Things to keep in mind (when attending a Showbiz Gathering)



Things to keep in mind (when attending a Showbiz Gathering)

I am putting up this post just to set everyone’s expectations when attending a poz gathering. These simple reminders when faithfully abided with ensure that everyone gets to have fun while ensuring one’s own privacy prior, during, and after the gathering.

Let’s get rolling…

#1 Try to be on time. Many people complain of ending the event early primarily because people come in too late.

#2 Be considerate. A poz gathering is just like any other gathering. We may differ in age, lifestyle, language, interests, attitude, etc. In short, we can’t force people to be rubbing elbows with each other.. but be considerate.  If someone or something does not please you, just shove it off and try to have fun. J

#3 The Golden Rule. If you stumble upon someone you know personally outside the “showbiz” circle, keep it to yourself. Everyone should protect one’s privacy the same manner you want your privacy to be preserved.

#4 Try not to be shy. Approach someone. Initiate a small talk. Earn a friend. 

#5 Never purposely mock someone. If you can't help it, keep it in your head.

#6 Limit “mini groups”.  Don’t limit yourself to the crowd that you are used to. Go around and get to know new people as in an orgy, don't focus on just one cock (charot).

#7 Careful with the jargon. Do not use “poz”, “positive”, “ARVs”, “CD4” or any other terms that are related to HIV. Please be aware of the following substitute words that we can use:

HIV+ individual = Showbiz, mutant, xmen, may kulam, 
HIV- individual = non-showbiz
ARVs = Vitamins
CD4 = votes (as in vote count)
Hub = school

#8 ARV's. don't forget to bring your vitamins if you're on them already.

#9 Bill sharing. Bill will be shared to everyone with consideration to one’s actual food and drinks consumption. An overflow fund might be requested.


#10 Have fun.
