Gay Porn’s Falcon Studios To “Digitally Remove Condoms” From Upcoming Film
The growing trend of gay porn studios switching to produce content without condoms has become so prevalent, major pro-condom studios have started to jump on the so-called bareback bandwagon.
In the most shocking (read: not shocking at all) announcement since staunch condom advocate Michael Lucas released his first bareback film and subsequently outed the HIV statuses of his performers, gay porn conglomerate Falcon Studios has announced that an upcoming film, California Dreamin 1, will feature “digitally removed condoms.” Falcon has long been one of the leading studios for condom advocacy in the gay porn industry.
Bareback porn films sell better than films that use condoms—regardless of what Internet trolls or terribly mistaken advocates will lead you to believe, this is a fact. The logic behind asking models to wear condoms and then spending a large amount of time removing them in post-production, obviously, is to sell more copies of a film while still being able to coin it as “safe.” “Safe,” here, implying that performers have little risk of transmitting HIV or other STDs while wearing condoms.
Although Falcon also owns and continues to distribute one of the largest collections of “vintage” bareback porn, they sell it under the title “pre-condom.” California Dreamin’ 1 director Tony Dimarco calls his new film “a throwback to the classic, pre-condom Falcon poolside movies from the 70′s and 80′s.”
