Thank you.
Having a negative test results doesn't mean a fucking thing other than the person was negative at the time they had their blood sucked.

I watched far too many of my friends die a miserable slow death over the years from AIDS.

This is like having your doctor operate on you without gloves or a mask because the day before they didn't test positive for any diseases.

A fair number of these pornstars escort. It is not hard to find the ads. Are they having sex with condoms 100% of the time? What happens if the John doubles the payday for a bareback ride? The risk is real.

I know a lot of escorts and they tend to have much safer sex then my friends that do the bars for free.
