The difference in infection rates between oral and anal sex are far from irrelevant. I’m, however, confident eventually this law will not survive judicial scrutiny. It’s not my duty to protect anyone and others don’t have any right to tell me what kind of consensual adult sex I can have.
And of course most people don’t engage in unsafe sexual practices just because one watches them in porn and even if some did, my rights as an individual to watch porn and that of producers to make porn cannot be eliminated to protect one part of the population from their own stupidity. The minor risk of infection through oral sex is irrelevant: my point is the inconsistency and hypocrisy of the people behind it the rationale to ban it is the same. I watch bareback sex(especially Sean Cody) but I never ever did it and my partners are properly warned that if they cum in my mouth they will get their dick tattooed with my teeth. If you have anal unprotected sex with an HIV + partner,you have almost one chance out of 2 to get infected. In theory you can get HIV through oral sex but the percentage is like 1000 more less probably that you get HIV with oral sex if you let your partner to cum in your mouth and you swallow. Telling consensual adults what sex practices they can engage in is already tyrant enough, but picking and choosing makes it even worse, because it makes the arrogance and hypocrisy even more obvious. If you are being intrusive on other people’s sex lives based on health concerns, why not go all the way?, at least be consistent. Yes, it is less risky than unprotected anal sex, but it’s not risk-free. One CAN get HIV from oral sex, that’s a fact. Why doesn’t the new law make unprotected oral sex illegal as well?. Is This The Most Important Gay Porn Film Ever Made?ġ2 responses to HOW NEW CONDOM MANDATE WOULD AFFECT THE GAY PORN INDUSTRY The Secret Economics of Gay Porn … Or Why Gay Porn Got So Vanilla Most gay porn producers still use condoms - and the really big ones who don’t aren’t anywhere near California: Any bareback shoots move out of state.Īll in all though - it won’t affect the gay porn industry nearly as much as it would the straight industry. Reverts focus to producing cum-eating videos. But while they’re located in San Francisco, they shoot many of their videos outside the state.
They bill themselves as “the Cum Eating Experts,” but now produce bareback videos as well. Seems like a lifestyle choice more than anything. But San Diego isn’t a huge part of their identity, nor their model pool. One of the original three big bareback studios, known for grabbing mainstream gay porn stars - Josh Weston, Nick Moretti, Carlos Morales - once they went bareback. They’re only two hours from the Arizona border and an even shorter flight to Vegas. They originally boasted that all their models were HIV-positive already, but in 2008 started sero-sorting and testing. Hot Desert Knights was one of the first studios to go bareback, over ten years ago. But while bareback seems to be his personal preference, he still shoots plenty of material with condoms. Jake Cruise details his testing regimen for his bareback scenes on Cocksure Men. Corbin Fisher has already moved there, and they haven’t missed a beat. Unlike companies that rely heavily on crops gay men for their porn, Sean Cody has more flexibility - straight men are everywhere. The producers of the Dawson’s Twenty Load Weekend are openly defiant about unsafe sex (owner Paul Morris once called HIV-negativity “the new virginity.”) They’ve probably got the most to lose - the studio is heavily identified with San Francisco and might have a hard-time replicating the city’s sex-culture in someplace Las Vegas or Fort Lauderdale. Treasure Island showed up in full-force at the protest - and with good reason. But how will it change the gay porn industry? After the jump, which studios will be affected - and what we expect them to do … The straight industry is making plans to move the entire industry out of state, a bunch of silconed Israelites in a caravan to Las Vegas. AB 332 - a bill that requires all porn scenes shot in the state of California to use condoms - has cleared a final legislative hurdle and is expected to be approved by a vote of the State Assembly.
