Sim City. My first foray, into Sims 2 was quickly met with dissatisfaction when my Sim couldn't figure out how to use the toilet >.> Then something probably caught fire and I'd had it. Officially.
But Sim City is fun when it's not trying to throw DLCs at me :3
Who's the artist of the bottom two? They're gorgeous! :love:
I've been enjoying Throat It Boy of www.throat-it-boy.com. Not all my thing, but good. I know that one of the tops from some throaty thing is doing some Sketchy Sex work, and he's mean.
Love it something severe. Max, Katya, and Pearl because she's cute.
Actually, at this day and age, HIV is the least of your worries. I'll bet you didn't know that more recent studies that attempted to quantify risk factors among gay men have all noted that there has been not a single case of HIV transmission from a person who is HIV+ with an undetectable viral load. The fact remains that most people with HIV (although not all) within North America at least are all on HIV meds and maintain such an undetectable viral load. Simply put, it's a lot harder at this day and age to catch it than you might think.
Omfg.
Our analyses suggest that the risk of HIV transmission in heterosexual partnerships in the presence of effective treatment is low but non-zero and that the transmission risk in male homosexual partnerships is high over repeated exposures. If the claim of non-infectiousness in effectively treated patients was widely accepted, and condom use subsequently declined, then there is the potential for substantial increases in HIV incidence.

Conclusions: Most serodiscordant gay couples do not engage in any Unprotected Anal Intercourse (UAI). UAI within such relationships is significantly more likely to occur where the HIV-positive partner is reported to have undetectable viral load. UAI in HIV serodiscordant relationships is problematic even if viral load is undetectable because of unknown risk parameters, viral load variability and the possibility of drug-resistant strains of HIV.
Guys, you can never be sure but if you are and you are tested negative, why not try it. :cheesy2:
You can never be sure, but if you are (sure)…
That statement contradicts itself.
and you are tested negative, why not try it. :cheesy2:
WINDOW PERIOD.
More recent study results that were recently published seem to indicate that there's another key to take into account. That key is the person's viral load. It is actually noted that if the person is on HIV meds and has an undetectable viral load that there has not been so much as one confirmed case of transmission, even with unprotected sex. Long story made short, there's more to take into account when assessing your risk factor than it would seem on the surface.
Bull (dramatic pause) shit. There are PLENTY of confirmed cases of transmission with unprotected sex amongst people with undetectable viral loads thanks to suppressive therapy. There is a lower risk of transmission with a lower viral load, that does not go close to meaning that there is a zero percent risk of transmission with an undetectable load, especially regarding unsafe sex.

TL;DR: Pissing inside the rectum or swallowing urine is not a safe sex practice.
Piss is sterile coming out of the body. However, virii can pass from blood to urine.
Urine is not sterile. HIV antibodies are detectable in urine and it is entirely probable the HIV is trasmissible by urine - admittedly lower risk than by blood-blood exposure, but still unsafe.
with a suppressed viral load, the only place in which to really find the virus within the human body is within the bone marrow. This is why there are a few bizarre and odd-ball cases where claims have been made that HIV treatment medications have been able to remove the virus from the system if administered early enough. Sadly though, there aren't exactly many people jumping at the chance to experiment with this alleged cure theory for obvious ethical reasons.
In the majority of these cases the virus reemerged and the "cured" peoples' viral loads went back up. And there are very, very, very few cases (single digits) of this cure even having support. Experimental treatments are not uncommon, they're just often unsuccessful and unheard of as a result.
If someone tests negative for HIV, good chance they're clean.
annoying buzzer sound
No. The window period of HIV is well established and 5% of positive people will still test negative after 3 months of being infected. With new testing methods we've reduced this to about 6 weeks. That means you can spend 6 weeks positive and infectious without showing up as positive on a test. HIV tests tell you that 3 months ago, you definitely (read: most probably) didn't have the virus. They do not tell you about the present moment, and as soon as you have sex after that day three months before the test, the test becomes irrelevant anyway.
Remember, HIV can take 3 months before detection using older systems. Modern tests can get an accurate reading within 24-48 hours after contact.
Modern tests give you a RESULT in 20 minutes. They do not indicate that 48 hours ago you were virus free.
The facts have changed dramatically; gays have the lowest percentage of the population who are infected. This number continues to decrease.
Actually, this statement is a little misleading. As far back as 2003, the number of heterosexual women with HIV on a GLOBAL scale exceeded that of gay men. That being said however, within North America, the proportions are actually quite different than looking at stats as a whole on a global scale. According to the CDC, within North America, the number of gay men infected with HIV is still substantially higher than that of any other group.
What Mazda said. Globally, 70% of HIV positive people are heterosexual. In developed countries, men who have sex with men still have the highest seropositivity index and often the highest rates of transmission, but not always the highest rate of increase of rate of transmission (the integral).
ITT: Anecdotal evidence. Oral sex is a low-risk transmission probablity for HIV. Anal sex, even non-ejaculate, is considered high risk. Now, if you've ever had an exposure risk and you've gone through the probabilities with your doctor, they'd seem like small numbers - but in large populations they're not, and the possibility of infection is high. There's a reason millions of dollars are spent on telling people to use condoms.
Pre-seminal fluid can contain HIV which is why pulling out has never been advised as a good practice. If you had a womb and the morning after pill was only about 60% effective, abortions unavailable and babies incurable, would you have sex without condoms and pull out on the basis that pre-seminal fluid is less likely to contain an infectious viral load?
No sex is 100% safe, you're absolutely correct - but that doesn't mean it's at all advisable to take a fatalist approach and suggest that just because you can't be 100% safe, it's not worth being as close to it as possible. It is absolutely worth putting effort into safer sex practices. Use condoms, serosort, or talk to your sexual health GP.
As above. Aerobics i.e. you'll be breathing a lot, that raise your heart rate, get you sweaty and expend energy. Find the one that you're motivated to keep doing and the context that works for you. I run with a local group, for example.
If you're committed to losing weight though, the simple fact is that your energy out must be greater than energy in for your body to start burning the reserves. Eat healthy foods in healthy proportions. Avoid highly sugary things especially. It can be a big change so you can do it gradually but commit to a reasonable, achieveable but meaningful goal and make yourself get there.
Both are so good. The first was good for its time, and the second really came around with the AAA standard. I heard a lot of complaints from people, but I loved it. It wasn't quite the cult classic that Portal 1 was, but it's one heck of a game with more than enough mystery. I haven't really got into the coop because I don't have people to play with 
Three simple points around which I will offer advice:
Don't panic
Give yourself time
Do what makes you happy
Don't freak out. When I first realised I was gay, I minimised it as much as I could. I explained to myself that I wasn't attracted to abs, I just found them interesting because I wanted to have them myself. Eventually I admitted I was bicurious, bisexual and so on until I conceded I was gay (not to suggest people can't be bicurious or bisexual). Give yourself time to figure yourself out. You're very young and you have time to think about how you find yourself attracted to people. Don't rush yourself into commitments or decisions you're not sure about. Do what makes you happy, i.e. don't try to change yourself because society tells you to; be attracted to the people you're attracted to and don't force yourself to try and be something you're not - it will not end well.
The gay community is extremely diverse and just because you like men doesn't mean anything else about your character. It doesn't mean you're weak, it doesn't mean you're feminine. It doesn't mean anything else about how you should live your life (although learning about safe sex is important at your age; get reading).
You can lead a life being in the closet and discrete, but usually it means you can't talk about your romances or sexual experiences with many others. You can get friends from Grindr too, and they might be able to help you out with that part. When I came out, I was nervous, so I came out to my closest friends, then my wider friends, then my parents. I did this so I always had something to fall back on and I knew before I took the next step the people I trusted were okay with me.
You'll be okay, and you'll look back on this as if it weren't a big deal. Hopefully soon it never will be a big deal for anyone.
Joining in on a sexy, sexy gravedig. It's a nice dick indeed.
Totally bare with a good bounce to it is my favourite, but nearly impossible to maintain - so I'll be happy with neatly trimmed. Anything else means nothing other than my dick is going near it, and if it looks more like the whomping willow's growing out of it I may have bigger issues.
It's all personal preference though so each to their own :hug2:
You guys should consider consulting a doctor about the dark spots that may have been caused by bruising, they may have something for the subdermal stuff. As for the dark buttho' I think anal bleaching is a thing? I dunno, I've heard of it, but I've never heard from friends or anything.
Personally I like trimmed hair on the front side and none at all on the undercarriage and backside. Other bodily hair to suit the look, but give me a hairless twink and I'm happy :cheers:
I don't recommend shaving the front side usually because it's a little tricky and can be hard to make look good.
I do recommend trimming the front because mine just goes crazy and had I left it, would now be an afro in the front of my pants. Things were getting caught in it. O0 If your existing hair is neat / flat, it may not have an issue.
At the end of the day, it's your body, do what you wish! (But keep in mind others have their preferences too)
I've been thinking about trying Nair (hair removal cream) but hesitant because I couldn't find a cost-effective version of a reasonable volume.
Ipertatos, do you mean an epilator? Because I swear I've seen those things and I feel like I'd rather die before use one.
I quite liked Ricky at Maskurbate's "Sexy Chef" scene. He's a hotty. At the same time, the scene used to make me feel sick too, so that's weird.
+1 to the above level system. Works well for how badly you need to hide your porn. Remember kids, your ISP and any logging service on your router or between you and the porn know about it unless you use a VPN with the liquidation level. And they can be expensive. That and being on here and hitting sharing ratios probably means you can't liquidate always.
I also used TrueCrypt to encrypt a harddrive. I wasn't using a harddrive health monitor like Acronis. It crashed. Recovering a crashed encrypted HDD with no master file table is HARD.
I recommend finding out what works best for you based on protection, performance or ease of use based on AV-Test results. They're an independent company that test products regularly, and test the free versions against the paid versions too.
So, find a good AV: http://www.av-test.org/en/home/?avtest[type]=3
