What does bareback mean?
Bareback or barebacking refers to unprotected vaginal or anal intercourse, i.e. without a condom. For many, the attraction is that everything can be experienced more directly and intensely – no material in between, the feeling is pure. The decision to forego protective measures is therefore usually made consciously and often in full knowledge of the risks. A significantly higher risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) such as HIV, chlamydia or gonorrhea.
