Excerpt:
Alan Wardle, Head of Health Promotion for Terrence Higgins Trust said, "We know that for some men in a relationship, condoms can be one of the first things to go. Why do you need them if you’re in a relationship? Yet the fact is, if you’ve not talked to your partner about their sexual history and yours before you ditch the condoms, you could be at risk. We know that some men may find it difficult to discuss their sex life with their partner, but if you don’t talk about it how will you know?"Read the whole thing.
My partner and I have been in a monogamous relationship for the past year. When we first started dating we sought sexual pleasure through masturbation therefore condoms were not needed. We begin having oral sex 3 months into our relationship and at this time we were committed to using condoms. After about 6 or 7 months into our relationship we begin having intercourse on a regular basis without the use of condoms. Just two days ago we had the condom talk and we both agreed that we should be using condoms. I trust him he trusts me and we are committed to one another. FYI --- We are both HIV Positive men and we both adhere properly to our HIV regimen. We also go to our normally scheduled doctor visits. Tell me what are you thoughts pertaining to a couple that are HIV positive that do not practice safe sex-
