His op-ed piece for XBIZ World is about bridging straight and LGBT stardom and building careers in both worlds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBridging Straight &amp; LGBT Stardom: How I Built a Career in Both Worlds Simultaneously\u201d is Dante\u2019s op-ed piece for XBIZ World. Dante is an anomaly in the adult industry in the sense that he didn\u2019t feel pressured to work only in straight or LGBT studios. Male performers are held to a different standard than women when it comes to same-sex scenes, and Dante looks into why this is the case. After first starting as a gay contract star for a major studio, he paved his own path working in all genres, and hopes this will become the norm for male talent in the industry looking to expand their horizons. Dante also discusses the stigmas and why things need to change and what he has personally done to not only succeed but also thrive. The piece raises many points the industry should really think about when viewing other performers and casting talent in productions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI\u2019m hoping my op-ed piece really makes people think, and brings about change in the industry,\u201d says Dante Colle. \u2018It would be great to see more male performers walking the path that I did and not being afraid to spread their wings and perform in multiple genres.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBridging Straight &amp; LGBT Stardom: How I Built a Career in Both Worlds Simultaneously\u201d is available in the online\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.xbiz.com\/pub\/xbizworld\/2021-01\/\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.xbiz.com\/pub\/xbizworld\/2021-01\/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1610198565120000&amp;usg=AFQjCNHrsnm7CQs3ih8mAm-1en7K74ijGA\">xbiz.com\/pub\/xbizworld\/2021-01<\/a>\u00a0and print editions of the January 2021 issue of XBIZ World.
