I am a Bi male, 45 and have been dating men for about 10 years. Have had anonymous sex much longer than that. I live in France. I have had about 5 real gay relationships and all five guys have ended up HIV+. I am HIV neg. I'm so worried and saddened because I feel that if I get back into a gay relationship one of us will end of positive. Guys fool around in general but in gay life so much seems centered around anonymous sex until I no longer have confidence in gay men. Even if one guy is not promiscuous chances are the other is screwing around on the sly. I myself fool around so I'm no exception to the rule except the fact I've been lucky and perhaps because I really only enjoy oral sex and have not had unprotected receptive anal in many years. I try not to generalize but when 100 percent of the guys, young guys in their 20s/30s that I have had relationships with have become HIV+ , plus all the very young, handsome boys I see out here who I also know are positive I become very disillusioned about our ability to defeat this disease. Disillusioned about my desire to be with another guy. I don't want to condemn anyone and certainly I know it could be me if I'm not careful but it makes me so damn angry that so many many many gay and bi men are infected. Shit!!!

Your story is so disillusional, but I believe it must be true, because you said "that you f...ked around too". I
You are a BISEXUAL man...maybe you could get involved with some woman??????????????????????? You do not mention woman as a source of sex, love...whatever.\
ARE YOU BI-SEXUALLY
I ask, because it is such a confusing thing...I used to think that men just hide behind the word; but, then I've met some true bi-sexuals that have had satisfying relations with both woman and men.
c' la gaer

Brian, thanks for your response. I don't think I mean to be such a pessimist but in fact I try to be a realist. Especially about our weaknesses and the risks we (gay/bi) men take in the name of fun. I don't assume women to be any stronger than men or their sexual appetites any lighter...just different. I am a true Bi-guy. I find it hard, or mentally impossible to commit to any one side of the fence because I enjoy many things about both sexes. But when the men that I love/loved have all become pos it pisses me off cause being Bi I know I can't just seek refuge with a women for safety sakes. I know I will venture back to men and therefore will be confronted with the threat of this disease that has hit this "community" hard.

Mon cher Victor... I am a woman....and i think some of your thoughts about gay or bi men are a little too persimistic. Do you think you stand less chances of getting hiv from a woman than a man? HIV is not an infection of MSM!! There are some promiscouse women out there too. The guy who infected me is hetero....so he must have had it from a woman! Guys in heterosexual relationships stand high chances of getting infected...and believe me, some women do mess around a lot!
The thing to do is take care of yourself and avaoid risky sexual behaviour (with men as well as with womwn)! I do feel sad that the men you come across end up positive. But they need you even when they are positive, n'est pas?
Aurevoir!
