In 1995, writer Will Clark took his acting career in a new direction by starring in the gay adult leather film “Dr. Goodglove.”
Will Clark in the 1990s. Will says he did it for the sex and it was a huge boost to his self-esteem.
When films were first marketed as condomless or bare-back gay as the key selling point, Will raised concerns whether or not film companies that create bareback films should be eligible for winning awards like the Gay Erotic Video Awards.
Will leveraged his adult film career into blogging on gay sex and politics and he joins us today to share the story of his long, hard slippery road into porn and life as an HIV/AIDS advocate.
Listen as Will talks about the hard times he faced as a teenager growing up in Wisconsin, the debate over the impact of condom-less films has on HIV infections and how gay men’s complex relationship with barriers and condoms fuels the Rubber Fetish which eroticizes tight fitting rubber suits made out of polyvinyl chloride.

I would ride his transmission any day…
This 30 percent number being cited everywhere was only from an exit poll of about 100 people who identified as LGBT as a part of a bigger pool, so it should be taken with a grain of salt. If anything, I could see that a lot of gay voters stay home, but such a big defect to the Republican party seems unlikely. I refuse to believe that gay people are that stupid.
And they didn’t even ask the “T” people.
Great interview. I was so happy to hear Will so honest and open. That is very rare in the porn industry. You guys are such great interviewers.
Will, you rock. I am n NYC and can’t wait to meet you at porno bingo
Love Will Clark, and love you guys!
