Amish Men
Has anyone here ever been with one? I'm guessing that they're all hung, because of their Dutch heritage.
I've been bingeing on re-runs of "Return to Amish," and it's now my guilty pleasure.
Those guys belong in the "dumb but hung" thread, because they look like they can throw a mean f***.

They're mostly Swiss German at least in Pennsylvania. They are not Dutch. Dutch Country comes from Deutsch which is German. Many of the boys at the farmers markets come down from PA. They are really cute, blond and curly haired.

I shared a train with a bunch of Amish on their way to Rumspringa. The guys were all really fit, beard free, good looking lads, and the men were all portly and had huge beards. They were watching TV in the lounge and eating candy bars!

I remember watching a British documentary on the Amish. If they ever step outside the normal parameters of their traditional lifestyle, or, if they rebel, then they will be exiled from the community. This can last for months or years and only a vote by the religious elders can allow them back in. If they really transgress however then they'll be completely banished and forced to leave for good. This can be devastating, as many of them have absolutely no real outside skills, and are completely clueless about living in the modern world. They don't even begin to learn English until they attend school and the children and adults mostly speak an obscure German dialect from the eighteenth century which is known as high German or Pennsylvania Dutch.

I've met many in my travels around my state (Ohio), which has the largest Amish population in the US (even more than Pennsylvania). They've always been unfailingly polite in interactions with me (they call us 'The English', although my ancestors were also German), but within their own communities, things are a bit darker. There are online communities of ex-Amish people, sharing stories about incest, pedophilia and alcoholism within their communities. Very sad to me. I was raised in a pretty strict Roman Catholic family, but my parents always made it clear that I had free will, and they would raise me as a Catholic, but it was my decision how I would then live my life.
The young men I've met at different farm stands and small stores have generally been rather handsome in a way that's hard to describe. You know how we sometimes see these old newsreels and Shorpie photos of men from 100 years ago? That's the look that some of them have: handsome without any awareness of it, teeth a bit crooked, no spray tans, no highlighted hair or tattoos. Just healthy men in their natural element. And the young ladies are really great, too. Smart and funny, but very reserved. It reminds me how rarely I see 'femininity' now in my life, and how much power there is in it. Sort of like that scene in 'La Femme Nikita' with Jeanne Moreau. I'm a gold star gay, but one of those girls could wrap me around their finger.
My best memory of Amish guys (in this case, not Amish, but Mennonite, who are related), were a couple of young guys swimming at a lake during a picnic at a large state park a few counties away. They were actually wearing something like those old swim suits from the 20s (I think they may have been modern wrestling tights), and you could see every bulge and ripple, and no one batted an eye (except for me, who had to hide the hunger in my eyes from the sweet lads).

A big problem for the Amish today is farmland. Even though a lot of them leave the community, their numbers are always increasing due to them having so many children. They also have surprisingly good medical care(child mortality is virtually non-existent)due to an excellent mandatory health insurance scheme. Because of this many of the younger ones are finding it harder to own their own farms due to the archaic way they are run. They don't use any modern machinery and they're so labour intensive that even the largest ones are basically subsistence.
The more children they pump out the less land there is to go around and the farms are becoming smaller and less unprofitable. That's why you see so many of them trying to run businesses. They can no longer afford keep the farms running like they used to but change is impossible due to their religion and lifestyle.

R17, Thanks for that. There are a lot of misunderstandings here in the US about the Amish, Mennonites and Hutterites. There are now many Amish men who basically are working in factories, since the farm isn't enough, building 'Amish-built' wood furniture, for example. They just rely on other people to run many of their business interests with 'The English', which leaves them vulnerable to exploitation. 'Witness' wasn't a documentary, of course. The real thing is a lot more......real. But I'm grateful for my exposure to their culture, and worry about it dying out. My state was also home to some of the largest Shaker colonies in the US, which are now functionally extinct.

It's amazing how many of them there are now. They were down to a population of about ten thousand in the early 1930s and the population today stands at about 230,000. Apparently the reason why their number declined before WW2 was due to so many of the young were leaving the community. However the opposite is now happening, more and more are staying and getting married. They have huge families and that's why the population is exploding.

There was a reality show with a bunch of amish 20 somethings - the show was called Amish in the City on UPN in 2004. It was sort of real world meets big brother. At the end the kids decided either to go back or not, I remember a few girls did not go back but the boys did.

They have all kinds of ways to try and get around the rules. For example: they can't have any electricity in their homes, but it's okay to have a mains electrical outlet in a shed or barn, as long as it's not attached to the house. Many of the men do this and have TVs, DVDs and computers all set up like everybody else. They also stash old clunkers in barns and use them when they think they can get away with it.
However, farming is dying among the Amish. Without farming their whole lifestyle and religion could vanish. In the old days it not only allowed them to provide for their familes, but it also made it possible for the majority to keep themselves separate from the outside world. Sadly, many of the Amish are now having to work regular jobs, run businesses, or pander to the tourist trade to make ends meat, which is increasingly affecting their communities. The more they have to open up to the outside world the more their culture is being slowly eroded away.

I went through Lancaster PA last year with my parents. Really learned a lot about the Amish surprise the reality shows really distorted things and had misinformation. There is a lot of variation even among the PA Amish on what they can and can't do. There are over 200 Amish churches in the area and each has their own unique set of rules.

I grew up amongst the Amish. We had hitching posts at every business in my town.
They go to school only through the eighth grade, so their book learning is pretty limited. During Rumspringa, the boys would crash out "English" parties in high school, getting blotto drunk and trying to make out with the girls. They smelled like dirt and sweat up close. Not necessarily B.O., but just stale sweat.
Nowadays, the Amish in Holmes Co., Ohio, run notoriously cruel puppy mills.

Due to intermarriage and decreased genetic diversity, the Amish have a number of autosomal recessive conditions that are quite common in their community. Severe combined immunodeficiency is a big problem in the Amish now. It is the "bubble boy" condition. Very expensive to treat.

The Amish are a puzzle wrapped inside an enigma wrapped inside a mystery and part of what makes them oddly interesting is that they realize it and don't fully understand what makes they themselves "tick". Their young people can indulge in "Rumspringa", roughly a "sowing of wild oats" which to them include using electronic devices and driving cars or trucks, because they are not baptized into the church yet. Once young men and women are baptized and married they are expected to settle down into the ways of the church, a self-denying (gelassenheit) Christian life which not only follows Biblical teaching as they interpret it but that of the Ordnung as well. Men are expected then to have a beard but no mustache as that is evocative of thing military to them, which is a sin since they are complete pacifists similar to the Quakers. Their hair length and haircuts must conform to centuries old regulations as well as the width of the brims of their hats. It is true there is some variation from church to church and bishop to bishop, but the Ordnung basically remains unchanged. As the search for farmland becomes more difficult with the ever larger numbers of each generation, the Amish have been expanding into states where they have never been seen before, including Florida if I am not mistaken. And yes, some men have had to take a variety of jobs, usually unskilled, juxtaposing them alongside people they would rather avoid. Some women take on day labor cleaning houses of "English" people or if they live on farms located more along main roads, they will sell butter and/or eggs for some extra money or will open up small businesses usually in farmer's markets selling their almost always excellent baked goods, especially pies. Someone upthread mentioned the Shakers who technically still exist although there are fewer than 10 left, the youngest being in their 60s and are located in Sabbathday Lake, Maine. There are also, if I am not mistaken, some Amish churches/communities also in Maine. Shakers are NOT Amish nor are they Quakers but they are pacifists and welcome modern devices such as computers. During Rumspringa, Amish young people can play around with computers, but when they make the decision to be baptized, join the church and get married, computers must be "put away". How do I know all this? I am from Pennsylvania where the Amish have been an integral, yet separate, part of the culture and I have read a few books as well as articles online about their way of life and religion, plus my maternal great grandmother was a Mennonite under which religious category the Amish loosely fall.

Amish people have had to accept some degree of electricity, usually in the form of batteries or generators (they usually adamantly refuse to hook up to an electrical grid) partly because modern sanitary regulations for dairy products demand pasteurization which means, usually, electricity to heat the milk to the degree necessary to kill bacteria. Otherwise the Amish are often well known for having high quality raw dairy products. If some of the men decide to hook up the generator to TVs or radios in the barn, then they might have to answer for it, but if such goings on are found in the house then the consequences might be more serious. If young people decide to drive cars during Rumspringa they are usually asked to park it well away from the house.

Yes, fewer than 10 individuals r35. They rely solely on proselytizing their beliefs as sex is considered a sin, so, no "little Shakers" to grow up in the faith. During the 19th century before the Civil War they numbered around 5000 in something like 15 communities from Maine to Kentucky. Only the one in Maine still exists--one of their noted products is herbal seasoning combinations. As with the Amish, their history is a fascinating one as well. It is thought that the Shakers will cease to exist in this century.

I see plenty of them in Ohio (I have family and friends who live in the Cleveland area). Some of the young men are certainly strapping, but I think that you would be hard pressed to find many porn-worthy Amish boys running around. I find them to be generally friendly if not all that talkative. You can visit the "Amish country" (certain towns that have restaurants and shops that peddle their woodcrafts. The food that I have tried was generally bad and they charge a hefty price for what you get. Ditto their baked goods. I will say that they make some of the tastiest butter that you will ever find outside of France. I am not a fan of their furniture either. I suppose that it is worth seeing once. Be ready to drive 7 miles an hour when you get stuck behind and along side horse-drawn carriages on those two lane roads. Many of the boys (14 to 25 yoa or so) work landscaping/roofing/carpentry type gigs all over the city and you will see a few hot ones here and there (the 18 and up of course). The fun fact is that they can use anything electronic whatsoever when it pertains to work. Iphones, Ipads, little TVs, microwaves (to heat food), etc. are abundant around these work crews. I assume that they are taken away when they return home. On their breaks, these kids look like a gaggle of Millenials glued to their smart phones.

I grew up in Pennsylvania north of Amish country, and my mother, who has lived a very sheltered and small life, was mildly fascinated by the Amish. We would take “vacations” to Amish country when I was growing up. 4 or 5 hours in the car to stay at a motel and go to Dutch Wonderland (yes, an Amish themed amusement park). Several vacations as a boy were spent there. Mind you, the scenery was not altogether different from where we lived to begin with. Farmland and mountains...
I wonder if there is any real Amish gay porn.

That would be sort of amusing to see r38, Amish kids staring at smart phones in the Amish clothing and hats. The Schwartzentruber Amish are the hard core types who prefer to use only wood or coal burning stoves (no bottled gas), absolutely NO electricity even in battery form and no cell phones let alone any phones, even if kept in a shed and communally owned.

NW Pennsylvanian here, I have spent some time around the Amish, both work and non-work related. They generally do not lead the totally innocent lifestyle that tv etc. portrays them to live. Some of the Amish have even been involved in the drug trade, including "renting" their very rural land to mobile drug labs. I think this is now pretty much under control but about 10-15 years ago it was a big problem in this area. Amish men have no trouble finding work outside their community, at least in this area, they mostly do roofing/construction and are in high demand as they do quality work for reasonable prices. It's not uncommon to see middle-school age boys (sometimes possibly younger) up on top of roofs around there.
Yes some of them are very good looking. At the very rural auction places the men and boys all congregate there year round, in the summer sometimes women and girls come to sell baked good and produce but the girls never come in the winter. One thing about the Amish is that they are very resilient. I remember many times arriving in literally 5 degree weather, -15 with windchill, where I literally ran the 30 feet from my car to the front door and I was practically convulsing from the cold. Not the Amish! Even the young boys all sitting around on benches outside, like it's a balmy 80 degrees out. If you're not familiar with Amish clothing, google it, they wear a thin denim-like jacket and black felt or straw hat that does NOT keep you warm, no gloves, no warm hat, no scarf, no warm boots, nope! They hang around outside like that for long periods of time in arctic temperatures, chatting and smoking their hand-rolled cigarettes, they never shiver or look cold at all. Then they come inside, you never see them coughing or sniffling with runny noses. They are like teflon in cold temperatures. And their children are the most well-behaved that you will find anywhere, and they seem very happy.
They buy a lot of stuff, they seem to have a lot of expendable cash. Once I saw two teen Amish boys sliding porno magazines from a box lot under their jackets haha! Many Amish have cell phones. The ones I have been close to in proximity pretty much smelled like cigarettes and laundry detergent, they must all use the same type of detergent, it has a distinct scent, maybe because they hang dry everything? That's the best I can explain it. I have never smelled it anywhere else. And again, yeah some of them are really good looking.

OMG, r41, I am from NW PA too (originally)--are you from the Meadville or Erie area? I am from Erie originally but left there many years ago and live in another state now (as far as I'm concerned Erie, PA is a good place to be FROM). In the late 70s and early 80s my mother went to a hospital in Meadville (Spencer??) for allergy treatments. Afterwards they often went to the farmer's market there where an Amish family had a lunch counter with really good pies and baked goods, some of which they brought home. I knew that there were/are quite a few Amish people in Crawford County, also New Wilmington, farther south toward Pittsburgh is quite a center of Amish life, farming and activity.

Never knew about the drugs among a few(?) of them r41, but did know about cigarettes being no big deal among at least some of them. I was shocked when I saw an Amish guy smoking a cigarette. It's just not something one would expect from them. A Quaker friend of mine who did alternative service during the Korean War at a mental hospital became friends with an Amish young man. He confirmed that as long as electrical appliances belong to someone else, they are OK with being asked to operate them as this Amish guy was often told to buff the hospital corridor floors with an electric buffer. He kept in touch with him through the years, including visiting him and his wife (with whom there was a certain tension as she realized he was gay). He said that in the Amish houses during the winter, temps are at best cool if not outright cold as they are, for one thing, not hooked up to any natural gas lines and if the house they acquired was, the line is shut off and wood stoves and fireplaces are sparingly used. That might explain, at least to some extent, why Amish kids might be more used to more extreme "coolness".

Apparently they sometimes take the Christian idea of the body being a kind of temple for the "indwelling of the Lord" rather lightly r45. I would imagine they buy tobacco and papers to roll it in from grocery or drug stores everybody else patronizes; they often hire "English" drivers of vans to take groups of their women, usually, to grocery stores to buy things they don't grow, can or make themselves although I have read and heard that some in Pennsylvania in the Lancaster County area do grow their own tobacco and cure it themselves. Some, if they get cancer, come to San Diego and cross into Tijuana where there are inexpensive herbal treatments available for cancer which at least some prefer rather than going to more conventional doctors.

There's a lot of sexual abuse abuse that goes on among the Amish. I think that Eli Stutz guy claimed that one of the reasons he turned out the way he did was due to him being raped when he was a child by an Amish minister. The other problem is that they can't turn to outside law enforcement, and the practice of "confession and forgiveness" lets the abusers of the hook.

The Amish will rule America, eventually. They're 100% resistant to attacks on our power grid. They have 10-20 children a family. They consolidate property and build houses on the land and care for multiple generations on it. It's to the point where many Amish families are so land and resources rich, you wouldn't know they're all technically multi-millionaires. They're self-reliant and know every archaic homesteading skill ever created by man.
The Amish will rule America and perhaps...THE WORLD. Mark my words.

You're right, r62. They're all pretty funky because they only bathe at the most once a week. When you factor in all the hard physical labour that they do then it's not surprising that they tend to smell a little on the ripe side. I suppose it's hard for the majority of them, as they don't have access to heated running water and the only way they can bathe is to draw it up from the well and heat it up on a stove.
None of the above lends itself to good hygiene.

As bad as some of the Amish can be many of the Mennonite communities are far worse(doesn't anyone remember the ghost rapes in Bolivia). Those communities are completely cut off and rape, incest, beatings, abuse and serious pedophilia run rampant. The people can't even seek help from the authorities, as corrupt poverty stricken Bolivia has given the Mennonite townships like Manitoba carte blanche to run their own affairs, with only nominal interference from the authorities. The only reason the ghost rapes came to light was due to the seriousness of the offences, and the fact that the community leaders couldn't cover it up anymore.

The ghost rapes of Bolivia is a small window into the chaotic world of these types of communities.
Child abuse is rampant in the Amish/Mennonites communities. IMO the government is doing a terrible job in handling the Amish. Lost of unreported crime there throughout the Americas.

I dated a Mennonite for a couple of years. He and his brothers were all cut. So, while the Amish don't circumcise, the Mennonites do.

What keeps them in such a restrictive lifestyle? I suppose it's limited education, familial bonds, and an aversion to allowing outsiders access to the community. You'd think though that with all the access many now have to modern technology that they'd be able to do a little research on how their religion is based on a twisted version of the bible. I'm not religious but I think that all this none-sense about forcing the women to grow their hair long and make the men wear beards is stupid and easily disproved.

[quote]in the Amish houses during the winter, temps are at best cool if not outright cold as they are, for one thing, not hooked up to any natural gas lines
This must vary by sect, because my Amish neighbors in Ohio used gas to heat their homes (no fireplaces) and to heat their water (they had regular tubs and bathed regularly).
My uncle had some weird childhood grudge against the Amish and would harass them during the World's Largest Yard Sale in Seville every summer. Fortunately, he was usually too drunk to get out of his lawn chair and restricted his abuse to verbal slurs about them. It was always aimed at Amish women who were looking at baby items. They ignored him while the rest of us writhed in embarrassment.

R72 I also survived rural Ohio. My dad would drive the roads of Wayne and Holmes Co and buzz buggies if they did not get off the road all the way. He figured that since they did not pay taxes on gas, which fund roads in Ohio, they should not be on them when cars needed to get by.
My step-father is former Amish. His kids – my step-brothers – are Mennonite. They went to Bluffton College. One's wife went to Goshen College, another Mennonite school in Indiana.
And, yes, Amish in that area use natural gas. There is a table in the link that shows which things different orders of Amish can use.

I was repeatedly raped by an entire Amish family during Christmas! Even the grandmother! All I wanted was a hand-crafted, artisanal chair to go in my bedroom!

Why do so many of them stay in the community? According to what I've read over 85% stay and raise families. The women have no real rights and the men are limited in what they can and can't do so why don't more of them leave.
I have heard it said that surprisingly, many of the Amish families have a fairly high standard of living and some of the farmland is worth millions. However, a lot of the others have to work regular jobs just to make it, yet they persist with the lifestyle so what makes them stay.

There's a genetic disease they have in Pennsylvania called Maple Syrup something.... because of all the inbreeding. Their urine smells and looks like maple syrup...

They have a huge problem with inherited genetic diseases due to inbreeding. The main problem for the Amish is that unlike the Mennonites(who've bred with outsiders to a certain extent)they've always been incredibly insular, never allowing converts or outsiders to join their communities. Because of this you might have tens of thousands of Amish, but the majority of them share a genetic history with less than eighty family groups who made up the original founder population. They're also losing genetic diversity and becoming more inbred. Many families are also related to each other and the entire community as a whole have distant ancestors in common so the problem is only going to get worse.

I can't think of a worse circumstance to be born into if you're gay. The only case I've read about was a kid who grew up in the strictly conservative Swartzentruber community. He was severely beaten by his father and had to leave his family when he was only fourteen.

The original group of 200 Amish who arrived here in the 1700s have now grown to 300,000. Because of inbreeding there are congenital problems. They refuse blood tests, so have no idea how closely related future brides and grooms are to each other.

Some Amish use solar panels on roofs of buggies for the rear lights. Because the power is generated by the Sun (God), it isn't considered using modern technology.

At a New York Gay Pride March in the early 90s, a group of Amish carried a banner "Out of the Barns and Into the Bars."

[quote]They have all kinds of ways to try and get around the rules.
Until recently there was an Amish man who worked for my mother's husband. He lived an hour-plus away, so they had to go pick him up and take him home (they were crazy about him, btw). But in the community where he lives, the Amish drive tractors on the road. My mom says they've turned up the engine or something where they go faster than a tractor normally would. Basically a substitute for cars and trucks, so it definitely seems like a workaround that's not strictly on the level.
And where they live, it's very hot in the summertime, and my mom asked, How do you stand it in this house? And the guy winked and said, "Oh, I've got air."

There was a TV show called Amish Mafia and one of the guys on it was named John Schmucker. There's a pic of him standing nude online and he's hung like a beast. Someone posted it here in of the big dick threads.

I've always admired the simplicity of their ways. I too have often fantasised spending a weekend at an Amish farm or B&B. I love history, antiques, and romanticise the past to an extent, so I find them alluring. It's a shame about the genetic disorders. Their unique skills and handicrafts are very impressive.

The Canadian Amish and Mennonites are notoriously cheap and anti-government but will grab as much gov't money as they can.

I knew two guys of Amish descent - parents had left the lifestyle. Both were absolutely stunning, tall, blond, with huge feet and fingers. Many fantasies. And total sweetheart guys too. But totally straight.

Once ran into a 17ish blond adonis who had obviously put in a full day's work somewhere (construction?), and was in a supermarket in my neighborhood buying some grub. He stunk so bad it made my eyes water -- in other words, a dilemma. I mean, it was like the monkey cage at the zoo in the middle of August. But wow, I'll never forget that boy's beauty.

They do have bad body odor. Plus they have illnesses and maladies seen in groups with a lot of inbreeding. One grisly disease is one where their urine smells strongly of maple syrup.

R70. Neither the Amish nor the Mennonites circumcise. You must have run into the few who were sliced. Most men are all natural.

I live in Iowa and there's a large Amish and Mennonite population nearby. I go to the spring auction every year and can tell you that the men smell to HIGH heaven. Another thing is that they used to steal pets and sell them to the University when they did animal testing!

I liked Seth Green's take on a bitchy deadpan Amish dude. Quoth he: "I miss sarcasm; it's mostly lost on my people. And gambling - I went to Vegas once, have a loooot of nice memories there..." (and btw this line was originally 'butt-fucking' rather than 'gambling' in the original uncut script...).
That was in SEX DRIVE (2008), the same underrated comedy that brought us James Marsden as the world's hottest homophobic Gay Jock Jerk. There's a great scene where the protags in that movie all crash an Amish encampment and get wasted ("UHHHHHHHHHHH, RUMSPRINGA!!!!!!").
And that's all I know about Amish.
