Shifting Gears: A Bisexual Transmission
Cameron Marshall, however, was not a gold star gay man upon appearing in the film. An interviewer with the gay newspaper "Between the Lines" implies that Marshall performs heterosexual sex well enough in "Shifting Gears" that it seems like Marshall has had sex with women before, commenting "you have sex with a chick. You looked like you had done it before." In response, Marshall stated that he has had sex with women because he dated women and had girlfriends until he was 20, before switching over to dating men exclusively. Having entered gay porn at age 20 and having made "Shifting Gears" at age 22, it had been 2 years since Marshall had slept with a woman. At the time of filming "Shifting Gears" Marshall considered himself to be gay because, although he lost his virginity to a woman and had "fun" dating women, he was now "over it" and only dated men.
