Bareback Rule of Thumb

Anyone got a rule of thumb about when to go bareback with another couple?

We're both D/D free and get tested yearly but don't mind going more often to get tested. Pregnacy is not an issue with either of us: vicectomy and tied tubes.

our bareback rule is easy! LOL

Bareback rule 1
Don't go bareback with playmates

Bareback rule 2
refer to rule 1

Bareback rule 3
don't get caught by the other partner missing rule 1

Bareback rule 4
always remember -- bareback isn't even fun when riding a horse.

IF we really trust the people we're with (and we have to REALLY trust them) then we MAY go bareback. But generally we don't as we meet most of our partners in the clubs.

same here.

I like to think that all of "MY/OUR" play partners follow the same rule as well... but unless I followed them everywhere, all the time how could I be sure?

BUT for those people whom I do not play with...

If you are in a closed group... that does not EVER play with anyone outside your group and you ALL get tested regularly... I'm not playing with you anyway... if you feel comfortable with that... do your own thing... who cares.

BettyAnnMBSC, i love your avatar, its so cool... anyway we have the same rule we are d&d free and get tested every year as well but better to be safe than sorry even though we are perticular about our partners

[Chris&Amelia]

Always with playmates, with one exception, and one possible exception...

1) We play bareback with another couple I've known since high school. And they use condoms with everybody else.

2) Lately, we've been discussing going bareback with a female playmate of ours we've known for the past six years. But only after I get a vasectomy.

Otherwise, "no glove, no love"

[PaulKing]

Always natural "bareback" sex.

Reason: - See thread "FDA is considering (at long last) banning latex condoms"

I believe in safe sex which is very clearly latex condom free sex.

First of all I find it curious that heterosexuals would adopt the homosexual lexicon, i.e., "bareback". ( I study the ways of my political adversaries)

I could say "better safe then sorry" about wearing a helmet while driving, but I choose to risk it.

I confess to having walked the streets of big cities alone, but choose to risk it.

I like adventure sports, each of which, like driving, can kill me quickly....but I risk it.

I swim in the ocean with no protection against sharks, but I risk it. Come to think of it, electric eels have been known to shock people so badly, they have drowned......speaking of that, I engage in unsafe bathing because I don't have anti-skid strips on my bathtubs or shower floors.....

I stay armed in my home, but it is in the nightstand drawer....I know I am risking not being able to get to it quickly, but it is a chance I take.

On that note, I don't have an intruder alarm in my home, I know that would wake me up if someone broke in, but I risk it. I figure it is cheaper to just terminate them then pay a monthly fee....

Cops in these parts seem to have a penchant for beating the crap out of people and killing them, but I take the risk.

I do some hiking now and then, and I hear brown and black bears have been known to kill people, but I still go hiking even though it is taking a chance.

Every once in awhile I take the train, even though alot of people have been killed doing so, but I take the chance.

I still fly commercial passenger jets, even though they seem to crash and kill alot of people....and seem to be prime targets for terrorists. I know I am taking a chance.

I always have new cars now to lessen the chance of fires, but I don' tinsist my riends have new cars when I hop on in.

I don't take and have never used drugs, and I don't engage nore have ever engaged in male homosexuality, nor am I a blood product recipient...


When I ride my bike in the boonies, I know I run the risk of a lethal confrontation with mountain lions, but I confess to engaging in such risky behaviors.

I know when I shake peoples hands, I run the risk of getting HPV viral partcles on my hands......I know that is risky....when I have had warts on my fingers, I didn't wear rubber gloves till they disappeared as a child, I just got them frozen off....

I know I should be wearing a positive pressure respirator to prevent SARS, and I know I am taking a risk......

Every great once in awhile I have been known to have a Burger King Charbroiled Whopper, which has alot of unhealthy fat in it.....I hear the lawyers say I can become addicted to it and die from arterial sclerosis, but one every 3 months or so is risky but I do it anyway.

In fact, I have had condomless intercourse and oral sex with body fluid exchanges with well over a 100 women, but it was always safe sex because I never aquired any diseases.....now because I can afford it, I periodically get tested for friends peace of mind.....I know I run the risk of getting an infection and death from the syringe they draw blood through, but I risk it.....

I only have sex with upper middle class women of the same race as me....now I know that may be more risky then sex with, say, British Royal Family members, but I risk it.....do you think if I switched to having sex strictly with high class women, it might be safer? nah, I think I will risk it.....because I am not a congenital, paranoid hypochondriac.

[Tanman aka Mike and Marie]

We won't risk it..................

Married for 22 years, love each other, plan a long life together, have 2 good kids, looking forward to retirement someday, want to grow old and cranky together.

Engage in some oral contact with others now and when we do decide to have intercourse with another couple we will use condoms and maybe some other protection if available.

Why ?

Because we won't risk any of the above

[PaulKing]

The concept is fine but unfortunatly it has now been proven beyond the slightest possibllity of a doubt that condoms are NO protection and pose a very considerable and serious health risk.

Very best wishes,

Paul

Regularguy:
I looked at your post more than once before replying. If I missed your point or just plain missed something, I apologize.
Your comments about risky behavior seem to indicate that the only risk is to you. It's like the lame argument about not wearing a seatbelt _ "It's my life." True. But your actions effect others. In this example, your accidental death would raise my insurance rates long after you're gone.
The same is true of all risky behaviors. If you think it is only effecting your life or health or peace of mind, you aren't paying attention.

Well we only not use a condom if we know the person we are with and if it is somebody we totally trust. Condoms is a rule until we know the person for a while.

We have only went bareback once so far but soon it will happen again and I am looking forward to it. We do get tested every 6 months and do not make it a habit of going without one.

[thekolonel]

Went bareback a couple of times with a female play partner of ours. I'll never do it again. Wasn't worth the anxiety it caused later on.

I don't want to make babies. There are some crazy women out there who don't use any form of birth control. And I don't trust a casual partner enough to leave this in her hands. This alone is reason enough never to go bareback. Paternity suit? No thank you.

That's exactly why I won't go bareback with our female playmate until I get a vasectomy. While we've known her for a while and she's good friends (obviously) with both of us, due to medical reasons she can not use the Pill. She's limited to the diaphragm for birth control. She's told us that she wants to feel me "fill her up" when I ejaculate, but until I can be sure it won't result in the piddle-padder of little Chris', it ain't gonna happen.
