Is it safe to say that a considerable amount of potential HIV exposure is due to cheating and extramarital relations?

[cmberman87]

I couldn't help but notice, while browsing the HIV Prevention discussions, that a considerable portion of postings regarding potential HIV exposure and contraction are created by individuals that have indulged in cheating or extramarital relations. Does this bother any of you? I've noticed most individuals that respond to these posts only address the questions being asked--is it hard for you to refrain from also addressing the behavior that the original poster also details?

Just curious.

This forum is about judging risks, or lack thereof.  It certainly isn't our job to judge people or "scold" them for their indiscretions.  No, it isn't hard at all.

the purpose of this forum is to discuss someone's risk and answer questions regarding transmission and testing...not to judge ppl.

do you have a hiv concern?

NO... It is from having unprotected sex.
