Safer sex has stopped millions of us around the world from getting or passing on HIV.

Most of us use condoms most of the time. Sometimes we don’t, thinking what we’re doing isn’t so risky. That’s when HIV makes its move – as over 2,000 gay and bisexual men find out each year when they’re diagnosed with HIV.

Although sex can never be totally risk-free, you can decide what level of risk you’re happy with. This booklet gives you facts about what makes sex less or more risky.
