Failure to appreciate these rules has resulted in bloodshed before, and may again.

I say good on ya! There's too many diseases around to risk it, and anyone can be a carrier.

I've had friends get STDs and have unwanted pregnancies from not using condoms (lets face it, breakages can happen)... I've just got no sympathy, it's easy to avoid, it's just plain lazy not to use a condom.

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

So far I've avoided the unwanted pregnancies (though you'd have a hard time believing it, what with the size of my beer gut right now ;-))

[filmgeeknz.livejournal.com]

well yes, unwanted pregnancies aren't really the problem here are they? ;) But the fact remains that for over half the world's population it is one of the main reasons for wearing a condom. It doesn't stop people thinking that just cos they're on the pill or the jab they don't need one though.

I actually have a friend who admitted to me after getting the clap that she didn't use condom's because she thought they were 'uncool'. I just told her risking herself to STIs was worse, thankfully she learnt her lesson.

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

Good girl.. ;-) unfortunately, for gay men the clap is a fact of life: its part of having oral sex without condoms. (you have to admit, a condom *tastes* terrible). in fact if you have sex with more than 2 people in the room, chances are fingers will transmit whatever bacterial infections any one person has. HIV is *much* harder to catch if you use rubbers... h

Not to mention herpes, hepatitis, gonorrhea, syphilis and a whole host of other bacterial, viral and parasitic infections from sucking dick or eating ass - you can't be too careful these days - bugs are rampant. Condoms are smart but they don't protect you from everything. :o( - Erich

Dunno about taste, but they certainly smell yuck. Even before they're used ;)

[whiskerfish.livejournal.com]

Yay bloodshed!
As much as I hate condoms, I know they are a fact of life.
I can't say how many times one has saved my life, but it is safe to say that it has been very many.

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

unintentional bloodshed dont forget!!! *blush blush*

Good Fish.
*rubs Fish's belly*

[whiskerfish.livejournal.com]

Yes, sweet innocent, unintentional contact of your foot with someone's face.
Yeah, I can see how that could happen.

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

Reflex? :-(

(As I said, I'm not proud of it... If it happened again I'd just get up and walk out. And wait for someone I knew to ask me why I decided to leave... Auckland is a VERY small town. ;-))

[sbduk.livejournal.com]

I wasn't aware it was open to discussion.

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

No, but sometimes people need reminding.

[kiltbear.livejournal.com]

Growler is a very good and virtuous piggy! Good Growler, here, take this condom...

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

OInk! :-)

[liftinmoose.livejournal.com]

is the bloodshed from.... extreme fisting?

[f8n-begorra.livejournal.com]

It's a much funnier story than that, but I should allow Growler describe his retribution himself! He'll be awake in about 6 hours.

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

LOL that IS extreme!!
No, the blood was from the guy's nose. I'm not particularly proud of it. Just before he entered me I noticed he'd sneakily removed the rubber he'd gone to great pains to make sure I saw going on. The quickest thing to do, since I was in a sling, was to shove him away with my foot before I got too mad, but the angry turned a firm shove into something more akin to a kick.. He bounced off the wall, snatched up his clothes and ran, leaving a pretty trail of red spots through the club and out the door.
How embarassing...

[liftinmoose.livejournal.com]

yes how embarrassing. Of course I'm totally turned on by it.

[theotherqpc.livejournal.com]

considering that you didn't have any alcohol wipes or latex footies on, i think that may have been a case where unsanitary bloodsports could've been considered safer sex.

or not-sex.

either way, it's fookin' great.

*wave*
here by way of f8n_begorra

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

LOL! not into 'red' in the slightest but in this case I was quietly pleased with myself. Having never (really) been a violent person I was embarassingly chuffed with my abilities in the physical arena...

[theotherqpc.livejournal.com]

not into 'red' in the slightest

are you sure about that, mister i-had-a-date-with-a-traffic-cone?

i'm not much of a violent person either, but i've imagined (fantasized?) that i could beat up gaybashers quite nicely if they decided to mess with me.

maybe it's leather ego.

[theotherqpc.livejournal.com]

...or maybe it's Maybelline!

[smellykaka.livejournal.com]

Umm, given the circumstances I'd say that reaction was very appropriate. None of this "not proud of it" shit.

He deserved worse.

[boofbiker.livejournal.com]

On that note, anyone who tries to fuck Growler without a condom will also have to deal with a 6'5 tall Aussie who I guarantee would not be in a good mood. Boof is very protective of his mates!

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

AWwww.... *love love love*

[f8n-begorra.livejournal.com]

...and the wrath of an angry Irishman too!

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

*Giggles*
I can just imagine the guy's terror at being beset by two angry redheads- one beating on his head while the other gnaws at his knees...

(as a matter of fact yes, I *am* looking for a spanking ;-))

Wuff!! you are one horny, sexy, beautiful man and I would expect nothing less of you.

[jawnbc]

And a self-righteous Canadian. No one wants to be on the wrong side of Canadian self-righteousness. Believe me!

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

If it's anythign like my Mother's Guildford self-righteousness then yes, I believe you!!

[beg1n.livejournal.com]

Will 847 condoms be enough for your stay at my place? Just a quick calculation on my part...

If not, I can run over to the Lonestar and nab a few more...

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

I keep coming up with 892, I must be calculating in metric condoms...

[boofbiker.livejournal.com]

should I bring a bulk pack from Australia?? I have contacts. Who needs luggage when you can just bring rubbers.

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

You're on to a clever idea there... then again, I've seen how much lugggage you pack!!!

[egbubba.livejournal.com]

As a public service to all who may cross Growler's path, I remind you of the following resource:

www.condomania.com

Look for bulk order discounts!

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

*grin*

[debxena.livejournal.com]

Very sensible indeed. Especially given the near-misses of your past ...

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

indeed!

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

Oh and, BTW, *hugs* beautiful lady...

[jawnbc]

Agreed. I'm so not into it being a "choice." Any man (except my husband) who doesn't start with condoms as the presumed norm is on thin fucking ice.

I've got physical with a guy who did this to me...I hope he didn't really like is foreskin after I damn near ripped off his dick.

[growler-south.livejournal.com]

welll.. it depends on circumstance. I presume anyone who resides in the US is used to BB sex, and so I'm not shy about making sure they understand the above. (growler does not.. etc).

After that its straight into thin fucking ice territory. Complete with broken noses and profuse bleeding. Though I hope not to repeat that.

Bravo. *Applause*
