I don’t know why they are thinking this is crazy, lol I work in a prison and unfortunately hiv/aids is 60% of the population and assault on female officers is not rare. So yeah going on a prevention medication is not crazy.

I think taking PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis) is better, in the event you are assaulted. It’s done after exposure, as the name suggests, but must be done in the next 48-72 hours

Not on prep but here to say good for you. Don’t take the risk, and ignore the assholes. Better to be safe than sorry <3

I take PrEP and have a supply of PEP as well!

I would say you don’t need PrEP unless you’re having sex with an individual living with HIV. If something does happen to you and you’re exposed, you can take PEP, but I would say the side effects of PrEP don’t outweigh the risks for the situation you’ve given

Why would flying to different places be that risky? Unless you’re flying in and going to some shady places. But yeah, I think if that is the case, you may look into carrying some self-defense weapons.
