gay-for-pay
Straight, professionally flexible
Gay-for-pay describes a person, typically a man, who identifies as heterosexual but performs in gay pornography or engages in same-sex acts for money.
The term emphasizes that the behavior is transactional rather than reflective of sexual orientation: He's straight but does gay-for-pay scenes on the side.
The label is sometimes used skeptically, implying the person may not be as heterosexual as claimed.
