This monday was the first day that I started to carry the HIV egg with me and so far it is not going so good. I only have class monday, wednesday, and Friday, both monday and today my egg had cracked and licked all over my desk. I had to spent the rest of the day smelling like eggs, so after this experiment I don't think I 'll look at eggs the same way again. I only have this friday left to really expose my egg the way I want to and this time I'll boiled it. I didn't have time to boil the egg today so tommorrow night before I go to bed I'll boil it and put it in the frig for Friday. But besides that I had some feedbacks about the HIV eggs. Most people thought that it was funny and laugh, others gave me weird looks like I was crazy or something. Can wait to see what tomorrow will bring.
DID YOU KNOW!!!!
Myth #2: Women who are HIV positive will definitely spread the disease to their unborn babies.
Fact: If a woman knows that she is HIV positive early in her pregnancy and receives the right treatment, her chances of spreading the virus to her unborn baby are less than 2 percent in the United States. Without treatment, however, this risk increases to approximately 25 percent.QualityHealth's Medical Advisory Board. (2008, Nov. 20). HIV/AIDS: Myths vs. Reality.

That totally sucks about the egg.. I bought a plastic pink egg.. No boiling or breaking required, and it's close enough to Easter that I was able to get one. I have yet to start carrying mine, and I only have 1 class on Tues. and Thurs. but at least you have a story to tell..

In response to your Did You Know Section, I find it a miracle that a pregnant mother infected with HIV can go through her pregnancy without passing down HIV to her child. I know that when there was little research done before that mothers were passing HIV down to their children. I feel that with the more research done, there will be more prevention methods and techniques such as this. For now, I feel that all pregnant mothers should get tested during there first trimester to get treated as soon as possible if they are infected with the disease. The sooner, the better!
ReplyDeleteI laughed when I saw the comments on your bestiality blog. Sex isn't just heterosexual, homosexual or bisexual, it is a continuum where on one end you have the pure heterosexual person and on the other you have the pure homosexual person and then there is everything in between.
ReplyDeleteI found an interesting site at http://www.xeromag.com/sexmap.html that show the Lands of Human Sexuality. These are all the different things that humans engage in. Should blow some student out of the water.
