Isn't it something like straight men are at the lowest risk and straight women are at the highest? I'm not sure I would totally trust details, though. | |

All I can say is don't believe the PC hype. There are many political agendas behind this disease. "You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." "

Isn't it something like straight men are at the lowest risk and straight women are at the highest? I'm not sure I would totally trust details, though. no..the study points out that gay men are at the highest risk (from catching aids sexually) ....here is an excerpt: Details: HIV cant reach the lymphocytes, theres no infection. This is why it's so hard to contract the virus through old-fashioned vaginal sex. The vagina is a rugged structure, built to withstand everything from a thrusting penis to the passage of a baby's head during childbirth. Its walls are muscular, covered by a thick later of epithelial cells that resist tearing and that secrete a lubricating mucus that contains enzymes for fighting off bacteria.
The rectum, on the other hand, offers almost no protection. Its is lined with extremely thin tissue, no thicker than a lambskin condom, and can easily tear. the story goes on in much more detail and is a must read for all if you ask me....it just reinforces the importance of protected sex amongst the gay/bisexual community.... *and* the straight community....cause it says the risk is lower, but there is still a risk.
