When it comes to finding gay porn, your options are pretty much limitless–as are the chances you could expose your device to nasty trojan horses and other unwanted bugs. But in 2019, we’re doing things differently. There will be no more unprotected porn sessions or crashed computers. Starting today, we’re standardizing premium porn subscriptions, streaming porn virus-free in HD, and with confidence!
Safe gay porn: Best practices
Of course, accidents sometimes happen, and even the safest porn sites can sometimes fall victim to an attack. So before you get started, here are some best practices for when you’re surfing, especially if it’s a site we didn’t recommend. If you really want to be safe, you should stick to premium sites, which rely on subscriptions (as opposed to ads) to make money. Not only are these sites safer, they’re also more likely to produce ethical porn and fairly compensate performers.
1) Use a VPN
Even if you’re not watching porn, you should probably be using a VPN. A VPN blocks sites from reading your IP address, location, and personal information whenever you visit. More importantly, your ISP can’t see what sites you’re visiting while you’re using a VPN. For your privacy, make sure you always use one, especially while banking or viewing a site that you might not want people to know you’re visiting.
2) Use the right browser
Anyone covering their porn tracks knows to use an incognito browser when they’re viewing porn, but the browser you use can also make an impact. For your safe porn viewing, we suggest using Firefox, particularly if you plan on visiting unverified sites. Firefox’s deep customization features and supported add-ons make blocking sites from running active content without your permission and blocking pop-ups a breeze.
3) Don’t touch any ads
Think of the ads on any porn site like the walls of a peep show booth: It’s best for you and everyone around you not to touch anything. If you notice pop-ups on a safe site, close the window immediately. If you accidentally touch an ad, or if a file downloads on your computer, stop what you’re doing and delete the file. A little due diligence will help keep you safe when you get caught off guard.
4) Check your billing agreement before checking out
Viruses aren’t the only worry you need to consider when it comes to your online safety. Some paid porn sites have “suggested offers” included in their billing agreements, services that might start with a $1.99 for a week and $29.99 per month after.” This might not exactly be a scam, but it’s annoying and at least a little dishonest. Always double check before you hit pay.
5) Use a backup email and password to sign up
Porn sites are a natural target for hackers, but sometimes you need to sign up with an email to get access to features you want or subscribe. That’s why we suggest using a backup email and password to sign up. That way if a hacker ever steals a site’s information, you don’t have to worry about changing your banking and Gmail passwords.
Safe gay porn sites
We’ve tested each of these sites personally, clicking through links and ads to uncover any time bombs waiting for viewers. From free porn videos to paid memberships and erotica you won’t have to stress over, here are some of the best and safest gay porn websites.
Men.com
Since its launch in 2003, Men.com has become one of the most sought-after porn sites for videos of gay and bisexual men. The site boasts about 800-plus gorgeous (and penis-obsessed) models, which is about as real as it gets. So if you have a thing for bulky, beautiful men, and safe porn, Men.com is your new go-to. And since it’s updated daily, you’ll never run out of fresh content.
Say Uncle
There are thousands of porn sites, but when you want to explore your deepest fantasies Say Uncle is number one. Subscribers get access to 16 safe fantasy themed porn sites focusing on a range of kinks. From the Mormon based Missionary Boys to the gorgeous men of Euro Hunk and Brother Crush’s step-family kink, among others, Say Uncle delivers a ton of kinky content.
Male Access
Male Access might be the best gay porn site for subscribers who are looking for safe porn on mobile. The standard version of this site is streaming only, offering subscribers unlimited access to five full sites. You get Men.com, Sean Cody, Bromo, Czech Hunter, and Reality Dudes for one low price. With almost 1,000 videos to choose from across the various sites and new additions added almost every day, Male Access is an incredible deal. Plus you can rest secure it won’t damage your phone.
Nextdoor Studios
Next Door Studios is a safe gay porn supersite in the spirit of straight porn pioneers Brazzers. Updating with new scenes multiple times a week, each featuring a slightly different theme, Next Door Studios offers a steady stream of hardcore content. Your membership includes 4,000+ scenes, thousands of 4K scenes, a diverse range of performers, and 17 included subsites. While a few subsites aren’t updating anymore, Next Door Studios delivers an incredible value for its cost. High recommended.
Sean Cody
There’s a special quality to amateur porn that other adult film categories just seem to be lacking. The producers over at Sean Cody know this, which is why they’re super selective about the models they hire–none of which are allowed to have had prior experience in the porn industry. That’s part of what makes Sean Cody one of the best and safest porn sites for amateur, gay, and hardcore porn.
Cockyboys
Founded in 2007, the Cockyboys’ mission is to give subscribers exactly what they want–videos of hot men having sex–without any of the gimmicky storylines. This approach to porn is actually what caused Cockyboys to gain popularity within the industry–so much so that the site also released a photography book featuring some of its most popular models.
Icon Male
Icon Male may not be a household porn name, but it very well should be. This legal and safe porn site offers a nice mix of both erotic films and sexy shorts, as well as the option to download content (for those of you that believe streaming just isn’t enough). The Icon Male vision involves romance, taboo, and a sense of genuity that is lost on many other porn sites. So if real intimacy is what gets you off, you’ll be nothing less than pleased by Icon Male.
Falcon Studios
One of the oldest safe porn sites, Falcon Studios (AKA Falcon Entertainment) has been producing some of the hottest hardcore porn since 1971. Founded by gay porn pioneer Chuck Holmes, Falcon Studios provides subscribers with award-winning video clips, photos, streamable movies, and DVDs (because apparently, they’re still a thing?).
Bel Ami
When you hear Bel Ami, you probably think of that novel by Guy de Maupassant and not a safe porn site. Well, those two things do have one small detail in common… European men! So if an American accent just doesn’t do it for you, look no further than Bel Ami. For over 25 years, this secure porn site has provided subscribers with seven new videos every week, free downloads, thousands of HD videos and pictures, interviews and behind-the-scenes previews.
Reality Dudes
Everyone has a type, and if yours is “bro-y college hunk,” Reality Dudes is about to become your new favorite porn site. Some of the most popular videos on the site include “straight” dudes being seduced, virgins enjoying their first time, and voyeurism.
Hot House
If you’re a firm believer that bigger is better, you’ll want to peep the bareback porn on Hothouse.com. For the last 25 years, Hot House has orchestrated some of the steamiest, and safest gay HD porn videos involving big dicks and even bigger biceps.
Free safe porn: Secure, virus-free sites
12) xHamster
Is xHamster safe? Well, it’s a great porn site, especially if you’re into obscure uploads of out-of-print ’90s titles. You can browse freely knowing the porn site don’t employ aggressive pop-up ads and malware when you go to stream video. As a bonus, xHamster easily features the most adorable mascot in pornography. If you want extra features they also offer a Premium option.
13) XNXX
This no-frills porn streaming site might not look like much at first, with its simple blue background and low-rent design. But what it lacks in aesthetics, it makes up for in quick load speeds and a complete lack of intrusive ads. There are better-looking sites online, but XNXX won’t get your computer sick. Premium options are also available.
