On today’s special edition of Feast of Fun, we’re teaming up with Lifelube and Project Crysp in conjunction with the 2009 National LGBTI Health Summit to bring you Risky Business- a raw 
discussion with a live audience at the Center on Halsted on the sex and intimacy we crave and the risk we’re willing to take.
How do adult films with bareback sex affect our sexual desires and practices?
Are videos depicting sex without condoms a hot but safe way for viewers to find pleasure or is it a dangerous normalization of risk?
We have a panel of experts here to break down the ins-and-outs of condomless sex.
Tony Valenzuela, Writer and Activist whose work focuses on the politics of gay sex, subcultures and assets based perspectives. He’s known as AIDS activism’s most misunderstood man.
Mufasa Ali, Minister and Activist, as well as co-founder of ONYX, a leather group for men of color.
Dr. Braden Berkey, Clinical psychologist whose practice focuses on gay men, and the director of the Center on Halsted’s Sexual Orientation and Gender Institute.
Chuck Renslow, the founder of International Mr. Leather Conference and Convention, was in the audience to talk about why he recently banned bareback porn at IML and the future of the ban.
This is a frank talk about the kind of sex men have in real life and how they “seroadapt” or reduce sexual harm.
For many people, this is just the start of the conversation surrounding sex without condoms, it is not the final word. If you have any questions or insight, please leave a comment and keep the conversation going. Please be respectful and refrain from personal attacks, inflammatory remarks or general hysteria.
