    SO GLAD TO HEAR BRIT BOY!!!

    I am a big supporter of HIV education. My brother passed away in 1999 from AIDS related illnesses. Were you aware that the most people at risk in the USA are African-American females? It is no longer the "Gay Man's Disease." Safe sex is so so so important and fact is those who practice more safe sex is the Homosexual Male community. Condoms may be a pain in the neck, but they greatly reduce your chances of contracting HIV. Polyurethane condoms are the most effective, since are not porous.

    HIV and AIDS does not discriminate against you for your sexual orientation, race or if you a man, woman or child. Please be safe everybody.

    Anyhow, Brit, great to hear the news. I wish you and your loved ones a long and very healthy life!

    Without attacking your lifestyle directly, doesn't this make it unnatural for two men to be together?

    Great news BritBoy.

    I agree with Mr.Moe, in the U.S. the most people at risk are African-American females. I have delivered several women who were not only were HIV positive but also in AIDS. There is no way to be completely "covered" when doing deliveries or prevent needle sticks. So I can relate to your anxiety about being tested and worried about the ramifications if it were positive.
    Just telling you this because there are many others who are at risk of becoming infected with HIV than just the stero-typical gay population.

    Yoyo,

    So anything that might spread a virus is unnatural?

    That eliminates a lot of human interaction as being natural.

    Hey Britboy,

    I'm very happy to hear your test was negative and that your stressful waiting period is over.

    Yoyomama, I guess you think that calling someone's lifestyle unnatural isn't a direct attack. I've always believed that those who condemn/attack homosexuals have latent homosexual tendencies. Come out of the closet, you'll feel better about yourself.

    Peace!

    Hi Britboy, I'm so happy to hear everything turned out ok. You helped me out big time about a month ago and I will never forget it.

    Don't know where I'd be without helpful people like yourself.

    I don't want someone in my life I can live with. I want someone in my life I can't live without.
