Feel like you have something to say about the issues that affect us all? Want to meet other gay and bisexual men to hear what they have to say too? Then a new group may be for you. A CHANGE OF SCENE is a once a month group run by gay/bi men for gay/bi men, and part of 56 Dean Street’s Wellbeing Programme. It’s a chance to discuss issues that are relevant to you and me and all of us. Come and have your say or just sit and listen. </p><p></p><p>This month: ‘Barebacking: an honest discussion’</p><p>You do not have to talk about your own experience if you don’t wish to but if you have something to say about why unsafe sex happens, bareback porn, what you think about condoms, what you think about PREP or any other issues that arise then please come along and join us.</p><p></p><p>Related Stories:</p><p><a href="http://www.thegayuk.com/magazine/4574334751/So-Why-Are-So-Many-Gay-Men-Opposed-To-PrEP/8625632">So Why Are So Many Gay Men Opposed To PrEP?</a></p><p><a href="http://www.thegayuk.com/magazine/4574334751/Falcon-Porn-Studio-Removes-Condoms-Digitally/7352569">Falcon Porn Studio Removes Condoms Digitally</a></p><p><a href="http://www.thegayuk.com/magazine/4574334751/Prostitution-The-Last-Taboo/5484372">Prostitution: The Last Taboo?</a></p><p></p><p>Organiser Simon Marks said ‘I hear so many men say they don’t have an opportunity to meet gay men outside of bars and clubs to actually have conversations and get to speak to other people and that has been my experience of the scene. So many of us are informed and passionate and want to contribute but it’s hard to hear what we have to say in loud bars and clubs so this is an exciting community space to do that. This month the topic is ‘barebacking’. There’s a belief that lots of people have unsafe sex so we want to have a non-judgmental discussion about it. We will have a speaker to discuss his experience and then throw it open to the room for anyone who wants to contribute. It’s sure to be a lively discussion’.</p><p></p><p></p><p> </p><p></p><p>Tuesday 11th November 2015</p><p>630 – 830pm</p><p>Free entry.
