Does Bukbuddies deliver what it promises on the outside?
This site promises the member a ton of video and photo sets of complete straight, amateur models with regular updates, and by-and-large it does deliver it. The member has a choice of about 100 models portfolios, and almost every model has a streaming video.
BukBuddies also offers video and other products through their online store, which appeared well constructed and easy to use.
What's good about Bukbuddies? What needs improvement?
The models are mostly big, muscled, gym-boy types in their mid- to late-20s. The photography is good (a 7.5 on a 10 scale), and the photo sets are creative--welcome diversity when some other sites offer only boys photos taken in the same four rooms with the same props. However if you like twinks, or asians, don't come here--you'll find only Caucasians and Afro-Americans, almost all muscular and well over 20.
The videos are availabe for viewing by Windows Media Viewer, so if you've got a Mac, or only have RealPlayer, you'll need to download the appropriate free software to view the videos, which wasn't a problem at all.
Most of the guys are rough and ready--very few "pretty boys" here--so if that's your thing, this site is perfect for you.
The navigation from photo set to photo set for a model was somewhat confusing. If there was anything undesirable on this site, this would be it. Each photo set has a descriptive name, and a new webpage to showcase the thumbnails, but there's not much order to it. Some models had "QwikPix" pages where all images were available to view in small, columned thumbnails at once, which was a lot easier to navigate, but it wasn't available for all models... which made me wonder why. Unlike some sites, BukBuddies doesn't have a one-click download of a Zip file for all the images for a model that you like... you have to slog through, clicking on a thumbnail and saving an image one at a time.
How is Bukbuddies unique?
BukBuddies caters to the gay man who loves "straight" men doing the strip tease, and jacking off on video and for photo sets. The BukBuddies are truly men in every sense of the word--rough, macho, muscular, big, often hairy, and athletic, and perform well. They are showcased well with good photography and good videography.
What do paying users recieve for their money?
You get a good amount of material for your membership dues. I'd rate the value as a 7 on a 10 scale for value.

105 Great Straight Men, over 50,000 megasized photos. NewsBoy's review 
May 13, 2005
The claim is that this site offers the biggest and best straight amateur men. I'm not sure I'd go quite that far, but it does deliver a lot of top quality content. Read full review

BukBuddies claim to offer the biggest, best photos of straight amateur males on the net. That is a slight exaggeration, but it is a very good site with many attractive models. There are so many of them, and their galleries are so large, that (if you like the type) you will spend quite some time on it. Read full review

Mackenzie's review 
December 4, 2004
This site features straight, muscular, hunky, some quite hairy young men. There are 94 models on this site, each with 4 to 8 themed galleries of many, many photos. Most of the photos show the models fully clothed, with nudity in just a few photos. Most are solos, but some duos are also shown, with another model from the site. Many of the photos are in outdoor locations, even the nude shots. All of the photos are good, clear pictures and very professionally posed. Read full review

For the longest time, I've adored this website, not only for its hunky models, but for the expansive preview section where potential members can browse through every single model before making a decision to delve further into the site. The models featured are REAL men, hunky, lanky, and all other types. Absolutely YUMMY Read full review
