When I logged off tonight, I saw this on the log-in page, and I had to check it out:

pozguys.tribe.net/thread/7a...4e5cbbe727

This *really* freaks me out!

I've never had sex with men, but I'm sure I've had sex with women who have had sex with men who had sex with HIV pos guys...

I've largely gone by my intuition and good-faith in terms of who I have sex with. I've tested for HIV & other STDS every 6-12 months, largely because of stories like this. I never tested HIV positive, but this story makes me wonder if I could be carrying it around nonetheless despite the care I've taken -and infecting others while I carry the faith in my test results.

I've seen studies that show even "safe" sex -ie. using a condom *and using it properly*- is still not 100% safe.

(sigh) what to do??
