I retire in a little less than 2 weeks. At that point, I’ll have more time on my hands, and I will begin working on this site. I hope to build a veritable resources that will help to soothe any newly diagnosed herpes carrier. If you stumble upon these pages and would like to join the cause, please do contact me.

There are dedicated herpes dating sites! Meet People with Herpes (mpwh.net) is one such site. It’s an interesting concept.

Question: Does a site like this increase or decrease the stigma around herpes? Please share your thoughts in the comments below.

Hello world!

A warm welcome.

My name is Callum Macdonald. I carry the herpes simplex virus. I’ve carried it for about 2 years now. I generally get outbreaks on my inner thigh and on the tip of my penis. I’m proud to say I have herpes.

When I first discovered I had the disease, I felt like a lepper. I felt ashamed of carrying the virus. As I’ve learned more about this virus, I’ve become increasingly convinced that talking about the virus is a big part of learning to live with it. I’m starting this campaign in a bid to provide clear, factual information about herpes and to encourage open discussion.
