I went to a spa recently, hoping to meet new people, but after an hour, I was still alone. No one initiated a conversation. It hit me hard – It feels like in today's world, if you're not attractive or good-looking, nobody pays attention to you.💔
Hookup culture isn’t the villain in the HIV story.
People have always loved sex…that is a fact of life we have to accept. What makes it risky is not the casual encounters, but the lack of tools, education, and support around them.
🔑 Want to keep HIV rates low? 👉 Normalize condoms 👉 Make PrEP accessible 👉 Encourage regular HIV testing 👉 Push for comprehensive sex ed, not “don’t have sex or you’ll die” lectures 👉 And for the love of all things juicy—stop shaming people for wanting pleasure.
So before you blame "hookup culture" for HIV rates, maybe ask: What systems failed to protect us?
