Don't ask, don't tell.

No one wants to hear that you're HIV+. They're afraid, they're scared, they're disgusted, whatever.

It's much more fun to assume that everyone is HIV-. No worries or responsibilities ... or reality.

"Don't ask, don't tell." hasn't worked for the military and it doesn't work here either.

Ask.

    Tell.

        Talk about it.

                Deal with it.

It's the only way things are going to get better.
