Young Black MSM Becoming HIV Infected at Alarming Rates
Dear Dr. Eva,
Can you tell me whether it is true that more blacks, and especially black gay men, are infected with HIV than whites? If it is true, what do you think are the reasons for this? I'm a young black guy who wants to stay negative. From what I've seen, I don't think that black gay men have more risky sex than white gay men, in fact I think black guys may be more conservative (have fewer partners.)

Penis Questions for the New Year
Dear Dr. Eva,
Guys sometimes wake up with an erection. We call this a piss hard-on and go to the bathroom, and it goes down. Is there really a difference between this and an erection caused by sexual arousal?
Thank you.

Herpes Questions
Dear Dr. Eva,
Years ago I had one herpes outbreak, and I've never had another. I didn't think I needed to tell sex partners about this, since I got over it so long ago. Recently this came up in a conversation with a friend and sometime sex partner, and she was really upset that I hadn't told her. I think she is overreacting. We agreed to ask you.
