Welcome To The Petch Gallery

Gentlemen, allow me this little indulgence to share with you the history of HX:MAN. Not too long ago, I was a very broken man. No job, no money, earned myself the worst credit ratings, my lousy ex-landlord kicked me out from my apartment and towards the end, I was tip-toeing on the perimeter of clinical depression. All that we are is the result of what we have thought, so said the Great Buddha. Inspired by this most invaluable wisdom, I decided to take control of my life. Employing my business management skills I acquired from school with little sparks of imagination, I challenged myself to market, capitalize and make money from the only precious commodity I have left: Myself. Even back then, I knew exactly how I want to run my business and my marketing strategy was straightforward: simplicity. If you have been an ardent follower of my website, you must remember still that I was the only guy who clearly stated my services in detail and was he only one who had the balls to advertise my real photos with my head attached. The rest either posted headless, mostly hot but questionable bodyshots or required you to make upfront credit card payments to view their “boys” photo. Right then, I decided that I may not be proud of what I was doing but the least I could do was to run my business with honesty and integrity. I understood what the customers wanted, respected their consumer-power intelligence by offering precise outright service choices with honest “no-hidden-costs” price plans and they responded positively to my no-nonsense business approach. That was my unique selling point, and it will always maintain this way. The rest, like they always say, is history. Here, you will get to discover and appreciate some interesting facts about HX:MAN. For starters, HX:MAN was originally conceived as “Man-To-Man Action Personal Services” with “Platinum” as the subsidiary outfit offering the higher-valued services to high-net worth customers. I decided that the brand itself was ”too-much-of-a-mouthful” and was later re-branded as “ASIAN.MALE” (which I soon concluded unsuitable because it somewhat sounded “too generic”).

HX:MAN is not a medium for me to prove that I am in any way better than any one of you here. Let's try to forget about all my horny photos that you are about to see for now. Now, let me share with you something less slutty, more inspiring, with the moral of the story at the end of this paragraph. We all know Sir Richard Branson, surely, probably Britian's most flamboyant maverick who founded Virgin. Interestingly, do you know that he started his first business growing Christmas trees(!) and a pigeon growing farm(!!) at the tender age of 15?!!! Of course he failed in his initial ventures but just imagine, had he given up all his dreams back then, any reference to “Virgin” in today's context would categorically means the nuns, the asexual seahorses and the few disturbing guys who are still safekeeping their mantools for God-knows-what. My point is, in this lifetime, be it your personal or professional life, be brave. Be very brave. Without sounding too old, may I say Fortes fortuna adjuvat, now that's Latin for you which translates to Fortune favours the Brave. Don't leave everything to Fate; start taking control of your life. Effectively manage your own problems because in the real world, no one else gives a fuck regardless what they might tell you. Chase your dreams, even if it means you have to crawl on all fours, although I wouldn't recommend you to kickstart your own HX:MAN-equivalent. Never regret all the choices you'd made because regret is one useless bitchy emotional tool. And never, ever procrastinate in this lifetime because it is important that you simply have to trust me on this one: When the time comes, you, me and everyone else here will finally end up at the same destination...in a wooden box six-feet underground. Well, actually if you don't mind me being anal here (yes, pun intended!), depending on your Faith, it might turn out to be a very big, hot oven for you but hey, I'm sure you see the point here. I need everyone to understand that YOU are the master of your own destiny. Enjoy life because you only have this lifetime. You might not agree with me now but believe me, when you are 80, you'll tell yourself Hey, that Petch guy was right! I should have taken his advice...So, that's the moral of the story, folks. And the other moral of the story is: Petch may be a very, very naughty boy but most importantly, he is a very, very, very good boy at heart. And smart, and funny, and sexy, and romantic, and a good manfucker, and ...
