If you lived through the 90s you know it was a weird time...and apparently, school sex education to teach students about HIV and AIDS was equally bizarre. Please, come along for this ride.

When I was in school in the 90's, they taught us that AIDS was purely something that homosexuals got, and even brought in a gay man with AIDS to talk to us about all the pills and stuff that both he and his partner had to take to stay alive. The idea was definitely to make us think twice about being gay, but all I could think about at the time was how touching it was that this man loved his husband so much that he was willing to risk getting AIDS to be with him, haha.

That's something I still hear. That it's a "gay man's disease". I still hear that it spontaneously started because gay sex. Like that isn't something that has existed in our species since before our species even existed. Sometimes they say god created it to punish gay men, others just seem to seriously think it just appeared from thin air or something. Didn't help that a certain president also said this...

The rapid test can't be used diagnostically, so if you get a positive test, you'll have to get your blood drawn and sent to a lab. If you get a negative result on the rapid test, though, you most likely don't have HIV (though false negatives are still possible).

My uncle contracted HIV in the 80s (luckily he is doing very well and it has not progressed to AIDS). Because of this I was educated about HIV/AIDS at a young age. I remember in my health class in the early 2000s having to correct my teacher when she said it was best to avoid all physical contact with someone with HIV/AIDS. When I told her I routinely hugged my uncle and gave/got a kiss on the cheek, she looked horrified! Sad that even a decade or so after this video, the stigma and misinformation was still so pervasive, even among educators.

I'm sorry to hear that, and that the stigma and misinformation is still persistent. I sincerly hope that your uncle will continue to stay well and that it won't progress. This is one of the things that makes me so confused about the US, it's like for some reason they refuse to update the information for certain things, even though it's harmful when they don't. Had you been where I live, the teacher wouldn't have said that, and nobody would have so much as batted an eye you two coming into contact with each other. I want to say when I was in school, we had our first sex ed in 5th grade so I would have been like 10 or 11, so around the year 2003-2004. Then again, one of our sex ed teachers we had later (8th grade I think) actually really talked smack on the US sex ed and how outdated and bad most of it was. I think she was actually from the US originally, so it was something she was very passionate about.

Uh, maybe they could get away with that scare tactic of classmates dying back in the early 80s, but by the 90s there were treatments, and condoms were known for prevention. And surely by the late 90s treatment had advanced enough that HIV was magnitudes better to deal with than it was in the late 80s (note, the first antiretroviral for HIV was approved in March of 1987 (AZT, which yes, I know wasn'tperfect and was extremely expensive, but it didn't take long for many others to follow, and later the same year condoms were approved to be officially sold as HIV prevention, meaning anything from the 90s had no excuse for at least making it clear that condoms, for freaks sake, condoms can prevent HIV altogether. I don't think chemoprophylaxis was a thing until WAY later, and the idea of HIV spread being essentially a non-risk if you've got an undetectable viral load for a certain amount of time, but again, holy freaking crap is the scare stuff overkill)

More specifically, if the relationship seems like it has the potential of turning sexual, I insist that we both be tested first. I've always tried my best to frame this as "just safety protocol", but without fail, every one of my partners has pushed back. They usually get defensive and put me in the position of having to nurse their hurt feelings. An older gentleman I dated took it as me calling him a "dirty old man". At best they just try and ignore the subject altogether. But when I stand firm and they realize that they won't be getting into bed with me without that piece of paper, they put up and shut up.

@@R.M.3.14 I’m sure if they knew they would’ve gotten aids from having sex with a specific person they wouldn’t have done it. It isn’t a choice to get aids. Safe sex and all of that should be educated more. There also people who get S/Ad and end up with the disease. It’s not a choice. Sex is a natural thing and a lot of young people aren’t educated enough abt the topic. So please don’t say it’s a choice when it isn’t people don’t just chose to get diseases and they shouldn’t be judged for having one.

MDJ, you said something here that really resonated with me when you talked about how HIV/AIDS is no longer a death sentence and how there are many treatments available. Several years ago, a friend of mine who is a gay man, went public with his own story about this and what happened to him. When you said that we shouldn't be afraid or ashamed to talk about it, he was the first person I thought of. His bravery may have saved countless lives. He told the story via a recorded interview with an LGBTQ website, it might have been Queerty, I don't remember. He had engaged in a same sex encounter one night, knew that the partner's status was positive, but they used a condom. Except that the partner removed the condom prior to penetration (there's a term for this but it's not coming to mind). My friend had no idea until he used the bathroom after this other guy was gone and saw/felt the evidence. He went into a panic. Knowing that antiretrovirals can significantly reduce the risk of post-exposure transmission, he researched the nearest hospital that carried PEP and immediately went there. He was denied the medication at first. And I mean outright DENIED as in "we don't offer that treatment" when he knew damn well they did. He put up the FIGHT OF HIS LIFE to receive the medication and had to go to the hospital administrator to obtain it. Had he not fought so hard, made such a scene, even if he didn't know this was available to him, he may have died. He was so courageous to tell that story so that other people know about these medications and their importance. Even if he felt like it made him look bad, he did it anyway. He's still around BTW.

There was a big panic for foster parents thinking they were going to get kids with AIDS from the "crack babies" and (racial stereotype I'm not saying). I was a kid in the 80s and a teen in the 90s (class of 99), and this was what were told.

Oh memory unlocked!! I heard that “when you have sex you’re having sex with every person that person has had sex with and every person they had sex with” all over in school. You have sex once with the wrong person & you’ve had sex with the whole planet! And while that argument was based on biology (STIs) it turned into a spiritual argument. Because Biblically when you have sec you’re getting married (so I was taught based on Adam & Eve not having a wedding ceremony due to no other people). So if you had premarital sex you got “married” & then when you actually got married you were committing adultery. Fun times.

She was one of the trainers and did it specifically because her story was atypical in the nineties in that she was married, straight, non drug user whose husband had gotten HIV before they married but wasn't diagnosised until he became symptomatic years later since he didn't strike anyone as high risk.

It's so terrible how early misinformation became entrenched "facts" in the minds of many. 12ish years later as a therapist in a hospital, I had a 60 y.o. female patient who learned during the course of her hospitalization that she was HIV positive. It was likely due to a blood transfusion, which doesn't matter...I only to say that because there was such a stigma about HIV/AIDS and sex/"promiscuity" that she would not accept a referral for treatment...because her family would then know the diagnosis. 20 years on, I still think of her and hope that she did seek treatment.

The only reason why it can "be more likely in gay men" is because even with lube, anal tends to cause a lot of small little tears, even if it isn't enough for you to notice. Which can give more places for all STDs to get inside even if they pull out. Problem with that logic is that is assuming that isn't something straight cis couples do all the time...Which it is. The only ones I know that don't are almost all homophobes. Thus doing that, even if they're both straight and cis, makes the guy gay by association. Like those incels that think that cis men that have lots of multiple cis female partners are "gay" for various reasons. (If you can handle the stupidity, it's worth a laugh to see the various leaps in logic they make to come to this conclusion.)

I'm a biologist and a biology teacher and last class i talked with my students about STDs and asked them to do a presentation debunking the most common misconception about STI and STDs, today one of rhe parents came to talk to me and complained about the assignment, keep in mind that the students are in high school (second year here in Brazil) 16 years is the average age, the mom said her daughter is too young for that such thing and subject, oh I can't wait to talk about the reproductive system and pass the assignment about intersex/transgender/cis people, the concession will be funny.

Always amazes me when parents say "but my child is too young to learn this about sex/sexuality". Like... Okay, maybe they are 'too young' in that they aren't personally sexually active yet... That's the PERFECT time to learn - you want to learn the risks of driving drunk before you ever get out on the road. We don't wait for you to have a few beers and get behind the wheel to tell you why it's a bad idea. Why would parents want to do that with sex? No use teaching them once they're 'old enough' - by then they may be pregnant or have caught something!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ADDRESS THIS, IM DYING TO KNOW YOUR SIDE OF IT!

Wait, on unconscious patients? Presumably without consent? Huh... weird, and seems ethically, uh, dubious at best, and, well...a word that begins with r and rhymes with grape at worst. I'm also assuming you mean prostate exams (the closest male equivalent to a pelvic exam), rather than prostrate exams, as I've never heard of the latter in medical literature/terminology. I'm also curious about the underlying sourcing on that/if maybe consent forms are slipped in somewhere amongst all the other stuff you sign to get surgery. But still, that would more or less defeat the whole "informed" part of informed consent... Only thing I can say for certain is that every single surgery I've witnessed both at my current hospital and another nearby hospital where I shadowed a couple of surgeons for a bit has included exactly zero unrelated pelvic/prostate exams. In fact, such exams are never even performed without at least one witness of the same sex/gender of the person undergoing the exam. So, male physician would always have a female nurse at the bedside assisting for a pelvic exam (to be honest, the female physicians do as well, since they're often just easier to hand off swabs and such to the nurse rather than to try and handle it all yourself). And prostate/rectal exams likewise have an accompanying chaperone. It's honestly just good policy nowadays for literally any honest physician, as it protects them from false accusations and, since they're just honestly practicing medicine, doesn't actually hinder them at all (in fact, it often helps, as they have someone to hand swabs off to). Idk, it seems weird enough (especially given some of medical science's less than stellar history) to be theoretically plausible in certain, probably primarily isolated teaching hospitals. But it's also the sort of thing that nowadays I just couldn't imagine the medical community supporting, unless they've actually got some sort of data to back it up (i.e. a reduced morbidity/mortality associated with such exams before seemingly otherwise unrelated surgeries) Edit: just also wanted to add that there's also no real reason for it. There's TONS of legitimate reasons for pelvic exams, and any emergency room for freaks sake would have an abundance of them, let alone, say, a Labor/delivery ward. So why on earth would you do one on a healthy, normal patient in for an unrelated thing? Hell, if you want healthy controls, go to an OB/GYN office/clinic for routine PAP smears. If you want potentially unhealthy examples, go to any OB/GYN clinic/emergency room. Prostate exams I could see being a bit more difficult though, as there just isn't as much need for them nowadays with PSA testing. But again, I feel like there's ways around it that don't involve sedating a patient and doing it without consent. Hell, you could just ask. Sure, many people will say heck no, but you'd be surprised the number of people that would agree to a prostate exam for educational purposes if explained properly. Or hell, just pay college students for it. I bet for about $150 a piece, an assurance that they're helping train future physicians, and perhaps a free STD screen as well, you'd get TONS of college students lining up for it. Just post flyers all over the college, and bingo bango, you've got plenty of consenting patients.

I remember our sex ed class in junior high. A couple of high school students came to our class and gave very factual, blunt information. It was probably the most uncomfortable I've been, but it was a really great way to go about it. We were even shown (on a plastic model) how to put a condom on. The high schoolers got credit for teaching the class, and I still admire their bravery to this day. They normalized the information, and I never felt confused. We were able to write our questions on a piece of paper after each class and turn it in to be answered anonymously at the next class. There was a specific class that talked about HIV, and how it was ok to touch someone, hug someone, play with someone who had HIV. This was mid-90s, so we were encouraged not to share a drink or eating utensils. But we were also told that's just good practice anyway. 😊 I wish every school had a similar approach.

So I have two different scenarios this reminded me of: 1. In 7th grade, my mom, who is an ARNP, came to my Catholic grade school on World AIDS day, but was not permitted to talk about how AIDS is transmitted through sex, she could only say, "bodily fluids" and so when one of my classmates asked about kissing, my mom had to say something like, "Not kissing, but things that might come after kissing for a while." The kid was really confused, and since he wasn't sitting that far from me, I just told him I would explain it later. 2. At orientation for my first year of teaching, after telling us about how little money we were going to be making, how much they were going to be taking out for retirement, and other stressful things, they then made us watch a blood borne pathogens safety video where they basically told us we could die, and how dangerous blood can be, so don't help that kindergartner with the bloody nose, don't touch them at all because you could get HIV and then AIDS and die, call the nurse and the custodians. Yes, you have to be careful, but it's not as life or death as the video made it out to be, and despite me knowing everything already, it was really stressful to watch after an already stressful morning.

Then a couple of years later my daughter had too be a stayer in hospital for a week. There was a little boy in her ward. He was .about 2 and he had aids. His parents didn't want anything to do with him and the nurses WARNED me he had HIV, I sat on his bed with my daughter and read books to both children. He was my daughters companion for her week stay in hospital. Nurses would come in and were shocked either I was sitting on his bed with my daughter or we were on her bed. I was horrified the nurses treated him like a leper. It disgusted me. Nothing happened to my daughter sitting on his bed. Nothing happened to ,me cuddling him. My daughter is 36 this year. I hated the fear mungering that it brought out of ignorant people. Especially health care workers. Oh I had a junior nurse when I was going to have my transfusion 1 day before my daughter was born saying to me " aren't you glad they screen for aids these days" well she got sacked after my report. I don't tolerate stupid behaviour at all.

Now I understand that if I did end up with someone I graduated with with HIV or AIDS they most likely didn't get it from having sex, but from sharing needles. I have been told that in the area I grew up in AIDS cases have been happening again and it's because the drug use has gotten worse. I actually met a lady from my town that had HIV and she caught it back in the 90s, she was older than me and sure enough it was because of needles, another person who has it was because of a blood transfusion that happened before testing. Between this shit and the videos about stranger danger and good touch bad touch, we were paranoid that a stranger in a white van where lurching around every corner.

I remember doing a report on HIV/AIDS crisis for my health class. I remember learning about how a lot of the negative stigma and delay of actually doing something to help was because of homophobia. Gay people (as an umbrella term) were more likely to get the disease because they were less likely to use condoms and other safe sex products as they couldn't get pregnant. Because the vast majority of victims were gay, no one wanted to help them and misinformation was rampant. Few people wanted to admit that they had HIV because that was essentially the same as coming out. It was so intertwined with gay people that it became known as the "gay disease" People have looked back on how everything was handled and pretty much all agree that if people didn't let their internal biases get in the way, the crisis would've been a lot better. The crisis also worsened homophobia around the country because people now immediately associated "gay" with "diseased" The HIV/AIDS crisis most likely set LGBT rights back years and it still continues to effect the community today.

Also, about half a million died due to the gross mishandling of the disease by the Reagan Admin. If you ever wondered why there seem to be more younger gay people-its because there literally are.

It's absolutely shocking that there are some people today who still believe AIDS/HIV is a "gay disease" 🤯

I remember in the late 90s and early 2000s it being the "gay"disease . it wasn't until I was 16 or so in2006 I learned it was indiscriminate with heterosexuals. I knew a bi guy who couldn't give blood in 2008 because he'd slept with guys in the past 10yrs. It's still a stigma

I actually remember watching the second video in the 4th grade. I remember AIDS being in the news and being confused and curious. When the video was shown in my class I found it comforting and helpful.

The thing I remember was being shown a Brain Pop video that actually did a good job of explaining how bloodborne diseases worked and how it wasn't just done through having (unmarried) sex. Unfortunately I don't think it talked about how you could be born with it. For that I needed to watch a Discovery Kids show called Scout's Safari, about a girl living in South Africa learning about the local culture and animals. That episode had one of her friends interact with a kid on his soccer team who kept missing games because he was born with HIV, and he didn't want to tell anybody that he was going to treatment.

I grew up going to the Unitarian Universalist Church and part of the Sunday School curriculum included human sexuality. The program evolved into the Our Whole Lives (OWL) classes which is very popular and more widespread these days. My kids took the very comprehensive, sixth grade course and often commented as they got older about feeling very knowledgeable and prepared. It's so important to prepare our children. I really appreciate the information that you share on your videos, I believe it makes a big difference.

I took the high school OWL class too! I wasn’t Unitarian Universalist, but my friend was, and I remember getting such a thrill from hearing grown up talking about sex in such a frank manner in a CHURCH. It was very exciting.

This reminds me too much of my public middle school sex ed class in my incredibly religious town in the mid-2000s. Even almost 2 decades later, I am still actively unlearning the misinformation and pushing away the shame from growing up in purity culture. Thank you for all you do.

I was a victim of CSA, and I remember sitting in our yearly "sex ed" seminar, crying scared that I was now diseased, and anyone entering into a consensual, loving relationship with me in the future would end up dead because of what happened to me. It's interesting how they took the 'damaged goods' philosophy of purity culture and began pushing it with science once religious shame wasn't working anymore. Even more interesting is how they managed to get public funding for it.

I had a patient with HIV that she contracted from a blood transfusion. Everyone treated her like she had the plague. We had QUITE the stern talk with certain people about how they treated her. I always made it a point to make small touches like holding her hand. She felt so stigmatized her whole life. Everyone was so scared of her since the early 80s. The poor woman was touch-starved.

I had a needle stick incident recently, and I will say that everyone, down to the pharmacist who could have no idea why I was seeking HIV meds (PEP), was super nice to me. I’m old enough to remember a time when that would categorically not have been the case. We still have a long way to go, but it’s getting a little better.
