GOSH, IT SEEMED LIKE SUCH A GREAT IDEA AT THE TIME...:
HIV scandal in gay porn industry (Madeleine Holt, 3/04/08, BBC)
Three films have been withdrawn from sale following a Newsnight investigation into the health risks of so-called bareback gay porn - which shows men have unprotected sex.It follows concerns within the gay community that performers are being infected with HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases.
Two of the DVDs featured footage from a week-long shoot during which eight British models had sex with each other in multiple combinations without condoms.
Four of those who took part were diagnosed as HIV positive soon after.
Kind of like slo-mo snuff films... Posted by Orrin Judd at March 4, 2008 1:27 PM
Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.
Posted by: Ed Bush at March 4, 2008 1:53 PMWhy do you obsess about gays so much?
They wouldn't be very important at all (being less than 5% of the popuation) if people like you didn't magnify them constantly.
The only other guy I know who obsessed this much was Sen. Craig.
Hmmmm....
Posted by: atlatl at March 4, 2008 4:53 PM atlati, gays have souls too.It's not kind to pretend that gay sex is healthy and without consequences(especially when those consequences are deadly)just because it doesn't effect you.
We don't do it with fat people and hoho's.I bet 95% of the people who object to saying gay sex is unhealthy would gladley tell a fat person hoho's are unhealthy for them.
It's fruitless to obsess over gays, but peoples lives shouldn't be destroyed just so you can feel yourself "tolerant."
When I interned on the Hill Mr. Craig was always exceedingly considerate and never rode bareback.
