Have you seen that documentary Sundance has been showing recently, I believe it's called "The Gift" or something to that extent? It's about HIV in the gay community and the amount of people who actually WANT to get it and host sex parties and whatnot that are geared towards that. It also goes into stuff about barebacking parties and how using condoms or asking about HIV is shunned upon. I believe the common thinking is that, if they get it they can have all the sex they want or some sort of ignorance. I've seen bits of it a couple of times, both of which I was pretty freaked out after watching. I can't believe people sometimes.teiresias said:
huh? How the fuck can anyone with an actual brain actually think something like that?DarthWufei said:
You know it's beyond me, the people do exist though, however rare. But yeah, unprotected sex is far too common in all cultures now, along with prostitution, cruising, and other actions that encourage or rather make it easy to spread disease. People are just plain stupid when it comes to getting their fluids mixed, it's sad, and I really don't think things will ever turn around for us in that area.Justin Bailey said:
i guess the bonus to this is that you could have unprotected sex all the time. i could see how some would see this as a form of invincibility, and as long as you don't develop symptoms, it's as if you don't have it at all. Denial can be that strong. Thing is, HIV isn't the only STD, and with having sex with multiple partners unprotected, you're opening yourself to a host of diseases, especially as your immune system degrades. Unprotected anal sex is especially dangerous IIRC.Justin Bailey said:

I think the problem is that people knowingly have sex with HIV patients.Drexon said:Isn't there laws against having unprotected sex when infected? I know there sure are here in europe. And they should put you in jail (not prison) and make you call everyone you've ever had sex with and inform them that you have <insert dicease> and not let you go until you pass a lie detector test.
PS. If I ever found out someone was spreading a dicease knowingly and thought it'd open up a way to more sex, I'd just have to beat that person until his life's hanging by a thread. Doing anything like that is denouncing you have a brain at all, it's anti-intelligence. Not a violent person, but that just boils my noodle.

I know this is like looking for the silver lining on a tornado, but if symptoms show up much quicker, that could mean less inadvertent spreading due to years of ignorance?
