Lee, you just go on reading what you want. Ain’t what I said, but what chance do I have of convincing you to give a shit anyway, right?

“tests don√¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢t work anyway, as the Brit-porn scandal last year proved”

Unbelievable. “Kids” if you don’t want to catch a disease, confirm your own and other’s negative status, value monogamy and long-term relationships and establish relationships with like-minded people.

1 – it’s perpetuating the myth that tops can’t catch anything from bottoms, which is utter bullshit, and it’s teaching that bullshit to children.

2 – tests don’t work anyway, as the Brit-porn scandal last year proved.

When the hell did human-kind abdicate its responsibilities to teach and protect the younger generations? Seriously, shit like this makes me wonder what future there can be for the human race.

Just two observations:

a) it is claimed that “every outside producer” is given a speech regarding HIV certificates and STD test results… Considering that Puppy bought and released material from Serbia, (IN THE RAW: BELGRADE), that particular speech must have been very interesting indeed… If the UK is described as the Wild West, I don’t even want to think what kind of description should apply to gay bareback porn coming out of the former Yugoslavia… More seriously, it is on record now that UK bareback producers only started requiring HIV certificates last year, in 2007, and how worthless (and easily falsified) those documents are has also been amply discussed.

b) as with all “Europorn”, i.e. European-made content bought and released by a US “studio”, in fact a distributor, the main incentive was and is economics. As opposed to other US players in this game (say, Helix), Puppy Productions was for a long time not forthcoming about identifying the European “talent” (for lack of a better word) involved, and most if not all was credited to the sole Thomas Bjorn. Nothing new about that, of course. But this lack of transparency does have a price when such a glitch as this Ffoulkes affair occurs.
