.................. OK............ time to lay down the law to some bitches out there in cyberland....
Please take not of the following................. and if you go elsewhere...... buh-bye..........
This is blog is my blog.
It is a blog about things that I find interesting, socially curious, politically relevant, or just plain silly.
About my apparent "
obsession" with barebacking............
Why isn't it your obsession?
Unsafe sex is the number one health risk for gay and bisexual men between the ages of 16 & 32.
It is the number two health risk for gay and bisexual men between the ages of 33 & 50 - 2nd only to the negative health effects of Smoking.
I explore it here because it is relevant - it is a multifaceted discussion - and it is something that others EITHER glorify or abhor - but rarely try to discuss in a dispassionate and objective fashion.
I will sometimes post things on here that I don't actually agree with. Even if it may be
anti-gay.
Why? Because - it drew MY interest. Right or wrong. Good or bad. Something about it caused me to pause and reflect on it rather than simply react.
I blog about all things Jewish because I am. My personal theology. My daily life. How I treat others. These are all informed by my faith. Whether you think I am "
forcing it down your throat" or not is beside the point. Again, it is something about me I wish to share on my blog.
I welcome and appreciate diversity in all it's form even if you prefer only to see sculpted abs. If I want to post a pic of a chub I think is hot - or a
pic of me who is a chub - my choice.
I blog about my depreession because men of an alternative sexuality between the ages of 16 & 29 are the number one statistic for attempted and completed suicides in Australia, USA & Britain. The fact that you think I am a person pleading for sympathy is
both irrelevant and inaccurate.
I blog about this because the issue of mental health is still taboo and because people's reactions to my blog posts about my living with clinical depression - a mental illness requiring medication and behavioural treatment - illicit cringe worthy emails from people who
don't want to have to listen to me talk about it.
I blog because it is a creative outlet for me. And because I am an opinionated son of a bitch who likes a good, constructive argument.
Now - the highlighted portions in red are actual words from people that have been copied and pasted either from comments or emails.
Which begs the question - Why do YOU come here?
Clearly - there is something about my blog that keeps you coming here - even if it is just to hate on me like Mr Sad does.
That's fine. Because even whilst you write your negative comments / emails, you are actually considering what I've said and engaging in the debate - no matter toxic your point of view or reaction may be.
You keep on hating. I'll keep on blogging. I'll keep on being me.
After all - that is all a man can be.......... is himself.... especially on his own blog.
I wish you all blessings and happiness.
Shalom
