Bit about my friend Pete from London, he's a single guy
living and working in London as a teacher - As you'll see he has strong
views on safe gay sex and belives that SAFE SEX is the only type of sex
you should be having and the use of a condom doesn’t
have to be an annoyance, it can be a part of the foreplay just prior
to penetration
I suppose that in this day and age of disease and
such you would almost think we were back in the Dark Ages. You know
the time when Plague rules and people who got sick rarely saw a next
birthday and yet here we are, centuries later still forgetting that
staying alive is something we can do something about. It isn’t
necessary to be fatalistic either because today many diseases like
AIDS can be managed, and maybe that is part of the problem too. We
have forgotten the horrors of certain death.
Simple things like taking an aspirin to help the heart, walking that
extra block to the local store for a pint of milk instead of taking the
car. All things we can do that we don’t, to keep ourselves alive,
just like forgetting the box of condoms when we go out to get laid. We
have become accustomed to living in the moment instead of thinking a
little bit more about tomorrow.
We have all heard the complaints that rubber’s (condoms) ruin the
feeling, that they inhibit one or are just too damn annoying to put on
in the middle of a hot moment between you and your partner. Interesting
complaints and while it might be true, the point is that it doesn’t
have to be that way. It is habit to look both ways before crossing a
busy intersection, otherwise you wind up as road kill, so why not make
it a habit to keep a condom in your pocket? To suit up when the old pulsing
digit is sticking out like a sore thumb? Both save your life, so what’s
the big deal?
Putting a condom on doesn’t have to be an annoyance. It can be
quite erotic actually if you make it so. It can be a part of the foreplay
just prior to penetration but so many are unimaginative that it becomes
a chore. Keeping yourself alive is not really a chore, living with HIV
can be.
If you seriously engage in anal sex or unprotected sex simply
because you think its too much work to suit up, think of the daily regime
you will have to go through to keep the virus at bay. Think of the daily
dose of drugs you will need to take on a set schedule. Then think about
how all that could have been prevented by simply unrolling a tiny piece
of plastic over your throbbing dick.
