I wonder how many heterosexual men or women have died of AIDS, where the source of the HIV (1 or 2 iterations back) was spread by a gay (or bisexual) male? If you were a single male looking to live the "pleasurable" life that you seem to strive for (based on you messages on this thread), and you believed you found a means to your "pleasure" in the young lady you met in a bar...and this "pleasure" resulted in you becoming HIV-positive. I think your views might change some.

Come, come - the AIDS epidemic spreads harm far and wide to those not enjoying the pleasure. We could begin with the enormous burden on the health system, a cost to all of us. Then there are all the infections inflicted on partners (including heteros-) unaware of the risk they are exposed to. Also, there are ways other than sex to become infected. Epidemics are not discriminate in their spread.
