homosexuality doesn't cause aids.. unprotected sex w/ an infected partner does. Actually it is also far easier for a woman having sex w/ an infected man to contract Aids than any other scenario.
Check out Africa.. 5% -26% of ppl have aids there. The problem there isn't gay sex but lack of medical care, sex education, pregnancy transmitted aids, and incidences of rape.
Just out of curiousity,does the Belgium press support homosexuality? (seems so in ur post but not sure if it is a country specific thing or european in general). I live in the U.S. and the level of homophobia makes me nauseous.
I would like to hear people actually explain their definition of homophobia before they start calling entire populations of countries homophobic.
I don't have any problem with what people want to do in their own lives in the privacy of their own or their partners home....but I don't have to start liking or respecting gays in any way than I already like or respect anyone.
I have a problem with the "I am gay and YOU need to accept us" crowd in the gay community. My response is good for you and no I don't. Would you like to explain to me who you are and why you are who you are and I will decide on weather or not I personally accept you based on that not because of your sexual orientation.
"its so bad that some people hesitate to tell people they are gay because they don't want to make others uncomfortable."
First off not really. There are a lot of gays out there that will tell you loudly and proudly regardless of weather you care or not. Secondly...OK...you didn't elaborate on when and where and how they are hesitant. I would not walk up to my boss and tell him "You know, I really like to eat pussy".
I used to be really indifferent about peoples sexuality. As the years went on the only people that ever tried to promote their sexuality and demand acceptance of others is gays.
Before anyone gets defensive I don't like public displays of affection from anyone no matter their sexual orientation nor do I like chauvinistic or sexually expressive behavior in a non intimate environment. I do believe that the people of the USA have every right to not want marriage as it is currently defined to extend to the homosexual community gays have every right to be gay as long as they are not infringing on the rights of others in the process or more importantly trying to force their beliefs and feelings on others.
90% of homosexuals are not genetically homosexuals. They got themselves a bit confused and jumped into the band wagon. I go with what nick said.
Aids is not caused by homosexuality but gays have a habit of continuously seeking new a $ $ holes/bending over to balance off their insecurity that they are different. And even if you use condoms, anal penetration can easily blow the rubber away due to extra friction and lack of natural lubrication.
"How can we know for sure the aids virus wasnt artificially (and with a purpose) created by humans?"
Aids has been arround way longer dan artificially technology.
Each human has different dna and it's own defense mechanism to "clean" itself.
If you have sex with someone it's like a big "dna or defense cells" swap. Somehow , if you switch from partner to partner often , these cells mutate -> aids
That's also why trough anal sex u have the most chance to get it , it's full of good/bad bacteria there.
"its so bad that some people hesitate to tell people they are gay because they don't want to make others uncomfortable. that makes me sad...its like they are outcasted or blacklisted."
Would you feel at ease to tell someone your are shizo ?
This post actually reminded me what it was like to be young and afraid that every shag was going to knock me up.
People are people. Regardless of sex, race, religion people are just people. They have the same basic wants, needs, desires, and fears.
Aids growth is lowest amount lesbian women. By your logic, only women should beable to have sex and only with other women. In fact, perhaps we should outlaw the penis or at least transfer all peni wielding persons to an island where they can be together ensuring the healthy vagina weilding population remains uninfected.
Pretty poposterous.
Sex including homosexuality is a biological driven urge. Homosexuality is not a socially conditioned response. It is a part of someone's medical make-up from birth.
I think it is nature's rather pleasant form of birth control.
People are people. Just accept them for who they are and try to have compassion for their journey.
You wouldn't want people judging you, thinking you are disgusting, and need to be stopped because you are a white male thus a penis wielding person.
BTW I find it very interesting that all the women are supportive of homosexuality and the men are uncomfortable. Once upon a time sex between two men was seen as the highest and most holy sexual union.
Actually, AIDS hasn't really been around that long and many people do suspect the AIDS virus was introduced to African cultures via a US vacine for population control. At one time, there was a large body of evidence to suggest this. I imagine, this has been since disproven but anything is possible.
I love that love happens. And if it happens between two people of the same gender and they want to celebrate the happiness they found, why would anyone, ANYONE object to that?
I wouldn't want anyone to tell me who I can and cannot love and be with.
I am very proud to live in a country that accepts same-sex marriage.
I also think they should be allowed to have families and be fully accepted members of society. Once they truly are accepted, they won't have to demand it. They will just be your neighbour, friend, collegue another human being you meet along the way.
Well here's the problem. Reseach shows that before most men come out of the closet, they go through stages where they have sex with alot of different women (not because they are horn balls like their friends) & they do this as a cover up or shield against their true sexuality. The problem is, by the time a man on the down low comes out he's already slept with numerous of girls (and we all know sleeping with women will create Aids epidemics too) & then when a man switches to the other side (finally coming out of the closet), that doesn't mean that his sexual promiscuity has stopped. When a man comes out of the closet, it just simply means he's identified with what sex he likes better. Coming out of the closet doesn't mean getting a wake up call that having sex with numerous partners could potentially lead to your death. And most people have to realize that these AIDS statistics are so strong & pointing towards one direction more than the other because of how many people actually DO NOT know that they are infected. If a man who is on the down low is having sex with mutliple women (because he is battling his true identity) then his chances of getting an STD or AIDS virus from a woman is very high. But then if you have that same man, who never gets tested or doesn't get tested enough, switching over to males & having sex with them & continuing the promiscuity, the chances of contacting these types of viruses have just DOUBLED.
I don't think the statistics are saying that gays are primarily responsible for the Aids epidemic. I think these studies are basically just shining light on something that need shun on & instead of getting offensive & arguing about what's more true or who's pointing the fingers, something should be done. Did you know that 78% of men who cheat on their spouses normally cheat on their spouses with 2 or more different women? So even infedility is linked to the spreading of HIV & other diseases. Not to mention, drug usage or having constant contact with blood (rather you work at a hopsital or a construction worker who's always getting cut)is another serious problem. And if it does seem like the fingers keep getting pointed at the gay community for the reason AIDS is becoming more widespread than ever, I think it's time we put down our emotions & feelings & tackle this thing. I think so many homophobic or even straight people place themselves in a completely different mindset & world than gays & to an extent the media has too.
I think so many homophobic or even straight people place themselves in a completely different mindset & world than gays & to an extent the media has too. So when you look at why the gay community doesn't seem to get the "big picture" that YES, we're talking to YOU just like we talk to those who are straight, that AIDS is not something that happens to everybody else. Most people are either one sexual partner away from contacting the virus OR one moment away from finding out the truth that they've had the virus for a long time. When new studies come out to say that men between the ages of 18-20 are more likely to kill a pedestrian while driving more than men between the ages of 21-23, we can argue all day about the 22 year olds who kill people on the road true. But in reality, the facts are the facts.
"There is absolutely no evidence that HIV was man-made. This is especially true when you look at our level of technology back in the 1940s and 1950s. In those years, we did not have the technical tools it would have taken to "invent" a virus. In fact, the genetic make-up of this virus is so complex, that even today, we do not have a total understanding of how the virus works at the genetic level. Genetic analysis pushes the estimated origin of HIV back to between 1884 and 1924, with a more focused estimate at 1908."

hell no , we first created aids + even a cure for it...
If you guys go to the U.S. governments own offical patent website, you will find out that the HIV virus has a patent, was made in MD, by Doctor Robert Gallo. You will also find the patent number for the AIDS cure. Both documents talk about how they were made, who made them, who funded them, etc. This is the governments own website. This is a fact. Type in the patent number in the search bar on the website "5676977" for the cure and "4647773" for the patent number of the virus.
Its sick but true, AIDS was man-made.
Evan: That's not true. What Dr. Gallo did in that study was to create a cell line to reproduce the virus for further study. The virus evolved from SIV that infects non-human primates.
Escalating figures of AIDS is quite understandable if you look at it from the nature's perspective. Its important that human race must be partially or completely removed from this planet for the survival of other species.
Homosexuality is very less in underdeveloped worlds where there is less media influence. Those people dont get psychologically influenced by the media to believe that they are homosexuals when they are not.
Okay what's the next assignment, you guys did well B+ 😉
Not quite an A because some of the debates were left inconclusive. 😛
But I did learn that some GAY Doctor got mad with his lover and created AIDS to get back at him. When they decided to make up and get back together he created a cure.
I didn't state my opinion because it has already been stated by a few people on your thread.
It is unnecessary to repeat what has already been said, especailly on a topic like this. I would feel inappropriate to debate it. However, I will give one word answers to show what I agree and disagree with.
There always seems to be some people who looks neither like males or females. For them, it is hard to discern their gender. So, for them I do this. If they are wearing male clothes, they are male. They wearing female clothes, they are female.

Arround 1000 new people ( young people ) with the virus were registrated this year.
Not h.i.v. but bam wham you gonna die horribely aids.
I was thinking over this pure rationally , with all the television hype that is supporting people that having sex with the same sex is ok..
how can u say so easly oooh let them be , while the amount of aids infections is going trough the sky..
( blabla having sex with allot of women can cause it 2 i know, i know.. i'm not a retard. ... but not with such an high % as with gay people )
offcourse money is the big reason for supporting it ( gay movies , gay events , .. )
if you fail to c that... you're just naive..
yeh okay , it's sounds like a black and white look
Don't get me wrong , this is not about hate...
Few good friends of mine are bi or gay and i love them to death
i'm just getting concerned about the situation
