Anal Sex! Forget about it. It's enough I have to deal with it when my doctor uses his two fat fingers on me every year when I get my
annu
al check-up. No fun
I feel the same way.
Several guys I know died of AIDS and I know guys who are HIV+. Probably at least part of the reason I'm HIV- is that I never liked anal sex.
When I was younger, anal sex was not popular and no one ever asked, "Top or bottom?" To me, that question implies an assumption that everyone is into anal sex.
Since Tuesday, I've had a somewhat sore throat and am afraid that it could be the result of an STD. The culture from Friday is not yet back from the lab and I'm not sure whether the culture medium used would be the right one for an STD. Thursday I went to a clinic that can do STD tests, but they said that they no longer have funds available and rejected my offer to pay. So right now, I am in a somewhat anxiety-producing situation. Once this is resolved, as I see it I will have two choices: 1) Go back to living like a monk, or 2) refuse to do anything except j/o. I do not want to go through this again!!
I found an advert on Craigslist for someone who was looking for oral with condoms. I wasn't really interested in meeting him, but did want to know what kind of responses he was getting from the advert, so I e-mailed him. He said that he'd received
no responses except for mine!! His experience, and mine also, was that no one wants to do oral with condoms and that guys assume that oral is safe, even though it isn't safe.
One poster on this site, who will remain unnamed and who is very well known for his oral skills and videos demonstrating them, believes that he can tell if someone is infected. I don't believe it.
If there is a good solution for this, I'd like to know what it is.
