_In the 10th episode, Kyle struggles with having had unprotected sex with Billy, Stephen and Mike experiment with adding a third wheel and Edgar comes clean to Shawn.

IN THE MOMENT is an online web series that follows the lives of a group of gay guys living in the same apartment complex in West Hollywood, California. Like most of us, they're faced with a huge range of decisions about sex, and the decisions they make impact their lives and the lives of people around them. IN THE MOMENT is also about starting an open, honest conversation among gay guys in the Los Angeles area about these types of decisions.

IN THE MOMENT starts with an authentic, sexy and sometimes humorous web soap opera that explores the full range of factors that come into play in sexual decision making among young gay men. Issues like self-esteem, dating, relationships, age, body image, addiction and others are addressed as key factors in the lives of the characters. The episodes are broken into 3-5 minute “webisodes”, which are a starting-place for discussion.

Check out the 10th webisode below!

He Gave Me An STD

Here is a young man that tells it like it is and describes how he got an STD from having unprotected sex with another man that he met via a chat room.  He explains the process of how he became infected, what some of the symptoms of the STD were, going to the doctor and exactly how they test for STDs.  His message is to wrap it up because you can't tell just by looking at someone if they have an STD.  He said he was very lucky because he contacted a curable STD and not an incurable STD like HIV.  His message is clear...talk to your sex partners, get tested for STDs and always use a condom!  Watch the video blog below!
