Chris Ward's invisible condom

Raging Stallion director Chris Ward recently announced that he has formulated  a way of filming fuck scenes so as to make condoms virtually "disappear." The San Francisco based studio will release its first faux bareback DVD "Mirage" in the coming months, and it will no doubt be a controversial turn in the gay adult industry.

There are two main arguments for using condoms in fuck scenes: the first is to protect the health of the models, who may not have the same HIV status. Post-production digital deletion of condoms would not affect model safety. However, the second argument is that videos in which condoms are used can act as subconscious reinforcers of the importance of using a rubber in real life: seeing our favorite porn stars fucking with condoms makes safer sex sexier.
