The era of PrEP is here, and it has been a game changer.

Common? Yes.

More likely than not? Yes. 

 

good point but based on what many escorts tell me, even guys who claim to be "safe only" when the moment comes they BB.

But the “default” should be whatever two sexually mature adults agree to. 

Of course should be consensual, whether is among client and escort or 2 guys having free sex.

Which completely contradicts the purpose of a default setting, "...eliminate the need for users to repeatedly select preferences, letting the system carry out standard actions automatically."

Unless the factory setting travelled here in a Time Machine from 1981, it still comes with a “some assembly required” insert.

That’s not the definition of default.

As others have said, in this day and age, BB is default!

Manitoba just declared HIV a public health emergency. You live in a bubble no offence.

I hope you're not shaming folks who take PrEP instead of using condoms. 

Manitoba demographics have a lot to do with healthcare issues. Check the obesity rate among other things.

when using a condom got Gonorrhea and Syphilis..fluids were exchanged enough..BUT I dealt with it as a fucking adult! No? Deal with the consequences of your actions like an adult. Period! Once on Prep and now others meds zero infections. But with that said have had few assignations. Deal with it like an adult! No doubt my comments will result in hand ringing and condemnation.

Manitobas HIV crisis is almost totally drug related amongst the Indigenous population. Very sad but not a gay issue out there.
