Monkeypox virus - new virus

[Queen Mera]

I have to admit I'm a pretty opened minded person but I was reading people stories of monkeypox the amount of sexually partners they've unabashedly talked about having in days(ie 10 sexual partners, another said 40 sexual partners) was a bit jarring.

No, it’s mostly the responsibility of the person who is in a committed relationship. But if you knowingly have sex with somebody who is cheating, you are at least partly responsible because you are enabling their behavior. It is immoral and unethical to have sex with somebody knowing they are cheating on their significant other.

I disagree with you. It’s totally the responsibility of the person who you say is cheating. I don’t ask my clients to sign an agreement to swear that they aren’t in a committed relationship. The seller of a knife doesn’t ask their customers to promise they won’t use it to stab someone. It’s the responsibility of the client every time. There’s no dividing up of responsibility because that means the individual has no free will, when they clearly do.
It’s like people who are overweight blaming fast food shops or alcoholics blaming the drinks industry. When they stop blaming someone else they are able to recover.

Just read this post/opinion over on DL thread about monkeypox. I guess there are a whole host of opinions on the topic and they run the gamut.

“Yea this homophobia has to stop. I’m a bottom and taking loads is simply part of who I am. I have a biological need for pole in my filth trench, a hunger for male seed to knock me up and make me pregnant. I’m poz. I’ve had virtually every STD multiple times. It won’t kill me and it’s not anyone else’s business. Life is a banquet. Ignore the jealous queens. Take raw loads every day. It’s our privilege as gay men.”

This person needs psychological help ASAP and they’re a danger to the community. STDs are not only on the rise, but they’re becoming antibiotic resistant, meaning someday in the not so distant future they might be untreatable and able to kill us.

I just got my first shot this week. Next shot in 28 days, then have to wait two more weeks. Guys are in all sorts of different life/sex situations. I made a personal decision to stop having sex until I was fully vaxed. I feel for the younger guys - first COVID, now this. It's rough not to be able to celebrate sexuality. But safety first.

I would like to thank the owners of this site and all the porn I look out on the net. It really has helped so much during COVID and now with MP. It's the safest way for us to navigate some semblance of sexuality during these trying times.

Stay safe sexy men!

Here in the UK we are getting only a dose for the time being. I have read that you are supposed to reach a fairly good level of protection 3 to 4 weeks after first dose. I feel defeated: been super careful throughout the covid years and i had just started again to enjoy sex when MP started. I think i ll take a risk, wait 4 weeks and then sod it...

It is very frustrating and if the vaccines don't come quickly, the answer is not abstinence for all. It's got to be harm reduction.

I would encourage everyone out there who is currently or wants to be sexually active in the near future (and is not in a monogamous relationship) to seek out a sex positive, LGBTQ positive health care professional and get good sound advice. I've been very fortunate to have had great gay and gay friendly docs my entire adult life. But I also had to seek them out.

Again, stay safe sexy men.

Men, no matter their sexuality, always use this as an excuse to sleep around, as if humans aren’t also capable of self control. Besides, gay men aren’t getting anyone pregnant, so that makes the “spread our seed far and wide” excuse even more lame.

Its not about getting people pregnant though. It's the biological urge to 'spread the seed', which is absolutely a thing.

Yes there is a thing called self control, and some are better than others.

I don't think we should pretend that men are not more hardwired to be more sexually active.
