I'm late in reading this thread I can't believe, as stonerr45 suggested, that his popularity waned. It did lessen a bit when he bottomed for Falcon but I thought Boot Black Blues was a very hot performance.

STD treatment is available from public clinics in most areas or from non-profit "free clinics" or other organizations for little, if any, money.

Ryan White Act and ADAP benefits make HIV treatments accessible to people of moderate incomes who do not have insurance. The problem is the state to state variability in what's covered in the way of social services as well as what are considered to be HIV-related conditions that can be covered, and waiting lists are a problem. Maintaining access to entitlements can be a big hassle, over time.

HIV may be "treatable", but the treatments can have serious side effects, resistance develops, etc. The oft-made analogy to diabetes is a little ridiculous (altho diabetes is not as easy as it looks, either, for many people).

There is a preview clip of Josh being bare backed by Aidyn at the website now for those who are want to have a peek. It sounds and looks quite hot, although Josh is looking a bit worn out and more in the vein of the typical trashy SX models, rather than the clean cut Falcon star he used to be.

I just saw this movie. Aidyn Michael asked Josh if he wanted his cum. And Josh begs for the load to be shot in his ass.... and gets just that....

You are right Buckguy, some low cost treatment is out there- but not enough.

I also agree that treatment can be very hard on the body.

In relation to the porn industry, there is not too much concern put into the well being of any performer, They need to take care of themselves..

People who need treatment can get it, it's a question of dealing with the hurdles to get entitlements and maintain them.

As for Josh's video--easily his worst performance in memory. He makes plenty of noise with lots of "porn speak" (e.g., "fuck my hole, fuck my hole!"), even grunting as he sucks cock, but doesn't really look like he's enjoying any of it. In one way or another, his cock is out of view until about 3/4 of the way through (either there's no view of it, the camera averts from it or he's covering his crotch)--my guess is that he was having difficulty getting wood. Aidyn Michael would look better with a few less tats, but at least they didn't pair him with one of their more trollish guys. Given the sardonic tone of some of his interviews in the past, I have to wonder if this was done as "parody" both of gay porn and the bb genre. If not, then I really feel bad for where the guy is these days. We'll have to see if he does anything else with SX and whether it's any different than this sad mess.

Here's a link to a video of Lucas model Milan Gamiani doing a bareback scene with a guy named Leo. Anyone know where this clip is from or when it was done?

Teacher Guy, that's a scene from Cazzo's Berlin Private series. I think it's #6 from the series.

Teacher Guy,

Thanks for the link. That is a really hot clip of Milan and his boyfriend Leo. Milan tops Leo at the start of the clip and for 2/3 of the time but the final 1/3 to the end when Leo pummels Milan's cum out while he is getting fucked is so hot, and as the final act of this passionate performance, at the very end, he whispers to Leo, 'I love you". Awww, so sweet.

I just watched the scene at aebn..not only does it get it bareback..his on screen partner Aidyn dumps his load inside him and pushes it in deep..
