Monkey Pox Outbreak Reveals Political Overtones & Stigma
"All stigmatized, but this is really strange now because now there's this monkey pox outbreak again and the administration all of a sudden has a different take towards this monkey pox pathogen because there might be some political overtones to this. All of a sudden the same administration that wanted people fired, wanted people people terminated from their jobs, wanted people flagged for disinformation, banned from social media, the same the administration that all they cared about was stigmatizing people under a public health crisis banner. now that we're in another public health crisis with monkey pox. It's so strange if they don't know you have monkey pox no quarantine or nothing you just go and do you. Wow sounds like it's all politics. Here listen yourself check this out HIV normally and I'll tell you that you know I always say that I've never made an HIV diagnosis in someone that hasn't somehow related to stigma. I think mpox is the same so really stigma tends to be a barrier to testing a barrier to vaccination and so you know really addressing stigma intentionally and making sure that we get the word out in a way that supports people's joy as opposed to you know calling them risky so I think you know one of the things think to about is that you know one person's idea of risk is another person's idea of a great festival or Friday night for that matter so we have to sort of embrace that with joy and make sure that folks know how to keep themselves safe oh so now embrace your life with joy and just figure out how to stay safe but don't stigmatize people you understand it was the exact opposite with COVID right

Revolutionizing STEM Education for Girls in Nigeria With Chinwe Nkiru
"I understand that you and your mother run a SheForCE theme project in schools in Nigeria. Can you tell us a little bit about it, please? Okay, thank you very much for that. The program is actually an initiative of my NGO, like you rightly said, Flourish Life International. So that is the mother umbrella. The SheForCE theme is an initiative of my NGO. We are also into women development, so this is the girl aspect of it. You know, we just commemorated International Women's Day. Can you hear me, please? I can hear you loud and clear. Yeah, so the theme of this year's International Women's Day is digit all. So, innovation, including innovation and technology as a tool towards promoting girls in their career, critical thinking and being the better self of them tomorrow. So, it was actually born of the passion of myself being a STEM or STEAM career person. I'm actually a medical lab scientist. I think that's the one you missed out. I'm a lab scientist. Apologies. Yeah, I'm a medical lab scientist and I'm in running a partnership program with Viral Hypotitis Association of Nigeria. I've also worked with the United States Department of Defense, HIV Reference Lab. So, I got to know a little bit of how the US and in general their education system works. In my little understanding, I will say I'm yet to explore more. So, this vision, she first team is actually to like their motor goals, inspire. So, the first aspect of it is actually to initiate this desire, this like oh wow kind of sentiment into this girl. So, that they see women like us, I'm a medical person, right? I'm also a STEM in STEM career. So, they see okay this is what the future holds for me if I go for a STEAM career. So, we inspire. So, the next is now is to include. That's the inclusion we are talking about in the inclusion diversity and the equity model being used in addressing this. So, we include them. How? Because we have created the first stage of inspiration. Because for me, for you to have brought me to this platform, I believe you inspired me on what you're doing so far in in touch. So, that's what inspired me to come to this program I attend, right? So, that's the same way we teach that output to these girls to inspire them. Okay, these are the STEM careers. This is what you'll be tomorrow. This is the future while we are trying to encourage you to be a STEM education or a STEM career person in the future. That's the second stage include. Then the last one is, which is not the least, is innovate. How do we mean by innovate? We try to make them have hands -on. Because once you finish talking, there's no particularity, no hands -on, you've not done much. So, the innovation aspect is actually the broadest aspect of the vision. Because it's going to be more interactive in the sense of there has to be like a STEM club, there's got to be like a STEM hub. I'm just trying to, I've already started explaining the project, if you can permit me. So, there's going to be the hub. So, in this hub set up in the schools, right now, we already have one, like I told you with my mom's school there in Ann Arbor State, Oka. We already have one and every break time they gather together. So, they have this, all this computer and STEM gadget, if I could say. So, the short term goal is actually what we've already started with. That's the inspiration. Inspiration that went to the schools and creating the platform awareness kind of sensitization. And right now, we've already collected names of schools that are mostly underserved communities

"And so it's exciting to see that sort of what HIV has provided to the world is now coming back to HIV, the COVID experience, the mRNA experience. We've heard from colleagues from yahweh about this as well. I think that there are scientific challenges. HIV is a tricky virus. There's different kinds of immune responses that are needed to control it. So I think that the vaccine machine is in the right place to sort of move forward. And I think it's a space to watch. I wish I had a crystal ball and could tell you how soon we would have one, but I think that advances in immunology are getting rapid again, so I think that we have a really good shot. We are not there yet, but I think that the energy is in the right place to move this forward. And in the minute that we have low in your view, which cities are taking the best approach to ending HIV, aids, or coming up with the most innovative ways to support people living with HIV. Not just because I'm sitting in D.C., but I really think that I love all of our grantees. So I'll start by that and saying like, every city has really, really great strategies. But some of the cities that have sort of shifted their portfolio into this status neutral space where it's service delivery based on what people need as opposed to simply their HIV status, D.C., New York City, Chicago, San Francisco, like the places that are really epicenters for HIV have really been great examples. But I think that there are also some fantastic rural examples like Kentucky that's done really innovative telemedicine. And all of these other strategies to end HIV that's appropriate for their contacts. So I've listed some of the ones that are sort of highlights for me, but I'll say that we've seen so much great work across the country. That we need to keep those lessons and learn them not only for what we do here, but also what we do internationally, because I'll also say international examples out there are important to us, like pepfar, I think we're getting sort of bidirectional inspiration from each other. Like some of our ideas are moving into the international space and some of the great ideas we're pulling into what we're doing every day in the U.S.. Okay, since we're already out of time, keep it pepfar in the lessons of pepfar in the United States. Give an example. Yeah, I think that from the perspective, their amazing ability to understand what their countries are doing from the perspective of data and using that data in real time to address changes in their programming is perhaps my number one most inspirational thing that I hear from them. I think for us, I think our status neutral service delivery model are syndemic focus, which includes both communicable and non communicable diseases is something that they're very inspired by. So such great conversations, I think empaths help that as well. But so many great interactions and conversations about how we can inspire more excellence, both internationally and domestically is really exciting. All right, one more question. Okay. Are you going back to the CDC? My intention is to go back to the CDC. I think that we're just sort of dealing with what transition looks like. But that's the goal.

"Epidemiology where cases of HIV and incidence of HIV decreased once that funding landed into really service providers. Same for the United States. I think we have in the president's budget, great opportunities. There was an opportunity for a national pre exposure prophylaxis program that didn't get sort of realized in Congress. There is ending the HIV epidemic, which is not fully realized in terms of its funding. So I think that public health resources are critical for public health success. And so really looking at ways that we can get the attention of folks in building in certain buildings with domes to remind them that HIV prevention is critical and it saves hundreds of millions of dollars. Lifetime cost of someone living with HIV is $500,000. If you prevent that infection, you save $500,000. And so it's very often cost effective, at least, if not cost savings, to do the work to prevent HIV. And that's really what's behind all of the work. It's about really making sure that people's health is good, but actually it is cost effective. It is a financial intervention. So if folks can hear that, an investment in HIV goes a long way. That's an interesting that's a good message. I can imagine that it will land on certain ears in that building with the dome quite well. In the three minutes that we have left, I want to try to get through a bunch of things. How close are we to achieving the global goal to end HIV aids by 2030? Reference prior statement. So if appropriately resourced, we have the technology to be able to get us to a place of really good HIV control. We need an HIV vaccine. So period. No matter what. So I think that at this point, I think it is aspirational for us to achieve the goals by 2030 for a couple of reasons. One, not adequately resource, which we talked about. And two, COVID. I think we will have sort of aftershocks of COVID for a while, like HIV diagnosis rate will increase because folks have not been diagnosed because of some care interruptions that happen during COVID, not diagnosing people with HIV during COVID also means that they weren't aware of their status. And may not have got an antiretroviral medication so they could potentially pass the infection forward. So I think that we're going to have a tall order to achieve the goal by 2030. We're all trying our best to get there, but resources are needed. Then how close are we to an HIV vaccine? Scientifically. Yeah, I mean, I think that we're so much of what we know about immunology has come from HIV.

"To your Friday night. Because everyone reacted to that. And I think with good reason for a lot of people, that Friday night was a fun time. Totally. So then how do you talk to that person? Yeah. How do you get them to come through the door and see, what's the language? Is what I'm getting. Yeah, I mean, I think first is and I think we heard before, like every piece of the service interaction needs to be about affirming people's lives. As we sit here and there are attacks happening on LGBTQ people, that is bad HIV prevention, right? So things that prevent transgender health. Things that prevent health LGBTQ people, things that prevent health for women of color, including deeper issues around reproductive health, all of those things are going to increase HIV rates. So the very important thing is that the service environment needs to be conducive to people walking in the door. So it's not how we want to deliver service. It's how people want those services delivered, that needs to be the focus. And we're not done. So we have to sort of, we have to sort of step back and listen to the community and listen to the folks that we serve and not say we're going to build this and they come, but rather say, how can we make what we build more amenable to people coming to us and how can we reach them where they are? And so I feel like a lot of the stigma conversation has to do with the fact that there are institutional factors that maintain systems of stigma within HIV that need to be disrupted. And reality is it's work to disrupt them, blending funding, sort of CDC funding and hearse of funding in a way to create a door that everyone can walk through and get the services they need and also that every door leads to the services they need as well is a really important strategy. And so really looking at the way that we deliver care and deliver service, we need to be critical and we need to say just because it's worked for the 86% of people who know their HIV status, the 65% of people who are virally suppressed in the U.S., how do we get to the 15, 16% that don't know their status who aren't going to come to the care services we provided and how can we get to the people who are living with HIV who are not antiretroviral medicines to get them on medicines. So it's good for their own health and also prevents transmission. U equals U which we heard about before. And it really requires folks to step back. There's work to be done to blend funding like D.C. has done as an example is work and clover could talk to you about that more if you're on stage. But it's work, but that work has benefits. You see benefits in viral suppression. You see benefits in quality of light that people sort of encounter when they come into services. So I think that there's lots of ways to think about disrupting stigma. I'm going to say one more thing before the next thing is very important. So we often look at public health as a way

"Today about HIV vaccine. We don't have one yet. We do have an impact vaccine, which we should talk about as a dress rehearsal for the HIV vaccine because the same equity issues that we saw in epox vaccination are inevitable in HIV vaccine unless we work as clover said earlier today to actually address sort of trust and prevention services for people with a clear awareness on equity. So we're definitely making progress. And we need to hustle on vaccine for empower because spring and summer are coming. And that's tends to be when people have more interactions that could lead to empower exposure. So really working to create that immune force field that we need with vaccine needs to happen now. So then what are you learning from the empaths response that might impact the response to HIV and other infectious diseases? I know you just said this is the dress rehearsal in terms of a vaccine for HIV in terms of equity. But talk about scientifically, are you learning things dealing with empaths that are instructive for coming up with an HIV vaccine? Sure. Well, I'll start by talking about what we've learned from the behavioral science. I think that that's really important. So the first is that if you provide people information in a way that they understand, they actually take you up on what you've told them to do. So I think that is an example where we've been very clear in messaging, talking about sex, talking about sexual health, and the result is that populations actually change their behaviors for a while as we ramped up vaccination. So that, I think, is probably one of the most instructive lessons. Not only for how we should message better in HIV prevention, but also in how we're going to need to message when we have an effective HIV vaccine. I think vaccines on the shelf don't really prevent diseases. They have to go into people's arms. But before they go into people's arms, you have to get into people's heads and hearts. And I think that we really have a lot of work to do to make sure that we sort of set the runway. Appropriately so we can land an HIV prevention plane with the vaccine when we have it. Because right now that runway is full of obstacles and most of them are equity related. In terms of just general science, I think that the study that you talked about is I think is very instructive, which is that none of these infections live in isolation. HIV does not live in isolation. It interacts with viral hepatitis. It interacts with challenges to people's mental health. It interacts with substance use, it interacts with social determinants like housing, racism, sexism, homophobia, all of those things.

"Virus once in your lifetime you'll never get it again because your response is so strong. HIV HIV was the first one that really turned that off in a very big way taught us all this new capability of a natural virus, which is to suppress the immune response. But I think if you look if you look now that the fact that you can get SARS CoV-2 and then 6 months later you can get it again and 6 months later you can get it again. This pattern is part of the hallmark of this kind of behavior. Gotcha. All right, I mean, I think I got you on that one. So it looks like they studied the HIV in terms of how to turn off that immune response and use that coding to create the SARS CoV-2. Does that make more sense? I would say it a little bit differently because I'm stuck with being a nerdy scientist. But so there's no similarity between the protein in SARS and that same function in HIV. The properties are the same. So for three or four years, let's talk at 2015, 2018. One instance of biology was studying this protein called OR FF 8. Which is the one that goes into the bloodstream and turns this off. They were studying it. There's a PhD thesis in Chinese are the scientists to spend their whole PhD just focusing on this one protein. That does this very unusual thing of turning down the immune system. So they use the observation of what HIV did and then they translated into a coronavirus form. All right, that makes more sense. Not too nerdy at all. All right folks,

But I remember that that was, but they even scolded and chastised Joe Biden when Joe Biden remember was at the outbreak of Was it H one n one. Or remember that where Joe Biden went and said, Don't fly on planes. It's recycled there And then, Um, Obama's press secretary, Jay Carney, comes out here. Then they actually made him look like it is there like, please don't listen to the vice president. He's a moron, all right. They didn't say that. Exactly. But trust me, that's exactly what they were saying. No, I'm serious. I know this is hard to digest now, because you're like, Wait. Now it's completely different. Biden and everybody else Where a mask. Fauci panic all the time. The media we gotta panic. Everybody is dying, right? You can't even remember a time with Ebola and H one n one and even HIV back in the eighties, I was alive for that. So it's Jim. So it was Mike. I remember that was a virus with a 100% fatality rate back then. One of everybody who got it essentially died. Coronavirus for healthy young people has like a 1 to 2% tops for younger folks. Fatality rate HIV had a 100% fatality rate. And in the beginning, nobody knew how it was spread. It took a while for them to figure it out. It was sexually transmitted And folks even back then the panic wasn't like it is now. Think about that at 100% fatality rate. I remember

"hiv" Discussed on Science Friday
"Friday my reflejo where continuing our conversation with dr anthony. Fauci about forty years of hiv and aids in the us. How much we've learned. How much is is still unknown about the illness that was so frightening for decades ago. I wanna play a clip from another science friday. Show twenty six years ago back in nineteen ninety five. You're on the show with bob. Gallo who code discovered that hiv was the virus responsible for aids. And in this show. We talked about the latest. Hiv aids treatments that had been discovered and discussed all the things. We still don't know about the virus. This was twenty six years ago. And i brought up the point that it seemed like. There's a lot we don't know about the human immunity system and how hiv plays into it compared to how much we know about other systems in the body. And that got some pushback from both of you. Pop gallo does this mean we really don't understand the human the human immunity system that well very often scientists will say we don't know anything we don't know much we're just scratching the surface. I feel on a relative scale. We quite a bit about hiv relative to other viruses. And i think the field of is rather well developed field However you can you can make the argument away way. Somebody says we know nothing. You can argue. That's ridiculous so you can say we know an awful lot say the same thing but being more i'd rather punt that right to dr fauci took issue with with the with the point that was made that we know everything about all other other systems but we don't know much about the immune system. I disagree strongly with that. I mean if you look at the neurological system which we know a lot. There are more mysteries in the neurological system. Then you could even imagine and the endocrine system variety of systems. I don't think the immune system is any much further off in the amount we understand. Don't understand. I think the point that made is a very good point and i think that's the reason there's a lot of confusion. We know an awful lot about hiv. We know how the virus works. We know how the virus destroys the body's immune system but we don't know everything and that's the reason why the kinds of discoveries that was made by bob and others most recently adds more to the store of knowledge but to say that we know very very little about it i think is is is over exaggerating or to say that we know everything is certainly on naive. Oversimplification with making step-by-step progress. There's a ways to go but we do know an awful lot about it. First of all dr fauci. It's great to be reminded that you've been a straight talker for all of these years and not afraid to speak your mind of in hindsight. Did we know a lot about hiv at this time. Yes we did know an awful lot about at one of the things that the as the years went by ira that really was i say A little bit disturbing if not quite disturbing. Was that the full realization. That when you present the antigen and the form of an envelope trimmer or on whatever mechanism you're using in your vaccine platform that the body doesn't make broadly neutralizing antibody and when you have a virus. That continually mutates and changes because of the pressure of the immune system. That you've gotta get anybody's that are broadly neutralizing to all rations of the virus when you get a disease like measles. Measles doesn't change a heck of a lot over decades much less within a person over a period of months to years. So that's why you just need anybody's against the appropriate component of the virus to block it. That was the thing that we still don't know yet. Ira exactly how to induce broadly neutralizing antibodies against hiv. Our getting any closer. We are. And i think we're getting closer because we're using very sophisticated technology of structure based vaccine design whereby using cry electron microscopy and looking at the right confirmation. That would in fact trigger the b. cell lineage. So that you can actually trigger the appropriate lineages to coax it along to get to the point of making broadly neutralizing antibodies. That might require an approach. Back sinology that we've never had to do before is to give sequentially immunizations with a modified form of the image in to continue the path to broadly neutralizing antibodies. So you're saying Just constantly giving people booster shots. Well yeah sorta i mean. Version of a booster shot. Will you bring it to one point of differentiation. And then you bring it to the next so that you get to the point where you really do have broadly neutralizing antibodies. And how far along are you on this. How are they going to be human trials on this. I believe so. I mean there are certainly the only human trials that have gone to face. Three are the ones that are not going. After broadly neutralizing antibodies that are going after other types of immune responses. But the ones that are going to be going for the broad neutralizing antibodies are in phase one trial and hopefully when we get enough information. Proceed to face to way to be. And then ultimately the face three compared to forty years ago our collective worry about hiv aids has largely down of course put. It hasn't gone away. I mean i want to cite a two thousand nineteen report where more than half of new hiv diagnoses in the. Us happened in southern states. And of those african american men made up a disproportionate number of those cases. How did this dramatic demographic shift happen. Well it happened. I believe because of the accessibility of counseling accessibility to crap accessibility to.

So we're not we're not going to send probes down to the surface with a rover and like we've done on mars right that's right. It's a really difficult planet. Descended over to the other has been spacecraft of winning on surfaced before because of the heat the conditions there the spacecraft didn't last very long only less than two hours actually so we are sending missions to venus. But yeah won't be. It won't be a rover mission like we did with mars because we're really interested in those mysterious clouds and there were there were hints recently that there might be life in there somehow right. We have a lot of questions about venus's atmosphere also the surface of venus and so these two missions the first is called davinci and that's spacecraft. That will care shoot down to the surface of venus and take measurements in images in study the composition of its atmosphere on the way down. Either were there was a publication last year that scientists in which scientists claimed that they might have found traces of life in the atmosphere around venus and those results have since been contested. It's not really clear if that's the case but that study will help us determine you know kind of once fall whether that that's possible and then the second mission very toss that's an that's gonna move around the planet and use radar to map the terrain and the elevations of venus's surface and use infrared to figure out what kind of rocks are down there. And whether they're still volcanic activity on venus right. That's great there's a there's other cool space news.

"Addition to that if an individual does not know their status than they wouldn't be able to get on preventative medications like rap and the reason for that is because we have to know that an individual actually has a non reactive where negative hiv test in order to be able to prescribe rap. That's because prep itself is not a complete Retroviral therapy for a patient. So we really need know that patience. Hiv status in order to be able to determine what preventative methods. They can take when it comes to protecting themselves. And so i really believe that. Hiv testing and get getting the word out about hiv. Testing is so critically important. Why walgreens we've had such a focus on on especially in our partnership with kaiser family foundation greater than aids every year trying to do what we can to increase access to nasty to Hiv testing on national hiv s. Today the partnership that we've been apart for the past eleven years and one that really think that it's a great way to increase education around the orton's of hiv test knowing that again at in knowing your hiv status allows you to have the power to take action essentially protect yourself or to get yourself in treatment and of course. People don't have to wait until june for national hiv testing day. Certainly you know as you underscore that alarming number one in seven who are unaware of our status. It's really a reminder to go and get tested and so that's the very first step and if you are once you get tested Or if you already do know your status. Because i know a lot of listeners. Very responsible about sti testing When and who should consider prep now. I know that folks can walk into any walgreens pharmacy and asked to speak privately to a pharmacist. I know you offer private rooms for that. I know that of course people have been hearing me say that they can go to walgreens dot com slash p. r. e. p. to learn more. But let's talk about that now. Who who and..

"I say that it's complex is because if an individual is on. hiv treatments pagent living with hiv. That's actually on antiretroviral therapy than that. Patients may actually never progress into aids. things that we've seen recently through various different campaigns you equals you are treatment as prevention is one of those. Is that a patient living with hiv. That has their viral load. Suppressed through antiretroviral therapy. Then that patients will have a will not be able to transmit hiv to another individual and their viral load also suppressed so much so that the virus is not replicating within their their immune system any longer therefore they won't progress to aids now if an individual is not into treatment then you will have more likely to progress into aids but again complex nature of that. Question's really around whether or not a patient is on treatment or in treatment and then how that can actually protect that individual. I guess we have to talk about some of the factors that support people in getting on treatment right and this would be related to access to income to you know even just access to information and so when you talk about treatment as prevention. I'd like to chat about that. Because ten years ago when i was working with aids service organizations that was relatively new language. And so can you explain what that means getting the viral load so low that it's not transmittable. Is that a zero viral load. Is that an undetectable viral load. What does that look like. So the viral load meaning the level of virus. I presume it's at in. Is it in serum is it in. How are you testing it. It is a very good question. When i was talking about a lot of progresses made. That's been one of the areas that there has been a lot of progress so one of the things that we know now. Is that if a patient is on antiretroviral therapy their viral load is suppressed. It doesn't have to be at zero. however as it is suppressed that sarum viral load. If it is suppressed enough then that will essentially be. Undetectable on a lab lab exam and so patients that are living with hiv..

Yeah post that in the promo code people. All right. Doctor jess use the code. All right moving on we are going to be talking about our main topic today and that is hiv aids in terms of updates testing treatment prevention and more with pharmacist brad director of specialty health solutions at walgreens. Welcome and thanks so much for joining us today brad. How how are you managing as a pharmacist during this global pandemic so i and hopefully hopefully only of our lifetime you so much. i mean. I'm actually doing pretty well. It's been very interesting time for all of us but as a pharmacist myself it's really been an opportunity for us to in seeing the focus on how we can take care of patients especially when it comes to hiv epidemic in the middle of pandemic. And so it's really allowed us to be creative. And make sure that we really keep patients at the forefront of everything that we're doing as pharmacists now in your current role you oversee walgreens. Hiv treatment and prevention efforts. And you're involved in the trainings that walgreens pharmacy teams undergo in order to provide the compassionate and confidential. Care that you offer at this of course involves a huge range of cultural competencies and dealing with de stigmatization. But i'd like to start from the beginning for folks. I think many of us can use a refresher. I have to say that. Many people in my field actually started in the field of hiv and hiv education and prevention. I did and when. I announced this partnership with walgreens so many people came out and said oh yeah i actually started with an aids service organization so but for many of us. It has been years since we've worked directly with aids service organization. So i'd love to get a refresher and just start right from the beginning if you can talk to us a little bit about what. Hiv is and what aides is. It's quite interesting. It's been a an epidemic at the united states at least has been fighting for about the past forty years though. Hiv itself is human immunodeficiency virus. So it's a virus that attacks the immune system and really tries to that virus tries to replicate and in doing that than it can essentially destroy the immune system while in advanced cases that's when hiv progresses to aids if in fact it's left untreated. And so you know really over the past forty years. We've we've learned a lot. We've learned that. It is something that we can actually end. We can end the ischemic. Various different prevention measures whether it's prep or treatment as prevention. But it's been an interesting journey one that we've made a lot of progress on however it's also a journey that we still have a long ways to go so really making sure that any individual that is currently living with hiv can potentially know their status and then get into treatment and then also individuals that may be at risk for acquiring hiv. That they actually have a way to protect themselves as well on protect their immune system. So when we're talking about hov and e suk-lee it's really a matter of the immune systems and making sure that we can protect them as best as possible so then we can fight off all kinds of other infection now when we differentiate between hiv and aids. What is the likelihood. I don't know if we have this data that a person living with hiv will be diagnosed with aids in the united states. That can be a complex question because part of it's going to be a matter of winning individual actually gets into treatment and the reason..

You mr really jammed it in your as a stroke or and the that pleasure earpieces meant to be up near the top of your penis right so you could just put it there and let it sit there and then orgasm and that would feel great but because i was using it and i just got carried away i had it at the base or further down. I guess yeah i mean. They didn't have the base. But had it further down my penis in like that gave me a very unexpected surprise. That was just like. I don't know how to describe the feeling just because i was orga having an orgasm but it was like in addition to the normal fantastic feeling of having an orgasm. You're also having this pulsing sensation that was happening halfway down your penis so it was very very different. Imagine having an orgasm somebody sucking or playing with halfway down your penis different. It's not something that i think. Most people think when. I when i when i have an orgasm on to pleasure this part of my peanut for me. It was just like a total accident and it was a wonderful accident. Okay so i have a question. Do you feel as though you could leave it. Perfectly still and have an orgasm from the guess stimulation of those receptors on the underside europeans. Or would you always want to move the reason i'm wallet answer. I and i'll tell you. Why masking i mean. I like the idea of using it as a stroke.
