Men, if your sister told you a man infected her with HIV, what would you do first? Be honest.

Fact: When a sister shares an HIV diagnosis, she may need treatment, calm and emotional support. As her brother you may feel angry or protective, but the most helpful thing you can do first is listen to her, respect what she wants, and stand by her while she gets care.

Parents, if your son told you his friends say “real men never refuse s*x,” what would you tell him?

Fact: Boys and men can also say no to s*x at any time. Consent applies to everyone. Parents can help by teaching sons that masculinity is not proved through s*x, and that respecting their own boundaries is just as important as respecting someone else’s.

Is it ever okay to reveal someone’s HIV status after they die? If your uncle wanted to announce your late father’s HIV status at his funeral “so people can learn,” would you allow it?

Fact: HIV status is sensitive health information. Even after someone dies, sharing it publicly can affect their dignity and can also expose their family to stigma. Education about HIV does not require revealing someone’s private status without permission.

If you were in the woman’s s shoes, would you continue with this marriage? Be honest.

Fact: You cannot know someone’s HIV status by trusting them, knowing them well, or looking at them. If a couple chooses to test, it should be a mutual health decision, not something demanded only from one partner.
