[boysmile]

[3stripes]

Why do people still even ask the question?

I will never understand why people like barebacking and shallowing cum. IT'S NOT SAFE!!!! Even though it kinda hot, but I couldn't do it even if I was partnered with a guy for years, cause you never know. Guys lie so much it doesn't matter if they are Gay or Straight they lie, cheat, and can give you anything. A lot of guys are dogs, don't trust what a guy says cause u can in up in a worst nightmare.

 

[boysmile]

yes,everyone knows BB is not safe. But I just wanna know more details.u know,many people actually think its safe for top guy cos they know that bottoms can got HIV via the sperms shot in his ass,but for top guys,how? they just shoot out something, but nothing get in.at least couple guys I know think so and they don't wear condoms when they fuck but they do when they get fucked,and some other guys permit top ones fuck them without condom but don't let them cum inside,they think that could be safe,actually I disagree with this,but I just don't know why ,so I asked this question and wanna know more. thanks for reply.

Tops may have LESS risk than Bottoms.

But that is definitely not no risk.

Its like comparing a head on smash at 40mph (top) to 60mph (bottom). More bottoms will die than tops, but why would you want to take the risk that you'll walk away?

Let's attribute it to the piss-poor sexual health content taught in schools. If we don't talk about it, maybe it won't happen? Yeah, that's it.

If you are a top, you can get viruses in through the end of your penis, where it can cross over the membrane of the lining of the urethra and get into the bloodstream. So being a top is not safe.

On the other hand, it should be pointed out that even wearing a condom is not 100 percent safe, although safer than no condom at all.

YOU KNOW...I cant even believe people still ask this question....I just dont understand it perplexes me...it makes me angry....it makes me sad...it gives those idiots out there the fuel to say..."look those fags all have AIDS."

My cousin, who is supposed to be older and wiser than me....he got a girl pregnant. When we asked him why he didnt use a condom, he said...now remember hes ten years older than me...he said, "cos it doesnt feel natrual."

WEAR A CONDOM UNLESS YOU TWO ARE SURE THAT YOU GUYS ARE CLEAN AND FUCKING NO ONE ELSE. and even then, you could get infections from the left over bits and bacteria in that holiest of holes.

First, being a top can be just as risky as being a bottom when it comes to HIV infection. It isn't so much the sperm that is shot into the anal area as it is the opportunity for fluids to get from one person to the other. A cut on the penis, an abrasion from masturbating, even into the interior of the penis can allow fluids, including blood, to be exhanged.

The bottom doesn't have to have semen shot into him; if he has a tear in the interior anal area or even from entry into the anal area could allow fluids from the top such as pre-cum or blood to be exchanged.

It is not just HIV; herpes, genital warts, chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphillis -- all can be exchanged to the top or bottom. Some guys do not show discharge that is normal with gonnerhea from the penis; instead they have it in the interior of the anal area and putting an unprotected penis into that area will result in the unwanted spread of the virus.

Granted some of the latter can be cured with shots; HIV, herpes, genital warts and the like are not.

Cover the stump before you hump....it's a habit to get into.

Guys, I'm a CNA, NREMT, Medic, and Nurse.

I'll spare you the pathophysiology behind the transmission of many STD's that can be had by a person in either position, but rest assured, NO sex is safe sex. Sex with a condom though, is your best best right now. Without the 'rubber', it's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when. Plain and simple.

If you don't believe me and want to find out for yourself then I urge you to take some classes. Finding out the other way may just kill you and anyone else you have sexual contact with before you realize you've been infected.

 

[Jerry]

By the way, a person can have the HIV virus (and spread it to others) for 10-14 years before they even know they have it.

Just something to think about.

Stop yelling at the poor guy... he legitimately didn't know and asked a question. Better him asking than just going off and assuming.

Ya know... I'm willing to do whatever it takes to stop people from making big-ass life-altering stupid mistakes.

If it takes yelling, jumping up and down, standing on my head, cartwheels... whatever... I'm there. It's worth it.

Yeh, but people were yelling at him for ignorance, which does no one any good and only hurts feelings. If someone is ignorant, they need to be informed, not hollered at. Too many it may seem like a question which has been asked to death, but to him it does not, and he deserves a valid courteous answer since he asked a valid question in a courteous manner.




Anyway, yeh, STI's as well as other infectious diseases can be absorbed through any mucous membranes (which are located on the glans-- or head-- of your penis. So yeh, you're still at risk if you top, but still less since (ideally) you shouldn't be receiving any of his bodily fluids, but it's possible-- especially if he has an STI, which could cause discharge.

At least I think that's right, if anyone needs to correct/complete that please do go ahead.

The only thing that's 100% safe is not having sex at all, like me

One thing I've learned is that I'm glad people ask questions. When I was coming out, I had dozens of them and was glad for the advice I received. I also thought being a top was safe; I certainly couldn't get any guy (or girl) pregnant because I'd had my tubes tied! Ha..ha..!

The only dumb question is the one not asked. I still remember when my step-son came to live with us and was about 13. I got around to giving him "the talk" when he was about 14 and I thought he had been making out with his girlfriend (his mom thinks he is a virgin to this day....wow!)

I still remember him saying that while he had had sex, he didn't wear a condom because, "it was both of our first times and you can't get pregnant on the first time!" I was shocked and then wondered how many of his classmates and friends were thinking the same thing...it might explain so many teen births!

For me, having someone on this site tell me in a PM that the difference in having sex when I came out a few years ago and when I was having sex before I got married is that in "the old days" one had to worry about the clab, syphillis, or getting the girl pregnant (or guy...well everything but pregnant!) Today there is one added little twist and that is the HIV which isn't cured by a shot but instead can kill you! That message has stuck with me....

If you ever do decide to bareback with a boyfriend there are two rules of thumb:

1. Know the individual and know that he and you will not "fool around" with anyone else. That is a big trust factor and one that you are staking your life on.

2. Get tested before you are going to bareback...use the blood test method and go at least twice with three months in between. Either of you may have been exposed too soon to register on the first but will show on a second if you can do what is written under #1 above.....

If you can't...then wrap it before you pack it!

Well stated, wiz.

Isn't there anal warts?

then the top would get infected..
