Is Bareback Safe?

Question:

Dear Bareback Michael,

I find the idea of barebacking fascinating, but am a little bit concerned. There is so much safe sex peer pressure and information out there. Is barebacking really that much better than safe sex? How risky is it really? Is there any way to make it less risky?

Horny But Scared

Answer:

Dear But Scared,

First off, face it, no sex act is completely safe. Condoms break, people get caught up in the moment. Shit happens. So you need to get over this idea of safe sex. Plus, while breeders always preach save sex, they seem to have a lot of babies and abortions which means they don't always practice what they preach.

Yes, barebacking feels much better. It is the most intimate act of love that can exist between two men. And, despite what Bareback Nazis say there are ways to make it safer without wrapping your crank in latex. For example:

You and your boyfriend could both be tested and then you could trust each other to be faithful.

You could use a good lube, which will reduce the chances of the bleeding that can lead to HIV transmission.

You could be a big boy and pull out and shoot on his back.

You can limit your activities to other HIV negative men.

There are other people who address this differently. They argue that most gay men will be exposed to the HIV virus eventually, so they might as well get it over with. These chasers seek out virile Positive men to seed them.

Hugs,

Bareback Michael
