How does some of us come to the conclusion that when gay men engage
in the romantic, emotional, spiritual act of intercourse without a barrier we
label it psychotic bare-backing but when straight people do it we call it sex? Your
mother and father barebacked and this double standard is ludicrous. It is a
natural and precious act that has been going on, quite literally, since the
beginning of mankind.
So I ask you is there TOO much emphases placed on bare-backing and gay men?
If you say NO, I dare ask if you have uncanny ability to enjoy sex
while your penis is wrapped in latex? Or perhaps, by whatever Olympian discipline
you possess, you are capable of using a condom each and every time you have
sex, no matter what? If so, then you are to be commended.
If you say YES, is it because you feel that bare-backing and the
risk that comes with it further adds stigma and shame to our community?
How true, and how sad.
ReplyDeleteIKR!
DeleteA very challenging question. The sad thing is that the safety of having bareback gay sex depends on everyone being up front and telling the truth, and they don't.
ReplyDeleteI like to ask question that doesn't give a simple yes/no answer
DeleteBack in my parent's (and my) day, Death was not one of the possible consequences of unprotected sex.
ReplyDeleteI have always detested condoms and would rather not have penetrative sex than wear one. Does this make me a bad person? NO. Am I ashamed of my choice? NO, and I do not stand in judgement regarding anybody else's personal choice regarding this issue.
We all know the risks involved and I assume that consensual sex between two adults includes discussion regarding the option of wearing or not wearing protection.
I think it is commendable that you would opt out of penetrative sex rather than use condoms
