting whatever the fuck it's called. Spray on and. Talk to the cast of 300 to learn how they do it.

You think they may use CostCutters?

Wow, that is one bland couple. What do they talk about?

Their pictures remind of an episode of the Twilight Zone, "The After Hours" where mannequins take turns living among humans for a month.

Bland. White paste on oatmeal.

R268 I think both Ian and Rex could be pretty hot if they let their body hair grow out a little. Hot masculine guys.

" Ian and I often talk about our privilege, and it doesn’t stop at our good fortune to live in an open-minded and accepting community: it’s present every day in the color our skin, the loving and supportive families we were born into, the educational opportunities we’ve had. But it motivates us to, hopefully, use that place of privilege to improve the lives of others. I have no idea what it’s like to go through the world as anyone other than a white, cisgender man; I’ve never experienced that"

They're PC Gays. Oh god. I know he means well but I hate when they do this. The "oppression Olympics" that inadvertently dismisses the homophobia and adversity a gay man has faced if he happens to be white.

Tell it to Matthew Shepard Rex.

Cisgender man ? Are they 15 ?

No, they are woke. They are cisgender, are they not? Or are you suggesting they are trans?

r272, it sounds as if r271 was stating that they are gay men.

Most gay men are cisgender. I myself am white, cis, gay man.

Being gay doesn’t exclude you from being either cis or trans.

I am gay, r274. That is all. No "cis."

God they are so fucking dull. I can't stand couples that are make an exhibition of their relationship... nothing can be private, everything has to have an audience. You know what? Fuck them both.

R272 You are so slow, no wonder why i block you.

R260 These basic bottom bitches are sexless!

These are some pics of Rex's ex Phil. I remember when then he and Rex dated, it wasn't the Stepford Husband show like with him and Ian.

R281 I think Ian got Scruffy once in Italy--loved the beard he had goin'

Exhibitionist stepford wife queens who forget how hard gay men and yes gay white men still have it.

The hairy legged guy is kind of hot. Any pictures of his hairy hole?

But how hard do white, gay men still have it? Tell the truth, when was the last time you were discriminated against in Hell’s Kitchen on the UWS?

Looks like they are in NYC this weekend for the Marathon! Love to see their packages in a jock!

bangin bods but they look like clones

[quote]Looks like they are in NYC this weekend for the Marathon!

What is "the Marathon!"?

R288 The New York City Marathon, Rose.

Why do they look increasingly plastic? Are they getting fillers? BOTOX?

Looks like Ian beat Rex in the Marathon by 1 second!

Is there a top in this relationship? If not, I see it ending in tears.

Somehow I see Rex as the top? Rex didn't come out until later in college. Ian grew up in liberal Chicago and was likely out in high school. However, I'm often surprised at how some really masculine guys are bottoms.

Looking at these two, I felt the need to go vacuum from the sheer ennui they project. Is vapidity a marketable skill?

Millennial guys are more versatile. The top/bottom thing is an older generation.

R296 He studied Chinese at Yale. His dad might be part Asian too. So maybe 25 to 50% Asian.

Seriously? Stop bumping these boring basic bitches! Everyone has had ENOUGH!!!!

wow someone is just monitoring thirs thread it looks like also i love basic bitchesssss cuz i am a basic bitch how fetch

Looks like they are expanding their travels to South America for the New Year! Brazil!

These two haven't posted much lately. Something seems a little off. Did they break up?

Rex look super fake and honestly he looks like a very mean person despite that fake smile on his face.

r305 A lot of couples are not posting so much these days

Likely they are getting busy with their jobs. Ian seems to be stationed in Europe for a bit and Rex seems to be going to Grad School at Stanford. Are they growing apart? Is Rex Ian's first BF?

Didn't Rex have a previous BF? I think Rex was Ian's first. Since they are likely monogamous, I can't see them staying together forever. Ian would want to spread his wings a little.

R309, Rex's previous boyfriend was Phil.

Ivies only date Ivies (or West coast Ivy equivalents)

Well if you post all your charity on Instagram you gotta expect people calling you fake, because you probably are.

Number one rule of charity is no one talks about charity.

They still seem together.

I haven't seen Rex or Ian post together lately..maybe I am missing their stories though. If their plan is still the same, Rex should be off to do his MBA program this year? Will Ian do it the same year or does he still need complete another year of work?

They don't need to work.

They're cheating by now surely. One of them should run for president in several years.

R319 Why don't you think they need to work? Rex's dad was an orthopedic surgeon, but probably only upper middle class. Ian's parents are upper middle class doctors too. Rex and Ian can't live off Instagram forever so they need to forge careers to maintain their upper middle class lifestyle. It's only the mega wealthy families that pass significant wealth to the next generation.

I think they make a good couple

R321 Me too. Was Rex Ian's first boyfriend? It seems Rex has been out longer than Ian--perhaps mentoring him. Will Ian want to explore more on his own?

I feel like neither really posts anymore. Have they moved out of the social media spotlight?

Are they cloning gays now?

They don't seem to travel very much either.

Fake and forced. Forced and fake.

Looks like they're back! Several month hiatus on social media to figure out direction in their lives.

What direction do you think their careers will go? I only see them climbing higher!

They probably were hemorrhaging followers by the day without posting much. Jack and Brad are the newest couple to the SF Social Media scene.

Love Jack and Brad, but loved Rex and Ian too. Hope all is okay

R330 Is Jack or Brad the top?

Anyone hear how Rex and Ian's greeting card company was going for gender inclusive greeting cards? I think the greeting card market is so saturated--they may learn this as they get their MBA's. Does a Stanford MBA equal an automatic path to a high paying job, if desired?

R331 My guess is Jack (the tall one?) is the top and Brad is the total bottom. Are they both from wealthy parents or just one? They are in university or just graduated and they are jetting off to time shares, high end restaurants, etc all the time.

Rex has a posted a few posts after a year hiatus.

I wish Rex and Ian would do a few Quarantine posts to keep our spirits uplifted!

There is no top between these two.

Jack and Brad are far too fat to be popular.

I hope Rex and Ian have grown out their chest hair and gone full "dad" mode. Pics!

Are frosted tips still on trend?

Well kudos to them for doing something or anything to change the world.

What are they doing, again? They barely post anymore.

r340 OMG- At only 25 y/o Ian Spear was hospitalized and on a ventilator in an ICU after contracting Co-Vid19 last month.

Are he and Rex long distance now or still living together? I thought Rex was doing an MBA at Stanford--could he commute there from San Fran daily?

I wonder if that hospital pic is even real R341? I'm a cynical and jaded person so for me claiming to be infected and on a ventilator is the perfect opportunity for an Instaho to get back in the spotlight. Especially when your hospital pic is perfectly lit and you look great in it (except for the carefully cultivated beard.

Ian has pulled through and is back home!

R337 If you scroll through the link in R343's post just above, the 6th photo shows Ian with a hairy unshaven chest! Hawt! He's got such thick facial hair, I wondered if he could be naturally hairy. It can be hard to tell when guys are part Asian like Ian if they will be hairy or not.

They were reviewed this year in the Crimson. They even mention DataLounge.
