Just in time for World AIDS Day...

Dec 02, 2009 00:53

The other night I checked out a profile on Bear411 that contained a blog link. I looked at the blog, and it referenced another blog that is geared toward the men who enjoy bareback sex. I am not a person who would engage in bareback sex outside of a monogamous relationship, but I have to admit that I have a little morbid fascination with the ( Read more... )

Ok, I'm finally home from work and can check these sites out, and comment. I've heard these stories before, and I wonder how much is truth, and how much is erotic fantasy.

You know, I'd believe that there is an element of fantasy with some of these people. But I definitely don't think that's all there is to it. There are too many matter-of-fact accounts, too many different people participating, too many sites... It's just too much to hope that it's all a great big sham.

I saw a doc on Bug Chasers several years ago. It was very hard for me to wrap my head around the whole thing at the time. I knew about Death Daddies and Aids Daddies. The thing that just stuns me is how much hate it takes to actually kill another person in that way. Some of the people interviewed actually viewed it as a gift, or a show of how much the two were "in love" at 18. It floors me to think how many times *I* was in love and stupid enough to engage in that. Thankfully I remained safe even after a year long relationship with a Poz partner ( ... )

An ex tried to trick me into being unsafe. He told me he was negative, but I wonder about his honesty. Fortunately I caught him in the process of removing & hiding the condom, and I am still negative.

It was years ago but I am still traumatized by having my trust betrayed to that extent. Even though my current partner and I have been monogamous for 3 years I will not go without protection. Fortunately he agrees with me on the protection issue as a good practice.

Bottom line, yeah, guys really do that. And not just hookups but fellows who enter into relationships. I count myself incredibly lucky not to have had a worse result of that experience.

That is horrifying.
