BB only!

How often do you read this on someone else’s dating profile and exactly how often do you encounter this request in real life, guys?

BB can mean a lot of things but in the gay community and online dating app sites like Adam4Adam, it’s an acronym for Bareback, which means having sexual intercourse without the use of a condom. The term is also popular in text messages and even on chat forums

Having said all that, we are asking because we often encounter questions along these lines: is it really rare to find gay men who use condoms during anal sex? Whereas, they would add, that those who want to have bareback sex are commonplace.

“No one wants to use condoms anymore,” says a man on askgaybros. “Does anyone else feel like this since the wonderful breakthrough that is PrEP?? Majority of hookups are strictly no-condoms which is not as nerve-racking anymore but I’m sick of walking around with gonorrhea and chlamydia all the time.”

The man later edited his post and added: “Sorry y’all, the last sentence was a dramatic exaggeration. I have gotten chlamydia 3 times and gonorrhea once, symptomless every time. I forget that my sense of humor is hard to pick up on through written text.”

How true is this for you, guys? Is it true that every guy out there just wants to have bareback sex? Are you one of those guys who prefer bareback sex? Why or why not?

As for the men who responded on the thread online, one of them said, “I wouldn’t say no one, but the number is dropping.” He then shared, “They’re still mandatory with me. Bareback is a relationship privilege.”

Meanwhile, another man said, “It definitely felt like this when I went to London, all the hot guys were like ‘No condom or no sex’ and I was like, ‘Well it seems I’ll have my pants on this whole trip.’”

Further, another gay man replied, “That`s why I don’t fuck random people. The whole worrying about diseases is such a turn-off. Making out and giving hand jobs is more fun than that condom bullshit.”

Anyway, do you agree with them, guys or are you personally cool with bareback sex? If not, under what circumstances would you have bareback sex?  Share with us your thoughts and stories in the comments section below.
