HIV+ : Gay & Black Glossary

HIV+
carrying the HIV (Human Imumuno-deficiency Virus) in the bloodstream. HIV is believed to be the major cause of AIDS (Acquired Immuno-Deficiency Syndrome). When you get a positive result on your HIV test, it is not something to celebrate, since it means you are infected. HIV is passed most commonly by screwing/being screwed without a condom or via needles. Very rarely it is passed by oral sex, and only then when there are bleeding gums.
