Ermmm...this is quite different from my usual posts but I just had to say something!! So CBS's Two and half men star, Charlie Sheen just confirmed on NBC's "Today" show that he is HIV positive.
Tragic as it may sound, the 50 year old man admitted to having unprotected sex with 2 women!! For 4 years he knew his status and was still having unprotected sex.
Now to my main issue, why do America and the rest of the western world use words so freely? Just because Charlie is a celebrity doesn't make him immortal or different. Not to stigmatize or anything but what he did is very wrong!
Why is he being called BRAVE??!! I could describe him with many words but brave isn't one of them. No matter how "invisible" or "unnoticeable" his virus may be, it's still not right.
He shouldn't be described as a hero for potentially giving other people the virus. It is a good thing he came out to announce his status and even reveal his status to some of his partners before having sex with them.
Y'all misuse words way too much!! Charlie Sheen did wrong by having unprotected sex knowing he carried the virus!!! Say so and let the world learn from it. Stop buttering him up because he's a celebrity.
Giving Caitlyn (Bruce) Jenner 'Glamour Woman of the Year' award when she has been a man for 65 years of her life! SMH...this crap has to change!
Sincerely,
A FURIOUS OBSERVER.
true...that is no bravery...its sheer wickedness all cloaked by fame and money
