I look at these sorts of posts and just laugh at how stupid it is. People are free to live their lives how they want, but it's like they have to ask the internet for a fucking concensus to their own choices like they are some Borg drone or something.

Polycule social dynamics being generally unstable notwithstanding. The answer to this is fucking obvious. Don't bring someone with HIV into your sex circle unless you want everyone to catch HIV. We're I somehow ok with this polygamous situation and one of the partners was going to say "hey we are bringing an HIV positive person into the sex pile" I'd be like, no you aren't or I'm done. Actually I'd not even give them the chance to choose no, if they are asking they've already had sex with them, so you just leave, unless you want HIV.

And if you're the one asking "how do I introduce the HIV positive person into the polycule in a way that won't break it" you are too retarded to have sex anyway.

Only bigots are afraid of HIV! Come on people it's 2023, StIgMaS aRe OuTdAtEd

Literally, that is the sentiment in that thread. Inclusivity now means being willing to catch an incurable disease to avoid making the carrier feel bad.

Mindboggling.

This but unironically. HIV is not the AIDS of 1990. Its a manageable disease like Hep B, herpes, chlamydia.

Inclusivity now means being willing to catch an incurable disease to avoid making the carrier feel bad.

If someone you loved -- wife, husband, son, daughter -- caught an incurable infectious disease, one which cannot be cured but can be managed, what would you do? Abandon them and move on?

"Sorry hubby to hear that you caught hepatitis B from a blood transfusion, but you're dead to me now."

"Son, sorry to hear about your Zika caught while on a tour of duty in Africa, but I can never see you again."

I can just feel the waves of love flowing off you.

Yes cause not wanting to be infected with an incurable disease means I will definitely abandon sick loved ones. I've had friends who died of AIDS, it may be "manageable" nowadays but I still don't want it. Just like I don't want hep B, chlamydia, herpes, or any other STD.

But that's fine, I'll add "doesn't want diseases" to the ever-growing list of things that make me a bigot.

Well at least you have admitted what sort of person you are.

Lol well that's not the gotcha you think it is but thank you for such a perfect example of progressive thinking. Someone disagreed with you so you instantly jump to maligning their character by cherry-picking a snippet of a single comment, stripping out ALL relevant context and obvious sarcasm, then proudly present it as proof of your radically incorrect yet strongly held conclusions that anyone who disagrees with you is a Bad Person.

[–]weavilsatemyface 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

You literally said that you would "definitely abandon sick loved ones", because you don't want to catch the disease.

obvious sarcasm

Right, suuuure it was. (Now that's sarcasm.)

anyone who disagrees with you is a Bad Person.

No, just people who think that people who have manageable diseases don't deserve to be part of a loving relationship.

In this thread, people seem to have forgotten that we're discussing actual human beings who want to have a relationship, and you're saying that they are the bad people.

Fuck that.
