Unprotected Sex , Two Hiv Pos. Guys
Posted: 05-18-04 02:07am

Please help me. I met a guy who, like me is hiv positive, he wants to have unprotected sex. I am healthy and on medication. He claims to be healthy but is not on medication. This involves anal sex, me being the recipient (bottom). Is this a very dangerous act? Would it be safer if he pulled out before ejaculation? Question Confused

I guess there is always the possibility that something will go wrong but I haven't had a problem with recieving anal sex. I suppose you could get an infection. Have him pull out if it makes you feel better, but I am not sure what this has to do with hiv???

althought you have a point, you needn't say it with such hate.
"you people" need to be more polite

I don't really know all that much about aids. But my first thought when I read your post is "if you both have it, why do you have to be careful?" I dunno, I may be stupid for not knowing anything...

I dont know much about hiv either but I am wondering too why if you both have it would you be concerned with being careful? I mean you both already have it as it is so its not like one of you would catch it from the other..And as for you tbeck this person came here for advice not for nasty comments you could have been a bit more nicer in your response.. And yes protection is a must and should always be used but when you said you people are spreading a incurable disease you dont just get hiv from sex there are other ways..

I apologize I didnt mean you people as in you gay people, I just meant the two of you no matter what your sexual preference is. I am just amazed that you even need to ask that question having hiv yourself.

With you both having it, I would say, what the hay, but since you are taking care of yourself, I would suggest using protection. There is a possibility that maybe he could give you a stronger, more uncurable string of it, and you wouldn't want that. Just be careful.

I appreciate(most) everyones input, what was I thinking? I feel I cannot
afford to contract a more severe strain of this devastating virus. For this reason I will never practice unprotected sex. As for tbeck 12, I accept your apology but want you to know that there is alot more scary stuff out there than two infected guys who want to keep it among themselves.
We (two of us) discussed this practice specifically not to infect one who is not hiv positive. We have no desire to harm anyone.

Thanks to all, dom

Unprotected Sex-two Poz Guys

People who engage in unprotected sex risk infecting themselves and others. By not practicing safe sex, they are at greater risk of being infected with multiple strains and causing progression to disease. Unprotected sex puts individuals at risk of not only contracting hiv but of being resistance to all the drugs the infected individual has taken.

The heterosexual community is not practicing safe sex, which is evident in the statistics of hiv infection amongst heterosexuals worldwide. Studies show that anal sex is common throughout the world and in some countries 60% of adults practice anal sex. Women in the united states are reported to be seven times more likely to engage in unprotected anal sex, than men having sex with men. Condom usage is lower for heterosexual anal sex compared to vaginal sex. Many men who have sex with men do not define themselves as gay. More and more women are being infected with hiv through sexual intercourse with their male partner, unaware their partner is bisexual! In heterosexual relationships, infidelity is also responsible for increases in hiv infection among women.

With antiretroviral therapies and fewer deaths associated with these treatments, many gay people have discontinued safe sex practices. Hiv infection is not disclosed to partners and anal sex without a condom is increasing at alarming rates. So now hiv infection is on the rise again amongst gay people.

People think because we have antiretroviral therapies there is no need to practice safe sex or worry. There is no guarantee these medications will work on everyone! One out of every 10 europeans newly infected with hiv has a drug-resistant strain of the virus according to a study released at the 2003 international aids society’s 2nd conference, on hiv pathogenesis and treatment, held in paris. Multiple sex partners mean multiple infections can occur with the likelihood of infection with more than one hiv strain. This places an individual in greater danger of illness and or death as well as any person they infect. Some strains of hiv have been shown to cause illness and death rapidly regardless of immune status. The world health organization (who) has estimated 170 million people worldwide are infected with hepatitis c. Being infected with hiv may also include being infected with hepatitis c along with other sexually transmitted diseases such as; syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, human papilloma virus (hpv), herpes simplex virus (hsv), and hepatitis a, b, and/or c.

Even though the numbers of aids cases in poorer regions are growing rapidly, the problem with hiv is worldwide; people everywhere need to be aware they are at risk of infection if they have unprotected sex!

This is the kind of information that every single person needs to be aware of if we are to stop the spread of hiv!
