Andrew Christian Underwear Models Open Up About Coming Out for Pride Month

EDGE READ TIME: 1 MIN.

In honor of Pride Month, a few of Andrew Christian's underwear models, who also happen to be gay porn stars, shared their coming out stories in a new video.

In the clip underwear maker Andrew Christian, along with models Topher DiMaggio, Ryan Rose, Diego Sans, Jacob Ford and Matt O'Reilly, talk about their lives pre and post coming out as gay men. They discuss their journey of self-acceptance and accepting others in the 5-minute-and-30-second clip.

"For this year, we decided to share our own stories of how we came to have so much Pride," the video's description reads. "The road may not always be easy but it is always worthwhile to come out, be free, and find the love in the world. Hopefully by sharing our stories we are able to further inspire others and continue to help, as the song says, change the world."

In the clip, Diego Sans explains everyone "has a different experience" when coming out. Model and porn star Ryan Rose said he had friends and authority figures, like coaches, cut him out of their lives.

For others, it was a little easier.

"I've always been a little shit head, and kind of done what I want," Topher DiMaggio said. "The good thing is I've had the freedom to come out the way I want to come out...I had a choice whether I wanted to stay in the closet or be who I was, and I decided to do what I wanted.

"So I said, 'You know what? Mom and dad: I like boy!" DiMaggo added, mimicking making out with someone.
