Bareback- Give me a Break

[Seth]

I've seen several recent posts regarding bareback sex and it's time I chime in on the whole bareback issue...

We film a lot of bareback videos and it is at least 80% of our revenue.

Unlike some companies, we have a strict policy of filming only committed partners and/or guys who already fuck bareback.

Our top affiliates make several thousand dollars every month promoting our bareback videos because they understand what converts and have little problem with the ethical issues because of our policies.

As we state on our disclosure page (http://barebackplace.com/safer_sex/index.htm):

"All performers engaging in bareback anal sex on this site are either committed couples and/or already engage in bareback anal sex with each partner."

Every bareback video on our sites are of committed couples who fuck bareback or are guys who already fuck bareback with each other and have no problem doing so again on video.

We have never set up two or more strangers to engage in bareback sex. With that said, we do not prominently state such. Doing so will certainly take away from the fantasy of the horny surfer.... and yes it IS about the profit. Believe me, I understand the concern regarding bareback sex among gay men but being horny is not an excuse for a legal ADULT to make irrational decisions.

Additionally, we are currently building a straight porn directory and of the thousands of sites I've seen so far, I can literally count on fewer than my hands and toes the sites that promote safer sex or at least show obvious use of condoms in their tours. I mean give me a break... How can literally 65 guys deposit their loads in one girl and that be considered safe sex.

I'm sure there will be more discussion regarding this topic as it seems to be a never ending controversy...

seth, if other companies who produce bareback used committed couples, i'd never have a problem with it. that's reasonable and responsible.

You know Seth brings up a good point, how come in the straight porn side of things, bareback is more the norm than the exception? Is it possible that on that side they still believe AIDS and HIV is merely a gay thing?

Thats true I have seen that alot as well..

Now I dont know alot about barebacking and laws and such ( Im somewhat educated on 2257 but only the stuff that concerns me and my interests are always looked out for by abunch of people who I know ,, know there shit and are very intelligent ) .. But can a studio get in troubleor be held liable for something bad happening with the model.... concerning barebacking??

I mean Im a big fan of rimming ( That is my favorite thing to do!) Not so much oral but you could say that bolth of those things are very unsafe!! Oral you still get pre cumm etc.. in your mouth and rimming is unsafe as well to a certain degree there is alot to argue here... I mean I think alot of peoples focus is on HIV and you wanna get that techinical then! Syphillus and other such things Like Hep C which are easier to catch bolth very dangerous and can be very harmful are easier catched!!!

I mean there is alot of variables and almost to many to weigh out to a certain degree because one good point can always be argued by another good point correct!! I always find things I dont agree with but I still go! Ok I see there point and they have a great arguement and leave myself open for different things.. That is what makes me grow and learn and If I know someone is educated and passionate about what they are saying not just blowing something out of there ass!! Cause they heard someone else say it or they just heard it somewhere or read it somewhere then Im all ears and willing to listen and maybe except there point of view!!

Like I said here.. It makes a valid point on any occassion!

I just realized I should clarify that it is our exclusive videos that are committed couples and/or guys that already engage in bareback sex with each other.

We do occasionally purchase bareback videos from content providers to get us through the slow recruitment times. Those we certainly cannot claim to be committed couples, and we actually put those in a separate category on the sites.

Yes they totally believe that. The straight porn companies are so homophobic. I can say from my experience with having to deal with them on a daily basis. When I went to sign my contract with RHR they asked me if I would not use condoms because we could make more money. When I said no they said well I am sure you will change your mind down the road.
They just think that if you have a test then everything is ok. It's pretty fucked up.

Bareback is bareback. If you show someone getting fucked without a condom. That's what you are showing. Guys out there don't really care the background of the performers, they just want to see guys getting fucked raw.

With that being said, safe sex is just not being practiced very much anymore. I've hooked up with guys that say "safe sex only" go on to preach about it on their ads, blah, blah, blah.

What happens in bed, of course, is a different thing entirely. When it's condom time, they say "that's ok, you're negative right" or something like that. Well, that's not safe sex. Well, come to think of it, maybe that is the new safe sex. Maybe asking your partner his status is now the new safe sex standard.

Committed couples, oh please, half the guys out there are fucking around on their boyfriends. The only difference right now is that they are proud of it. Bareback is part of everyday gay life now. It's reflected in the porn that we watch and produce. Yes, there are consequences for fucking bareback. Most gay guys don't seem to be too concerned about that anymore. I'm willing to bet that guys are willing to accept their status, take their drug cocktails, and fuck without having to worry anymore.

I totally disagree with you. Some guys do have this attitude but the majority still care enough about avoiding HIV infection to use condoms when fucking. Guys who think HIV is "no big deal" are kidding themselves. Don't be so sure that your own personal choices are the choices others make.

[Huskyhunks]

I don't know what goes on in canada, but in the states, bareback sex is very common. People say they practice safe sex, it's politically correct to. In the bed, it's just a whole different story. I see what's going on. All the "partiers". That's a bareback culture. I don't do meth, but everytime it's around, there are never any condoms being used. Safe sex is dying a slow death.

[KellyTaylor]

WOW! that was said very well.. I will have to agree completly! There is some fucked up people out there who dont give a fuck! But I think for the majority right now People do care! So much that they talk very lowly about who do have it! Which is a shame! Cause honestly I know some good people didnt mean to get it.. But thats life!

But I will say one thing! I dont think everyone should base things so much around HIV there is plenty of other things I wouldnt want as well.. Such as syphillus and Hep A,B,C, or A number of things that are dangerous and can even lead to death.. You know what I mean? I know that HIV is a huge issue but alot of people dont think about other things that they wouldnt want as well.. I would rather completly cut my loses and wear a damn condom it isnt that hard! In the end well worth it ! I would say!

[basschick]

amen!

the only STD people care about is HIV, yet Hep C will kill you, it's VERY sexually communicable, and there are far less successful treatments for it right now than HIV.

I'm definitely not pro bareback. I practice safer sex and never bottom because I don't trust anyone...

If you promote sites where guys suck dick, that is not safe sex. Safe sex is masturbation, with others, kissing.

When you put two guys together and the suck or rim each other, there are hiv risks. Since there are like 2 jack off sites in the whole gay adult area, just about everyone promotes some form of unsafe sex or another. There are still risks involved however small they may be.

Barebacking is risky for everyone. So why then is this industry not banding together against it ? Everyone prosletizing on here, but no one is taking the initiative and starting any anti bareback forums, or anything to counter what is being produced now. There are no anti bareback crusades. Perhaps no one cares enough to do it.

It's fine and dandy to disclaim that you do not condone barebacking or produce it. But, why stop there ? Why not be more pro-active about it ?

[KellyTaylor]

Well ur missing out!! LOL Im vers and even though Im more of a top.. LOL you must try it sometime ... if bolth people are extremly clean etc... and im talking about 2 differents thing LOL... Then bottoming can be a hell of an experience!! I know how you feel and what you are saying but they are bolth fun and there is nothing like giving and getting a rimm job LOL

Im not being sick or anything im being real and just saying that...Learning to trust is a good thing... Being smart and hesistant are good things not.. Not trusting people.... You have to trust someone sometime and If I never felt Like I could trust someone I dont know how the world would be for me

But anyways just my opinion no offense to anyone else of course.. But im a lover and always will be.. Very sensitive and compassionate and I believe and want love for sure!!

Well I sure do know alot of people... That definatly would spend alot of money and time if they knew there was other people who where interested in getting rid of it! And would be interested in helping the cause! I just think alot of people dont! They dont want drama and they dont wanna cause some big scene.. ESPECIALLY WITH ALL THE 2257 SHIT AND HOW THE INDUSTRY IS BEING SCRUTINIZED by the Republican partys at the moment!! So it is better left alone right now! I think it would be particularly bad if people from the industry started fighting people from the industry !! Maybe someday there will be alot more government in the adult industry but for the time bieng I think it is best left alone!!

Just my personal Opinion !!!
