Im a star bitches!

People have always asked me to do another video. So I finally decided to do one. It is a wonderful song, and I feel I do it justice.
Thanks again for still paying attention to my rants and rambles, and I hope you didn't find the last two posts too preachy.
Have a great day!

I just want to do everything I can

First off, I wanted to extend a huge thank you to whichever reader donated 75 dollars towards my Invisible Children fund to help me reach my goal. I also wanted to thank everyone else who helped volunteer.

I recently found a new organization that I think the Porn industry should really be more informed on, and should be taking about. It is called Hope takes action. Here is a quick link to the website. http://www.hopetakesaction.org/

They are an organization that is doing research and an experimental study on a HIV vaccine. The vaccine is not meant to be something that you take once and then you never have to worry about HIV but with enough research, they can come up with something that can strengthen the immune system so people are less likely to contract the virus.

I must have been naive in Houston, because I did not realize how much of a problem HIV is in the gay community. I have met so many people in Orlando that are infected it kinda makes my head spin.

The worst part about meeting all of these people, is that most of the people that are fully honest about having it and taking the right steps to take care of it are treated like outcasts as if they have the plague.

Now, I understand most people will be uncomfortable having sex with someone who has HIV for multiple reasons but lets think about some things. When you are having sex with someone who has HIV you know how careful you have to be, because you know what to expect. When you are having a random Adam4Adam, Grindr, or likewise sites... You might be more inclined to get a little crazy and do risky behavior that can put you at risk to contract HIV. If you know the person has HIV the boundaries are already set, which to me makes it easier to know what you can and and can't do. This does limit your options on how crazy you get, but sex can still be fun.

I'm the first to admit that as long as a person is upfront and honest with me, I can get over the fact that they have HIV. Am I extra cautious, of course. But to treat people with HIV like they are some freak is just plain rude.

We need to stand as one to show the world that we are no different just because we are gay, whether we have HIV or not.

Life is a crazy hot mess



I know its been almost two months since I updated. I haven't quite got the hang of blogging without someone (aka Logan) hounding me to do it all the time. Life has been crazy busy since I updated and a lot has happened.
Im about to celebrate 2 months of having a boyfriend. We celebrate that on Wednesday. He is really good for me. He accepts my past, and lets me be myself but also challanges is me to think in new ways. There will be more details about him later. ;)
I have really stepped up my game in the hair world and feel I have grown tremendously. Me and my best friend in school entered a school wide fashion competition and our group won best make up! Here are a few photos to give yall a taste of what I looked like.
I just recently started hitting the gym and laying out in the sun in preparation for Gay days 2011 and my birthday. Both of which are the first weekend in June. If you are going to be coming to Gay Days, let me know. I would love to stop in and say hi.
I would like to end this post with making note that if you notice on the side I added a box for donations to an organization called Invisible children. I started doing this fundraiser to do my part in helping out in this world. God knows that I wouldn't be where I am today if people more fortunate than I hadn't stepped in and helped me out, so I am just trying to do my part and pay it forward. If you could think about donating, even if its just a dollar it would really mean a lot to me. You can also either click the link to the right or click this link http://ic.stayclassy.org/member/ic-fundraising?fcid=76092 both will take you right to my page.
And for anyone who is going to ask, yes i put my real name in there, because the blog is no longer about Aiden and the life that was his porn career, but is about the life of a young man trying to figure out what to do with himself after having a crazy couple of growing up years. I'm looking forward to re connecting with all of my readers.
Love you bitches,
G
