Most of the comments from the public posted on the Treasure Island Media website have been typically lame, with a lot of dancing around the issue: detectable HIV deposits banked into willing asses. Certainly, this is a fact of bareback sex, and by extension, bareback porn. But the guys at Treasure Island Media are engaging in some subtle (some might say ‘not so subtle’) marketing here, demonstrating how to engage the pozcum fetish which is a repugnant issue for the mainstream porn industry. Michael Lucas is now producing bareback porn…BUT…and we all know this…his models are all HIV-negative. Ditto, the slew of crap from Brazil and Central Europe…fresh twinks free of the nasty bug are all tested, and paired off in antiseptic, usually tedious, uncharged bareback action.
I don’t know about you gentle readers, but as far as I’m concerned, poz guys are so much sexier because we are uninhibited and have gone for broke with what remains of our sexual lives. A porn star of undisclosed HIV status becomes so much more attractive once his positivity is revealed. It helps the viewing public create his image, part of an imaginative and intellectual process that is a vital part of porn. For example, I never really appreciated TIM starlet Jay Ross until I created my own image of his character: rich college frat boi who spends his allowance on expensive New York hotel suites where he can get gangfucked and charged by big latino cock. But it’s still up to the pornographer to give us something to play with. Treasure Island Media is doing this with the new video, ‘Viral Loads,’ where a preview scene with poz megastar Blue Bailey (porn types reach ‘mega’ status when they star in their own gangbangs) and Steven Richards, of whom I would know little if it were not for TIM’s subtle marketing.
We all know that all bareback porn bottoms are poz, with only a few exceptions. You can’t be worried about HIV if you’re going to bottom in bareback porn. But we often don’t know that much about the tops; we have to search the internet for more information about HIV status, if it’s ever disclosed at all. Until now, however; through this subtle exercise, TIM has taken the unspoken to the next step. A viral load in bareback porn is a matter that pertains to the top. We bottoms love those viral loads, and in the new video ‘Viral Loads‘ we can assume that all the tops have a viral load to satisfy the hungry demands of those toxic bottoms. So I’m assuming that Steven Richards is poz, and all the other tops are poz, as well. I think we’re supposed to assume such. So I’m anxious to see who else tops in ‘Viral Loads.’ I can almost guess who the bottoms are, but I’m really interested to see the roster of tops with their viral loads. One thing about Treasure Island Media: they don’t mislead their viewers, e.g., we all know Brad McGuire is negative. If Brad shows up in this one, then it will show how wrong I can be. Check out the ‘Viral Loads’ preview scene on the TIM website.
