I must say I am not in the least surprised that the medical community has determined that HIV can be transmitted by oral sex. I think this conclusion was inevitable. So, I am not surprised that we now suspect oral transmission can occur. The real question is how do we react to this news. Personally, I am led back to my opening statement about risk.
Every human has the capacity to make their own decision about what constitutes an reasonable risk.
Clearly, given all the press regarding bareback sex, the human capacity for the acceptance of differing levels of risk is basically infinite. My own view is that a wide variety of personal decisions can exist regarding oral sex. Accepting a risk is not bad or wrong, but taking a risk that involves your life without thinking it through is a problem. So I hope that whatever choice all of us make is informed, beyond that, risk is simply part of waking up every day. There's always room for improvement.
