Aids

[4getmenot]

Following on from something someone said in tv section. if you were about to sleep with someone and they then told you they had aids would you continue if you were using condoms?

I'm not sure bum fun is dangerous due to HIV.

There are other reasons why it could be considered inadvisible.

As for the not meaning to be patronising statement. Of course you didn't mean that. Dear.

[4getmenot]

yes there are but you are more likely to catch something through the anus and thats why gay men cannot give blood

[Pippa68]

I'm not allowed to give blood because I had a blood transfusion after childbirth 17 years ago.

This isn't because of HIV or AIDS, but because of the risk of CJD! for goodness sakes, couldn't we all be a walking time bomb because of that?

I am surprised there is enough blood in the bank nowadays. Mind you when I was giving blood before that I was never asked if I had indulged in anal sex...I suppose there wouldn't be many women who admitted to it anyway ;o)

[4getmenot]

no but if they did shouldnt gay men be allowed to give blood too. It all gets tested doesnt it?

[Shadow Man]

And to answer your other statement CD about it not being my problem. Well here's some news for you. IT IS NOT MY PROBLEM!!!!!

I wear a French letter with strangers on the occassions I do actually fancy some old tart and a fumble on the first date.

I do not inject drugs.

I am with BUPA, who I am fairly confident will check their blood for nasties before they put it in to me.

I have no intention of sleeping with African peasants.

I have no intention of becomming a gaylord. However, if David Bowie asked nicely, I may, just may, give him a hand job. But even he will not be allowed to enter me.

AIDS, I am afraid is no issue of mine. I remember the old advert AIDS, don't die of ignorance. Well I am afraid if you take precautions, AIDS should be wiped out. It is thye disease of the stupid.

Good for you.

[Reverandfunk]

Pippa your onto "that subject" again aren't you lol

[Pippa68]

Oh dear...lol Rev!

Sorry I just have this image in my head of Wardy giving Sir David of Bowie a hand job whilst wearing a french letter...

[4getmenot]

erm non of that on my post pippa. lol shadow man that got me thinking if we all did carry on using protection do you think it could die out, where did it come from in first place?

[Reverandfunk]

Whilst smoking a gitane and wearing a smoking jacket

[Reverandfunk]

The green monkey I think

[Shadow Man]

I think it was African gay men having sex with monkey's as said.

There is also a silly conspiracy theory it was leaked from some Chemical/Biological weopans plant.

[eyeshade]

What about if the condom splits and apparently it does? The answer has to be "no" surely.

[someguy0000]

afternoon all,
i think personally for me it would obviously be a shock to the system , it would depend how much i loved them and how they got it in the first place.
So for me probably yes if i had known them long enough and loved them deeply

Hi there, I have just started reading the comments regarding hiv/aids. I have hiv and got it through oral sex.
For a true and honest view of how it feels to live with the stigma of this disease please feel to ask. Also if anyone wants to ask questions feel free.
