After revealing his HIV status to Oprah last week, and then getting a less-than-sympathetic reception when he discussed it further on ‘The View’, former ‘Who’s The Boss’ star Danny Pintauro sits down with HIV Equal for a frank and open interview on life, love and sex. Pintauro spills the beans on his take on meth addiction, his HIV status, Grindr, unsafe sex before he is asked for his opinion on PrEP on which he professed he was a fan, but added this rider.
“The conversation with PrEP is not simply if you take this regularly your chances of getting HIV are very slim. It’s, if you take this regularly your chances are slim, but you still need to do the following things in a sexual environment or you’re going to end up with something else.”
Watch the video to see how important it is that celebrities, who young gay people in particular look up too, use their own experiences to help warn and advise others. queerguru gives big kudos to Danny Pintauro for speaking out like this.
