ThisOneWorks 4707 Report post Posted November 1, 2014 One important point of the story: "most cases are reported as men having sex with men". Even though some of that might be on this site, certainly not a lot of it. Not saying due diligence is not required, but depending on which way you swing, the odds may still be in your favour. Might just mean a couple of extra questions from both sides of a "transaction". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Might just mean a couple of extra questions from both sides of a "transaction". The reminder is also for those who partake in bbbjs. The one thing gay guys in this category and sps have in common is the possibility of multiple partners, and unprotected oral sex. Unprotected oral sex is becoming one of the biggest known activities that is resulting in the spread of stds. Keeping in mind that the gay community was amongst the first to be reporting HIV/Aids, not sure that people who are not gay can continue to think that they are not at risk. :) Also, Winnipeg is not the only major Canadian city to be reporting this increase. Every major Canadian city from BC to PEI has had a similar story in the past 2 years. This is a growing trend across this country, it is certainly a growing trend in others as well. 2010 saw a big story about syphilis in China, for examples, as married men took it home from sps, and children were being born with syphillis. It is also increases the risk of contracting HIV, if you have syphillis you have a higher risk of infection. http://cid.oxfordjournals.org/content/44/9/1222.long http://www.biomedcentral.com/1741-7015/9/111 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
