This article focuses on the pornography produced by Treasure Island Media, specifically the two films Plantin' Seed (2004) and Slammed (2012), in order to explore and analyze the ways in which they alternately seek to represent HIV and to skirt its unrepresentability with metaphorical substitutes. The article posits a link between the function of the representation of the condom and that of condomlessness; it accordingly proposes a problematization of the representation of condomlessness within bareback pornography and argues that to represent condomlessness is fundamentally antithetical to what bareback pornography postulates and indeed believes about itself.

I. Where a Woman Marries within a Year after the Death of her Husband. II. Where a Freeborn Woman Marries a Slave, or her own Freedman. III. Where a Freeborn Woman Marries the Slave of Another or a Freeborn Man the Female Slave of Another. IV. Where a Freedwoman, or a Freedman, Marries the Slave of Another. V. Where any one gives in Marriage his Slave, of Either Sex, to the Slave of Another. VI. Where a Woman contracts a Second Marriage in the Absence of her Husband. VII. Where a Master Marries one of his Slaves to a Freewoman, declaring him to be a Freeman. VIII. Where a Freewoman Marries without the Consent of her Parents. ANCIENT LAW. I. Where a Woman Marries within a Year after the Death of her Husband. If any woman, within a year after the death of her husband, should marry another, or commit adultery, the children by her first marriage shall receive half of her property, or, if there are no children, the nearest heirs of the deceased husband shall receive half of her property, by order of the court. We have especially prescribed this penalty lest the woman, having been left pregnant by her husband, and desiring to enter into a second marriage, should destroy her unborn offspring. We decree, however, that those only shall be exempt from the operation of this law, who marry within the prohibited time under order of the king.
