Is there an updated list of non-bareback companies?
While I want to keep on top of all news - I cannot keep up with the bareback trend as it made a major boom this last year.
Is there, or, could we compile a non-bareback studio list?
-
Adding: If studio A doesn't do bareback but they own studio b who does - studio A is not a non-bareback studio.
That will make your list much shorter.Quote:

There are a handful of companies who shoot bareback "only with committed couples" which, as far as I'm concerned, is still bareback... that's a loophole you can drive a truck through, so I personally wouldn't consider them non-bareback.
Then there's also companies that don't produce bareback but sell bareback movies which I find equally agregious as they are still a profiteer of bareback porn.
You can add to the list of condom only studios/producers with no known bareback ties:
Colt/Buckshot
Lucas Entertainment
AMG
Latino Fan Club (I'm fairly sure on this one)
Massive
Lucas Kazan
Kink.com (I'm pretty sure of this one as well.)
Studios that are not producing bareback themselves, but are selling or profiting from bareback are:
Hot House- selling bareback DVDs on their website.
Raging Stallion/Pistol Media- They own GAYDVD.com which sells bareback DVDs. Gunzblazing.com their affiliate program promotes and sells Hotbarebacking.com memberships. Hardgayfeeds.com their webmaster content site sells HDK and TIM feeds. Sorry Brian but gotta be honest here.
Jet Set -Owned by Marina Pacific, one of the bigger bareback distributors
You can also add to the list every single VOD company, as they have all succumbed to the pressure of profit.
You can add ThaiTwink Productions to the list.
We are condum only producers.

"My name is circulating on this list, and I can't work now. I need a front..."
I thought you of all people would have a broader knowledge of studios not filming bareback or benefiting from selling it.
You can add me to your list.

Ethan:
I believe Bel Ami is now selling bareback online only.
Since we don't feature fucking of any kind... we're not a bareback studio, either.
So add Fratmen to the list.
oh wow... i feel out of the loop now. Learn something new everyday i guess, heh, thanks guys!Quote:

WTF
Bel Ami does sell bareback titles on the PPV and VOD sites. At least, that's what our contract with them says.Quote:

And, it's too funny to look at some of the posters who are so anti bareback yet, under different names, they either belong to our affiliate program or have sites with many of the VOD companies and make their percentage from the sales of bareback films. But, don't worry, my lips are sealed.

Please do tell Bill, I would love to hear it. I am not trying to cover for anyone, you must have information that I do not.
If you want to play "3 degrees of Kevin Bacon bareback" then I'm sure you could link just about everyone in the industry to bareback in some way. As an example we have "ties" to Marina Pacific and GayDVD.com, they both purchase our DVDs at wholesale and re-sell them.
I completely agree that it is hypocritical for people to say they won't film bareback themselves, but they will gladly sell and profit from it in other ways. Especially the ones that try and hide it in the background under different company names.

As for divulging who on that list own or co-own, or in some other way have a financial interest in producing and profiting from bareback films, it isn't my place to say. Anymore than I would ever divulge the HIV status of anyone without their permission.
Bill
Thank-you Bill. While we may not agree on the commercialization of bareback issue, I respect that you have the balls to stand up for what you believe in.
My issue with your posting is that by insinuating that "a couple of the studios" on the list are profiting from bareback, but not giving names or evidence to support it, you put the entire list under suspicion. That's just not fair to everyone else on the list.
Revealing a company's bareback business ties are very, very different than revealing someone's HIV status. What you do as a business entity is fair game, whereas someone's personal health history is not.
Best of luck with your move.

Bump - I would like to see if we can get more sites listed. I think it would, could be of some help to a few people. Myself included.

Falcon
Colt/Buckshot

In Question
If you know of a company who shouldn't be on the main list, explain.
Kink.com is a condom only studio.Quote:

Randy Blue does not produce bareback. Please add us to your list as well.
Are you talking about studios that produce DVDs or studios that produce content for the web as well?
We at BlakeMason produce our own content and do not produce bareback and never will.
KM Studios is also a condom-only studio, apart from one VOD title release last year.
