The recent trend of the era is the terribly dangerous "sex roulette" parties. In the "sex roulette" party, people have unprotected sex with strangers knowing that one of them is infected with HIV. The die-hard partying people believe that the thrill of having sex is incredible when there is a potential risk of contracting the fatal disease.

The extreme "sex roulette" parties are usually attended by gay men that are much thrilled by the feeling whether or not they will be infected. What is alarming is that the recent scenario that is increasingly seen in Spain could become a trend worldwide. The underground parties are reportedly attended by many teenagers.

"I can see that everyone is talking about sex parties now, but in fact, they have been common for a long time even here in Serbia," said a Serbian stripper named Tijana who claimed the parties originated in Serbia, according to Mirror. "In fact, what really shocked me was this bizarre variation that seems popular for extreme sex," she added.

Tijana said that in the extreme sex parties all the attendees wear masks and one of them is already infected with HIV. The stripper also noted that the "sex roulette" parties are organized by rich people and attended by equally rich people and the joy involved are the ultimate thrill got from the risk that they could be having sex with an HIV infected person.

Doctors in Spain who noted that "sex roulette" parties are becoming popular recently, warned about the dangers of such practices. Dr Josep Mallolas of Hospital Clinic Barcelona told el Periodico said that one can attend sex parties of the sort only if the person is HIV positive. He also noted that there is another type of party called "blue" party where the participants take anti-viral drugs to reduce the chance of getting infected.

"Partygoers think the higher the risk, the stronger the thrill," Psychosexual therapist Kate Morley says the lure of sex roulette parties is all about risk, Mail Online reported. "In the case of sex parties the intense high is as you combine orgasm with high adrenaline," added Morley.
