Single course of antibiotics may cause irreversible damage to crucial gut bacteria

By | 23rd March 2019

There’s yet another reason to always use a condom so you avoid sexually transmitted infections as much as possible. The Telegraph reports that even a single course of antibiotics “can damage the healthy bacteria in the gut for at least a year and possibly permanently.” For a long time it has been known that antibiotics… Read More »

Testing won’t save you from HIV or STI infection. A condom will

By | 3rd March 2019

If you read the countless tweets and articles produced by the gay (ill)health sector you would be forgiven for thinking that HIV and STIs can be avoided, or driven down, by testing for them every 3 months or so. Syphilis and gonorrhea are at epidemic levels, last seen in the 1940s before antibiotics were discovered… Read More »

Hepatitis C and why HIV+ gay men should be using condoms

By | 27th January 2019

When was the last time you heard someone in the gay (ill)health sector explicitly advising HIV+ men that they should use condoms? Quite possibly never. Nearly all HIV+ gay men contracted the virus because they didn’t use a condom. And what is rarely mentioned is that, after their diagnosis, a large percentage of them seem… Read More »

The PrEP Impact Trial – what the news and PrEPsters aren’t telling you

By | 24th January 2019

Reading the news and Tweets from fanatical PrEPsters you might think that the NHS PrEP Impact Trial is a great success. That we’re well on the way to “ending HIV” as they like to claim.

A post condom world, where HIV is destigmatised and condomless sex is “defetishised” and seen as a sign of liberation for the gay community? You are no longer a “bad gay”.

In fact condoms aren’t mentioned once in the video (agenda revealed). But no surprise there, as its from the website Prepster. Using PrEP… Read More »

PrEP promoters & their hatred of “inhibitions” are a danger to us all

By | 5th November 2018

Some of the people who work in gay “health” and who are the loudest advocates for PrEP seem a little bit weird. Perhaps you’ve sensed that too? They’re keen that no one should be “judged” or “stigmatised” and one wonders whether that stems from reactions they’ve had over the years personally. Not just because some… Read More »

Why condoms are a safer choice than ever & the simple act of avoiding barebackers keeps you healthy & sane

By | 4th November 2018

As part of the desperation to drive forward PrEP and the barebacking that goes along with it, condoms have sometimes been demonised in the most wicked and false way. In fact, if you insist on using a condom, and always do, you’re probably at the safest level gay condom users have been at for 35… Read More »
