Safe Sex and Sex Related Discussions in Thailand

[QUOTE=Franciscass;2340273]
All this crap from the scientific community, whether it's the prevalence of STD'S or climate change it's all FAKE NEWS folks.

They don't know what they are talking about. I'm the smartest guy in the room.

No doubt this mindset exists with some members of the forum who have argued that there is little or no increased risk from unprotected sex.

The simple inconvenient truth is that there is. Truth is truth, there are no alternative facts.[/QUOTE]Evaluation of risk comes from scientific studies so you appear to contradict yourself, unless I just can't work out which parts of your post are ironical.

Yes the smartest guy in a room of one, is not hard to pick.

Science gives us theories, often later proved to be wrong, so guesses or approximations. E. g. Years ago they were telling us saturated fat and cholesterol will kill you from heart disease, now believed to be bullshit. The eskimos had very low heart disease from a diet high in saturated fat and cholesterol. Now sugar and simple starches (over done) stuff up your liver and will kill you (slowly) from a number of possible diseases, the latest theories.

We should be far more worried about what we eat and drink, exposure to chemicals, falling off motorcycles, and pregnancies than about STDs.

Most people that died of syphilis in the post antibiotic era, died of aortic aneurysm, later it's was proved Aortic aneurysm is caused by many other things, alcohol, food and lifestyle. Today there are still many people dying of Aortic aneurysm, thanks to the technology, we can see the real cause although the technology is not accurate. Tabes dorsalis and general paresis are inexistent today. Many people was diagnosed with tabes dorsalis in the post antibiotic era, when they found antibiotics, they saw the antibiotics was not effective at treating those conditions, many people had to take poison medication that destroy their body just because of a inaccurate wassernmann test. Today nobody died of heart disease from syphilis, the technologies are advanced we can find many other pathologies. Today nobody develop syphilis myelopathy because the technology is advanced and can find many other pathology. We can still die of heart disease from staphylococcus and tb. Because we can culture the bacteria in the heart and antibiotics are effective at curing these conditions without surgery.

Theories alway change and scrare ignorant people.

[QUOTE=Goatscrot;2340233]There is no clear evidence that regular ejaculation is linked to less risk of prostate cancer.[/QUOTE]I am the evidence, my prostate works very well LOL.

[QUOTE=Franciscass;2340273]I don't give a fiddler's fuck[/QUOTE]I've not heard this expression before, but love it. I'm going to start using that.

I am 55 and got screened for all STDs and everything came negative except for Hepatitis see. I tested positive for hepatitis see, how is it possible? I never barebacked girls (vagina or anus). I only practiced unprotected oral sex. Drinking too much alcohol causes hepatitis? Is it curable? When I google, it says that shit causes liver disease or cancer.

[QUOTE=Smoothy;2340668]I've not heard this expression before, but love it. I'm going to start using that.[/QUOTE]UK slang I guess. Is a fiddler a violin player or a wanker?

I was really puzzled by frequent UK slang "the duck's nuts", now just how good are the duck's nuts? Duck beaks are a popular Hong Kong food item but not much meat on them. Not sure I ever saw "Duck's nuts". Similar to the "Bee's knees", another silly term.

Isn't it strange that "fiddling around", "farting around", "pi-ss farting around", and "fucking around" could all mean close to the same thing?

HepC is curable.

Sexual contacts are not the only way to catch HepC. You may have contracted it from containated blood.

[QUOTE=Goatscrot;2341064]Any history of IV drug use?[/QUOTE]I never used IV drug. I am a heavy drinker. Do you think alcohol causes hepatitis-C?

[QUOTE=Jimbo785;2341154]I never used IV drug. I am a heavy drinker.

HIV and hepatitis are the stds that kill the most people every year unlike other bacterial and viral stds that rarely cause trouble when left untreated.

Alcohol doesn't cause HepC but weakens your immune system that make a easy way for the virus. You may have contracted it from contaminated blood in a hospistal, Did you recently recieve blood? Now you have chronic hepC, but before having chronic hepc, you had acute hepc, most healthy people clear the virus when it's acute without treatment.

Avoid alcohol and follow your doctor, take the treatment.

You will still have antibodies to HepC in your body even after treatment.

I injected her with interferon under the skin twice a week for 8 months. She also took Ribavirin. She was totally cured. It took a lot of effort and not giving up.

[QUOTE=Jimbo785;2341589]I received blood 6 years ago. I will start the treatment. Are you doctor?[/QUOTE]I am dermatovenereologist in Brazil. I also studied infectology. Having a second opinion is a good idea. Get tested again for confirmation. If the second doctor has the same opinion, take the treatment, hepatitis is curable. Unfortunately, you were unlucky if you contracted hepatitis in a hospital because blood is screened in the hospitals but sometimes people get infected but it's very rare. Most countries outside Africa, they screen blood many times before giving to a patient, they change needles all the time. If you are not vaccinated, get vaccinated for HepA and HepB. Ask your doctor if it's a good idea to get vaccinated for HepA and HepB.
