Meaning what?
Get a potential sex partner to have a HIV test before you even meet them? A one night stand? And yourself?

GF/BF what ever and though while a problem not just here but many countries may teach many to keep their willy in their pants and consider long term ramifications of a lustful night. Easy to do.
Ben and I were chatting for 6 months before we met and both agreed to HIV blood tests from home countries and compared notes when we met,,,,,,,, that was 14 years ago, we are both still alive and living the old married couple syndrome.
You want rampant sex with different partners you are asking for trouble as well as meaningless sex with a partner that you may never see again,,,,,,, just to dip your wick? Potentially HIV/Gonorrhea/syphilus/herpes, crabs etc. etc.
Slowly Slowly.

OMO.

We lost a brother in law 2 months ago to AIDS complicated pneumonia/covid.
It is real and so sad.
He hid it from everyone, even his wife, she only found out after Dr pulled her aside on his deathbed. :(
Sis in-law is safe so far, one more test this month to go.
We pray she does not pay the price for his shame.

Being from Canada I have never even met or known anyone with HIV, and now this was a HUGE shocker to get a reality check here in Cebu.

If you look at the stats, it shows a massive Male and younger people surge. so so sad

Like I say about much here in Philippines, it is 30 years behind... just like AIDS surging through US/Canada
Be safe people! <3
 
Whilst it has a "problems" its by and large mainly restricted to the gay community. Of course those who are bi, can affect those of us who enjoy hetro fun.

And sorry, to have a diametrically opposite view BigPearl, but I enjoy and have enjoyed a great deal of sex with quite a variety of ladies here and in 30 years of doing so, had a case of gonnorhea just the once , from a gal who had been living with a Saudi airlines captain previously. Then again , my selection process isnt to point and shoot at anyone and everyone.
 
Interesting thoughts freebie and like noses we all have those.
Perhaps you should look at the origins of HIV/AIDS? It was a viral jump (blood) from chimpanzees to a human with the first medically diagnosed case from a man from the Belgian Congo in 1959 so probably contracted in the early 1950's by whom we have no idea either male or female and believed to be from the butchering and consumption of chimpanzees by locals and slowly spread and became rampant in the late 70's and 80's,,,,,, no need to bore you with any more.

My advice for sex with random partners both male and female, straight/Bi/gay is to simply wear a raincoat. Worked for me as I'm still typing. If you do get serious with a partner then STD and HIV tests from both parties and you can do away with the umbrellas and really get into it.

OMO.

Cheers, Steve.
