This Sex Seeker Has Condoms On the Mind

200608-condoms.jpg

Some of you are quite familiar with the online space devoted to hooking up. Perhaps too familiar? Gay.com might exist at the more mundane end of things, but sites like Manhunt.net and Squirt.org exist for the sole reason of pairing up guys for anonymous sex. And when you're in the business of matching sex partners, surely – within the depths of morality – these services bear some responsibility for encouraging safe play among their membership. And then you see that just about every third ad lists someone looking for "PNP" and there are chat rooms strictly devoted to barebacking. So what's a hookup site to do?

Manhunt.net is taking a novel approach: It hired a safe-sex outreach advocate to chat among the horny troves, bringing up safe sex methods to prevent HIV and other STDs among the "hrny bear lking 4 NOW" and "young hung twink needs daddy." No word yet – and perhaps there never will be – on whether screenname "VIPBoy" is yielding many results, but now it's time to push for more than just one paid chatter to be responsible for the masses.

I've been doing outreach on manhunt here in Baltimore for a while - and you're right, it's a great way to meet people "where they are." My project focuses on crystal meth and all of the risks that go along with it.

And for the record - Manhunt is a VERY friendly and responsible company - there's a staff member exclusively devoted to community health issues and they gave me a free account for conducting outreach. They also offer free or discounted banner ads for public health projects.
