This book analyses contemporary gay "pig" masculinities, which have
emerged alongside antiretroviral therapies, online porn, and new
sexualised patterns of recreational drug use, examining how they
trouble modern European understandings of the male body, their
ethics, and their political underpinnings. This is the first book
to reflect on an increasingly visible new form of sexualised gay
masculinity, and the first monograph to move debates on condomless
sex amongst gay men beyond discourses of HIV and/or AIDS. It
contributes to existing critical histories of sexuality,
pornography and other sex media at a crucial juncture in the
history of gay male sex cultures and the HIV epidemic. The book
draws from fieldwork, interviews, archival research, visual
analysis, philosophy, queer theory, and cultural studies, using
empirical, critical, and speculative methodologies to better think
gay "pig" masculinities across their material, affective, ethical
and political dimensions, in a future-oriented,
politically-inflected, reflection on what queer bodies may become.
Spanning historical context to empirical and theoretical study,
Bareback Porn, Porous Masculinities, Queer Futures will be of key
interest to academics and students in sexuality studies, film,
media, visual culture, cultural studies, and porn studies concerned
with masculinities, sex and sexualities and their circulation
across an array of media.
