Barebacking is a term that originated in gay slang to describe acts of unprotected anal sex. The term's usage however, has crossed-over to more mainstream slang to describe any type of penetrative sexual act without the use of a condom.
The term "bareback" in equestrianism describes the riding of a horse without the use of a saddle. The logical conclusion for the origin of the word is in this similarity. There is no way to prove what person or organization "coined" the term. However, popular theories do exist.
