hi

Treat them.

It’s a numbers game. Based on the high quantity and low quality of fags I breed I do casually contract communicable infections. I’m sleazy. I enjoy likeminded fellows. While it’s not daily, weekly or even monthly I catch infections. I’m in a risky position and I acknowledge that risk, not justify it.

I’m open and honest with my healthcare professionals and receive broad testing frequently. I also know what to look for — although that’s not a wise way to stay healthy. Nothing beats the qualified care of a licensed physician. If you’re uninsured or underinsured I encourage you to reach out the the 311 information line, the internet or even me to locate a reduced cost or even free / donation based provider of sexual health testing, education and safer sex protection.

It’s not just about my heath either! I owe it to the cumdumps and the men who will use them with me or after me to maintain a healthy load to keep everyone in the best shape so we can keep the fucking going!

It should be noted that while we live in a rich county during a time of immense medical and scientific understanding there are still men & women, boys & girls who contract fatal sexually transmitted infections at a still alarming rate. It’s simply arresting to hear of the folks who may loose their lives, it’s heartbreaking to understand that an entire generation of gay men were stricken and eliminated by the HIV Virus and AIDS Syndrome Crisis in this country. An entire fucking generation. While our civilization has made noble strides to eradicate the HIV Virus and I believe that in my lifetime I will see an effective vaccine, even a cure, there are a great many serious and life threatening illnesses that may not get such attention.

It should also be noted that people who’ve been infected with the HIV Virus are of no standard danger to you. Infected individuals are our brothers and sisters, friends and coworkers, they are our children, our husbands and wives, they are our human family. But when knowing our own HIV status it’s paramount to use every tool to promote the eradication of the virus. Safer sex practices and treatment as prevention statistically prevent the transmission and infection from one human to another during sexual encounters. Speak with your doctor or health advocate about prescription medication to prevent infections. Seriously. Do it. We can end HIV.

It’s my belief that while it is our responsibility and good grace to advocate for our partners no matter who they may be, we must also take responsibility for our own behaviors. We must protect ourselves. We must be educated on the matters of sexual health, infections disease, sexual compulsive addictions and the tools & resources available to keep everyone at their best health, happiness and performance. It’s a team effort and I want you on our team! Sometimes I make poor choices. Sometimes you may too. One of those poor choices could be life changing, at worst fatal.

I know you probably didn’t expect a post like this; I know you’re probably experimenting or having fantasies. (Is that the proper use of a semicolon? Anyone?) That’s perfectly normal sexual behavior. It’s important to remember that we should never put ourselves in danger. We should never assume high risk. We should always trust our own guts. If something feels wrong — it probably is.

Wherever you go and whatever you do remember: there’s always someone to talk to. If you don’t feel safe— exit the situation. If you’re not okay with something— don’t permit it. While these concepts are fine and dandy in black and white I realize that execution can be difficult especially if drugs / alcohol are involved.
