SEROSORTING is having
sex with your own HIV status. HOWEVER, Serosorting is MORE, it is the cornerstone and end result of the concept of HIV Prevention today - Serosorting is your Freedom of Choice to choose your
sex partners.
* You cannot SEROSORT (have
sex with your own HIV status) unless you first know your HIV status, therefore, SEROSORTING promotes getting tested for HIV.
* Getting tested for HIV is a benefit that supports HIV Prevention and SEROSORTING is a Self-Improvement Strategy.
* You cannot SEROSORT unless you understand your role / responsibility to yourself, your sex partner(s) and
society as a whole - SEROSORTING Is Social Responsibility.
* You cannot SEROSORT unless you communicate your HIV status to others (
friends, sex partner(s) and strangers), thus, SEROSORTING is an HIV Prevention Communication Tool.
* When you get tested for HIV, understand your responsibility of your HIV status and communicate your HIV status to others (status disclosure), you automatically protect yourself from possible legal issues. You are protecting HIV-negative sex partner(s) from getting infected or you will be protecting HIV+ sex partner(s) from prosecution. SEROSORTING means Legal Protection. Just ask the
Gay Bareback Porn Industry worldwide.
* SEROSORTING is
RESPECT not discrimination or
hate. Respecting someone's HIV status and choosing not to get infected or not infecting someone is
RESPECT not stigma. SEROSORTING means
RESPECT.
For HIV-negative Serosorters:
1) When HIV-negative people have SAFE
SEX with other HIV-negative people (this is called HIV-negative SAFE
SEX SEROSORTING), no one gets infected with HIV.
2) When HIV-negative people have UNSAFE
SEX with other HIV-negative people, (this is called HIV-negative SEROSORTING) no one gets infected with HIV.
For HIV+ Serosorters:
3) When HIV+ people have SAFE
SEX with other HIV+ people, (this is called HIV+ SAFE
SEX SEROSORTING) no HIV-negative person gets infected with HIV.
4) When HIV+ people have UNSAFE
SEX with other HIV+, (this is called SEROSORTING) no HIV-negative person gets infected with HIV.
