A man who lived in the last part of the 60' s in SF said it's where AIDS caught on on the west coast. Like animals he said lover after lover. When SEx and City started within a short time. STD's in NYC went up dramatically. Humans beings emulate behavior they watch on tv and movies, it's why we have empidemics. I don't feel bad for any gay men who contracted aids. I feel bad for children who get it mainly in Africa because men get it and then pass it to their mother of the child, it's hideous. It goes like this: When you disobey the commandments set for from our Father in Heaven, he can't protect you. The commandments are here to protect us in this world, because satan has a lot of power over people and this is his world, isn't it. Atlanta now is also a hub where you can rent children and pre-teens for sex. It's hard to believe that in just the last 30 years, we have more men who are drive by child porn and now we have people who want to take the sting away from living a gay lifestyle, so they insisted on marriage, and we gave young women who don't want the baby or have been ingesting illicit substances when pregnant, thus babes with defects, so that women groups have pressured politicans to make late term abortion available, you can ask for a shot to kill the baby still sitting in the birth canal, if you decide you don't want it. Some say it's rare, it's not that's why these new law are coming forth in certain states. Working in social services we see a shortage of healthy white babies because of abortion, and when whites adopt bi-racial or black babies, they get ostracized because people don't realize it take years to adopt or you risk getting someone who can lie in a private adoption.

I am Rico, I get what you are saying and you are right. If you going out their having sex period, you need to protect yourself. Double for this high risk sex. However, what I am hearing is that there is not a lot of outreach and funding to get the medicine as in the white community. Look around, the black community is underfunded as a whole, so you know its limited with healthcare, etc. You know they are cutting services left and right. My question also is, do these guy have regular jobs. How do they support themselves or are they just out there as if gaysex, being trangender is all they do. Its more to life than sex. After you do what you do, you have to live in reality. Is that all they do? If it is, there is a dysfunction. Its sad.

You're comment couldn't be more wrong or ignorant if 2 people are both std free and having sex exclusively with one another it's impossible to contract an std. Condoms.

That would be great, not only for gay black men but for black lesbians too. They need to use protection when sharing toys, using fingers, even a dental dam for oral sex. Also how to go about having healthy anal to avoid tearing and such. Anytime fluids are involved you should use protection, even in monogamous relationships. Men carry HPV too and most don't care since it only shows symptoms in women for the most part.

Read the study below

[@msyamgeu0n301]

It's not true. decades of studies proved that people on the treatment pill can not transmit hiv. This is nothing new, this is how people with hiv have babies without hiv. CDC officially announced this last year. You are massively behind on hiv prevention guidelines.

[@jesuswilljudge7296]

I woulndt trust cdc they still have hiv...im a woman i woukdnt let a hiv positve man dump his load in me unprotected if hes undectable

[@msyamgeu0n301]

Jesus will Judge, it is very official at this point. It's not just CDC, it's every health agency in every developed country at this point that says so. This is something to consider for long term relationship, not for someone you just met. Of course, it's best to use condoms, they will protect from other much more devastating STD's than HIV, and will protect from pregnancy too... but as of now, officially, condoms are no longer the best protection from HIV. It's a prep pill for those who do not have hiv and/or it's a treatment pill for those who r diagnosed.

[@janaejones8709]

I use to be friends with a gay white male and he was very promiscuous. He told me all kinds of stories while being in a “committed” relationship. I believe whether you are gay or straight if you weren’t taught to care for yourself or didn’t have morals and values instilled in you you’re more likely to have many many partners. It’s a deep issue and a lot of times we are looking for love or feel loved through having sex because it’s a pleasurable feeling. It’s a temporary pleasure that makes you forget your circumstances and believe it or not a bond is formed through sexual activity. You will never be fulfilled having sex with multiple partners. Parents LOVE your children no matter what! People let’s LOVE and show LOVE unconditionally.

[@p.g.6684]

Only sane person on this video is Walter. He speaks how it really works. Rest of the people are delusional. And they stated that Walter is controversial? Because he is telling the truth? This is simply insane. Education is important but also responsibility and protection.

“You may not be in this situation if people saw value in your life.” That’s a powerful thing to say.

[@rosecloud]

But we're in 2018, with easy access to internet where you can research and and get educated on the importance of practicing safe sex, we should be doing better. I see what this reporter is doing, but she seems to not even consider the answer the man is suggesting "promiscuous sex is THE problem". I understand that accidents can happen (condom breaks), too drunk to think about protection, and god forbid sexual assault, etc. But if that happens - there are options to prevent the potential of contracting HIV. Go to the hospital (if you can afford it - that's another can of worms) and get post-exposure prophylaxis pills. See if there are HIV crisis centers near you. Don't just put your head in the sand and expect it to go away. While racism and prejudice is so prevalent in this country, we need to be responsible for our lives. USE CONDOMS - it will save your life. Ten minutes of pleasure are not worth risking the rest of your life.

Omg did he say he slipped up a few times and didn't use a condom living in Atlanta well with the odds being 1 n every 2 in Atlanta it is what it is wear the damn condoms don't slip up or its your life good luck guys remember this was a choice not protecting yourself was your choice

[@perrinmontenegro]

demetrica c 😂😂😂 I was like wtf! My face looking at the screen like 🥴🥴

[@dolcevita8996]

The problem is also that HIV doesn't show itself on tests for around 6 months after contraction. So if you test your partner and the result is negative, it doesn't guarantee that he doesn't have it.

[@MrCdrant]

If the odds are 1:2, maybe that should be good convincing to get your act together and protect yourself. Poor choices (not talking about their sexuality) perpetuate these issues, there's no "fixing" it until the people involved act responsibly.

[@dii-N-sd]

They shld put that 1:2 statistic on billboards across the country, because most ppl don't realize the severity of this issue. That's scary!

human sexual behavior almost impossible to change for over 90 percent. preventative measures next realistic option. one day we will develop resistance or a cure. humanity has always overcome disease. we are the ultimate survivors.
