I don’t normally report on the gay side of the biz but with Treasure Island medias recent run ins with Cal-OSHA maybe the straight side of the biz needs to take a good look at what thier comrades on the gay side are doing. Im not saying that all gay performers and companies are engaged in this behavior but how many times has the straight side looked the other way when Rob Black or Mark Handel aka Kahn Tusion did the same irresponsible type of shit that eventually got us to exactly where we are with legislation?
Fair warning…don’t read this if you have a weak stomach.

Treasure Island Media’s Viral Loads Features Jar Of HIV-Positive Semen
If you read the press release for Treasure Island Media’s Viral Loads last month and have been on the edge of your seat waiting for the trailer, today’s your lucky day. Featuring Dayton O’Connor, Derek Parker, Drew Sebastian, Blue Bailey, Logan Stevens, and several other HIV-positive gay porn stars cumming into a glass jar labeled “poz cum,” Viral Loads is sure to be a big hit with Cal/OSHA officials.
Just what in the world are they going to do with a jar full of HIV-positive semen? Dump it all inside Blue Bailey’s ass, of course.
Blue Bailey got in touch with me the next day and said he wanted some kind of man-worship initiation. So I took a few days to set it up. When he enters the room, he knows he’s in for a real rite of passage. The willing, hungry lad gets gang-fucked by a roomful of studs. Most are poz, some are neg. Who the fuck cares? Not Blue, that’s for fuckin’ sure. ??To finish up his man worship initiation, we bring out a brimful jar full of more than 200 poz loads. Blue’s good buddies Dayton O’Connor and Drew Sebastian carefully squirt every fucking drop up Blue’s knocked-up ass. Max X slurps Blue’s jizz-leaking ass throughout, establishing himself as the new world’s felching-champion.
Well, thank goodness Dayton and Drew were careful! Who the fuck cares, indeed:
Treasure Island Media isn’t really a gay pornography studio anymore, is it? Now, their business model is 100% focused on spreading infectious diseases. But with today’s drama over AB1576—the proposed California legislation that would mandate condoms and STD testing for all porn productions statewide—TIM might not be able to celebrate infecting people with HIV for much longer. Unless they have enough money to transfer their entire operation out of state? It all seems so pointless. We’re dedicated to letting people give each other HIV, so we moved to Nevada.
The irony, of course, is that while TIM wants to make having sex and becoming infected with HIV feel like some kind of horror movie, many Americans with the virus are living longer, happier, and healthier lives than ever before. But TIM is in the business of terror and death (which is a weird thing to expect people to jerk off to) and this is all they know. It’s all they have left. And there’s still an audience for everything, I guess. Even snuff films.

And You Thought Straight Porn Was Bad…. http://t.co/ghojwVEZvP
Whoever came up with this idea needs to have his nuts and dick cut off and shoved up his ass. I don’t know if Blue Bailey is already positive for HIV or not but if not he is as dumb as a whole warehouse full of hammers. This is even more ridiculous than John Stagliano going to Brazil and getting barebacked by a tranny (even I knew back then that almost all Brazilian trannies that fuck for a living were HIV positive and I don’t let a dick anywhere near my bare ass and never have). I have heard of the SF poz parties where a gay man goes to get fucked up the ass with HIV positive dick in an effort to get HIV but Treasure Island’s bit here takes the HIV positive cake! Companies like this are why Izzy, Weinfuck and Co. can push their bullshit as far as they have been able to. Thanks a lot, Treasure Island (sarcasm intended).
How many of the guys in this flick have also worked in straight porn, or worked with guys who work on the straight side also.
Again, there is NO seperation between the two industryies anymore. The degrees of seperation between performers is to small to consider each industry seperately, and this right here is exactly why Hall’s bill will pass this time,
Anybody know anybody who can identify these performers and see what the degree of seperation is with the straight side?
I think I might actually be speechless….
Yuuucccckkkkkkkkkkk.
I guess all I can say is: I was warned. For that I thank you. I got about three sentences in and realized I was about to learn more than I wanted to know.
Just think people in porn valley, If Katie Summers loses the case against John Stag/Evil Angel, we can probably help Rob Black get
a job over at Treasure Island Media working with HIV+
male talent and taking loads up his ass for a few bucks.
Just a thought Robbie. I couldn’t get you a job at UPS,
You’re a fucking looser ex-convict piece of shit felon.
Lucky you’re on Lankershim Blvd in North Hollywood,
You don’t have far to go to the gay studios near by for work.
Besides…What about that Mennagitis shit that’s going around up there in LA? Isn’t supposed to be hitting that LA porn industry soon?
Just saw the news tonight on that. Its one thing its another in Porno LA.
Uhh…definitely a WTF event that puts eating shit in a new light.
Does TIM want to mainstream bug chasing? Can’t be Fear Factor porn cuz the guy doesn’t care?
@jilted
THE industry presenting gay/straight segments of the industry as separate or distinct industries is like saying BDSM scenes aren’t porn. OSHA compliance is the headline grabber yet DOL in its entirety can’t be discounted in any legislative process. Which means EEOC is also a factor.
I think meningitis may be covered under the first amendment?
Hahahaha.
I’ve honestly never understood how you have an industry that routinely separates “the industry” into “sub-industries.”
It happens in fields such as the medical field where you have different specialties such as dermatology, OB/GYN, surgeons, PCP, etc. BUT, they all still encompass “the medical industry” as a whole.
I would think the “porn industry” would be divided into “fetish” categories, perhaps? But, where is the actual line between what IS and what ISN’T included in “the porn industry.”
But, this is exactly what happens in self-regulating industries… Anything, and I mean anything, goes…
Could you imagine if this was reported in mainstream? They would freak the fuck out… smdh
Gotta go with WTF or I’d be a fucking bobble head SMDH over this silliness 😉
Regarding Fear Factor,,,did you know they once did an episode where they asked the contestants to drink donkey semen,,yes, donkey semen. The gross part is the contestants actually did it. The episode was never aired, but the contestants actuall did it. Guess some people will do anything for their 15 seconds of fame.
@jilted
Missed that episode, prolly cuz closing eyes or leaving the room didn’t prevent hearing them crunching eyeballs and creepy crawlers so I made the girls watch in their rooms, definitely not my cup of tea 😉
At least donkey jizz doesn’t have HIV in it. A day later I am still shaking my head over Treasure Island’s HIV positive antics. What next, syphilis parties where the guy tries to get syphilis by taking loads up the ass from ten infected idiots? They could have herpes parties too. This is ludicrous, if Blue Bailey gets HIV from the TIM scene he could be entitled to workman’s comp payments for the rest of his life and TIM’s State Fund workman’s comp premiums will skyrocket! Give me a fucking break!
Your sarcastic thanks should be directed at the performers who do this shit, and then turn around the very next day and work with other performers. There is plenty of bullshit to go around, and the performers have no one to blame but themselves for allowing, and participating in this crap.
Are lawmakers and health officials supposed to turn a blind eye to this? @Mharris,,what do you think lawmakers and health officials should do with this type of behavior in the workplace, should they just ignore it in the name of free choice and free speech?
@mharris
Will take your word for it about donkey jizz…still not very thirsty;)
Just keep coming back to WTF…even with the idea that virus doesn’t live long outside the body, I’m guessing that it remains viable in motile sperm..maybe they are counting on gastric process to kill it?
Regardless of Blue Bailey before/after status I’d think this was just an invitation to have AHF make another OSHA complaint…more WTF…I’m sure there are lawyers who would take money to defend this but can’t imagine what the defense would be…gee your honor and jury this is a first amendment expression of a fetish, here’s press releases about this activity happening in every major city to one degree or another. WTF
Forget crying about about OSHA viewing film…now they just need to read company promo…getting near bobble head territory on this one.
This is seriously how easy it is. One of those 50 dudes ends up doing a scene with Rod Daily after one of these “HIZ POZ” shoots. Apparently they mix according to this press release. Next day Rod Daily goes home and has unprotected sex with Cameron Bay.
Yes this isn’t the real situation, but I hope everyone understands what I mean by it. When you continue to mix the Gay Side of the Industry and the Straight Side you are bound to get diseases that were never really present before. Sure Syphillis, Gonnorhea, Herpes, Chlymidia etc. they are all terrible terrible diseases. None of those are nearly half as bad as HIV though. You can survive but it’s an expensive survival.
Movies like this are completely different than a performer taking 50 loads from tested performers. This is a room full of hiv positive guys, filling up a damn cup with hiv positive semen and they are glorifying it by making an entire film dedicated to it.
I am born and raised in SF. I respect the gay community, I respect kinkyness, I even respect chicks with dicks. I don’t respect glorifying spreading a disease that is pretty much the modern day version of the black plague.
i’m a gay dude and this stuff sickens me. i have no idea why this sub-genre even exists. i know hiv is treatable and not the shame/death sentence it was but i still don’t want it. seeing guys like this and studios putting this shit out is deplorable. and sadly, there are crossover guys in these scenes and studios. disgusting.
I read an interview years ago with Paul Morris, founder and president of Treasure Island Media. TIM is more like a cult than a porn studio. Morris’ philosophy is that seroconversion should be seen as a badge of honor, that a man is truly “authentically” gay and rejects all mainstream gay societal conventions. The performers who work for Morris seem to worship him. Many of the men in his films have biohazard-symbol tattoos. It’s seen as a visible sign of HIV+ status and pride in the rejection of assimilation-based (gay marriage, etc.) gay social mores. I sold and rented TIM DVDs years ago as an adult store employee. There were customers who were disgusted by and vehemently opposed to TIM’s “philosophy,” and others who were fascinated by its open transgression- watching others engage in acts that they’d never do themselves. The owner of the store stocked TIM content because he was all about the bottom line. If there was a demand for it, he didn’t care.
I am torn on this question, Jilted. On one hand we have the need to protect people from an untimely torturous death from AIDS but on the other we have free speech concerns and a person’s choice to live their lives as they wish. I would probably support a law stating that if someone is infected with HIV that person cannot perform in adult film without a signed waiver from the HIV negative person stating that he/she knows that their sexual partner has HIV and understands the risk of performing with that person. I also would support a law that affirms the producer’s right not to allow someone that is HIV positive to perform in his/her movies. I would definitely support a clause that states that if someone works with an HIV positive person he/she cannot perform in any more scenes for two months and is put on a quarantine list that is public and accessible during that time.
This is why it is up to studios to decipher who is a straight performer and who is a crossover performer.
If I ran a studio I would research every guy I hired, and if I ever found him going a gay film I would not hire based on the grounds above. Call it “discrimination” all you want, but if your having unprotected sex with guys, you are seriously seriously putting people at risk in community.
Rob Black railed Jessa Rhodes for making the statement, “Had you not been fucking a gay performer, you wouldn’t have contracted it! Don’t blame us for your wrong choices.” That is exactly right. Go through all the recent HIV+ Performers and they all have some sort of connection to either the gay porn community or the transsexual porn community.
But treasure island media will eventually get theirs. If Rob Black and Max Hardcore went to jail for their movies, TMI surely has to be going to jail for theirs.
I just dont get the free speech argument. The speech belongs to the producer, not the performer. If the speech you want to create demands that someone else be exposed to potentially deadly disease, I just dont think that free speech right trumps the right of the performer to have a safe work place.
Mainstream movies fake it. Fake guns, fake blood,,,,but porn doesnt fake it. The exposures are real, the disease is real. I just dont think that exposing someone to disease is covered by free speech.
regarding your waiver idea,,,,you cannot simply agree to break the law. The ADA specifically states that if there is an imminent risk of danger from an employee due to the hiv status of an individual the company has the right not to hire that person for that job. This whole industry argument that they will be forced to hre HIV+ people is simply not true.
What do you all think about Mr. Marcus coming back to the Industry after all that bullshit he pulled? I surprised none of the black folks in Porn aren’t throwing a bitch about that. Syphllis today and HIV tomorrow.
@mharris –
“A person’s choice to live their lives as they wish”
But, that’s the main problem here.. this isn’t someone’s personal life. It’s a JOB, just like every other job. Just because genitals are involved doesn’t make it any different. It’s nothing more than a business transaction to pay the bills.
No one is saying he can’t chug 10 gallons of HIV+ cum on his own time… just like no one is saying you can’t eat 2lbs. of your own shit at home while jerking off…
Personal lifestyles have absolutely nothing to do with this debate.
Honestly?
Who fucking cares….
They should start handing out awards for who can infect the most performers with a disease in the shortest amount of time… I think it would pretty entertaining. Sadistic entertainment at its finest.
Regarding “faking it:”
I think the main answer would be: why waste the money?
Analyze that however you wish….
I really don’t. I don’t have to put my dick up any of those nasty, diseased whores. The industry sucks anyways.
like most of the stuff on kazoos site its isnt based much on reality yea they threw him a small bone but he isnt performing, he hasnt tested in ages and is listed in pass as not available…his last test was over 6 months ago
@mharris
Following your logic…the local taser manufacturer hires folks into getting shocked cuz they like it as voltage testers. Fuck OSHA they’re IC, some of the components are tested every 14 days, have a safe words and besides people will pay to watch the footage we take including post production interviews (shhhh don’t tell, there are scenes we don’t show) and if you try to fuck with that free speech we got lots of people willing to stand up and say how much they like it…
I am glad the ADA (which is federal) already allows producers to weed out HIV positive people from performing in porn. However since the argument is that state law doesn’t provide the same protection (and to prevent a court battle when the two laws clash on states rights grounds) California legislators should specifically allow for the practice of excluding HIV positive people from the performer rolls on a producing company basis. However I also have to support the informed choice of the performers to waive protection and be as dumb as a warehouse full of hammers no matter how misguided the decision as only the performer would be a victim (as long as the producing company takes responsibility if the victim comes up HIV positive). As long as it is a truly informed decision not pushed by the producer or a company producing scenes I have trouble with the idea that government is supposed to step in to the situation and force someone to not perform with another person. With the HIV positive scenario in this article above there is more than one victim as only some of the other performers were HIV positive and there would potentially be more than one victim. Next we will be saying that HIV positive people may not have sex at all no matter what the consent situation is (even if the other person is also HIV positive), I cannot in my right mind support something like that.
Evidently it is legal already, Kink has fem-dom sites where the main part of the site is a sub getting shocked with “tazers” including cattle prods which are more powerful than BDSM play shocking devices. Also in Michigan cops are tazed with the real thing before being allowed to carry them on their uniform. Looks like my logic is already being used legally.
I know I would not hire Mr. Marcus for a scene. I promised him a while back that I was done with the profanity-laced tirades about what he did but once you forge/lie about a negative test you should be done in porn.
@mharris
Not talking about post production use…talking about the manufacture & production testing…the kind that determines harm rates & voltage expectations from a battery operated device…clearly the sarcasm was lost. Perhaps I should have suggested Live human CPR dummies for teaching Red Cross safety or auto crash survivability…bet those would be some interesting post production interviews….damn they have them..filmed autopsies
Devils film used derek anthony for several straight scenes. Anthony worked with treasure island for years and said on a forum that he barebacked with his ex boyfriend who is hiv positive.
Kinks femdom sites use male talent that works in gay bareback porn and are in +/- relationships with other guys or work with positive performers.
You “promised him.” lol Like he even knows or cares who you are…
I don’t really think he cares who I am but I made that promise to him in a thread on Adult DVD Talk where he was posting after he asked why I went off on him. For the record I definitely didn’t hold back on what I thought for about a year after he performed while holding back the info that he had syphilis but there isn’t a reason to keep hounding him as he is no longer performing. Whether he cares who I am or not (really I don’t give a damn if he remembers me or not) I made that promise and I do intend to keep it.
That’s why the condom bill needs to be enforced and fuck the FSC.
I can identify all of them and none of them work or ever worked in straight porn. TIM is not a gay for pay studio, these guys are gay.
Blue Bailey is already HIV positive.
Then I guess he wasn’t stupid to do this scene (I won’t ask how he got HIV in the first place). Hope all of the dicks shoved up his ass were also HIV+ (from the article I have to surmise they weren’t). Also the only way to sell something like this would be to infer that he wasn’t HIV+ on tape. The whole “point” of the scene would be lost otherwise. There isn’t any reason that someone that is already HIV+ getting loads of supposedly HIV+ cum up his ass would sell, the sleazy factor that would make the scene sell is lost.
