Renzo by @pieroco5555
From a shy, bullied kid growing up in a conservative family in Chile to a two-time bodybuilding winner living openly in Spain, , Renzo has taken quite a journey. Today, he’s a barber, bodybuilder, dancer and porn creator, as well as a proud polyamorist who enjoys exploring all sides of himself. We talk to him about the body he’s built, the life he’s chosen, and what happened when he finally stopped trying to fit into someone else’s idea of who he should be.
Hello, my name is Renzo. I am a 36-year-old Latino guy, coming from the distant lands of Chile. I was born by the sea, so open landscapes, low temperatures, and places of contrast are deeply rooted in me.
I consider myself a sociable person, who loves debate and gossip, but, above all, who is passionate about listening to other people's experiences and learning about their perspectives on how they see the world. This is why it is also said that I am very good at listening, something that fits very well with one of the jobs I currently do, since, working as a barber, we act as psychologists and confidants. On the other hand, I am also a man of science, qualified as an engineer in environmental project management. I always like to learn more about deep and complex subjects, as well as about nature and, on the other hand, about transcendental topics, including the social sciences and other subjects of interest.
As a childhood dream, I always wanted to be a bodybuilder, but, due to circumstances in life, I was unable to do so at the time in my country. Today, proudly and at this stage of my life, I can say that, having already stepped on the competition stage twice (and I hope there will be many more times), I managed to win two first-place prizes that today define a part of my life which, more than a hobby, is my essence.
Everything I have described also led me to develop in aspects that, as a child, I never dared to explore, since at that time I was immersed in a very conservative family and society, where my obesity, my shyness, the bullying I suffered, and social expectations chained me in a certain way, while my spirit always longed to give my life a turn. Thus, today, after many ups and downs, therapy, and a long journey, I can say that I am not afraid to present myself to people authentically.
I am a guy who practices polyamory and bodybuilding, who loves the duality of being feminine and masculine at the same time and who, above all, supports those who seek to get to know themselves. For me, love is based on acceptance, freedom, responsibility —with oneself and with others—, on enjoying oneself and enjoying the process, but, above all, on letting go of the ego. Today I try to reflect this in my relationship with my husbands, in my work as a barber, in my work dancing in nightclubs, and in the porn content I create.
After the pandemic, my husbands and I moved to Europe, where we were able to step outside our comfort zone and begin to learn about the reality and culture of many other people, while continuing to seek our own self-fulfillment. It has been an experience that I would wish everyone could live, because it allows one to gain a broader perspective and learn to value both what one had and what still remains to be achieved.
I thank everyone who has read this far and invite you to continue moving toward a better understanding of yourselves so that you can also understand others and contribute to living in a kinder, freer, and more respectful society.
