Japanese firefighters suspended over gay porn

Two firemen in Osaka, Japan, have been suspended after their work in gay porn was exposed. 

The two 20-year-old men were scouted while out on a beach, and offered 10,000 yen (just over $100 USD) for a shoot later that day. They appeared in a couple more videos, and were promised each time that their faces would be obscured.

When the newest videos were released online, their faces were not obscured. The two complained, and the images were blurred.

But sadly it was too late, and some do-gooder (or angry ex) sent an e-mail to the city complaining. The men were suspended for taking part in disreputable acts and working at a second job, which is prohibited.

“Quite simply, this is prohibited behavior,” said Mayor Kazunori Doi. “I want to work to restore the people’s confidence in all staff members of the municipal government.”

Because who wants to be saved from a burning house by a former porn star?
