Stallion Men is packed with over 120 galleries of hard-muscle, huge, beefcake men. If you like muscle men, you're going to spend hours inside this site. The men are fucking hot. There's a good cross-section of white, black and Latino muscle men. Stallion Men doesn't make a big deal about whether the models are gay or straight, in fact, they don't even mention it. Instead, Stallion Men simply lets the beautiful muscle men speak for themselves. They guys are Playgirl calibre. And the photo shoots range from the men working out to posing nude on the beach to hardcore jack off scenes, and everything in between. Some photo sets simply feature the muscle man in a bathing suit or jock strap, posing and flexing his muscles, while others are more hardcore.

Stallion Men is nicely designed with a blacks background and highlights of whites, greys, and oranges. Again they let the men stand out for themselves. There's no screaming come-on, just a lot of beautiful muscle men. In the free preview area there are three pictures of each new model along with a brief bio and a flag designating their nationality. The inside of the site is equally as easy to navigate with each model's thumbnail leading to his full gallery. The model's photos are divided into various photo shoots with different themes or shot by different photographers.

Stallion Men's muscle men is the stand out feature here. The men are gorgeous, big, and muscular. They're hot to look at and there's an equal amount of soft core and hardcore jack off photo sets. Most of these muscle men have video clips that you can download for an extra fee, and these are exclusive video shoots, so you won't find this stuff anywhere except in the Big Cock Society's family of sites. Aside from that, there's not really anything extra in the way of special features that stands out about this site.

While there are over 120 galleries and 12,000 pictures on Stallion Men, I found the pictures themselves to be on the small side (350 pixels wide by 500 pixels high). The good thing is that the site uses a frame navigation system, so each model's photos load in the center-page frame, and you simply choose the thumbnails from along each side of the enlargement. But Stallion Men has implemented a JavaScript that will prevent you from saving any images by right-clicking them. Now, I understand that content is expensive to produce and sites want to protect their exclusive material from being distributed; however, I hate cheap websites. If I have paid for a membership, I don't think it's outside of my realm of expectations to be able to save a picture to my computer and turn it into desktop wallpaper. I don't know why sites both with this kind of tactic anyway because simply clicking ALT + print screen on your keyboard will copy everything on your screen anyway and make it available to paste into your favourite graphics program. So they're really only stopping the less adventurous surfer. I think a better way of combating illegal distribution is to simply watermark the content. I don't mind staring at the Stallion Men logo in the corner of a picture of a beautiful and hot men.

The other thing I didn't like about Stallion Men was that their video clips are previews only, trailers really. If you want to see the full video clip, it's available as pay-per-view, which is $9.95 per clip. I think there are more palatable alternatives, like giving members a certain number of videos with their paid membership while cross-selling others. This pay-per-view aspect just seems like a muscular cash-grab.

In spite of the smaller pictures and the lack of substantial quantities of video, Stallion Men is a beautiful site and it's only $19.95 a month. The muscle men are hot and I definitely enjoyed looking at these beefcake men. And I would feel like I got fairly good value for my dollar. But rather than watching their pay-per-view movies, you may want to check out Take My Cum, which is their video download site. For less than the price of a DVD, you can download an exclusive video clip of many of these guys and others. And the video clip is yours to keep. So at least you're getting some extra value out of our dollar.
