Bareback sex refers to act of anal sex and/or oral sex without a condom. Usually a term that is used to describe male, homosexual sex.

The term became wide spread in May 2001 when Village Voice columnist Michael Musto revealed that the British-American journalist Andrew Sullivan had anonymously posted advertisements for "bareback" sex on America Online and the now-defunct website barebackcity.com. Subsequently, the Italian-American journalist and activist, Michelangelo Signorile, wrote about the scandal in a front-page article in a New York gay magazine, LGNY, igniting a storm of controversy.
