Welcome


Welcome to the POZ Community Forums, a round-the-clock discussion area for people with HIV/AIDS, their friends/family/caregivers, and others concerned about HIV/AIDS.  Click on the links below to browse our various forums; scroll down for a glance at the most recent posts; or join in the conversation yourself by registering on the left side of this page.

Privacy Warning:  Please realize that these forums are open to all, and are fully searchable via Google and other search engines. If you are HIV positive and disclose this in our forums, then it is almost the same thing as telling the whole world (or at least the World Wide Web). If this concerns you, then do not use a username or avatar that are self-identifying in any way. We do not allow the deletion of anything you post in these forums, so think before you post.

  • The information shared in these forums, by moderators and members, is designed to complement, not replace, the relationship between an individual and his/her own physician.

  • All members of these forums are, by default, not considered to be licensed medical providers. If otherwise, users must clearly define themselves as such.

  • Forums members must behave at all times with respect and honesty. Posting guidelines, including time-out and banning policies, have been established by the moderators of these forums. Click here for “Do I Have HIV?” posting guidelines. Click here for posting guidelines pertaining to all other POZ community forums.

  • We ask all forums members to provide references for health/medical/scientific information they provide, when it is not a personal experience being discussed. Please provide hyperlinks with full URLs or full citations of published works not available via the Internet. Additionally, all forums members must post information which are true and correct to their knowledge.

  • Product advertisement—including links; banners; editorial content; and clinical trial, study or survey participation—is strictly prohibited by forums members unless permission has been secured from POZ.

But you didn't state whether or not you agree with the fruit, you just posted a link and a situation. We require an analysis, or else we're going to make an assumption about you and your view of talented and tasty fruit.

I agree this is a complete link and run situation.  In the future you should wait until you have the time to elaborate on your views.

OK you lot, here is the deal.

>I made the post to interject a little fun and flavor to the Boards. Many of us do occasionally.

>I thought the ad was clever (with the diverse voice-overs and scenes) and was positively taken by the word Fruit in boldface in the ad as it has legacy meaning (read gay) in addition to being a well known edible.

>I did not want to introduce this personal bias into the discourse (a la Phyllis Richmond "Discuss!").

>I ultimately failed a bit in the point immediately above , however in my view, by including the words "Talented and Tasty".

>In addition, adding a winking emoticon at the end of my post was to connote a bit of mischevious (sic) intent (so much for a picture, however elemental and bare, being worth a thousand words).

>Finally, I enjoyed reading your responses to my post and they made me laugh.

OK Pumpkins, until the next time.

Holla!
