When I was in Vancouver, I saw a sign advertising 25 cent peep shows. My thought process went something like this.

1. It's 25 cents! I can't afford not to!
2. Oh man, what kind of girl works at a 25 cent peep show place?
3. Who cares? It's 25 cents!
4. I care. It's probably just a tubby guy cranking it out in a booth. It doesn't say "lady peep show".
5. But you can tell all your friends about the story, even if you get inside and it's a guy cranking one out. That would be even funnier.
6. I don't have a quarter, though. Or whatever you call a 25 cent piece in this monopoly money they use.
7. You have a dollar coin. You could get 4 peep shows.
8. I don't think I want 4 consecutive peep shows.
9. Maybe you can get change before you go in.
10. It's an adult book store. I don't want to put my hands on any quarters that came from a 25 cent peep show.
11. You can't go home and tell everybody about the time you almost saw a 25 cent peep show. Just give them the dollar.
12. I have a bad feeling that as soon as I go inside somebody is just going to rob me. Absolute best case scenario is that I just see some boobs, and I can see boobs for free on the internet! Worst case scenario is that I get robbed or killed.
13. Good point. Let's go drink more.

I don't see how it will do much good to stop the spread of HIV aside from those that once they know they will take steps to avoid passing it on.

Well, is not so much about stopping the spread of HIV but alerting people they've been exposed. Most of them will take those steps like you said, but mostly, they said approx 3500 people don't know they have the virus, some will find out eventually during a routine test, others (maybe most) will not find out until AIDS develops and by then some drug therapies might not be as effective.

I wish there was like a pool testing kit where you just push the strip in the vag and it changes color to show what the acceptable (or unacceptable) risk is. Kind of like this:

I've been tested a couple of times, despite the worlds most pathetic dating record followed by over a dozen years of monogamous nerdly marriage. They do it when you get pregnant as part of all the other indignities they subject you to. Actually, it was just a blood test, so it wasn't even the most embarrassing test.

Even though it was pretty unlikely I could have caught it, it was still nice to hear I was HIV negative.

I had this exact same back and forth with a co-worker while doing an over night network maintenance in Manhattan. Only it was 25 cent peep show next to Gray's Papaya. Gray's does the recession special of two hotdogs and a drink for $4.45.

Now admittedly it was a male peep show and neither me nor my coworker are gay. But you can not beat dinner and a show in NYC for under $5.00.

We ended up not going in because frankly both of us were afraid of who was working the 25 cent peep show at 3:40 am on a tuesday.

That's the point. Having unprotected sex while HIV positive is assault with a deadly weapon. There is no double jeopardy laws in Canada so if your victim dies it gets upgraded to murder.

Hahaha I went to that book store once... in New West right? Peep was off the chain! Chick was smokin' hot and knew how to blow a dude... I think she was Thai, small tits tho. As long as the quarters kept comin', so did the mouth strokin'. Best thing is you just jizz on the floor and leave. Gotta go back there someday...

Time of day is the exact reason we made the right decision.

Sort of like why you don't show up at the strip club at 3pm on a Wednesday. You'll end up getting begged and harassed by the trolls working that shift.

Maybe if I had been there at a normal time to take in a peep show. Like midnight on a weekend. But not in the middle of a weekday. Knowing that you just jizz on the floor and leave doesn't exactly help.

Also, the cost wasn't the problem. If anything, it was my primary motivation to go inside.

now just because my wife travels to BC once a month for weekend business conferences and the fact that its really odd I cant find anything about these conferences advertised on the Internet does not mean she is going there and catching the HIV so I dont see why she should be tested. ( all women leak white stuff when they travel on planes right?)
