Project CRYSP utilizes internet outreach, provider training, social marketing and community mobilization – on the web and in the “real world” to engage men around issues of holistic health, including but not deferring to topics of HIV/STDs and crystal meth use.
By identifying established online partners, such as the Feast of Fun, and creating effective relationships, Project CRYSP exponentially increases its audience by tens of thousands and makes the delivery of health information interesting and fun. Additionally, this presentation will look at opportunities to merge traditional HIV education activities (i.e. community forums and social marketing) with Web 2.0 technologies.
Standard Podcast:
Gay men are living longer than ever and we need to make sure we continue to keep the healthy bodies we’ve enjoyed in our younger years.
After all, life doesn’t end at forty.
On today’s show we’re talking to Dr. Frank Spinelli, your gay doctor about his brand new book “The Advocate Guide to Gay Men’s Health and Wellness.”
Dr. Frank joins us to talk about why some gay men abuse drugs, transmit sexual diseases and how to keep romance hot well into your golden years.
Dr. Frank says one of the most important things you can do with your doctor is to come out as a gay man. Simply say “Doctor, I’m gay.” But for many of us, we shy away from doing that because we fear being judged or worse, being looked at as a freak because we don’t necessarily share the same sexual orientation as our doctor.
Thankfully, Dr. Frank is gay and fabulous! You can check out his MySpace page here.
Listen up folks, this podcast just might save your life!
The Advocate Guide to Gay Men’s Health and Wellness is a fabulous book that covers all the questions you may want to ask your doctor. It makes a great beside or bathroom book.
I believe that the single most important thing to improve the sexual health of all people in America is for the next President to push in congress a Universal Health Care plan for all people. The reality is that too many people living in the U.S. wait to the last minute to see a doctor because they simply cannot afford it.
I can only imagine the lives that would be saved and the improvement in transmission rates of all sexually transmitted diseases if we all had the same access to health care that almost all western nations enjoy.
For many of Americans, access to adequate health care is sketchy at best and I urge you to get Dr. Frank’s book (it’s $22 on Amazon) to educate yourself about the perils we face as gay men and also about some of the rewards and pleasures we’ve worked so hard to enjoy.
That being said, I urge you to save up and go see a doctor. There are many clinics in most urban areas that offer services on a sliding scale.
