Sorry you feel that way. Jesse has been our exclusive for 2-1/2 years. He hasn't shot any new content in 2 years. He visited AJ and I in December as a friend, not to shoot new content (sorry, Brian!) and we got the idea of shooting the PSA while we were tossing around ideas about how we could make a difference. That's why it's rather thrown together... little production time or planning, just a first cut at an idea.Quote:

As a man that has HIV for half of my life, I have never seen a more uneducated spokesman to get your point across. Jesse may have good intentions but he just sounds like he started working in hiv/aids field last week.
He said that choosing safe content helps to keep models safe, and promotes healthier sexual practices. He didn't say it was "bad." Jesse is generally very careful about using neutral and positive language as a result of his counseling training.Quote:
Also what you have in this "PSA" is a kid saying to other guys his age not to buy something that is "bad to see"
We have seen time and time again that if you tell people that you should not buy this or that because it is wrong to do that. people come looking to see what they are missing!! I cant understand why you would do that unless you own a bareback line too.

You may want to say instead of "dont buy this" is "buying condom videos will help promote a safer sex lifestyle.
[/QUOTE]
I think that's what he did say.
Agreed, and I'm getting a lot of ideas that Pat (our filmmaker/editor) and AJ and I and Jesse will all make use of.Quote:
That said I am all for PSA's. We have one at the start of all of our videos.
but you should make it a real PSA about the health and well being of your audience. because in the real world there is just as much chance of people not using protection while seeing any video. Yours or mine.
I hope this is helpful.
Looks like you're venturing into the realm of being a bottom sugar daddy :develish:Quote:

the information is out there for those who have the initiative to read up and educate themselves on current information...
seattle's web page on serosorting is impressive. very easy to find practical info and answers to basic questions.

San Francisco's is not as impressive and a little confusing but none the less, addresses the issues

Thanks very much. I haven't done much research other than a brief look at the medical literature on the reinfection issue about a year ago. I will definitely read through these and ask Jesse to do so also.Quote:
