Especially if you are a trans woman and you are having sex, you should get on PrEP. Or a twink, I will say. Thank you.

Yeah, well, it's ingrained in a lot of places, but there's places where it isn't. And those places are where things go very, very bad very quickly, which is why, obviously, they're eliminating the fucking research for this, because they want to fucking kill queer people.
