Dream Come True of the Year
Who would have ever dreamed I'd still be alive in the 21st century, Still Sexual After All These Years.

Learning to Love Me
They've called me fag my whole life long. They still do. They call me worthless without noticing or bothering to care. They've called me nigger to my face, and “who knows what else” behind my back.
They see me and think: black fag with AIDS, and it's not all that shocking in their minds because that's what happens to fags, right?
So here I stand, a nigger faggot with AIDS in a world that has very few positive dreams for me and my kind.
But I don't care so much anymore. I care more about my own dreams. I care more about loving myself than somebody else liking me. I care more about being comfortable with me than another human's opinion of me.
Walk in my shoes; you'll find a man who's learning to accept himself despite the many ways the world tells him: we don't care about you nigger faggots with AIDS. Walk in my shoes and you'll find a man learning to love me.

So Many Men, So Little Sensitivity
Why do so many gay men feel the need to say things, like, DISEASE-FREE, NO BUGS, SUPER CLEAN, UB2?
Saying these things makes a person ugly. Insensitivity is downright unattractive. Yet these words are more than commonplace online. Makes me wanna scream, then open up a can of whoop ass on somebody's head, but I know better.
Instead I ask, HIV-Neg Guys: Must You Hurt My Feelings? And to those who just don't get it, I have a cup of patience and try to explain Why the Term “Disease-Free” Hurts My Feelings. Here's hoping somebody's listening.

Armpits Make the Man
Whoa! Those are some ripe pits! Lemme get another whiff. Fuck, man, that's what you call funky!
In my dreams, my buddy and I take pride in our pits and the scents that make us men.
Deodorant? Maybe once a decade. Cologne? Ha!
No need for artificial scents. All I need is a good whiff of a good man, preferably my buddy.

Funky, but True
I haven't belonged to a gym in years, but I'm having the best workouts of my life. Find out how in Body By Fun.
I may be HIV-positive, but that needn't be the primary concern of the people I date. Find out why in Why HIV Status Doesn't Matter.
I may have survived two-plus decades living with AIDS, but I'm not immune to a broken heart each and every time I hear the words "clean" and "disease-free." See what I mean in Why the Term “Disease-Free” Hurts My Feelings.
