interestrateripoff Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/love-sex/chemsex-should-be-public-health-priority-due-to-hiv-risk-experts-say-a6719886.html#gallery Chemsex, having sex under the influence of illegal drugs and often with multiple partners, is rapidly increasing and should be a public health priority due to increased HIV risk say experts. The practice is mainly carried out by gay men using a combination of drugs such as mephedrone, GHB, GBL and crystal meth enabling them to have sexual sessions lasting hours or even days. People who engage in chemsex are putting themselves at risk of not only sexually transmitted diseases but also serious mental harm due to drug dependency, according to research by sexual health experts published in the BMJ.The authors referred to the Chemsex Study, the first British research project of its kind from earlier this year which used data from the European Men-who-have-sex-with-men Internet Survey (EMIS). Of 1,142 respondents in the London boroughs of Lambeth, Southwark, and Lewisham, around a fifth reported chemsex within the past five years and one in ten within the past four weeks, suggesting that it is practised by a minority of men who have sex with men. I wonder how they'll try and get the safe sex message across with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porca misèria Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Yep. You can have sex with drugs (like alcohol or caffeine), but it's best without. Though there seems to be a whole branch of the spam industry thinks otherwise and wants us to buy dodgy chemical aids to sex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

interestrateripoff Posted November 22, 2015 Author Share Posted November 22, 2015 http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/nov/22/addicted-to-chemsex-gay-drugs-film Miguel was in the middle of a three-day sex and drug binge when he looked at Grindr and saw an advert asking for people to participate in a film about sex and drug binges. “I hooked up with a guy,” he says, “and then we contacted them.” Soon a cameraman was filming him injecting drugs. And with that Miguel became one of the central storylines of the new documentary feature Chemsex. This is the first film to explore a gay subculture that’s recently found notoriety in the mainstream media after the NHS and the British Medical Journal identified it as a health priority. And this comes almost a decade after chemsex caused some arguments in the gay community itself, inspiring sadness, attrition, blame and confusion. Chemsex is identified in the film as the habit of engaging in weekend-long parties fuelled by sexually disinhibiting drugs, such as crystal meth, GHB, GBL and mephedrone. These parties involve multiple people and are mostly facilitated online. The testimonies in the film from people involved in the subculture directly link chemsex to alarming rates of HIV infection. In London four new positive diagnoses are currently made daily. There is candid talk on film about “pozzing up”, the practise of knowingly becoming infected with the virus. Meth, meph and G create a potent cocktail enabling extremes of behaviour, which carries significant risks for the sexual and mental health of habitual users.
