Young Folks with the eternal monkey on their back

OK, so I'm seeing a rise in very young people, especially males, with HIV. What the fuck is really going on? If you're 18, just out of high school or perhaps still in high school in your senior year, what the hell are you doing with such a permanent disease? What the hell are you doing that you get caught with this?

Living the lifestyle I live, I understand I'm at a higher risk and perhaps its the fact that i'm well over a decade and a half into this sex and relationships thing that makes me so cautious. Or maybe it's the fact that I just fucking love myself. My body is sacred to me. While I may be active, I'm careful about it. I don't do the raw dog thing, especially not with someone I don't know. When I talk to these young ones, it's always a similar story. They met an older guy and let him talk them into raw sex. What's worse, in the case of an ex of mine, he knew these people had HIV and still let them go raw.

Pause. Bitch, what the fuck is wrong with you? Now, I'm not saying discriminate against HIV+ people or automatically turn them away. They're human, and many catch this by accident. I'd say most don't intend to end up with it. But why the blue fuck would you not protect yourself when having sex with them. Did you just want a slow death or something? And considering most of these young ones do not have any form of health insurance if they're not still on their parents' insurance, it is highly unlikely that they're able to take their meds. In the case of my ex, this jackass is 28 and can't really keep a job. I know full fucking well he's not able to afford his. We all know what HIV turns into. And I know how he came to be infected. He had at least three scares while we were friends, and each time, it was for the same reason. He got really into some guy he didn't know nearly well enough but knew they had HIV but decided it was ok to ride that dick raw. So finally he got it and I can't help but feel like he wanted to catch it.

What kind of fuckery is that? If you want to die, do it the old fashioned way. But don't give yourself a slow death moron. That's just torture for anyone that still gives a crap if you live or die. In his case, I don't give two flying fucks anymore because karma's a bitch to those that put bitchassness out there. But it's really sad to see all these teenagers with it when life is just starting. And they're young so they don't realize that the person infecting them, the ones that don't tell them what they have can technically be charged with attempted murder. Something should really be done about this sudden rise among younger men though.
