And 47 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: we have our guests to bars today. Yeah, speaking right now, 48 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: speaking right now. So UM, I guess if you guys 49 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: haven't noticed by even the intro today, UM, today, we're 50 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: actually gonna be having a more UM, more deep conversation, 51 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: something that's a little bit more educational and something that 52 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 1: I honestly didn't think we would ever get to touch on, 53 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: because I didn't think we would ever have anyone open 54 00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: enough to come into the studio and talk with us 55 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: about about this. But our guest today in the studio 56 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: UM has HIV. UM, and so this is gonna be 57 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: an episode where we can talk about how you're living 58 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: with HIV, how you got it, UM, debunking some of 59 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: the things that are associated with it. UM. Because as 60 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 1: much as we talk about how amazing sex is and 61 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: how much we be sucking dick, I think that it's 62 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: also very important to know that we are educated in 63 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: the realm of sex, and we like to continue learning, 64 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: um more about the risks associated with the pleasures of 65 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 1: the things that we like. Um So, I guess we 66 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: can start. So normally when we have guests, we like 67 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: to do kind of an ice breaker. Um and this 68 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: icebreaker is going to be different than any other. What 69 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: I wanted to do is actually kind of debunk some 70 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 1: of the myths. No, it's actually kind of like, um, 71 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say things that people may think is associated 72 00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: with with HIV, and what I want you to do 73 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: is maybe talk about how it's not true. And of 74 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: course I did a little bit of background research as 75 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: well to to kind of furthermore let you guys know 76 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: that these are not the case. Um So the first one, 77 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: oh my god, there's one that I didn't know already. 78 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: You can't get HIV from insects. I thought that they 79 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: were saying you can't get sex from what HIV from 80 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 1: insects when they say, like, I thought that it could 81 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: be transferred through like mosquito bites, and oh that was 82 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: they would have. There was always a thing that they 83 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: would say about like, oh, if you go to like 84 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,839 Speaker 1: the rainforest, you go to Amazon, you go to Africa, like, 85 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: some of the insects can infect you with you you'll 86 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: get maybe yellow fever or anything else. You can't get 87 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 1: any animals. Remember that you're you're totally off of my 88 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,159 Speaker 1: my um. Yeah, we're reading the ship together, but that 89 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: was going to be after the myths. Those are not myths. 90 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 1: Those are ways you cannot contract. These are the myths. 91 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: Read the outline, hope, I'm reading things that you can't. Yeah. Yeah, 92 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: So the one of the first myths that I wanted 93 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: to debunk is that HIV is a gay man's disease. 94 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 1: It's not. And so do you have anything further on, um, 95 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:14,359 Speaker 1: maybe how HIV doesn't discriminate? And um me I was 96 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 1: born fit you were you were born with HIV okay, 97 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 1: and so your mother had it and passed it down 98 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: to here. And so was this something that upon birth 99 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: your mom was notified of did they give you medication? 100 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 1: That was their complications with your birth because of knowledge 101 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: because at my mom not because she had passed away 102 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: like about four years ago, but to my knowledge and 103 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: when we had my mother had those talks, it was 104 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: more so that she don't know how she how she 105 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: contracted herself because because she was doing drugs at the time, 106 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: she was shooing heroin and having sex with people. Once 107 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: saw that, but I think you tracked to do it. 108 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 1: Do birth, okay, And so I guess I wondered the 109 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 1: percent of people that they're born with HIV. Yeah, now 110 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 1: it's better because I'm going to nineties. So like nineties, 111 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 1: late eighties is when messages are really coming out, okay. 112 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 1: And that's also when yeah, we weren't even just aware 113 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: of what it is. And so I want to talk 114 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: to you about the second myth. So the second myth 115 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 1: is that being diagnosed with HIV is a death sentence. 116 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: It's not. And you're and your how old? So you've 117 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: been living with HIV for twenty five years and at 118 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: any point during any doctor's visits did any of your 119 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: doctors say you have this much time to live? Nahum, 120 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: we're also a concerner of my mother because doing doing 121 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: like the early nineties, the eighties, Um, the medicine was 122 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: not as advance like some people have. Medicines was really 123 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: in the testing phases. I think the better way to 124 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: describe this stuff before we even get into that is, 125 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 1: like people think HIV and AIDS are the same. Oh 126 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 1: is that right? Okay? Oh so yeah, we'll definitely have 127 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 1: to to go into that because a lot of times 128 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 1: you even see just HIV backslash AIDS um and I 129 00:06:54,800 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: believe AIDS is just higher. Do you know the form 130 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: after HIV. I have to because once you go on 131 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: to age, you cannot have HV no more, okay, because 132 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: h is a the virus is sleeping, okay, and AIDS 133 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: is the final step. You cannot cannot reverse it. It's 134 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 1: like once you have it magic Johnson have v HIV, 135 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: has HIV. Ok Yeah, people say he has AIDS because 136 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: at the time that it was but it was like, 137 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: so say so new because it's it's easier to live 138 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: with HIV. It's like it's it's it's a lot of 139 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 1: medicines that are advanced to where you can keep yourself 140 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: from the point of AIDS. And I think what you 141 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: were saying is in the early nineties and eighties, a 142 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: lot of people dying from HIV because they didn't know 143 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: how to keep it from getting to a And so 144 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: are your doctors telling you that you have HIV, now 145 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: you're gonna have AIDS at this age? Like does it? 146 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: Does it? Are you you know, are you bound to 147 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: have AIDS having HIV or Now there's always it's always 148 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 1: gonna be a what if when you have HIV. So 149 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: pretty much like if you have it, if you take 150 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: your messine at all, you get oh so, so the 151 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: medicine that you're taking with HIV is is what's keeping 152 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: you from getting AIDS. Oh okay, that's something that I 153 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: wasn't aware of. Um So another myth that I found, 154 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: and this was actually something that related to our Herpies conversation. 155 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: So a myth is that it is the sole responsibility 156 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 1: of hip positive individuals to initiate safe sex. Now we 157 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: say this and we're going to talk about more so 158 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: when you're dating. But I feel like people who have 159 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: herpies or have HIV, or have any of these sexually 160 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 1: transmitted diseases, people put it solely on that person to say, hey, 161 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 1: we have to use condoms. And I think it's very 162 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 1: important to know that everyone needs to sit here and 163 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 1: if you if you're not aware of your partners and 164 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: people that have HIV one point one million in the US, 165 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 1: but one point one in every seven of them don't 166 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 1: know they have it. Oh wow, Yeah, and that's actually 167 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: a lot. Yeah, herpes was one three an adulted decline 168 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: from in the last seven years went down by so 169 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: people are because has been more advanced. Now, yeah, I'm 170 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: reading that particularly young black men. UM and it says 171 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 1: gay men are most affected. And again I think that 172 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 1: comes from just the lack of us being able to 173 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: get insurance and education on sexually transmitting diseases. UM. One 174 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 1: of the other myths that I saw that was actually 175 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 1: really interesting to me that I actually didn't know it. UM. 176 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: It says having sex with someone who is HIV positive 177 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: means you will contract HIV. And that's what do you 178 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: have these conversations the people that you date like, it 179 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: depends on who I'm talking to, because I know for 180 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: a fact that let me say, the converts with you 181 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: and you found I found that you are a little 182 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 1: bit ignorant or at a little childish. I'm also not 183 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: tempted to really tell you because they when you do 184 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: come up, you acting like child Oh, oh I'm gonna 185 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: get it or this is third right, so I have 186 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: it now, and that that blows up my psyche. Oh 187 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: I'm doing something wrong. And that brings back to my 188 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: childhood or live with it. Okay, okay, you tell all 189 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: your partners before, so yes, for most of what I do, 190 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: and you're keeping from telling them. Um, for most was younger, 191 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: it was more hard for me to deal with it right, 192 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: just openly tell someone I have at CHEV because going 193 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: up my hospital and my doctors had told me don't 194 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 1: tell nobody. Wait, your doctor's told you not to tell people, yeah, 195 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: back in the early days. And I think because people 196 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: used to think, oh my god, you're gonna touch me instead? 197 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 1: Is that and ignorance of people. But it's crazy to 198 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: know the doctors told you not to tell because I'm 199 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: a child. Said the same thing with her pies. Her 200 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: doctors told her don't tell people, like unless it's you're 201 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: about to have sex with them. Yeah, because I'm in 202 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: a big attached to HIV. Oh absolutely well with any 203 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: sexual diseases, like people get worried for their safety as 204 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 1: far as having HIV as well. That is crazy And 205 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 1: so I guess, um, even you bringing up the fighting, 206 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,559 Speaker 1: everyone just assumes like if you touch someone who has 207 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: HIV um that you're going to contract it. And so 208 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: I don't know if you want to pull up that 209 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 1: list because I wanted to go ahead and and further 210 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 1: talk about things that listen. These are kind of myths 211 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: as far as transmission of HIV, and so we're gonna 212 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: run through them. Let me know if you've heard any 213 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: of them, and let me know maybe if you have 214 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: any specific thoughts on any of these. Touching someone you 215 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:48,679 Speaker 1: can't get it outside of the body, shaking their hand, um, tears, sweat, Um, 216 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: there's no HIV infected through things like that. And UM, 217 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:57,319 Speaker 1: this is a cool one. So mutual masturbation, so masturbating 218 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: with um. As far as fingering and hand jobs, those 219 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: are all safe from HIV. However, depend depending. Women are 220 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: internalmen are external. Yeah, because I say I've cut my 221 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: finger and I'm I'm aware of it, and I'm fingering you, okay, 222 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: and I'm not sure I have HIV and I'm fingering 223 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,959 Speaker 1: you and have to cut my finger then, because that's 224 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: an open wound, technically it can't. And it also says 225 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: that if you use sex toys, make sure to use 226 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,079 Speaker 1: a new condom on them when switching between partners. That's 227 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: something that we already know. You brought up the insects, 228 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: which kind of leads us to the animal This is 229 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: a funny one, and I think that's more so relates 230 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: to back in the day, But it says air HIV 231 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 1: cannot survive in the air, so coughing, sneezing, or spinning 232 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:46,559 Speaker 1: cannot trans transmit HIV. Yes, I can cough, sneeze. You're 233 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: not gonna get it. Have people been around you that 234 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: have been uncomfortable and have you done those things and 235 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 1: they thought, you know, maybe they would catch it? Because 236 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 1: I told one of my friends when I was like, 237 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 1: I was like eight oh and and that's like, that's 238 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 1: really yeah. I can only imagine, especially at that age, 239 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: you're just uneducated about sex at all, and back in 240 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 1: the nineties you're not far off from our age. I 241 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 1: know that the whole stigma and mindself surrounding HIV was 242 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: just like, oh my god, that's the killer. Yeah, because 243 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,959 Speaker 1: I'm told him, oh, I want to get this on 244 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: third and the whole friendship at changed after that. I 245 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: was okay, that that just tells me what my doctor 246 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,320 Speaker 1: told me is true. Don't tell nobody. And instance is 247 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: what ch child where I'm in a lunch room, Yeah, upset, 248 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: I can go out of recess and there's these kids, 249 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: my classmates were talking about as NTIV and me being 250 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,199 Speaker 1: a young kids like, I know, I can't talk about it. Wait, 251 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: why can't you go to recess? Somebody should happen. I 252 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: thought that you're really in trouble. Else second, go outside, 253 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 1: So and these kids having a full conversation but as ANTIV, like, oh, 254 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: I heard this on third and I want to educate 255 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: them because I'm mean having it and I'm okay, I'm 256 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: just I'm saying I'm crying by myself, damn. And because 257 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: you can't go outside, we're really I can't tell you 258 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,959 Speaker 1: what you're saying is wrong right right? At one thing 259 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 1: I wanted to ask um. And it's funny because I 260 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 1: just went down the list. I was going to ask 261 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,320 Speaker 1: you as far as like saliva and sharing the blood, 262 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: but I just pulled up some and that says there's 263 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: such a small amount of HIV and saliva that kissing 264 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: it can't you can't be And what's and what's crazy 265 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 1: is I read this and I'm not exactly sure if 266 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: it goes to the semen. I'm not sure is is 267 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: do you know is HIV and the semen as well? 268 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: It is? Okay, so I know blood too, but it 269 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: says that the risk of HIV from oral sex is 270 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: very small unless you were your partner have large open sores. 271 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: UM it says that there is only a slightly increased 272 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 1: risk if a woman given being given oral sex as 273 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: HIV positive. And if you I'm like thinking, if you swallow, 274 00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: because it's open wounds, it's like a blood it's a 275 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 1: blood ze. So if you're swallowing during oral sex, it's different. 276 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: That's that's what it's saying. It's very small much. That's 277 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: that's where I'm confused, because if it's if HIV is 278 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: in the semen, if you're swallow, that's what I'm saying. 279 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 1: I don't know that. That's pretty much if a female 280 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: has cutting them all, cut them off, and you chances 281 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: are low to get it. If I haven't and you're 282 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: talking me off, it's on third and you have to 283 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: cut them off, your chance is small to get it 284 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 1: unless you drink like a whole gut on my nut. 285 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 1: But see this is also saying that's what he's saying. 286 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 1: He's saying the cut because even on here it says 287 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 1: that UM, your risk is slightly increased if the woman 288 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: is menstruating, So it has to be. Is it not 289 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 1: just through blood? Yeah, pretty much. Anybody is a blood disease, right, Well, 290 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 1: the virus lives in your blood stream. I get that. However, 291 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: if we can't get it from slive, but we can't 292 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: get it from sneezing, coffee, touching all these other things. 293 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: What about semen? Yes, you can. You can't get it 294 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: from Okay, so if you're swallowing the nut, there is 295 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: a chance that you can get it just from Let 296 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: me google this because we're trying to make how much 297 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: if you have at your mouth yourself No, no, no, 298 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 1: you're fine. You're fine if you swallow seamen. That from 299 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 1: an HIV and I think it's because it goes your 300 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 1: had much of acids and end zombies and that kills 301 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 1: it off. And as soon as the h is hitting 302 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: in the air, it's a ready killed off. A good 303 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 1: it says, um, it's more transmitted through like the cut. 304 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 1: Like he's saying, um. It's saying that they've done evaluations. 305 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 1: It's very low, but it's not zero. At the risk 306 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: of acquiring it through vaginal sex and anals hot far higher. 307 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: But it's not saying why um the fluid I guess 308 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: when it's swallowed. It's just like goes through a different 309 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: way in your body pretty much, it's just body fluids 310 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 1: pretty much like Okay, um, like when you get wet 311 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: and pretty much body one per ten thousand if it's 312 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,640 Speaker 1: oral sex. Oh, so the chances of that, yeah, are 313 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: very low. It's still possible, but it's still possible. But okay, 314 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,919 Speaker 1: and then I guess one of the last um ways 315 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 1: that you can contract it that you can't really contract 316 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: it as um as highly is through tattoos and piercings. 317 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,640 Speaker 1: And I know that's a large we used to always 318 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: be scared about. You better be using a new needle. UM. 319 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 1: So it actually says here that there is only a 320 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: risk of the needle is used by the professional UM 321 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 1: that has been used on the body of an HIV 322 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: infected person and not sterilized afterwards. However, most practitioners are 323 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 1: required now to use new needles for each client. UM. 324 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 1: So I guess that there is actually kind of, you know, 325 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: a possibility. So if you guys are into tattoos, they're 326 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: getting because everything is saying, he's like, now you can 327 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:56,880 Speaker 1: get what you mean you're talking tattoo A chance it's 328 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,959 Speaker 1: always made a chance, but depending on but it's real. 329 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: If there's blood that came in contact that wasn't clean, 330 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 1: it's blood. So it's pretty much blood transmission. Is to 331 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:11,159 Speaker 1: how when you have you had an unprotected sex?

And okay, 334 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 1: we don't have to. I guess we can get into that. 335 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,879 Speaker 1: So if you guys didn't know, the horrible decision for 336 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,919 Speaker 1: this week is HIV and unfortunately this wasn't even a 337 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: decision for you.

And I want for our 342 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,439 Speaker 1: viewers to know you are a straight man? Correct? Have 343 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: you ever been with men? No? Okay, so you're a 344 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 1: straight man, only been with women? What is the conversation 345 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: that you have when dating women? As more more hard enough? 346 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 1: When I was going up, Okay, I can't tell you 347 00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: if I want to tell you because I'm romantically involved 348 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: with you, right, So it's like I would tell you, 349 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 1: but I to get to know you first, so real quick. 350 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,360 Speaker 1: You said romantically involved. So at one point you were 351 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 1: having sex with individuals before telling them. No, I always 352 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 1: had a conomal because my mom always said, we put 353 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: a rain cold on you. Like you have never used 354 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: a condom, had unprotecting self without telling someone. Okay, okay, 355 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: And what is the reaction? I guess when you become 356 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 1: that involved that you want to take it that step? 357 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: What do you tell them? I told him I have 358 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: a serious talk with them. Send you down. I'm gonna 359 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 1: tell you something. I have HIV. Even you're just telling 360 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: me that, my heart just dropped because I don't know 361 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 1: what my immediate response would be to that, if any 362 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 1: have you ever been broken up with I've been broken 363 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 1: up with um. I've been told it's so far, it's 364 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 1: all right. And I've been cheering on put much every 365 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: every normal relationship I've been through, Like I broke upbout 366 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,680 Speaker 1: you getting back with you, it's not there. I'll be 367 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 1: with you be cause you have it. So I'm gonna 368 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 1: my life and I'm saying that, wondering, okay, where you 369 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:11,160 Speaker 1: at calling? So they just disappear how like? So I'm 370 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 1: aware of prep and we'll talk about that later in 371 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: like true Veda and stuff. Are you on that or 372 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: you can't be on that because you already contracted No, 373 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: like prep Haven who had hard zero, do not have 374 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: it at all? Now, how how do people protect themselves 375 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: when you haven't unprotected sex with you? Um? Pretty much? 376 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 1: I took much it every day. The medicine helps keep 377 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: the dormant. Oh so so we're both like, be honest, 378 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: I just don't know. Medicine it helps you learning into AIDS. 379 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: I just thought it helped you live. I kind of 380 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 1: did it does I'm here to keep it dormant because 381 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,360 Speaker 1: no cure for it, right, But to keep it dormant 382 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,920 Speaker 1: means that when you're sleeping with these women, it's a 383 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 1: less likely chance they have it because you're on medicine. 384 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:01,439 Speaker 1: So that I didn't know that. I didn't know. So 385 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:06,120 Speaker 1: your medicine also keeps from transmitting it to someone else. 386 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,400 Speaker 1: So I guess so people that are like, the way 387 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: it's spreading is for people that probably have no idea 388 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:17,679 Speaker 1: they have it. Yar people who have it, they use 389 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,119 Speaker 1: condoms or whatever, and they do decide to have I'm 390 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: taking sex. It's and do they ask you these because 391 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: you just mentioned and protected, and now I can understand 392 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:29,680 Speaker 1: how someone falls in love with you and now they Okay, 393 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: so that's why magic Magic Wife doesn't have it. That's 394 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 1: fine because he takes me every single day and he 395 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: probably take the best of medicine, so I wanted to 396 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 1: So I'm just saying rich, he probably take the ones 397 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:50,439 Speaker 1: you don't even know about. Okay. So speaking of this 398 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 1: joke though, because he's so healthy and he's right, he 399 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 1: still continues to even play. He still looks athletic, he 400 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: doesn't look sick, and so I wanted to talk about 401 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 1: that too. Um, as far as where you are in 402 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: your life, and I don't want to get into your pockets, 403 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,640 Speaker 1: but economically, how are you able to afford these because 404 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 1: this is another thing that we hear often is that 405 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 1: these medications cost a lot and that normal people can't 406 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: afford them. Insurance, so your insurance actually covers them? Insurance? 407 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 1: Can can you tell us one insurance that is like 408 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 1: do you pay more than others? Because because it's pretty 409 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: existing because originally I was on medicate, I was okay, 410 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: then they dropped me. Okay, there's like a caught off 411 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 1: with that eighteen but they find out until I was 412 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: like twenty one, I like sleep out with that. Okay, 413 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: then that's when my mom had passed, so they I'll 414 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: get your all insurance. Oh wow, okay, did your mom pass? 415 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 1: And I hope this is an inappropriate question, but from no, No, 416 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: she was fine every day we took it together. Oh wow. Okay, 417 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: so like a normal thing would just me at hume. 418 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: And so with your insurance, is it freeze it's still 419 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: kind of affordable, like affinity happening, and that's a close 420 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 1: enough to medicate. Okay, so where you get the same 421 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,159 Speaker 1: benefits but not as much. So that pretty much my 422 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 1: co pay is about like me, it's about like like 423 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:22,640 Speaker 1: two dollars, that's what that. Yeah, it's really cheap. Now 424 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: what about if you don't have if you have your 425 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: short it's more hard for you get it because I'm 426 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 1: just no, I'm just thinking like people that are homeless 427 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: or that are unemployed, it's way harder to get it 428 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: if you if you even get the medicine, not even 429 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,880 Speaker 1: if you could have messin in itself, it's gonna run 430 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 1: you about like two a month pretty much. Oh okay 431 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:48,360 Speaker 1: that yeah, yeah, it depending on how mad stages are. 432 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 1: Oh so there's different medicine depending on what stage. Yes, 433 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 1: because before I was I was on a because I 434 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,199 Speaker 1: was a little I always had a little white white liquid. 435 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 1: You a white liquid they paste tasting that like that ship. 436 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:03,959 Speaker 1: Then I grew up and I said, it's a messine pills. Okay, 437 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 1: I was on I was on a combination pills like 438 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: a cocktail to call it. I was on Condaba and 439 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 1: Seesteva commabart what was the first one? And seestevao conat 440 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,239 Speaker 1: twice twice the day, when in the morning, when night, 441 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 1: I took Seva at night with the conna bear. Oh wow, okay, 442 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 1: so it's three. So at that point it was three pills. 443 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: How many pills a day are you taking on one? Oh? Because? Um, 444 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: because mess and I got so advanced where I can 445 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 1: just just take one pill, okay, technology and science Like, yes, 446 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 1: I hope this isn't a dumb question. But I feel 447 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 1: like there's no like you said, there's different stages of HIV, 448 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 1: like being that you've you've been on metaphor sin for 449 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: so long, does it ever get lower?

It's the number one 513 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 1: STD dating community, so that's probably the one you're talking about. 514 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: And then there's one that's called p O S Date 515 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: and it's dating for HIV people.

One of it says, 522 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: UM and it's a myth for any of our listeners 523 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,959 Speaker 1: who may have this. UM. It says that my partner 524 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 1: and I are both positive, so we don't need to 525 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 1: use condoms.

Regiment 533 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:31,479 Speaker 1: failure a your treatment plan into a spiral. And then 534 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: it says for more information on reinfection.

Is that because you were it's on medicine? 543 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 1: You were saying, was that and we took when she 544 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: was born? We give her mess it is messing now 545 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,959 Speaker 1: that that prevents transmission. Oh, while she was pregnant, when 546 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 1: she's born, she was born to be born for us, 547 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: we've seen the messine. Wait wait wait, wait to prevent transisicine? 548 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 1: She should because would we give like should I give 549 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 1: my kid this when I have a kid?

And so 552 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: when you met her, did she have HIV already? And 553 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 1: so that was a clear talk. Was that something that 554 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 1: you funds your childhood friends? Okay? And did she contract 555 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 1: HIV as well through birth or was that. Okay, how 556 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: old your daughter now? She's before? Okay, okay, yeah, I 557 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 1: didn't know, and they do that in case. I mean, 558 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: because I guess you're with each other every day, just 559 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: like you're talking about cousins your medicine. Now, I do 560 00:30:58,560 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 1: have a question. I don't know if you could answer 561 00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: this and try to google some of it. So, like 562 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 1: I said, a lot of my gays take PREP, which 563 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 1: I see all of the subways actually all over. And 564 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 1: it's funny because I actually went and got UM tested recently. 565 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 1: Because before you actually can, of course, even have your 566 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 1: insurance cover PREP or your medical um your medical provider 567 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 1: issue you PREP, you have to get tested to make 568 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: sure you don't have, you know, HIV first. And so 569 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 1: I went and got tested because I was considering getting 570 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: on PREP, just because when I told you, I was 571 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: trying to go to the to the sex parties, and 572 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: just because I knew I was going to enter more 573 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 1: promiscuous lifestyle, I wanted to get on it. I'm trying 574 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: to google can women take PREP? Yes, I'm a female, 575 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 1: and I went is it as effective? Because they do 576 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: not promote it? Is question, But they don't promote it 577 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: for women as much because they say that HIV is 578 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 1: a gay disease, you're not You're not as likely to 579 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: catch it. But I will say this was another reason 580 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 1: why I wanted to get onto it, because I am 581 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: open to free love. I guess if that's the case, 582 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 1: and because I have been open to guys who have 583 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: been with other guys, or I know the lifestyle of 584 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: men on the download. To me, as a female, none 585 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 1: of us are safe because there are men who who 586 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 1: are open coming out of the closet. So to me, 587 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 1: if this is a quote unquote gay virus like they 588 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 1: like they call it, I wanted to be safe knowing 589 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: that it wasn't something that bothered me if a man 590 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 1: dealt with another man. But I did read though, it's 591 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 1: just like your medication. If you go like two or 592 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 1: three days without taking it, your chances of catching it 593 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: if you're exposed to are just as just like birth control. Um. 594 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 1: And so yeah, it's it's one of those that there's 595 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 1: a ton of information that's crazy. Because I called my 596 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 1: mom and told her that I was considering getting on 597 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 1: this and she was just sucking like it is everyday peel, 598 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 1: and she was just like, why why are you getting 599 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 1: on it, and I was like, my mom trying to 600 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 1: go to these sex parties, like I'm trying to be 601 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 1: safe out here, like I don't want anything to happen 602 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: because I don't want in the back of my mind, 603 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I just dealt with a guy who 604 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 1: gave another guy hand job. Oh my god, I'm gonna 605 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 1: get you know, I'm gonna catch something. Um And so yeah, 606 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 1: as far as prep, if you guys are interested in it, 607 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: it's called p r EP. It is different than Truvilla, 608 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 1: Correcta Creveda like the same thing. Prep is a word 609 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 1: for um the medicine used. It's like calling something birth 610 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,680 Speaker 1: control prep preparation for like STDs and Treveda is. One 611 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 1: of the brands actually went to a gay club and 612 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: heals catching my mom and the guy was telling a joke. 613 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 1: He said, it's a prep rally in here.

So it's saying that's 619 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: good for trans women, women and men um and apparently 620 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: we're the same. Um it said they compared it with 621 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 1: the press place eb oh, which is a fake pill. 622 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah, and um yeah it caused reduction and 623 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 1: infections by prep cut infections by the other Sorry, the 624 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 1: placebo was seventy five so it really doesn't work. Okay, yeah, 625 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,319 Speaker 1: it's um So, it's one of those that, of course, 626 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 1: the more you're consistent with taking your pill at the 627 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 1: same time everyday type of thing, it's like definitely a 628 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: super high chance of it's not the best option because 629 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 1: absolutely before it's before yet um wow.

So there's pretty comb there's like 824 00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 1: so like is that is pulling out like the way 825 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,239 Speaker 1: to like not? Well, we just said, come, I mean 826 00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:35,440 Speaker 1: sperm doesn't really affect it, like you can't contract it 827 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:39,880 Speaker 1: through sperm. There's an opening. No, we just had this 828 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:42,920 Speaker 1: whole conversation, did we not? Because you picked up your 829 00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:46,960 Speaker 1: phone so fast. We just had this whole conversation in 830 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:50,640 Speaker 1: the beginning about about sperm not being the transmission because 831 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:53,920 Speaker 1: it goes through a different opening. That's when you swallow. Oh, 832 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:57,400 Speaker 1: but when you come inside the vaginantess is ridiculous. For 833 00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:59,080 Speaker 1: an hour, we don't know how you get it. How 834 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:03,920 Speaker 1: do you get HIV during intercourse? Well, there we go. 835 00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 1: You know that's what you're saying. Yeah, because if you're 836 00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:09,960 Speaker 1: not getting it through swallowing, that's because it's going through 837 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:15,560 Speaker 1: your stomach. I'm pretty sure I mentioned this earlier. He's 838 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:21,279 Speaker 1: not listening, you know what she's confused at We're all 839 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:24,160 Speaker 1: talking about oral sex. Oral sex, right, this is different. 840 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:28,040 Speaker 1: So like swallowing, it is different from it going vaginally. 841 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:31,680 Speaker 1: You're at a higher risk of its vaginal and and 842 00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:35,880 Speaker 1: even higher if it's anal Yeah okay, but that's because 843 00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 1: during anal sex there's a lot of tearing. Uh. Look 844 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:46,640 Speaker 1: like speaking of that the other night, right, I was 845 00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:48,120 Speaker 1: so scared to like, I'm trying to have more and 846 00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 1: more anal sex, and like the second I went to 847 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 1: the bathroom, I was just like, how is that? I 848 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,880 Speaker 1: didn't like, it didn't hurt, but it's almost like you 849 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:59,600 Speaker 1: can't feel now that should be tearing it comes off 850 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,839 Speaker 1: and and because I didn't and so sex but how 851 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 1: long have you been with her?

And it's gonna be brief 857 00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:38,880 Speaker 1: because we're running out of time. But UM, the homemail 858 00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:40,839 Speaker 1: for this episode, if you know you listen to the show, 859 00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 1: we do homemail for this show.

And so the last episode you 861 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:51,279 Speaker 1: guys listened to with our Femdom Lisa Spliffson, UM, we 862 00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 1: had a homemail from a listener who was having an 863 00:47:55,280 --> 00:48:02,279 Speaker 1: issue UM with his partner being sexually confident. She had 864 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,160 Speaker 1: gained weight, and so I just wanted to give a 865 00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:07,360 Speaker 1: quick update to our listeners. It says that she's lost 866 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:09,960 Speaker 1: weight and is doing great um, and is doing great 867 00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:13,480 Speaker 1: things for her health. Now. Unfortunately nothing has changed sexually. 868 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:15,800 Speaker 1: So I'm starting to starting to see that it is 869 00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:18,560 Speaker 1: more of a self esteem issue. UM, do you have 870 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:22,040 Speaker 1: any Do you have any tips on helping someone through insecurities? 871 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:26,200 Speaker 1: We were both into everything the threesomes, toys, piss and bondage, 872 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:28,759 Speaker 1: but now she is too worried and lazy to enjoy 873 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:32,840 Speaker 1: those things. Thanks again, Anonymous. He's using the word lazy, 874 00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:35,560 Speaker 1: and that's why I'm like, I don't know if it's 875 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:39,760 Speaker 1: maybe she's just not writing, is what I think. Everything 876 00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 1: is fun in Dandy in the beginning. I had a 877 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,120 Speaker 1: ship fit this morning when we didn't have sex.

I think also that some 883 00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:01,600 Speaker 1: people just have different sex drives, and so he may 884 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:03,600 Speaker 1: feel like she doesn't want to have sex, but she 885 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 1: just may not want to have sex.

Before when we first moved it together, 912 00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 1: it was probably like three or four times a week. 913 00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:48,960 Speaker 1: And then as the years he has gone on, then yes, 914 00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:51,880 Speaker 1: things work in stress and bills and things like that happened, 915 00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,720 Speaker 1: So it probably goes out to like once or twice 916 00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:58,080 Speaker 1: a week. But is that because you you too, or 917 00:50:58,239 --> 00:51:01,160 Speaker 1: because people blame a lot of the woman.
