IS "DAWSON'S 20-LOAD WEEKEND" THE MOST IMPORTANT GAY PORN FILM EVER MA?

Gay adult film star Steve "Tpig" Hurley passed away on Easter Sunday Palm Sprgs.

TREASURE ISLAND MEDIA LNCH CHARY MERCHANDISE TO BENEF GAY UKRAIAN SOLDIERS

Hurley, whose real name was Pl Yger, appeared gay adult films for over 15 years and is remembered as both a nsummate profsnal and an outgog and lovg person.

"He set a new standard for what the image of what a gay porn star should look like, " iend and star Christian Mchell told Xbiz.

In the middle of this rowdy bacchanalia the fall of 2003, Pl Morris stood at the booth for Treasure Island Media (TIM), the gay porn outf he found that featur unprotected sex (barebackg) between s actors. Prr to the onset of AIDS, ndom age gay pornography was nonexistent -- but that was before bodily fluids beme synonymo wh ath and disease. For well over a after the crisis began, gay porn vios featured not only tightly wrapped penis, but their storyl -- ed, the actors themselv -- suffered om a sort of dramatic malaise, as if sleepwalkg through their sexual route while tryg to pay no attentn to the man wh KS lns behd the curta.

HE’S THE TREASURE ISLAND MAYOR, HE’S GAY AND FALLY HIS ‘THENTIC SELF’

As AIDS aths subsid wh the advent of new meditns 1996, gay male culture rpond wh a vengeance.

GAY SOLDIER UKRAE: “IF I’M PTURED, THEY WILL TORTURE ME”

Reclaimg a bold sexualy -- somethg many gay men believed had been lost forever -- was a tonic for the post-trmatic strs they suffered.

Younger gay men, who had listened to stori of an earlier, sexually liberated time as if were a lost era of paleontology, were more than willg to explore whatever morn versn might awa them. Unprotected sex sce the arrival of HIV is nothg new -- is, after all, the primary reason for new fectns that have ntued fairly steadily sce AIDS began -- but the late 1990's the gay muny proved aga how illy apt is at applyg a ltle brandg to any phenomenon, and "barebackg" entered the public lexin. It wasn't the sex that had changed, but the meang and judgment associated wh towards, most specifilly, gay men.

None of the leadg gay pornographers would nsir producg them (although they were eager to market their highly-profable backlists of vios produced "pre-AIDS" that featured bareback sex). Their explos were perceived as an unrground fetish that would never break the surface of more mastream gay pornography.

But then Max Sohl met that ferocly attractive man om the Folsom Street Fair who was so eager to "get seed" by a strg of strangers, and wh the sexual zegeist now primed for their arrival, they ma a film that would forever change the porn dtry and que arguably fluence the sexual behavr of untls gay men. While asms gay porn before AIDS typilly showed the top whdrawg om his partner and spillg his semen across his partner's backsi, the tops servicg Dawson had a different and very liberate missn: to whdraw only long enough to prove their asm, and then re-enter Dawson immediately to show the jectn of semen. This is how gay men have sex now.

"Bareback porn pani have blood on their hands, " beme a mon rea among gay men and health advot. Gay sex advice lumnist Dan Savage equated the vios to child porn, believg they take advantage of the naive and the vulnerable.

Gay porn s that once refed to feature bareback clips began cludg them. Perhaps, then, the film was a treatise on the kd of sexual liberatn available to HIV posive gay men today, monstratg the "new normal" for those who take their meds, elimate the viral activy their blood, and "fuck eely and whout fear, " as TIM founr Pl Morris once put . Their vio pas are available onle everywhere and for everyone, cludg young gay men who are jt g out and surfg the ter for validatn of their sexualy.

It picted a prevailg tth about gay sexual behavr "post AIDS, " and arguably enuraged risky sexual adventure-seekg.

To dismiss this film, to mimize s social and cultural impact, would be to monstrate a profound misunrstandg of gay sexualy today. "Barebackg is a right, " gay anthropologist Eric Rof once wrote.

How foolish, prcient, liberatg, enlighteng or stctive barebackg may ultimately bee is somethg that may only be revealed the next chapter of our gay muny's troubled history.

"The brave gay men are not jt battlg for the eedom of their untry. They're also a fight to the ath agast a homophobic regime for the right to live eely as men who love men, " a spokperson for Treasure Island Media said the release.

By wearg this gear, you n support the gay hero and help make a difference to their fight for survival. " A post on STR8UPGAYPORN oped, "Treasure Island Media isn't really a gay pornography stud anymore, is ? Why might that be a sexy thg for some gay men?
