On Valentine's Day, three of the nation's leading AIDS organizations will launch LifeLube.org, a Web site that celebrates and promotes gay men's sexual health. The website is the inaugural project of the Sexual Health Xchange, a national partnership of AIDS Action Committee of Massachusetts; AIDS Foundation of Chicago ( AFC ) ; and AIDS Project Los Angeles.
'Launching the Web site on Valentine's Day makes perfect sense since gay sexual health is often reduced to fighting sexually transmitted diseases,' AFC's Jim Pickett said in a statement. 'We want to send the message to gay men that sexual health is so much more than knowing your HIV status. Celebrating our connections and supporting our relationships is what LifeLube.org is all about.'
LifeLube.org provides candid and comprehensive information on sexual health, STD/HIV prevention and care resources, along with explorations of intimacy, communication, spirituality, and other topics of interest to gay men and other men who have sex with men ( MSM ) . The site features interactive blogs, surveys, articles, resources and much more. |
