I know a lot of you like Bare Derek’s porn blog. Friday around 6am the blog went dead with the message “Sorry, the blog at barederek.blogspot.com has been removed.”. When I tried to e-mail him Friday night I got a message saying “This account has been disabled or discontinued”.

I’m hoping everything is OK with him, but no, I don’t know what happened. All I know is last time when he took the blog private for a couple days it was because he wanted to make sure there weren’t any videos that had copyright issues. The fact that his e-mail address isn’t working makes me think he’s decided to just end it all and move on. But the fact that the URL isn’t available for reuse makes me wonder if something more serious didn’t happen.

The issue previously was that he was pulling videos from a lot of Ning sites. Ning has structured their business in a way so they’re not liable for what’s on the sites they host - the person who runs the site and the people who upload the content are liable - even the people (like Bare Derek) who use the embed codes can be liable (if they know it’s not legal and still choose to embed it). It’s all very carefully crafted by Ning’s lawyers to push the liability to everyone else.

Ning and many of the “tube sites” are a major problem for porn companies ’cause many of them blatently rip off content and then make it easy for the videos to get embedded elsewhere. I get e-mails from some of the sites saying things like “here’s the latest DVD from ____” and each scene on the DVD will be a video on the Ning or tube site. I see the same things with videos from pay sites where the latest releases from pay sites are advertised as new content on the Ning or tube site. In other words, one guy buys the DVD or pay site membership and then redistributes the content for free on his Ning or tube site. That’s just clearly wrong.

I’m not saying Bare Derek was doing anything wrong - his videos might have all been within “fair use”. I very rarely watched the videos on his site, so I really don’t have an opinion of whether his site crossed the line or not. I’m guessing he thought it was just too risky since some of the porn companies have been pursuing a sue first, ask questions later approach.

So if any of you are thinking of doing what Bare Derek did, just realize it can be legally risky…

UPDATE:

I got an e-mail from Bare Derek. He decided running the blog wasn’t worth the risk, so he shut it down. It was not the result of any legal action or anything like that. He’s fine - just moving on to other things in his life.

I’m arranging a cumdump gangbang session this Saturday, July 5, for a bottom bud of mine. he’s 28, a little on the bigger size body-wise, but he can take your cock like a pro. bang him as hard as you want, he loves it, no load will be refused. we’re getting a hotel room for the action, so a freewill donation of a few bucks would be welcome but not necessary. we’re getting a hotel near 108th and L in omaha

let me say again, no load will be refused, none whatsoever. bring your buddies with you if you want, the more cum he gets the hungrier his hole becomes. we’re looking for raw loads only. the whole point is to get as much seed in him as possible. there may be pictures taken, but they would only be showing your cock, nothing identifiable. its just for his humiliation. if you dont want to do that, no problem, he’ll take your jizz and i’ll take a picture of it leaking out his hole after you pull-out.

looks, age, stats, not as important as willingness to breed. pic is preferred but not absolute requirement.

‘perv4cum’ on BarebackRT is organizing it - he’s a 25 y.o. poz top. BareBottom1980 is neg - you do the math…

If you’re out near Omaha and want to give him a load, you can contact him at barebottom1980@yahoo.com, or you can contact the top on BarebackRT (via his profile or the party listing) or via the e-mail in the Craigslist ad. Literally no load will be refused…

Think that about sums it up…

There was a discussion a while back about whether bug chasers were urban legend or not. Back then I think it was a legitimate question. Now I think you can say pretty definitively that bug chasers do exist - and some of them even have blogs…

• There’s Matt & Dan who seem to be competing to see who can get pozzed first.
• Then there’s BareBottom1980 (the bottom for this gangbang) who’s showing that heavy guys can be bug chasers too…
• Probably the first one was Cosmaz who may not have considered himself a bug chaser at the time, but chronicled his experiences a few years ago when he was using meth, going to sex clubs, and wound up poz as a result.

The other day I almost wrote up a post ’cause I saw two bug chasing ads on Craigslist on the same day.

I think bug chasing has existed for a while, but most guys didn’t want to associate themselves with the term - like the bottom from IML… But now that some of them have blogs it means bug chasers are getting their voice, which will lead more guys to being willing to identify themselves as bug chasers… It’s like they’re coming out of the closet, just as barebacking came out of the closet a little over 10 years ago…

So far they’ve gotten responses from 50 guys but looking for more (after all only about a third of the guys who say they’ll come actually do). I plan on being there - probably a little later in the evening so I can felch some loads out of his ass…

Dan describes Matt this way…

He’s a hot young 25 y.o. (5′8′, 155, 32w, br/br, Neg, DDF) with one of the most spectacular asses I’ve ever fucked.

He’s looking to get fucked and to take as much cum as he can.

Stop by and let his talented ass drain your cock! Totally anon - he’ll be waiting, jockstrapped, ass in the air - lubed and ready.

And yes, even though he keeps testing neg, he does take poz loads…

The gangbang will be at Hotel Pennsylvania which is at 7th Ave and 34th Street, near Penn Station.

So tops - lets see how much cum we get get in him! Contact Dan if you want to stop by and drop a load - mattdanbb@hotmail.com - they’re going at it all night long…

And the remarkable thing is how hot some of his bottom boys are. (a few are TOTALLY my type - like this asian guy, this asian/latin? guy, this white guy, this white latino who says he’s “neg” (LOL), this latin guy, as well as Steve Tuck, and Jared Steel (along with comments about how big of a mess he’s become).

The more recent posts are pretty revealing actually - he posts e-mail addresses, phone numbers, and sometimes even addresses - depends on what information the bottom provides. From what I understand in most cases the bottoms have to take any load he sends their way.

At first I was thinking it would be completely cool to add a couple blogs like that to this site with cumholes and tops posting their availability. But then I started thinking that’s what Craigslist is for… The only difference might be there would be less hostility here, it’s not quite as public, tops could comment on their experience with the bottom (and vice versa), and I could send out geographically-based e-mail alerts. If I did it, I’d have it broken down so you can see guys in a particular area…

What do you guys think? Is it worthwhile, or redundant? If you think it’s worthwhile, I’ll add it…

Bottoms - if you want to be listed, click here.

Tops - if you want to be listed, click here.

Or, if you just want to comment on the idea, send me an e-mail or comment on this post.

I wanted to be there, but I was freaked … The only thing that kept me there was that you took the lead and didn’t give me any chance to change my mind … Thank you for making it so GREAT! The feeling of you cumming inside me was awesome. I fingered myself and tasted your load all night after I left. I will do almost anything if we can do it again sometime.

Needless to say he’s hooked up with him several times since then and dumps one or more loads in the kid’s ass every time…

I’ve never been one to really have the patience to deal with guys who are not sure they want to have sex. It did happen to me once - but it was a weird hookup (long story)… But if you’ve got the patience - take a lesson out of DC Top’s play book and get them addicted to getting cum in their ass with their first fuck…

Anyway, since January 10th, he’s gotten fucked 90 times with a condom. In 43 of those encounters the guy came in his ass (in the rubber). It should be mentioned that most of those encounters were in sex clubs where he’d offer his ass to whoever he thought was hot… He also got fucked bareback 9 times by guys he was pretty sure were neg - getting 7 loads of cum in his ass in the process. Plus his boyfriend has fucked him bareback 8 times and shot in his ass 4 times (which explains why he’s looking elsewhere for sex).

If you read his blog he’s been a bit conflicted about barebacking with guys other than his boyfriend. He likes it, but he’s worried about the risk he’s taking. It should be mentioned that if he became poz he might have issues with his career - so becoming poz is a problem for him on many levels…

A lot of his readers are telling him to stay “safe” and always use rubbers. But my contention is that he’s safer when he’s barebacking… Why? For two reasons - 1) He doesn’t know anything about the guys who fuck him with condoms but he does a good job vetting the guys who bareback him - he makes them get tested before they can fuck him raw, and 2) Condoms fail 10% of the time…

In other words, having 90 strangers fuck you with a condom and taking “safe” loads from 42 of them is the equivalent of having backing your ass to a glory hole and having 9 guys fuck you bareback and getting anonymous loads from 4 of them. Mind you, he’s had a lot more fun over the past 5 months than he would have backing his ass up to a glory hole one or two nights (risk vs. reward), but my point is - there’s still some significant risk…

Let’s go into more detail… What I’m about say is based on an article in the January 2002 issue of Journal of Sexually Transmitted Diseases, entitled “Reducing the Risk of Sexual HIV Transmission: Quantifying the Per-Act Risk for HIV on the Basis of Choice of Parnter, Sex Act, and Condom Use”. It was written by researchers from the Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention-Surveillance and Epidemiology at the CDC in Atlanta. I encourage people to read the entire article. The article doesn’t have new findings, but it’s a compilation of what was known at that point…

IMHO, the most important part of the article is the table at the top of the second page. To figure out how much risk you’re taking you take a number from each of the three columns and multiply them together and then compare the results.

Let’s take the two scenarios for Bubble Bottom Slut…

Getting fucked “safely” by strangers has the following risk factors - 43 for gay sex with a person of unknown HIV status, 100 for receptive anal and 1 for using a condom.
Total score: 4,300 (though I’ll discuss the 43 below)…

Getting fucked bareback by someone you’ve vetted pretty well - 1 for gay sex with someone who has had a recent, negative HIV test, 100 for receptive anal, and 20 for not using a condom.
Total score: 2,000

So just looking at those numbers it seems he’s more than twice as safe when he barebacks than he is when he’s taking “safe” loads from strangers in sex clubs.

But it gets worse… If you read the article closely they discuss how they came up with the 43 number - it’s based on an assumption that 10% of the people you’re having sex with are positive. Having sex with a HIV+ person has a risk factor of 430 - 43 is 10% of 430. Bubble Bottom Slut is having anonymous encounters at a gay sex club in San Francisco. Mind you it’s not the rauchiest of sex clubs, but the percentage of poz guys is probably more like 30-40% (and that’s a conservative estimate).

That means his risk is 3-4 times higher than we thought, and instead of being about twice as safe when he barebacks, he’s actually 12 to 17 times safer barebacking than he is having “safe sex”.

But it gets even worse… If you read the article carefully you’ll see that they say the risk factor (20) for not using a condom is based on a 5% failure rate for condoms (1/20 = 5%), but they say you only achieve a 5% failure rate when the condom is used perfectly. The real failure rate is around 10% (some studies say as high as 13%). So that means in reality his risk level needs to be doubled again and he’s actually about 25 times safer getting fucked bareback than he is having safe sex.

If Bubble Bottom Slut tested HIV+ today, based on his activity since January 10th, it’s far more likely that he became positive from the “safe sex” he’s been having than the little bit of barebacking he’s been doing.

Put another way, he could have had his vetted bareback fuck buddies cum in his ass over 1,000 times and not taken the risk he’s taken getting fucked “safely” by the 43 strangers who’ve used rubbers when they shot their wads in his ass…

Even if you’re skeptical of the accuracy of those numbers, the point is that he’s a lot safer getting fucked bareback by negative guys than fucked “safely” by strangers. It’s the reason why the San Francisco Department of Health promotes the concept of serosorting.

The important part in this scenario is for Bubble Bottom Slut to really know and trust his tops… When I say ‘know’ what I mean is that he wants tops who are doing low risk activity (which can include being a bareback top with negative bottoms). My advice to him is to find 100% tops who never bottom…

The reason I say find 100% tops is because those of us who don’t bottom are at much lower risk. Insertive anal has a risk factor of 13 - compared to 100 for receptive anal - so it’s 7.7 times safer.

Frankly, ’serosorting’ will probably work better for him (as a bottom) than it will for me (as a top) because he’s so careful. I tend to trust what people put in their profiles or say something like “your neg, right?” He actually goes through a lengthy process where he makes them go get an HIV test. He is actually doing serosorting properly - I’m a bit lazy with it.

So, if you’re one of the people encouraging Bubble Bottom Slut to “be safe” and use rubbers, you’re actually telling him to engage in high risk activity. He’s actually a lot safer with his vetted bareback fuck buddies.

The question is whether he’d be as satisfied with a sex life where we was only getting fucked by a few, well vetted guys. He seems to like public sex with strangers. And if he’s going to be engaging in public sex with strangers, then he’s being as safe as he can be by using condoms when he does it.

Bottom line, he should stop worrying about the little bit of bareback sex he’s having - it’s low risk. If he wants to reduce his risk, he should start by cutting down on all the strangers who are fucking him with condoms…

Let’s take his latest post… He talks about hooking up with a “kid” off Craigslist, doctoring the condom and fucking the kid raw when the kid thinks he’s got a condom on, and then cumming in the kid’s ass. Not only does he call his trick a “kid”, but he insinuates that he might be a virgin - it’s all in there to make people feel more strongly (one way or the other) when reading the story - which does make for a good read…

But what gives ‘Confessions’ away is the details of how things went when he bit a hole in the condom… First off, have you ever tried to bite a hole in the tip of a condom while having sex without the other person noticing? I have (years ago - not in that headspace anymore). It’s not easy and the one or two times I tried I was unsuccessful - the condom did just fine. If he really did write up how that went it would be pretty funny, ’cause he’d keep biting and biting and nothing would be happening and the kid would be like “fuck me already”…

Next he says (more than once) that the condom stayed on the shaft of his dick and just the head was uncovered. That’s just pure bullshit. I have had condoms fail on me before (intentionally and accidentally - again years ago - don’t touch the things anymore), and after one or two strokes the condom is all bunched up at the base of my dick like a bit messy plastic bag.

If you don’t believe me - try it yourself… Just try to discretely bite a hole in a condom and see how long it takes you to actually puncture the rubber. Then when you do finally get a small hole in there (use a knife or razor blade when you give up trying to bite a hole in it), put it over your hard dick and masturbate a little and you’ll see what happens. But realize ‘Confessions’ has said in the past he’s got a big dick, and the kid’s hole was tight, and that he was fucking the kid pretty hard. I know there’s no way in hell to keep a condom on the shaft of a big dick that’s pounding a tight hole…

IMHO, ‘Confessions’ not only didn’t do what he said, but he’s never doctored a condom in his life. If he had, he’d know it just doesn’t work the way he described…

Some of what ‘Confessions’ says is true. He’s fucked a couple of guys I’ve fucked (at least he says he has) and in one particular case, he described the guy’s personality pretty perfectly. But I think he likes to embellish some of the details pretty significantly… When he said he barebacked the husband of an A-list celebrity all sorts of people tried to guess who the guy was. He told me some of the comments got pretty close, and even told me who the person was. I’m tempted to spill the beans, but it’s really irrelevant - ’cause it’s all fiction… He may have actually fucked some guy in the bathroom of a mostly straight club, and the guy might have had a passing resemblance to the husband of a big name actress, but seriously…

Bottom line, Confession’s sex life is just too spectacular, and now there are serious holes in some of the critical details. I think there are elements of truth to it… I think plenty of “safe sex” guys will forego condoms in the heat of the moment, and there are definitely tops out there that will cum in a guy’s ass when the bottom doesn’t want it. I know, I’ve been there… Hell, I’ve even taken off a condom half way through having sex and then cum in the guy’s ass… [Again, not in that headspace anymore - so don't have a tizzy, plus I knew I was neg (and still am).] I’ve even barebacked “monogamous” boyfriends, but you don’t have notable sex every week or two. Real sex lives are more boring than that - even if you’re a bit of a slut…

I’m not saying you shouldn’t read Confessions (he’ll stay in my blogroll), I’m just saying you should take a lot of what he says with a grain of salt, ’cause chances what you’re reading is at least partially fiction…

Incidentally, from a professional standpoint, what he’s done (intentionally or inadvertently) is brilliant Internet marketing - but that’s the subject for another post…

UPDATE:

I’ve just become confident in a hunch I’ve had for a while… That Confessions is the same guy who for years kept literally begging me to fuck him and cum in his ass. I even went to hookup with him once - though I think he gave me the wrong address and phone number (or he’s not as attractive as his pics)… Sorta puts a whole other light on the guy… Not a bad light, just a different light…

If you’ve got a story you want to have me put up, just e-mail it to me - rawtop@yahoo.com. It can be fact or fiction, the only requirement is that someone’s gets cum in their ass… If you’re interested in blogging, but don’t want to suffer the same fate as ‘Confessions‘ or ‘Binity Bang‘, then the cover of ‘fiction’ and the mix of stories from different people could be a good way for you to put your experiences out there without your friends figuring out it’s you…

In the last one that's his boyfriend's cum leaking out of his hole… The best part was he was fantasizing that I was the one fucking him while getting nailed by his boyfriend. Gotta love that…

He's started a blog about his efforts to negotiate the whole "Be 'faithful' to my bf while enjoing being young and horny" thing… The stories are about how he goes to sex clubs behind his bf's back and gets fucked with condoms and gives blowjobs and swallows, but (at this point) is only getting loads in his ass from his boyfriend.

The kid loves cum in his ass so I suggested he find a few fuckbuddies he can trust and start taking loads from them…

I gotta get out to San Francisco sometime to give him my load…
