When It was Hot to have a SexVibe. Why did these kind of safer sex publications go away?

SexVibe had a four year run and was published by the AIDS Project Los Angeles when zines were all the rage before web pages,blogs, tweets and grindr.

It reached out to gay escorts through their Sex Essentials working group, which held safer sex workshops and made safer sex fun again and not scary.

Such workshops held included subject matter as "Latex, Lube and Beyond", Understanding Ourselves, and the HIV Negative Men's Discussion Forum.

The successful sexual encounter support group was a maintstay discussion group meeting throughout the brief existence of the zine.

My understanding of it was to teach guys to negotiate safer sex guidelines before actual intercourse.

I know most guys just like to plunge into sex, but beyond vanilla, limits should always be discussed, and the top guy MUST ALWAYS fuck with a condom, NO EXCEPTIONS.

Of course, foreplay is what makes sex sizzlin hot.

So if you and your fuck buddy hook up on VD weekend, remember to MAKE IT HOT and PLAY SAFE!!!
