Does anyone think there is a need for a kinky dating site specifically for people with health problems like herpes, or hiv, hep or any other health problem out of the mainstream ? Maybe a place for them to not only hook up but to get the latest info on how to play safely with thier problems?

I haven't the links at hand, but I come across a lot of sites tilted towards particular health concerns & sexuality. However I have not found any that are geared towards health concerns, sexuality AND kink.

There are several sites. DatingwithH dot com is one and there are others. Hepatits C is not considered an STI (Sexually Transmitted Disease) by CDC. I remember one ad on alt where the name was something like herpespositive--that would work to find partners with similar issues. Also a non-herpes positive person can take an antiviral med to "prevent infection," but while it may delay the infection and may minimize outbreaks I think that statistically within a year or two that person also will become positive. The right partner may also be willing to share an infection--if the intent is a life-long relationship. I can't help but wonder if such a relationship might add stability to a marraige.
