  1. If you want to do some good for the bareback community, please sign the petition against Michael Weinstein that's been started by the 2014 Mr LA Leather on Change.org… https://www.change.org/petitions/ahf-remove-weinstein If you don't know much of anything about Weinstein - he's the guy who managed to get bareback porn made illegal in LA County. He's the guy who's gone after bareback porn producers like TIM and SD Boy. Basically he believes condoms should be mandatory. And allegedly he thinks so little of guys who become poz that he's taken money from programs that are supposed to care for people with AIDS and used the money instead for legal battles against the bareback porn industry. Now he's gone a step too far and called Truvada/PrEP "a party drug". This is the last in a long history of him being against PrEP. It's one thing to go after bareback porn, but another to go against PrEP - which has proven itself in clinical trials and the first good news in HIV prevention in nearly 20 years. It's just irresponsible. He needs to go. Assuming you're out, please get others to sign the petition as well - by posting on Facebook, etc.
  2. Sorry if I've been absent from the site lately. I'm on day 7 of a nasty head and chest cold that I wish would just go away. Anyway, I asked my host a few days ago if Heartbleed was an issue for my server and was told that, no, it was never problem. They manage over 3,000 servers and only 15 of them had the issue - in part because they're a bit manic about building servers a very particular way.
  3. Those words are blocked because they were used by a number of creepy psycho members. That group isn't really one I want to encourage here. There are variations on the terms that aren't blocked. Use those. (But if they're abused, they'll be blocked too).
  4. Eh. Think nothing of it. No answer just means they're not really looking right then, or they're looking for something different. Actually no answer is better than no thanks - with no answer it means you may still be in the running... In other words, you may not be exactly what they're looking for, but give it an hour and they may give up on what they're looking for and have sex with you (e.g. they don't want to completely close off things with you by saying 'no'). Now, if you had said you look nothing like what they describe as the person they're looking for, and they said nothing, that would be one thing. But if they're guys you've hooked up with before, then just be patient. Some days they're looking for one thing, other days they may be looking for you.
  5. Can you give some links to places where he said those things? I looked when I did my post and couldn't find them.
  6. Actually, Michael Lucas has never been all that much of a hypocrite on the subject. I researched it when I did my first blog post on him. He advocated condoms back in the day because he didn't like to see discrimination against poz guys - he thought being poz shouldn't be an issue - and safe sex was the way to make it a non-issue. As pro-condom arguments go, that's one I respect. He even dated a few poz guys - so it was real for him. He also stated once that he thought all the bareback porn with teens was irresponsible. But there are plenty of guys on here that say the same exact thing - that teens don't really understand the risks they're taking. I don't agree with that - I think they're adults, and the problem isn't the bareback porn but their parents and teachers not preparing them for adulthood properly. But the point is, he didn't say anything that people here don't say.
  7. Hey guys, I'm looking to hire someone to do social media and porn blogging. The person should meet the following criteria: Bilingual - familiarity with sexual slang in both English & Spanish Great informal writing skills - particularly getting a point across quickly and briefly (in tweets, etc.) Be able to communicate the sexual appeal of a wide-variety of guys. Have some experience with social media and/or blogging. Available to work at least 20-30 hours week. (Please be realistic about your availability). Have a good, reliable Internet connection. I'm posting this in the Central & South America forum because that's where the person needs to be located - for a few reasons. First, I like hiring people who are in time zones close to mine. Working with people in Europe and Asia is just frustrating. Second, the person needs to be bilingual (English/Spanish) since they need to support the Machos Calientes blog and Twitter account as well as my English stuff. And third, because the amount I pay can give someone a middle-class lifestyle in many South American countries, but it's below minimum wage in the US. If you've applied for jobs with me in the past and told you got close - please apply again. If you're interested please send me an email - rawtop@breedingzone.com and tell me about yourself - your education, work experience, as well as social media and blogging experience.
  8. This weekend could work for me. Hit me up on BBRT (rawTOP) or A4A (nycFUCKER).
  9. Yeah, I was disappointed in that response. I'd think if he did it enough he would get past the distractions and it would just be the normal course of things.
  10. If you're up for 1-on-1, let me know.
  11. Yes, totally legal. The company who runs the sites has VERY long relationships with all the major bareback producers. And the price can go down as low as $10.47 if you do the $29.95/month streaming plan. If you do 7 purchases in a month that's actually cost effective - even if you don't use any of the streaming minutes. (Sorry for the tardy response).
  12. Sorry for being so late to this discussion (I've been playing hookie from my moderation duties). But a couple of thoughts… Cut EVERYONE out of your life who won't support you and love you. They should be nothing more to you than casual acquaintances who you smile at and then ignore when you don't absolutely have to interact with them. You mentioned your father is trying to bring you into his real estate business. If he doesn't love you and support you as a poz gay man, then that is not a good environment for you. I've gone through this with big parts of my family. It's not easy, but trust me, trying to get people to change is a complete waste of time. Just move on and do what's best for you. You then need to actively work to rebuild your life. It won't be easy, but when you get to the end you'll be one of those people who say "becoming poz was the best thing that ever happened to me". Why? Because it forced you to take control of your life and live a life that's worth living. You can do it, and you'll be better for having done it. But it won't be easy. In the meantime get professional counseling from a gay friendly therapist.
  13. I haven't worn deodorant since I was a kid. Honestly the stuff made me stink. I smell less not using it. But when I get sweaty my pits smell really great, but if my arm's down you don't smell much of anything. I don't get why people use deodorant.
  14. I wouldn't think leaving as soon as you've cum is a problem in a bathhouse setting. Bathhouses are sorta made for pump-n-dumps. I guess I'm not understanding your problem. You could "flag". It's old school and a lot of guys won't get it, but some will. Tops flag left, bottom flag right. So get yourself a leather wristband or armband and put it on your left arm. Being a top is a lot about attitude. If you act confident and assertive it'll help guys see you as a top. [Notice I said assertive, not aggressive - don't be a cocky jerk.] I'd also suggest putting a cock ring on and finding ways to display your hard cock (rather than your ass). So sit places in the bathhouse stroking your cock. Maybe take a Viagra or Cialis before you go - even if you don't really need it. Bottoms are drawn to hard cocks like moths to a flame.
  15. So how many loads can a hot little twink get at the Black Party?
  16. That's my guess too. Though I'm a little surprised Flavaworks didn't test him or talk to him about his HIV status. Then again, just the other day I found out that one of the big studios that shoots a lot in Eastern Europe didn't test regularly and quite a few of their "gay for pay" models were winding up poz. Personally, I don't blame the studios. We're talking about a basic lack of knowledge about HIV - which is a bit shocking. Bottom line, videos like that are why I think this site is important. At least the guys here understand the risks they're taking and how to take care of themselves (via PrEP and watching their viral load and taking meds once poz). He's really cute though. I just wanna fuck him and breed him right there in his hospital bed.
  17. Right. There's a lot of stuff that's legal, but Visa won't touch it, so it never gets sold (or rather, never gets made).
  18. I did #1 even before I was on PrEP. lol Bottom line - do whatever you did when you used condoms. PrEP is about the same as using condoms - probably safer (in terms of HIV).
  19. But isn't the point of what you just described that he'll get over his chasing, settle down with a good guy and be monogamous? That chasing is "just a phase" - not something you aspire to? That's better than how people saw chasers before, but still sorta sees it as undesirable.
  20. Are you logged in? Dark Alley is one of the studios that do not appear on the tour, but do appear after members login. The downloads are DRM-free MP4s. I believe they are (or will) have invisible watermarks that can be used to track the source of piracy. So use as you want personally, but don't be uploading to file sharing sites unless you want a lawsuit. You're preaching to the choir about the whole scene vs. whole DVD thing. I tried and that's what I got… I do keep mentioning it every now and then - maybe one of these days they'll do the work to enable single scene downloads.
  21. If it's thought through with care, then it's not a stupid decision - no matter what he decides.
  22. I think the perception may be because small dicked gay guys tend to bottom. So that means gay tops are above average in dick size as a group. On the other hand there's no sorting mechanism like that among straight guys since all straight guys are "tops" since the women are the "bottoms" - at least in terms of insertion - power dynamics are another matter completely.
  23. Yup, I know (of) Lou Maletta - from his GCN days (back when GCN was on public access).
  24. All the Dark Alley stuff is available for DTO on rawTOP.tv. Ditto for Dick Wadd, and much of TIM (though it comes in spurts with them), and a bunch of other pretty big bareback producers. [There's more than what's shown on the tour – long story.] Just sign up for the free membership and download the DVDs you want - cheap
