These bacteria did not become antibiotic resistant until we overused antibiotics. This is one of my pet peeves. We selected for these 'bad bugs' in this way. The CDC says: Many public health organizations have described the rapid emergence of resistant bacteria as a “crisis” or “nightmare scenario” that could have “catastrophic consequences. We are just about back to where we were before the discovery of penicillin. And I remember those days.
Among gram-positive pathogens, a global pandemic of resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and Enterococcus species currently are the biggest threat.
Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) and the global spread of drug resistance among common respiratory pathogens, including Streptococcus penumoniae and Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is epidemic. And just what will we do with TB that doesn't respond to antibiotics.
No penicillin is most effective against gram-positive bacteria.
endospore
Polymixin antibiotics interact with the lipopolysaccharide molecule of Gram negative bacteria. This component forms the outer leaflet of the outer membrane. Gram-positive bacteria do not have an outer membrane or lipopolysaccharide and thus polymixin antibiotics are unable to bind to the cell.

Gram positive bacteria do not contain a protein sheath over their peptidoglycan membrane layer. Because of this, a gram negative bacteria's membrane (which contains a protein coating over the peptidoglycan) is more resistant to being penetrated by chemicals.

Your question is not clear. Do you mean do some Gram + bacilli produce resistant forms. If so, you are thinking of those bacteria that produce endospores. They form these when the environment becomes hash and unlivable for them. Most studies have been with Bacillus subtilitus and Clostridium. These four Clostridium have clinical interest because of the diseases they cause: C. botulinum, C. difficile, C. perfringens and C. tetani.B. subtilitus is not really a pathogen but is now considered a normal gut bacteria.
Bacillus anthracis are rod shaped, gram positive bacteria. Their endospores are the infectious agents of anthrax. The infection is fatal in both animals and humans. The major symptoms are vomiting blood, respiratory collapse, severe diarrhea, skin lesions with boils, and acute inflammation.

Gram positive bacteria responds to the Gram stain; gram negative bacteria does not. The two bacteria do not respond to the same antibiotics. Right now the most dangerous bacteria is a gram negative bacteria. That could change.

Swallowing semen is not dangerous as long as you are positive your partner has no sexually transmittable diseases.

Due to large scale misuse of antibiotics by the unqualified doctors, you have landed in the problem of emergence of multi drug resistant bacteria. Now you have to invent the new antibiotics.The bile salts prevent the growth of gram positive bacteria. That is the reason why gram negative bacteria grow in the the intestinal tract. So this chemical can be used by intravenous route to treat the systemic infections by gram positive bacteria. There will be toxic accumulation of this chemical in the body. It is reabsorbed by enterohepatic circulation. So you have to invent the chemical or pair of chemicals, which will do precipitation of the bile salts in the intestine. The efficacy of this remedy has to be tried in clinical practice in case of the multi drug resistant gram positive infections.
