Aaron Tyler speaks out on bareback

Porn performer Aaron Tyler has gone public on his My Space page, renouncing the high-risk scenes he made with twink bareback studio Helix: 

 ...That was when i was young and very stupid. I feel like it was a BIG mistake, but at the time i was broke and needed money and i was offered an extra hundred dollars for it. If i could go back and change this I would. It is totally UNSAFE and needs to be stopped...people look to porn for guidance in sex a lot...and when u see it in films you think "oh thats how u do it"... at least for me and people i talk to that was the case...

We asked Aaron to elaborate on his experience at Helix but, on the advice of his manager Howard Andrew of FabScout, he would not supply any specifics regarding his treatment by the studio. In Andrew's words, "I do not need the war with a studio."

No, nobody in the gay porn biz wants a war. Especially not over the issues of model safety, or the message the bareback sector is sending gay youth. Good luck, Aaron, in your post-bareback career.
