If HIV/AIDS Were Cured.....

....and you were unmarried/uncommitted, would you do away with the condoms and start having unprotected sex?

Nope. If I were having sex with a person for the first time I would still use condoms. There are other diseases out there you can catch besides HIV.

And just because something can be cured doesn't mean I want to catch it in the first place.

Altho I have to admit even now I sometimes get carried away and do foolish stuff. Also, I do oral and rimming without condoms.

I probably wouldn't be quite as superstitious, but I wouldn't totally do away with them either.

BUT if all VD vanished from the face of the earth...

HAHAHAHHAHA!!!! I'm with you!

There is some proof that HIV is supposed connected somehow to the black death... and survivors of the plague passed down certain genes down. There is a billionaire who was extremely sexually active, and many of his friends/lovers died in the 80s from AIDS. He has had his blood tested repeatedly, and they even tried to infect him. His blood actually devours the virus somehow. He has spent millions of dollar trying to use his blood, and others like him for a cure. He traced his lineage back to a town in england in which only 300 people survived the plague. He has gotten descendants of those people together to try to come up with an inoculation for it. There is some sort of gene mutation that they call "delta 32". some dispute these claims... but like any other disease--- the health care system/drug companies make too much money to cure the public! We will never see a cure for many diseases, just based on the possible loss of revenue.

I would still buy and use them. AIDS isn't the only terminal affliction that'll kill you. There's another one called KIDS that will send you to an early grave if you're not careful.

Absolutely not. The pictures in my biology book still haunts me to this day. Ever seen what syphillis, gonorrhea, and herpes do to your genitals? Fuck that.
