Having many sexual partners at the same time really increases your chances of getting HIV.

Why?

It's like a computer virus. When one computer gets it, it spreads really fast on a network. HIV is just like that, especially because you are most infectious when you've just got it (and don't even know). Remember that unprotected sex means you're having sex with all current and previous sexual partners of the person you having sex with.

But I want good sex

You can have it! Communicate with your partner about your needs and what turns you on. That way you build your relationship and a good sex life. Ya, it's work. But think about it: the work of living with HIV is way more than putting a little effort into your sex life.

But men need it

Some say 'men can't control themselves and need lots of partners'. Rubbish! Most men are happy with 1 partner. It's a matter of choice – you choose how you want to live your life. Men are not animals - they control their sexual urges all the time.
