this is how we do it

i got lifelubed this week.

what the hell is lifelube? in truth, i couldn't be more flattered. i have been following lifelube for quite some time now, and it has become one of my breaths of fresh air in cyberland.

the blog's focus is gay men's health, including but not limited to sexual health. considering the last 25 years of gay men's history, this is sorely underserved in a culturally competent manner. and lifelube is competent. there is a true admiration and affection for gay men in ways i don't even possess (probably due to internalized homophobia).

anyway, if you haven't seen lifelube, give them a visit. there is a connection to in depth research for rectal microbicidal research. given the state of the global state of AIDS, a lubricant with a virus killing agent may be one of the better hopes for squashing much of the pandemic.

currently there is a series on the blog title "how is ..... healthy?" here is my participation... "how is rod rushing healthy"

today's sound choice is montell jordan with "this is how we do it"

bringing sexy back

jim pickett of life lube has requested that this be put out for gay men to give input. rectal microbicides offer a completely new direction for hiv prevention, making anal sex without condoms a taboo no longer. this is an idea that gay men are thirsty for. just look at the incredibly high syphillis rates. take the time to fill it out. they don't want to make a product that guys won't use. shout about this one from the rooftops boys.



PLEASE remember to point people to our LUBE SURVEY on www.IRMWG.org. It is CLOSING the end of JULY so time is of the essence. We have well over 5000 responses, let's break 6000 in the next couple of weeks! We can do that by sending notes to all of our contacts, posting items online, and doing the all-around U- RAH-RAH for the LUBE SURVEY.
