Rub one out once a week and reduce your risk for aids

Australian researchers said Wednesday they have developed a means of producing a "natural condom" which could prevent the spread of AIDS.
The Melbourne researchers said they believe men could reduce their risk of contracting the HIV virus, which causes the deadly disease AIDS, by applying the female hormone, oestrogen, to their penis once a week.

University of Melbourne researcher Professor Roger Short said that use of an oestrogen cream could quadruple the thin layer of the protein keratin on the skin and thereby provide a natural defensive layer.

"You create what you could call a natural condom," Short told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

"You create a biological membrane which the virus can't get through."

Short, a strong advocate of the circumcision of men as a protection against HIV, said he had not yet done tests to prove that the virus was defeated by the keratin cover.

But the researchers said the technique, which does not protect against other sexually transmitted diseases or pregnancy, could provide a cheap and simple method of guarding against HIV around the world.

The research, detailed in the Public Library of Science medical journal PLoS ONE, is expected to be tested in clinical trials in Africa.

Actually, rather than rubbing one out, the current solution would be some quality snuggle time with a female.

I go with the old tried and true 'Don't fuck people with HIV'.

Also, please stop mutilating men's penii. Or bring things up to equal status and start trimming back labia.

Once a week?

If you can tell who has HIV and who does not, can I bring you with me on my next trip to China?

[rattran]

Perhaps you should simply leave the Chinese prostitutes alone for a change.

So, people who presumably either a) do not have any sort of proper sexual eduation, and/or b) cannot get their hands on a box of condoms are going to be heading down to their local Walgreens to get their oestrogen cream subscriptions filled?  Does it come in spray bottle or tub form?  Does it come with a special applicator?

This. And this.

Also,

Once a week?

 

I had a friend say "Well, you're engaged now, you don't need to watch porn anymore." 

[Merusk]

 

Yes, let's avocate and promote not using condoms with HIV infected partners.  That seems the sensible thing to do.

Next we can educate people on how you can douche to avoid pregnancy and that only unclean people get leprosy.

Remind him of that when he gets engaged/married.

Uh, I don't think men rubbing estrogen on their body will have the side-effects most are looking for.  Bad Idea™.

Well....men do love boobies.

[NiX]

Man boobs lack teh perk. They just fold over like when you pour pancake mix into a pan.

[Selby]

Well....men do love boobies.

I don't see men sitting at home and playing with their own boobs.  Usually they enjoy playing with other people's (usually of the female persuasion) boobs...

Oh my fucking god, I am going to throw up now.

[FatuousTwat]

Beat me :(.

[Oban]

No.

Clearly you did not read the article, you are supposed to beat yourself.

[Lantyssa]

Maybe he wants company.

Had I access to You Tube at work, this is where I'd insert the Family Guy skit where Brian and Chris schedule masturbating together later that afternoon.

So, utter quack proposes secondary quack idea with absolutely no evidence to back it up?

That's called research in the scientific community, I am sure there is a nice grant for this in it for him.

[MrHat]

This thread about rubbing it needs more rubbing materials.

But does he have any frozen crabmeat?

Actually, last I checked, the data indicated circumcision was about as effective as a weak vaccine. I know that one of the studies actually got stopped because the circumcised group was contracting HIV at such a significantly lower rate that it raised ethical questions about continuing.

First world, a condom works better. A condom + partner with modern AIDS drugs and an undectable viral load is even better.

For places like, say, most of Africa -- it beats the "nothing" they're likely to have.

That having been said, the whole "it's a great idea even if I've totally not even tested to see if this thing works" bit is a pretty sure sign that guy's personally a quack.

[Azaroth]

So... all you need is to... add a weird layer of skin to your dick with an estrogen cream.... and even then you'll probably still get aids, but...

Ah, science. Figuring out the easiest, shittiest, and least effective way to compensate for a complete and utter lack of common sense ("Hey, that Chinese hooker seems to be crawling with lice. And she's wearing a paper sack. Well, I have this milky way wrapper...") for fun and profit since... when did they switch from magic to science?

You know, I'm not sure. Someone invent a cream to replace books, please.

[Oban]

Holy crap, what store sells Milky Way bars in China? 

[Murgos]

Holy crap, what store sells Milky Way bars in China? 

Deciding whether or not to bring condoms on your next visit?

[Oban]

A box of Milky Way bars is so much easier to explain.
