Bareback: Fetish or sexual practice?

Hey PozToxVersPig, I’m a molecular biologist, too, and a chemist.  I study environmental DNA, bacteriophage, and retroviruses.  I think  I get even more turned on when I’m getting bred by tops and taking their cumloads, knowing that there’s all this genetic material and proteins being shared by the top. I was actively taking loads yesterday and I was in heat, getting bred while my digital PCR was running behind me at the lab.  

My thesis was on the repair of cyclobutene pyrimidine dimers in DNA caused by UVA/UVB exposure by an enzyme called photolyase which leverages UVA/UVB and blue light as its power source to repair the bulges within the double helix...avoiding, ultimately, apoptosis due to fucked up replication.

I also had sex in my lab a lot....until I was lazy, and had left a pipetman with a tip loaded with whatever caustic lysing agent we were using at the time on the bench when the sex started.  All was well until it fell to the ground and the tiny amount of the liquid hit the back of my leg (I was also wearing shorts) .  Quick lab shower later...I still 20+ years later still have a scar on the back of my calf.

And yes, I like knowing how DNA works too when it comes to fucking! 🙂

Can be both.

I met last week with a guy working night shift security. Love a guy in uniform. Stick on a uniform and for some reason makes me want a guy a lot more. I had a lot of fun grabbing his butt and feeling his dick through his work pants, felt good undoing his belt and pulling his pants down to fuck him from behind with my arm around him. Kissing his stubbly neck and feeling his collar on my face. He was a hot very fuckable guy, but for me uniform made things hotter because I have a uniform fetish. But some other guy who doesn't have uniform fetish could meet up, pull his pants down, fuck him like I did and kiss his neck, have fun, but not feel the same way I did. So same thing, different experience. It's an activity when you do it, it's a fetish when you see it as the thing you really want, when it's something you daydream about it when you think about a guy.

That’s some awesome science you were working on for your thesis.  My work is looking at fecal bacteria/i.e. shit, and it’s different sources-wetter from humans, dogs, cattle, birds, other wild animals and trying to determine extent of environmental contamination in watersheds.  A retrovirus that’s a good source indicator from humans is something that I can detect using digital PCR.  This RNA virus is in people’s shit and usually no other animal sheds it, it’s unique to humans and in high concentration with a long survival period. It doesn’t rapidly degrade outside the body like HIV.  It’s some interesting work. It’s hella fun using my lab space to host breeding sessions.  I just got to be careful to not introduce foreign DNA into my experiments…but I use my ass to collect those loads and store them all day while I work.  I did have a puddle of cum under my ass after yesterday’s last top finished. I got down and licked it up, hoping I did t lick up any chemicals that could have spilled, but whatcha gonna do when there’s cum on the floor…got to clean it up and why not with my tongue. It was delicious.

I am fantasizing over the handsome security guard at my lab. He’s been there a year now and I melt every time I see him pass by. I’d love both more than to ride his cock and take his cum regularly.  I can’t tell if he’s into guys.  He looks like a macho Latino, muscular and fills out his uniform so well.  I’ve got to try and take his cock this year, if he’s down for that sort of thing. I hope so.

This was a long time ago and I no longer do lab work like that.  And honestly, it was the worst thesis subject in the world, because we studied it in multiple species of amphibian eggs in their natural habitats (mothers embed endogenous photolyase within the eggs when they are lain, which dissipates over the course of the first four days, until the tadpole begins producing their own).  All of that is to say I had to climb in to remote parts of main mountainous areas where we had our collection sites to collect eggs every day for weeks at a time before doing the lab work.  Hated that part.  

I love how we're being lab [banned word]. 🙂

 When HIV arrived, we weren't even able to be in rooms openly socializing with each other.  To have community was impossible, so it was boiled down often to sexual encounters which, were "safer" in the sense that they maintained anonymity, could be done quickly, and without disrupting our likely heteronormative lives.

As one of the older members on here … who moved to Boston in the late 70s … I was able to experience gay life before AIDS …. And then early days… peak epidemic to early cocktails to today 

now I can only speak for Boston … but I would disagree that AIDS made community “impossible” if anything it made the community stronger… tighter, snd far more politically active… none of the  bars closed…. We still all went out to bars snd restaurants (what closed the bars was not AIDS but the apps like grinder)

So now we have HIV and the government, which has treated gay men so badly, not recognized their relationships, not defend them against police action, wrongful terminations, insurance denials, etc. is now ALL UP IN OUR BUSINESS telling us "SAFE SEX ONLY" and "USE A CONDOM ALWAYS" - and running campaigns that if I had seen at the time, I would have thought "who the fuck are you to tell me this?"  Not only that, but gay men had a freedom they didn't with heterosexual sex.  There was no risk of pregnancy.  Now the government was saying "you can't have that anymore.  we don't care about you and we don't acknowledge you or your rights as a gay man, but we insist you use a condom because AIDS."

I would disagree with this …. It was not the government that was sponsoring the “always use a condom” campaigns …. The government didn’t care …. It was community groups and local nonprofits… I think every city had one … in Boston is was AIDS Action - for NYC history watch Larry Kramer’s The Normal Heart.  And of course Act Up.

and I would say that it was more than “Some portion started using condoms”

At least in Boston I think the vast majority of us did …. I never heard of guys who refused to use condoms because “the government told them to” (unlike he Covid I never knew any AIDS “deniers”) there were of course lots of guys who didn’t use condoms every time. Some just because they just got caught up in a hot scene and forgot, or because they hooked up at a bar …. After a few too many drinks and do were too drunk to remember …..or the condom broke.

and then after a few years… there was a certain amount of  “safe sex” fatigue….. there were a lot of groups that worked really hard to try and make using condoms “erotic” and sexy, even kinky…. But let’s face it …. Condoms are not sexy 

which brings us back to “fetish or sexual practice” …..  today with PReP and hiv meds …. It is so easy to have condomless sex as just normal everyday sex …( the way it should be) …… but it can, also easily be fetishized….. if the guys approach it that way 

oh …… also I think the big difference between AIDS and Covid is that it took years of protests for the drug companies and government to do anything …. While with Covid it is amazing how fast they moved to create a vaccine. - and too bad that it was politicized- again only speaking for Boston here … but it was the gay guys at the head of the line saying “I’ll take the vaccine”

and then when Monkey Pox started here in Ptown and Boston it was gay guys …. Remembering AIDS that lined up demanding to get the  vaccine
