| MR_UNDASTOOD says: For a small segment of society it does. |
| Rdick says: Yes. It's still not a comfortable subject and such mass communication of this issue, although appreciated, is intimidating. However, I thank the producers and visionaries of such productions for raising the awareness. I KNOW. DO YOU???? (can tha brotha that was singing and rappin give me his numba. he is sexy. trust me, i know.) |
| Tray says: Im Hiv negative,and I agree what that message. Trust me! I know!!! |
| Ron says: yeah i think that ads do help people when it comes to hiv. |
| GMONEY says: NO BROTHERS SEE DA ADS 20 TIMES A DAY WRAP IT UP. BUT THEY STILL GET DRUNK, HIGH OR JUST HORNY AND GO WITH THE FLOW AND GO IN BAREBACK AND WIT ALOT OF THEESE PEOPLE WHO JUST WANT A N** WILL BAREBACK YOU AND EVERYONE AND ANYONE ELSE WHO WANNA F*** |
| Da Site Administrator says: GMONEY, Why do you think brothers are so immuned to these ads? What would be a better way to get brothers to protect themselves....nice pic by the way. Mike |
| John says: No, becaust they are still afraid of what people think when they doint it with another man. I just wrap up |
| Anonymous says: yes! they see it! |
| Ramses says: I believe it does make a diffrence. But it is gonna take more then Ads. It is gonna take our black churches first stopping the homophobia, second honestly talking about the issue and not pointing fingers. Cause this is not a gay thing it is wipeing out our black community, so its a coummunity issue. |

| JerZhotboi says: Yo, it's like dis'..... ya can't use that DL BuLLShYT as an excuse of not wearin a condom.... and they dont be worryin what others thinkin cause they fuggin another man...they thinkin bout gettin dat NUTT!!! And Ramses, this aint jus a BLACK issue babyboi, it is a WORLD ISSUE!!! Black, White, Latino, whateva..... HIV/AIDS don't care!!!!! |
| Anonymous says: No. I wish that I could say that it does but I can't. We as black men need to start educating ourselves about this diease and other out there. We need to start getting tested before you lay down with each other. Please my brothers stop using that tired old line that I can't feel anything when I were a condom. This is life and death that we are talking about. |
| Ghost says: No not really but im with what gmoney said |
| Drac says: Love Life and always protect yourself. It does matter and casual sex is stupid and mostly for the ones that are not sure of themselves. |
| Mark says: From my personal perspective NO!! People are pretty much have made their minds up when it comes to sex. It is what it is !!! |
| Robert says: Well tell you the true it all depend on that person i mean yes Protecting your self from HIV or AIDS its really up to them on how they want to protected there self from it but there are some people who Lie about that they dont have HIV or AIDS and some people trust that other person who say i am clean i dont have it. But the way i see its really up to me on how i want to Protect my self from it and that mean take care of my self and trust that if i want to stay clean and keep my self clean i am going to Rap it up and Protect my self. |
| Brian says: unless one live under a rock. but i believe by now every one heard of hiv or know some who have hiv i heard one black said he dont believe in puttin a baloon on his dick and yet he said i dont do bath houses because they are infested with hiv alot of people know stds out there but still refused use the only form of protection we have to prevent the spread std. gay blk men still posting ads for raw sex parties.there is a ignorance going on in society .if u are circumcised its an all clean.its harder to spread anything.and the finger of blame pointed to uncircumcised brothas. |
| Jersey Boy says: I have been positive for about 5 yrs now and most the guys I spend time with NEVER say one word about a condom. I can't blame a soul but myself for having it. Don't point fingers because someone does not tell you. You are a grown A man!! I rap it up because I can get reinfected. This is your life... RAP THAT SHIT UP!! |
| Johnny says: I wanna know is that why do folks watch BET for videos but not listen to their campaign to Rap it up. RAP IT UP!!! IT saves lives |
| SOBIHAN says: It does not make a difference. I don't think there is any form of communication that could reach these orgasm driven individuals. It's sad but true. It takes the individual to understand the importance themselves. It doesn't matter if the preacher, teacher, mentor, entertainer, or friend tells them. It's all about understanding the importance yourself. Unfortunately, in the pursuit of a nut many won't get it until they start coughing up blood. (sad but true).....[protect yourselves NOW fellas] |
| Missy-The-Tranny says: yes it does |

| Anonymous says: I truly rhink that a person should love both or should I say everyone REMBER WE DIDNOT MAKE OUD SELVES |
| Thisazzhot says: I don't think that they do. I feel that it has to come from self-love. If you live yourself enough, then you're not going to let a sexy body put you at risk. Therefore, I feel that if we promote self respect and start teaching our young black brothers to love themselves, then eventually, they will love thmeselves to protect themselves at all cost at all times. |

| Anonymous says: Hey... This message is powerful and the music is tight! Because the Down Low is becoming increasingly popular we need constant reminders to keep us focused on being healthy... 1 hot moment can be life altering... |

| Anonymous says: I really don't think so. I have met countless brothers that will tell me that they are HIV - and when we get together I would bring condoms and lube and tell then long before we even get to the point of kissing and foreplay that I am what is called a Nonprogressor and that I am HIV + and most of the time they will try to act like they never heard what I said and then will call me again and again and each time i will remind then that is the case adn only one has acted like he never understood that from the beginning but he stills is calling me to get me to mess around again and all have just started doing it with out the condom even though they know that the rubbers are there |
| Anonymous says: Some yes for the other hardcore if aint nothing type of guys need to take a trip to HOPE HOSPIST this is a center were people when thay are on their dieing bed. WAKE UP MEN! That 2 - 10 minute sex,4 play, cum in my ass shit feels good for the minues that it last. Now was about the long term. If he cant respect himself to wear the gear then he aint going to respect you either. My bruthas welcome to AIDS. Get tested! its better to know about your status and get help. Then not know and die wondering. peace out, Jay |
| Mr. Robert T. Montgomery says: i think it does, iam a single black male 58 yrs old and i get tested ever so often and i have nothing!!!! its free! so why not!!! everyone should be down at their local health clinic getting tested for their own piece of mind!!!!! mr robert t. m. |
| Jeremy Thomas says: i like this and i hope i could find a man |
| Mike says: I think it all comes down to personal responsibility. I think it's important to put the message out there, but as influential as music and media are, in the end, they are limited. While I have friends who are HIV positive, I'll admit that I haven't always had safe sex every time. I can only say the reason I didn't is because I didn't insist on it further. |
| Tye says: when I have sex with other men ( down Low men), have safe sex, Because they would have too ,for the simple fact they are married or have a girl, I only mess with down low thugs, men. So they have to keep a coat on it. |
| MatureBlk says: I need to clarify a point that one brother posted here on the site. He stated that "if you're circumcised, its all clean, which points to the uncircumcised brothers who are spreading the virus". Brother, you could NOT be further from wrong. The Virus does not live outside of our bodies. It also does not reside underneath the glans penis of an uncircumcised man. An uncircumcised man, who keeps his dick clean, is no more unsafe than any other individual, so stop spreading ignorance. Research indicates that the principle mode of transmission is dick-anal penetration. Too many brothers who think they must tear up a brother's insides by ramming and jamming his guts, is likely to tear and rupture the soft tissues of the colon and intestinal walls. STDs such as herpes, gonorrhea, syphillis, Chlamydia are all easily transmissible as much as is the HIV virus when one does not use condoms. But remember, one can tansmit these diseases with a cut dick as well as with an uncut dick. Stop the ignorance about this stuff brothers and wake up. Clean it up, Wrap it up, Straighten it up, and learn to have sex without penetration more. It is far safer brothers. |

| Anonymous says: Un fortunatly NOT. A lot of the ads are for the new med that are prolonging peoples lives,( which is a good thing) however I think people are taking the ads wrong. Yeah were living longer, but don't forget we (and by we I mean ME) still are living with this thing and some days its' not fun taking these meds. I am noticing that because AIDS is not talked about like it was like (4 )years ago people have this attitude of out of site out on mind. As a result more and more bruthas are NOT using condoms and testing positive these days. I would like to see more ads talking about the new rates of this virus, because we are now lacking the information on a large scale like in the past. KEEP YOURSELVES SAFE FELLA'S. ONE LUV. |

HIV is like abusing life. God Bless every one. This site has some brothers who are redefining black masculinity and manhood and I am proud of you all. I am not black but just here to show love. take care |
| Longstroking says: i think it does we have to listen because we must protect the woods. |
| Wdennis says: I believe that it does make a difference for some people. However, we have to understand that there is still that group of folks who are undercover, who is getting high, drunk and just going with the flow. There is something about being high on weed and having sex, who is thinking about putting on condom when your mind has been effected by drugs. I am not making excuses for anyone, but I believe what I am saying is true. |

IT CONCERNS ME BECAUSE SO MANY PEOPLE HARP ON POSITIVE BROTHERS LIKE NOW THEY JUST GOING TO NOT LIKE SEX OR HOOK UP. YES IT WOULD BE GREAT TO BE TRUTHFUL BUT REJECTION IS A BITCH AND SEX IS A POWERFUL THING IT CAN MAKE PEOPLE KILL ONE ANOTHER, BUT SIMPLE FACT IS BROTHERS NEED TO REDUCE THEIR PARTNERS AND TEST MORE OFTEN OR SIMPLY STAY AWAY FROM PLACES THAT BREEDS DISHONEST- BOOKSTORES, CHATLINES, ETC |
