Gay Porn Bareback: Aaron Tyler Cums Clean
While Danny Roddick’s death shows that studios can’t monitor their stars off-screen behavior, we can at least make sure they do a better job of keeping them safe on-screen. As former bareback twink porn star Aaron Tyler recently claimed, the barebacking studios weren’t as concerned. Like former barebacking sensation Brent Corrigan, Tyler is professing a condom conversion after a fall out with his former employers. Mark Adam’s Vidioview alerted me to Aaron’s MySpace blog, where the former Helix Film star says he wasn’t aware of the dangers when he started shooting.
“… i was young and very stupid. I feel like it was a BIG mistake, but at the time i was broke and needed money and i was offered an extra hundred dollars for it. If i could go back and change this I would. It is totally UNSAFE and needs to be stopped…”
We followed up with Aaron, and he assured us that it was always his choice (Helix pays models $100 extra for doing bareback), but that choice is a rather fluid concept when you’re broke and the director is assuring you your parter is negative. Luckily, the tyke-cum-man is still HIV negative, but that’s bad news according to Treasure Island Media’s Paul Morris. In a recent interview with Out Magazine, Morris claims that HIV negativity “is the new virginity,” a boring and bourgeois state from which we’re better off freed. Hmmmm.
Such an admission from barebacking porn’s high priest has gotta be irking the likes of Bel Ami and Kristen Bjorn, both of whom have recently started slipping bareback scenes into their product line. (Bel Ami’s is only available online, and Kristen Bjorn is only adding it (with a real couple) to a special mail order version.) And local San Francisco producer Factory Video has released it’s first non-condom release, Raw Rookies, explaining “Our guys are all adults. They can make their own decisions about using condoms.”
Of course, none of this sits well with the current porn majors — Michael Lucas, Chi Chi La Rue, Titan Media’s Keith Webb and Raging Stallion’s Chris Ward have all been vocally opposed to the slow market drift to bareback. Detractors may cite eroding market share — one prominent studio head has suggested in private that if one major studio were to break, the entire industry would fall — but the real answer is more complex. For an industry who’s leaders came of age in the AIDS crisis of the 80s and 90s, keeping gay men safe is personal.

As a survivor of the AIDS crisis and thinking my work in the mid to late 80’s would save some lives and hopefully make the younger generation think they are just as precious to the cause as their forebearers, this sickens me to no end. This is just another reality to be absorbed and discarded in an uncaring industry where the buck is king and your self esteem another commodity to be exploited.

GREAT JOB GUYS. This is the best gay porn article in years. Brent Everett is another very young bareback star that publicly denounced the bareback industry and would never go back. While the current major studio directors state they are against barebacking, they continue to embrace bareback models. This public embrace sends the message to very young guys that barebacking with stragers on film is not taboo. We need to change terms here. The term should be HIV infection videos because that is what happens. Bareback videos are for straight compaines where they test each model. These poor young and innocent young models get lured with money to engage in unsafe sex and give huge profits to companies. The models are not tested and HIV infection happens over and over again including re-infection. There is currently a law suit against a online and video company for exploiting young African American males to engage in unsafe sex and many obtained HIV and other diseases. Until mainstream compaines stop hiring and sending the message that bareback sex on film is ok, things will never change. I once read on Chris Steele’s blog that hiring bareback models did not promote unsafe and bareback sex. It sure does, it gives huge recognition and fame to bareback performers. This fame is another lure that bareback companies use to lure young guys to their company. Anyone want to be a porn star? Why as a community are we so numb to the hurt of our own? Can you imagine the outrage if there was a straight video company that had HIV models that engaged in unsafe sex on film with very young models? The govermnet would shut them down. I dont understand why gay studios get this free pass.
Thanks for this artile. It is way over due and it is nice a former bareback model is brave enough to speak out.

The world would be better off if Paul Morris were freed from life.
richard September 19th, 2007 at 7:31 AM
maybe this signals a long awaited backlash against barebacking. when all is said and done, it always boils down to money and uninformed consent.
paul morris’ words will live in infamy. shame, shame, shame!
Anonymous September 19th, 2007 at 7:50 AM
While I certainly applaud Aaron for coming forward about his experience working for a bareback company, I am disturbed still by his excuse that he was “young and very stupid.” I know kids who wouldn’t put themselves in harms way just for money, they would get a job at McDonald’s or at the mall to make money. The reality is that Aaron loved the limelight as long as it was suiting him and his demands because he could have gotten a real job, or even two jobs like most Americans. I don’t blame him solely at all since we know young men are preyed upon, but I think he would be more honest and convincing if he admitted that he could have walked away from the start.
EdWoody September 19th, 2007 at 9:13 AM
I’m glad Aaron Tyler has come to his senses and spoken out.
Paul Morris, on the other hand, I’m happy to call a disgusting vampire of a man.
To my mind, anyone who performs or promotes bareback porn is an accessory in the deaths of everyone who dies of AIDS from that point on.
caelus September 19th, 2007 at 11:22 AM
oh well everyone is saying barebacking is bad but we all enjoy watching barebacking films, see how much money treasure island is making
Johnny September 19th, 2007 at 1:13 PM
Oh good lord – does anyone really care about the statements of denial from this 20-something year old creepy twink? Geez, I never even heard of him.
Aaron Tyler who? Poor him – sounds like he needs therapy and to start taking responsibility for his own actions. And of course all you condom nazi’s are going to be the first to jump on his bandwagon. Bareback porn is here to stay guys – get over it.
Anonymous September 19th, 2007 at 1:14 PM
There is no cure for AIDS, merely a way, that’s very expensive (if your’re poor and have to depend on government assistance that at any political wim can deny the drugs needed to keep you living is even more expensive). What is disheartening is all the bareback twink movies, whether AMerican or foreign. $100 is cheap compared to the risk these young performers are assuming…but it’s not the studios that can be blamed for this, it is the consumers who purchase these or download these type of films that are truly to blame. IF consumer demand is low than their share of the adult video market would be nil.
Alot of young men, even if they are 18 or “Adults” don’t fully understand and as Mr. Tyler points out when your broke a few measley bucks would more likely cloud your thinkings.
alex September 19th, 2007 at 1:19 PM
No, caelus. We all do NOT enjoy watching bareback films. Clearly EdWoody would agree with me. Just as I don’t want to see anyone playing Russian Roulette with a handgun, I don’t wish to see guys having bareback sex.
Additionally, as an owner of a gay adult website, the bareback issue is a financial one. If I promoted bareback films and websites, I’m certain I’d make more money. However, my morality keeps me from taking that course in life.
Keith Webb September 19th, 2007 at 1:32 PM
We will shut our doors and close down our company before we will ever do bareback!
The “one prominent studio head has suggested in private that if one major studio were to break, the entire industry would fall”…does not speak for Titan Media, nor does he speak for Channel 1/ChiChi La Rue and Colt/John Rutherford!
I guarantee you that we will never go bareback no matter what the rest of the industry does. Our company has proven that protection and proft can go hand in hand. When you make high quality content that people want, you do not need to stoop to bareback to try and sell films.
My message to producers contemplating doing bareback…If you are going to do bareback because of artistic reasons or freedom of choice issues, then at least have the balls to stand up, be proud of what you do and defend it. If you are going to do bareback because you think you can sell a few extra pieces, then you are a sad excuse for a human being!
I for one can go to sleep at night knowing we did the right thing.
Being Honest September 19th, 2007 at 3:51 PM
Blah, Blah, such crap most of you here on your soap boxes, i’m sure most of you have rented, maybe even bought these videos, they don’t make this amount of money just by chance, do i agree with these guys doing them..NO..but these are all adults, the funny thing is about 90% or so of these guys in these movies, including the majory studios, chi-chi larue etc, are barebacking off camera , most are already hiv positive, and they don’t wanna test them because the industry will certainly fold, i do believe if they start making better movies with models that are exceptional looking as in the past, these movies would not be very appealing, sadly to say these movies are here too say, just look at the ones that are coming out of europe and the american studios are following suit.. so get real directors an big studios, your movies suck, get back too basics with great models that have chemistry between them , and stop using anything that walks into your studios!
evian spelled backwards September 19th, 2007 at 4:34 PM
It’s common knowledge that a lot of gay porn stars working for condom only companies bareback in their private lives (with casual partners and clients). What’s the big deal?
Mike September 19th, 2007 at 6:32 PM
This issue is not what people do in their private lives — it’s a worker’s rights issue about safety in the work environment. If I choose to ride a bike without a helmet in my own time, you can that’s my business, but if a bike messengering company doesn’t want to provide me with a helmet because it’s more profitable not to, then I consider that a major ethical issue.
There are hosts of examples — child labor being the most salient one — where we don’t let the demands of the market run roughshod overproduction and safety issues.

Any one who acts in adult video knows why their doin it.come on people.No one hold or ties you down and forces a bare cock up your ass.Ive acted in a video before,yes I got paid,I had to sign a contract,and was told all that they wanted to see done.I had the option to say no,I got paid good ,but if they had said we will give you a hundred dollars more if you do it bareback,you know my brain would of kicked in and thought hum?

Im glad the kid is not poz and hopefully he makes better decisions now, with that being said will someone give this kid a cookie he looks like Sally Struthers will break into the website any minute and plead with us to feed the porn stars!
Jarod T. September 19th, 2007 at 9:37 PM
The last time I checked .. we were all adults here! Elliminating barebacking in porn is not going to do anything if the actors are barebacking behind the scenes! My point is this ..I’m a huge fan of barebacking films but I’m also educated enough to know that any sex in the porn industry is a huge risk!
That being said, If you participate in any barebacking for any amount of money or reason .. It’s on you!
Don’t blame those who produce/purchase the videos!

KC September 20th, 2007 at 9:38 AM
I have also worked with the same company. And can validate Mr. Tylers story. There is alot more he hasnt spoken on and I truly look up to Aaron. He took responcibility while also telling the truth to help others. I think that is the real purpose here.
Anonymous September 20th, 2007 at 9:01 PM
This is the same guy who hired Brent Corrigan for “The Velvet Mafia”, right? Brilliant.
“I once read on Chris Steele’s blog that hiring bareback models did not promote unsafe and bareback sex. It sure does, it gives huge recognition and fame to bareback performers.”
Ed September 20th, 2007 at 9:50 PM
I’ve slept with many of these porn actors who claim to be against barebacking. They say that in public but when you are in bed they all want it raw. When there is no camera rolling they are all doing it raw.
My point is, don’t believe what you read. All these porn “actors” and producers know how to market and make news too.
So stop, your soap-boxing and either START TESTING ALL PORN ACTOR, whether they are STRAIGHT or GAY or shut up.
Why should the Straight people have all the fun?
Let’s face it, NOBODY LIKES TO USE CONDOMS!!!
Bob September 21st, 2007 at 11:59 AM
Nobody like to use seatbelts either, but they save lives so we use them! Miners don’t like wearing helmets, but they do because it saves lives.
What people do in their private lives is their own business. What they do when they get paid to perform commercialized sex acts is a whole different thing.
It amazes me that people don’t understand the differance between performers real lives and their commercial “personas”. They are two entirely diffrent things.
brian September 21st, 2007 at 1:46 PM
What good does it do to test an actor and then say they are negative.He may have tested negative a week or two before or whenever the test was done but what if he contacted the virus after he was tested? It’s not like hiring a guy with long hair who shows up with a crewcut or a blond who shows up a redhead,those results you can see immediately.
Have I been tempted to not use a condom? YES….is a few hours of sex (I should be so lucky) worth ending my life for…NO!
In the stage play of “Making Porn” the line “they’ll never go for watching porn with condoms” gets a huge laugh from the audience.15-20 years ago that may have been true.Not anymore.
Eric September 21st, 2007 at 6:30 PM
You are crazy. I LOVE condoms and so do others. I am sick and tired of the HIV demons that hate safe sex just because they are positive and want everyone to suffer their fate. Straight porn is safe because they test models. Who would have thought that Straight porn would care more about life than gay people especially since gay people rioted against calling HIV and AIDS a gay disease. STOP PROMOTING HIV INFECTION. STOP ACCEPTING HIV INFECTION. Just because you have it does not mean you must demand everyone else get it. These poor young online young guys are dying while the whole gay porn world pretends like nothing is happening. SICK SICK SICK!
Ed September 21st, 2007 at 9:50 PM
Then why is the gay porn industry so afraid of testing like str8 porn?
And all of you are full of shit if you say you LOVE wearing a condom!!
The first thing couples do when they decide to be monogamous and get tested is stop using condoms! So DO NOT tell me or anybody else that you LOVE using condoms when you fuck!!
If we are gonna really have a truthful debate about this we all have to stop lying to OURSELVES about the so-called pleasures of using condoms.
Don September 21st, 2007 at 10:01 PM
The CDC also says that you should put a condom on when you do oral sex to and us a dental damn when you eat someone ass too.
So, if we are gonna really be role models then we should start doing that too.
HIV is not only spread through anal sex.
You can get is from pre-cum and cum in your mouth too.
You can get hepatitis C from eating someone ass.
How come no one is commenting on those VERY unsafe practices that STILL VERY PROMINENT in gay porn?
J² September 21st, 2007 at 10:02 PM
What makes anyone think that the bareback studios don’t carefully and fully explain the risks involved, and require that the boys sign a waiver?
Regarding testing, how thorough would you require? Obviously HIV; what about Hep-C and HPV specifically, as well as the lesser (non-life threatening if properly screened and treated) STDs?
Got it? September 21st, 2007 at 11:22 PM
Oh Eric,
Another soapboxing queen, last i checked these guys were adults and no what HIV is and how they can contract it, if someone wants to accept an extra $100. to play russian rulet with there lives because they are lazy and don’t want 2 get a decent job, thats there problem, i’ve been starpped for cash many times, and never once have i been tempted to fuck on camera , let along bareback, in case you forgot this is AMERICA,,land of opportunity where the ENRONS of our society made off with peoples retirement, its all about business, no one cares about anyone else but them selves, its great this kid is negative, but please stop making these guys out too be victims, let them get some self esteem and make the right choices or head into that industry and suffer the consiquences in the long run, as in haviing themselves on camera for all eternity,or worse end up dead as we’ve seen lately, i rent bareback movies, but thats is..its a MOVIE..if these big studios would make half way decent movies with somewhat appealing models, the bareback movies would not be so popular.
jordan September 21st, 2007 at 11:43 PM
I love condoms in sex, but I like bareback porn because it shows me something I can’t do until i’m in a majorly monogamous relationship with a partner I trust. I like to think that the studios doing bareback should be responsible for making sure their performers are being as safe as possible.
Dino September 22nd, 2007 at 6:21 AM
I hate the way some nuts in the HIV community find a way to justify unsafe sex. “Everyone hates condoms, condoms break, rimming is dangerous, people are adults, testing is not accurate, et” Blah Blah Blah. Those rationalizations are insane. It is almost like you enjoy watching guys get infected. Whether they are adults or not or how much they get paid is a non issue. You guys send such a bad example. How does anyone get aroused by watching HIV infection happen? It saddens me. I guess there is a psychological effect that it makes HIV infection not seem so bad if you see everyone else do it. HIV is still a big deal. Wake up guys. We love you all!
Amazing September 22nd, 2007 at 12:32 PM
Got it,
Your comments depress me. You first call people names and cant add something to the dialog. Then you rationalize unsafe sex practices with young men, many with HIV on camera with statements like “This is America” “This is business” “No one cares about them” “They have no self esteem so why does someone care” Please read what you posted. They are victims of some in the community that dont care if someone gets infected, film it, and make money off of it. You also state if major porn was better, that is another reason for them to bareback. This is not a debate but a forum of life and death. Your post is the most amazing post I have ever read here. None of your points or rationalizations make sense. Got it is Got crazy.
Ed September 23rd, 2007 at 7:47 AM
So let me get this correct. You are saying, that if you had a partner that you would no matter what, ALWAYS use a condom when having sex with them?
AGAIN, I say you are FULL OF SHIT!!
I have been with my partner for 7 years now and we are both negative and monogamous. We don’t use condoms because sex with condoms does not feel as good as bareback sex!
You watch porn, obviously all of us do, because we like to watch people have sex. If you went to watch, say two of your friends who you know are monogamous relationship have sex, you would tell them to put on a condom just because you are in the room watching them? Yeah right!!
Porn is fantasy, get it…FANTASY! Not reality.
PLEASE, people use your brains and be responsible, educated adults and do what is right for YOU.
Gilbert September 23rd, 2007 at 10:48 AM
Barebacking it’s just a death wish. Look at Jeff Palmer he was one of the most handsome men in porn. Now he looks like shit and just plain nasty
GOT IT September 24th, 2007 at 7:25 AM
Amazing you FOOL,
If you read my post carefully, don’t remember condoning barback sex, i said its a movie, and we all have choices and should know how too be responsible, these guys that get into that industry are lazy with low self esteem, and yes this is AMERICA sadly, where most companies don’t care about there employees..just the almighty dollar..face it..its reality..so get your head out of your ass and re -read the post and get off your FUCKING SOAP box!
Tom September 24th, 2007 at 7:32 AM
The intelligence of this debate is scary. The forum started with a former bareback model who stated his personal story and how he will never bareback again. Somehow the forum got highjacked by guys like Ed who dont believe that boyfriends wear condoms and porn is fantasy so it is ok to engage in bareback sex. What? I will not allow the false analogies continue. Get back to the original dialog. Is it worth these young kids get sick and die for someone’s viewing pleasure? Is your fantasy worth making a video company rich today and the models are sick tomorrow? This has nothing to do with your current relationship or your own personal condom use. Just because you cannot win the argument, you guys yell names at people.
Unsafe porn with gay guys depresses me and is not exciting. THe models look sick and it is sad to see them infect other people. Some want nothing more than for everyone to be HIV positive. I agree, these are not bareback videos but HIV infection videos.
mick September 24th, 2007 at 8:39 AM
How do people defend the gay condom studios if they don’t offer actors to be tested? It’s funny how Falcon, Titan, Raging Stallion, Channel 1 and all of the other studios continue to not want HIV testing. Speaking of Jeff Palmer, wasn’t he with one of the big wigs at Falcon during his heyday there. Falcon and the producer that he was involved with is to blame for everything that he has become in porn. All of the top gay studios really want to do bareback. Bareback gay porn is here to stay unless the government steps in.
j September 24th, 2007 at 9:37 AM
jeff palmer looks like shit because of meth..not because of bareback sex!! get the facts straight before you post. and yes i do know jeff!!
Ed September 25th, 2007 at 2:49 PM
Boyfriends don’t wear condoms. Unless they are in a sero-mixed relationship!
THEY JUST DON’T!!
Maybe all you really undereducated people should stop going to any movies, porn or otherwise, since you all seem to think that Hollywood reflects reality.
They didn’t wear condoms in Brokeback Mountain, as I seem to remember. One of the most critically acclaimed Gay movies of all time.
Jim September 25th, 2007 at 3:00 PM
Why are gay porn producers and directors so afraid to or against testing the actors like straight porn does?
Tommy Gunn and Billy Glide are having sex in the straight industry the way we all like it. And they are not have this debate over there.
Sex films without condoms make lots of money because that’s truly the way sex is supposed to be performed and felt.
Come on Chi-Chi and Michael Lucas test the performers. TEST THE PERFORMERS!!!
And lastly, when did porn actors become role models for behaviour anyway? Most of us would not even be friends with some of these guys if we knew what they did for living.
Would any of us take these guys home to our parents? Let’s be real.
Nazgul September 26th, 2007 at 10:07 PM
What a sad statement about people. These twinks will bareback for only $100 more? Talk about no sense of self worth! To risk their lives for $100? What is this world coming to?
j September 28th, 2007 at 11:49 PM
if chi chi and the others would decide to test their performers…you all better be ready to say goodbye to just about any of the stars you adore and follow. it is a know fact that are 70% of the actors are hiv+
Anonymous October 1st, 2007 at 10:14 AM
Ed-
Porn is just a fantasy?? So, becoming positive is also a fantasy, right?
You’re also comparing people barebacking for an extra 100 dollars with strangers to people who bareback in monogamous relationships?
Let me guess, you can also tell someone’s status by looking at their face, right?
Gosh, you sound like the ultimate idiot.
Ed October 1st, 2007 at 7:37 PM
No of course becoming positive is not a fantasy.
But, PORN IS FANTASY!! Just like any other movie you see.
WIth that logic when you go to see “Finding Nemo” you actually believe that fish speak english.
Making that statement makes YOU the ultimate idiot.
What I am saying is that guys who do porn are not role models, nor should they be role models for anybody.
Chi-Chi just hired an actor for his latest movie that has him barebacking all over the internet, yet he STILL hired him!
Do you not agree that all of this would be settled very easily if ALL models are tested, just like they do in Straight porn.
You made your decision not to ever bareback, which is fine. I’m glad for you. But, please stop telling other people that they are somehow bad for making the same educated decision to not use condom with certain sex partners.
TEST THE MODELS! TEST THE MODELS!! TEST THE MODELS!!!!!!
I’ve been tested. I’m negative and so is my partner. I have bareback sex with my partner, because it feels good.
Jim October 1st, 2007 at 7:51 PM
J put it right,
Gay porn producers are afraid to test now, because they fear they will lose some major talent from their ranks.
That is unfortunately the only reason they don’t test. The system is already in place.
Hollywood and even straight porn always make sure they protect the actors AND the industry, but all gay porn producers are concerned about is who has the biggest cock!
The real shame belongs to the gay porn producers. Who just hire any pretty face off the street and just put them in front of a camera.
Condoms don’t protect against all STDs
Straight monogamous couple don’t use condoms.
Gay monogamous couples should not be guilted into using condoms, because someone told us, and we believed that sex=death.
Bob October 5th, 2007 at 1:46 PM
I think it’s a safe bet to assume that anyone performing in gay bareback films these days is already HIV+. If they aren’t, they will be soon enough!
Anonymous October 8th, 2007 at 8:46 PM
I think it is a safe bet to just assume that anyone you have sex with could have herpes, gonorrhea, syphilis, warts, hepatitis as well as HIV and act accordingly.
Wouldn’t that be the smartest thing to do?
We have been so focused on HIV that we seem to forget about all the other STI’s out there.
Many of which you can get if you brush your teeth before sex and someone gets precum in your mouth!!!
Or get Hep C from rimming someone without a dental dam…. all the things they still practice on film in gay porn.
Why are we so focus on just HIV?
No one seems to be thinking about all those other STIs when you are blowing strangers in the steam room at the gym…..think about it.
Stephen October 10th, 2007 at 3:46 AM
It seems to me the straights do not have a problem with condomless sex in porn. They have installed a regime of blood testing every 6 weeks(the virus incubation period)and exclusion of any models who return an HIV positive result and a few years ago closing down filming for a 6 week period when HIV was detected. This is the most that can be done with current technology. From what I read, the gay porn industry in the USA does not blood test models because it already knows the outcome: 50% or more of the models are HIV positive. To exclude these models would collapse the industry. For once I think the gays should learn a lesson from the straights & offer newcomers to the industry the best possible protection where they are at least matched to a person of the same staus.
Mm hm October 15th, 2007 at 1:04 AM
*I’m* a person who would use condoms all the time even if I were in an established monogamous relationship because of the potential for shit dick, and every other nasty thing that can happen.
If I ever challenged for my trust or trustworthiness by a partner because I refused to have unprotected sex, I would rather question his trustworthiness.
People are gonna do what they’re gonna do, but knowledge (not dogma) is positive, not negative. Stop acting as if you know the desires and behaviors of everyone in a demographic.
Anouka October 27th, 2007 at 5:38 AM
I’m enjoying your site (it’s a long story how I ended up here). But several of the comments to this story make me ill. To those of you promoting responsibility in the industry, thank you. Again, THANK YOU. You see the bigger picture. To those who can’t think beyond your own dicks, I take it you all are also intentionally spreading deadly diseases because in your minds it’s your partners fault for screwing you? Burning in hell is too good for you. Your selfishness and greed is off the charts. People are dying — and you don’t care. I hope it is not because you are HIV positive and want to make everyone pay because of what you have.
Young people don’t have the life experiences of older people; young people think they are immortal, and older people exploit that. It is unconscionable to blame adult in body but still kid in mind barely-legal young men for being exploited by older people.
Stephen, is there a url for the stat you presented? because that is frightening.
I hope Aaron Tyler comes out of this ok. That poor kid.
Kirk Rich November 17th, 2007 at 9:00 PM
I believe that bare backing is completly stupid and should not even be alowed to be put on the internet! But as long as there are gross people out there it will continue to spread what is already killed over 1 million people in the world. I do not hold this against Aaron Tyler like he said he was young and broke. But the producers should not have let that happen. But as usuall they were looking at the money and not his safety. Aaron I am sorry you were put in that situation.
micjy November 25th, 2007 at 10:04 PM
hi every1…personally i like watching aaron movies.. its his chice but i waana know 1 thing.. is he really gay.. does he love boys..if it is yes so its his choice he dnt want to use condoms thats his mind.. hes so cute u cnt blame consumers…
Robb May 25th, 2008 at 12:29 PM
I just wanted to comment and say that I have done some former bareback porn, lived in a camera house and escorted. Of all things I feared the most was when I was brought on as a full-time casting agent for a bareback porn company who insisted I find guys that didn’t require testing and the set location. I however had models get tested at free clinics, but when a shoot date was past deadline and they realized I was having the men tested they let me go. Sadly I was dumb and also barebacked live on a cam site as it was filmed in HD as well… One of the models didn’t showed up so I hoped in.. The evidence is all in the video. But I was dumb, they just insisted being a top the chances are low. This company later bought me out of the cam house industry. BAREBACK WITHOUT TESTING IS NOT WORTH THE MONEY!
-Robb
CameronSG August 20th, 2009 at 2:26 AM
Honestly, In my personal opinion, Models should be tested before any sexual act. The companies do have enough money to test them without a hassle. The only thing that is a detriment is the time it takes to have an accurate test. The testing though, can save a persons life. That is really all that matters. Honestly, I don’t believe anyone likes condoms, they kill feeling and spontenaety, and at least for me, can be rather painful at times.
Aaron does have a good point in saying that he basically wasn’t edducated, and yes there are young boys such as myself [19 years old] that do know. The horrible and yet funny thing is that all the information I know, was either taught to me by a Houston based youth organization known as H.A.T.C.H. or by me searching for hours online. The information is not readily available in our society. That is the base of the problem. If more people were to push for sexual education, of all kinds, in our school and in our society as a whole then, cure or not, HIV/AIDS rates I believe would recede. Of course they would not completely disappear because some people regardless of knowledge are going to do it either way. The others though, like myself, might actually listen to the information, practice safe sex and be tested regularly.
Don’t ostracize the industry becuase like all companies, they are here for the consumer. Supply and demand rules the market in America. If supply suddenly called for only interracial porn, then the industry would become majorly interracial. It’s simple: Teach properly, practice what you preach, and lower the supply of BB films.

@TJ You need to get you’re facts straight. I got confirmation from the company itself that these are NOT old but NEW material. In fact there are several more yet to be released bareback videos from our beloved safe sex poster boy.

OMG what a an extreme and divisive debate. I worked as an aids care giver in 1992 and i saw the wort of the effects of AIDS while I washed the lonely and dying watched the mothers, sisters friends and lovers helplessly watch these men and boys die. it was horrible. However human sexuality is more complex then a tragedy a pandemic or a soap box. (Also before i go on about that let me say this kind of intolerant and narrow minded back and forth is what has kept the gay community weak and self destructive I sight the downfall of act up as an example of sanctimonious bickering that ended in self destruction)
The human desire to to transgress social mores is strong and transgressive behavior in sex well is the root or one of the roots of all fetishes. Since the advent of aids sex without condoms became taboo and then of course fetishized. Why shouldn’t it be the urge to experience sex skin to skin to share that experience is pretty primal no one can deny. telling em you think sex without condoms itself is disgusting is just unrealistic and unless you are just disgusted by skin and cum its false. We need to have an adult and open dialog rather then vilify one another. It was recently revealed that a wonderful hero of a writer Dustin Lance Black was having unsafe sex and he is being lambasted for it! is this productive? there is obviously a great demand and desire for bareback porn. First why dont we look at the kind of self regulating STD testing the straight porn industry does. Ohh and before you poo poo that get educated about it. Test results can be produced in 20 minutes. The straight porn stars a pretty strict and on pint testing system. Now i can see all the safe sex advocates getting hot under the collar but isnt education not vilification the way to stopping the spread of AIDs? You cannot stop people from filming unprotected sex or having it unless you prefer to live in a society that limits your freedom and i know some of you are gonna be dumb enough to want that. Instead of hanging former bareback porn stars on bloody wooden stakes and denying them the right to change their minds and have a career in safe porn why dont you keep your focus on education? The moralizing must stop you only keep branding shame and young men who take a risk will be less likely to come to you and admit to being unsafe because they will feel shamed. Focus on the work at and and not on controlling people and shaming them. Same equals silence and silence equals death. Work together people and stop moralizing and fighting!

***Paul Morris needs to eat someones ass that has the Flesh Eating virus***
It has nothing to do with being an “Adult.” It has to do with stopping the spread of a disease. Its a Disease. A preventable one. One that has shown to kill, One that has not been cured)A disease that there is STILL NO CURE, But a TEMPORARY FIX), one that is only on hold for now. If you can live with a time bomb ticking inside your body….thats you. What you dont get is the IMAGE that this projects to gay youth. Paul Morris is a JACKASS, A Demon(And not in the way that would make Morris smile)but he is right about if you are negative…no matter the age and no mattter the reasons behind you being disease free, That we will be the “New Virgins” on set and off set. The gay community quit policing itself when the showing of “Folk” and all the other shows showing the negative gay stereotypes for money became popular. Once the “Cocktail” was introduced, people risked their health for fun and money. And whats going on in LA County with straight porn…That industry(who actually attempt to police) are pointing the finger at the Gay Porn Industy as a whole for not doing more than taking a stand.
Sometimes you need to blow it all up(legislation/laws) to be able to start fresh.
If the condom supporters are REAL and against bareback as they say they are, They are the perfect ones to take it to the CDC, Legislation being passed and then it would be illegal on all fronts. But we know money is the root of all evil and that wont happen. Only a bunch of barking about it.
In the meantime the gay youth who didnt get to experience the hospices, hospitals, the walking dead, the funerals, AIDS Quilt showings during the epidemic…now see risky sex as only the flu and a trip to the MD.
