Hi, I'm the Gecko and I’ve spent more than twenty-five years inside the adult entertainment industry.
Long enough to understand what fades — and what endures.

Bodies come and go. Names blur. Faces are replaced.
But marks… marks remain.

Physically, I’ve always stood out. Built, proportioned, unmistakable. That alone earned attention early on, but attention is not legacy. Legacy requires a symbol — something that people remember even when the lights are off and the masks are on.

The mark came accidentally. Or perhaps inevitably.

Years ago, backstage between scenes, I stepped out of a bathroom without thinking — relaxed, unguarded, exactly as I was. Another actor looked up, laughed, and said:

“Damn. Last time I saw a log that size, it had a green and yellow gecko on it.”

The room laughed. I didn’t.
I paused.

Because in that moment, something clicked.

The gecko isn’t loud. It doesn’t chase.
It watches. It waits. It holds position until the outcome is already decided.

Ink followed intention.

The tattoo wasn’t shock for shock’s sake. It wasn’t novelty. It was ownership. Permanence. Control made visible. Once it existed, there was no separating the symbol from the man. Attention multiplied. The internet noticed. The mark became conversation. The conversation became mythology.

That was the birth of Meat the Gecko — long before the mask.

With time came perspective. With perspective came restraint. And eventually, reinvention.

I stepped away, then returned — not as a face…
