First the good news (since I don’t want it lost in the middle of the post)… Once again I tested HIV negative. (Any neg, STD-free bottoms want a load from a recently tested top?)<\/p>\n
However… The day after my last hookup<\/a> it became abundantly clear that I had gonorrhea. It’s a pain in the ass (or dick in my case), but it happens. Like a good responsible top I contacted everyone who might have possibly gotten it from me (or who might have possibly given it to me) – five of them in all (1<\/a>, 2<\/a>, 3<\/a>, 4<\/a>, 5<\/a>)…<\/p>\n I’ve had clap once (or twice?) in the past, but this time it was really pretty gross… Produced a lot<\/span> of discharge and was really painful (not just when I was pissing). Unfortunately I had to wait until Monday to get things cleared up.<\/p>\n Then I got a message on Sunday from a hot guy who wanted to hookup. I told him I couldn’t – that I needed to clear up an STD – get back to me in a week… That was in the morning. In the evening he writes me and says…<\/p>\n u just have the clap. its kinda a non issue to me, i can get penicillin too. tonight perhaps?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n My jaw dropped… I mean this wasn’t some skanky drugged out cumdump… This was the type of guy I would go out of my way to fuck – he really was pretty hot and totally my type…<\/p>\n Let’s put aside for the moment the medical issues of getting and STD. How does he think it’s worth it to have a quick hookup that requires him to spend hours going to a clinic, waiting, seeing a doctor, and getting a shot? I mean, in the least<\/span>, it’s a significant inconvenience. It’s one thing when it’s an accident, but to willingly do a hookup knowing you’ll get gonorrhea is something completely different.<\/p>\n Lately I seem to be encountering more and more guys who are just being reckless\/careless… Barebacking isn’t inherently reckless – you can be completely sober, and purposeful and still have a great time being a total pig. It’s just sad to see guys spiraling… I’ve always been a bit of a control freak, so it just doesn’t make sense to me…<\/p>\n So I went in Monday night to get things “fixed”. They did a quick HIV test and it came back negative, as I expected. The HIV counselor was great. The doctor doing the other tests was a bit old school. He gave me a lecture on how I should use condoms, and insisted on testing my butt for stuff despite the fact I told him nothing goes in there… And then he gave me prescriptions for STDs I didn’t have assuming if I had one STD, I must have 35 others. Whatever… Got my shot and everything has cleared up…<\/p>\n So guys – please<\/span> take STDs seriously… Get yourself tested regularly, go to a clinic when you think you might have something, and notify your partners when you find out you do have something. ‘Cause frankly – our time is better spent fucking than waiting at clinics to get rid of STDs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" First the good news (since I don’t want it lost in the middle of the post)… Once again I tested HIV negative.
