Is it Time for a Check Up?

Muffins:

I just  started putting things up on Squidoo thinking it would be a good place for specific risk reduction articles.  They wouldn’t let me post this article because they felt it was “Spambait”.  Well, I have no choice but to go about it another way.  This is thye first time I will redirect you to another portion of Heres-Margie that has been password protected.  The reason for this is that not everyone likes to look at naked penises.  If you are viewing this post from work or in a public environment, please use some common sense and not not go to the protected portion of the site.  unless, of course, you do what I do for work!

So here is what they would not let me post…

Recently a news release from the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) announced that there is a rise in new syphilis cases (2008) and that the new incidence among gay and bisexual men represented the greatest increase. Makes sense right? A lot of gay men to give and get head. This is one of the many ways syphilis can be transmitted. Therefore, it makes sense that there would be a rise. That combined with the tech savvy culture of queers (most of ‘em anyway) and their use of the Internet to find sexual partners it makes sense that they can have a lot of sex in a lot less time than it used to take to get all dressed up and go out to find their partners. Less time to hook up means more time to play – right? That means more time to potentially catch a bug or two. Window periods are important here. You could “play with” Johnnie, Pat, Matt and Steve one weekend and not even know you have contracted syphilis by the time you “do” Frank, Sam and Willie at the pool party on Thursday night. Not saying you are a whore and not judging if you are… just saying – maybe it’s time to figure out your risk of contracting “social diseases” and take some precautions so as not to become a statistic! Get in, get tested, know your sex partner’s status and consider condoms (yes even for blow jobs)! Not sure which one to use (maybe you really don’t like to suck on a raw bratwurst which is what a lot of people think a cock in a latex condom looks like) try the polyurethane Supra (made by Trojan).

It is clear, odorless and tasteless. You can wipe off the little bit of lube it comes packaged with and viola you have lunch! Click here to see actual photos I have posted for you: one wrapped in a Supra and one not. Not much difference visually and it could just save you from a real pain in the ass! Literally. The treatment for syphilis is a shot in each cheek and it is said to make sitting kinda tough for a bit.

Be forewarned that you will see naked penises if you click on the link and you will need to enter the password “syphilis” to enter that page.

That’s it. Done with my diatribe. Here’s to your sexual health.

Love and Peace,

Margie
