http://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2008/feb... Kelly- this article does not address hetero hiv, PERIOD. Also, most heteros (mostly Christian) have made HIV a moral issue when it is a medical issue. Based on this fact, I believe that heteros with HIV should be outed and made an example of. Yes. Heteros should be excluded from testing and services....
and since none of us sleep with them, they'll end up killing each other off in the not too distant future and leave the world to us...
I like it.
Fork on you straight people!
. interesting....why don't these people ask the millions of africans or the millions of straight men and women in the US if they feel that having HIV makes them gay. as far as the quotes...way to use them out of context!
no one believes that HIV doesn't affect the gay community. it's been a defining phenomenon for over two decades. but that doesn't make it soley a "gay" disease. and these kinds of hateful, agenda-driven websites just perpetuate myths and in the long run end up hurting people.
i'm hoping you're question is satirical, but if not-NO! everyone should be tested and tested often. the only way to beat this thing is with knowledge. No it is not a gay disease dummy! There is no such thing except in the minds of bible thumping hate mongers! HIV is a horrible disease that strikes all peoples and in many ways. You need to become educated and kids in grammar school already are ahead of you in education. It amazes me how many people are so stupid! African American STRAIGHT women are diagnosed as HIV positive more than gay men and women do . It is not a gay disease.
It used to be called a gay disease because gay men are usually more sexually active than the suburban men and women.
Get your BS facts straight. It's NOT a gay disease....good lord.
This website is spitting out RIGHT WING FUNDIE propaganda.
You should learn NOT to believe everything you read online. Not everyone is honest and truthful. This is a fine example.
EDIT: WTF!!! "Made an example of"?!?!?!?!?!?
Typical of a ''christian'' to cast judgment on other people. I hope that one day soon, you f*$king christians kill each other off. There has yet been one positive thing this group of people have brought to the world in over 2000 yrs.
People, it's time to start taking them out!!!!! ummmm, sweetie? anyone can get hiv. its NOT a gay disease. maybe thats what they thought in 197o but, its 2008. why dont you go ask the billions of dying men and women in africa whether they should be excluded from treatment because thyre straight. get a bigger world view my dear. It's not a gay disease, didn't you listen to Reverend Right, the government manufactured it to kill off hetro African Americans. :-) :-)
Now it's spread world wide and anyone can catch it through unprotected sexual contact. it's been said by a couple of people who should know better and many bigots
it's a disease that doesn't care about age, race or sexuality so it's wrong to say it's cos of any particular sexuality
I've starred this so others can show you how wrong you are U kno wat? U better be glad i cant curse but seriously that's dumb as hell. Ok everyone can have HIV.. i mean no doubt gay guys are more prone to it but yall should still be tested stickin yallself in evry chick yall see.. straight men aint superior to gays.. man get real What makes you think that viruses discriminate by sexual orientation? The same behavior that puts a gay person at risk of AIDS puts a straight person at the same risk. Unprotected sex and sharing infected needles are not exclusively gay phenomena If its a gay disease, why do so many men and women in Africa get the infection from straight sex? It's not JUST for gays anymore thanks to unscrupulous and morally loose single and married "str8" men who have sex with other men! So to answer your question: no, EVERYONE needs to be tested and serviced (so to speak.) No because HIV can be transmitted though blood, and needles. You could have sex with someone who was infected just because you are straight doesn't make you safe from such a horrible disease. that's dangerous thinking - someone needs to stop you from spreading your filth all over the place. And I don't mean your words. um, it isn't a gay disease. everyone can get it. Grow up and read more than one type of literature. Oh HIV is not a gay disease!
No one should be excluded from testing and treatment! Shouldn't idiots like u be excluded from the human race? I think so. Sure. The more of you who are dumb enough to get it, the BETTER!! :@) you (asker) are a danger to public health. I got tested for HIV when I was 18.
Thats because I was raped by a straight man...who had sex with alot of women.
I came out clean..lucky for him..I would have killed him.
but anyhow..HIV and AIDS doesnt care what your sexual orientation is.
Everyone who is sexually active, gay, straight, bi, lesbian should all be tested. Ppl should be tested if they have endured rape also.
I knew a young girl a good few years back who with her sister was living in a very bad situation. She and her sister had been being molested and raped on a continuing basis by her thier uncle ( who had adopted them after thier parents died) and his friends.. The poor kids were part of a pedophile ring.
I didnt even know this girl till she was 13 yrs old and contacted me. Yes it was over the internet..I used to deal with that kind of stuff.
Anyhow she and her sister were taken out of that situation and actually adopted by a nice foster family. she was 13 and her sister was 11.
I found out a little less than a few years later than she and her sister had full blown AIDS because of all the rape that had went on. She died when she was 15 yrs old...Her foster Father contacted me about it. And im sure her sister has already passed away too since its been a while.I think i still have pics of her somewhere that she sent to me...You could actually see her condition getting worse as time went along.
but she was raped by straight men. Do you understand what I mean? AIDS means nothing with sexual preference...
to the dude below me...Id like to punch you in ur smug face. FIRST OF ALL, are YOU serious?
Do you believe everything you read???
AT first, I couldn't tell if this was a "parody news"site like the Onion, or National Lampoon.
After all, they advocate chimp rights?
http://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2008/jun...
But it APPEARS to be a catholic "news" sight. Which means
they are biased in favor of the catholic views on everything.
Second the article never mentions ANY RULING!!!
You misled me!!! And any and all other YA readers!!! Shame!
And the articles DOES NOT say that HIV is a gay disease.
It distorts Matt Foreman's statement to spin it that he agrees
with Pro-Family views.
Considering the source, at the very least the 'reporting" is suspect. Certainly the spin seems to justify extreme caution.
Believe me, if Foreman had said or meant what was reported here, gay leaders would be crucifying him! Foreman left his position as chairman of NGLTF to take a higher paying job
with a gay philanthropic organization.
I can't tell if you have any compassion, hate gay people or
hate hIV victims. Certainly gay men spread HIV But both worldwide and in the US HIV is spreading faster among heterosexuals than homosexuals...

HIV is and was a planned medical "attack" on gay and/or
minority people. It was engineered in a lab.

It is a horrible example of how science can go wrong, and for'
you to dump on Gays of HIV victims shows incredible ignorance and insensitivity. Those are lobbyist and activist speaking on their own...
1 in 5 people are HIV positive- predominantly it is consider that heterosexual males are the least tested and highest risk category...
HIV can be contracted through IV Drug use, passed from mother to child, contracted in blood transfussions (though incidence is rare)... there are more than 1 way the HIV virus can be spread...
This is an absolutely stupid and retarded question and there are many more STD's you should be worried about.
HPV- the most predominant carrier of HPV is the heterosexual male- though only women get cervical cancer
STD incidence rates remain high in most of the world, despite diagnostic and therapeutic advances that can rapidly render patients with many STDs noninfectious and cure most. In many cultures, changing sexual mores and oral contraceptive use have eliminated traditional sexual restraints, especially for women, and both physicians and patients have difficulty dealing openly and candidly with sexual issues. Additionally, worldwide dissemination of drug-resistant bacteria (eg, penicillin-resistant gonococci) reflects misuse of antibiotics and spread of resistant clones by mobile populations. The effect of travel is most dramatically illustrated by the rapid spread of the AIDS virus (HIV-1) from Africa to Europe and the Americas in the late 1970s.[1]
Commonly reported prevalences of STIs among sexually active adolescent girls both with and without lower genital tract symptoms include chlamydia trachomatis (10 to 25%), Neisseria gonorrhoeae (3 to 18%), syphilis (0 to 3%), Trichomonas vaginalis (8 to 16%), and herpes simplex virus (2 to 12%).[citation needed] Among adolescent boys with no symptoms of urethritis, isolation rates include C. trachomatis (9 to 11%) and N. gonorrhoeae (2 to 3%).[citation needed]
In 1996, WHO estimated that more than 1 million people were being infected daily. About 60% of these infections occur in young people <25 years of age, and of these 30% are <20 years. Between the ages of 14 and 19, STDs occur more frequently in girls than boys by a ratio of nearly 2:1; this equalizes by age 20. An estimated 340 million new cases of syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia and trichomoniasis occurred throughout the world in 1999.[2][3]
In conclusion NO- go get tested, make sure your sexual partners have been tested and practice safe sex...
IGNORANCE IS NOT A CURE OR A PREVENTION METHOD!
Human Papillomavirus: 1 Virus, More Than 1 Disease
Cervical cancer is cancer of the cervix. Cervical cancer is a serious condition that can be life threatening.
Other types of the virus can cause genital wartsGenital warts.
Genital warts are usually flesh-colored growths that are caused by certain types of HPV.
Cervical cancer is a serious disease that affects the lives of sisters, wives, mothers, and daughters each year. And while genital warts aren't life threatening, they can be life altering. Get the facts about these diseases now. http://www.hpvinfo.com I think the point of this article is to get the gay community to realize that the majority of HIV positive are gay and therefore homosexuals should become educated to prevent the spread of the disease. The article does not say that heterosexuals do not get infected with HIV.
While 70% of AIDS cases may occur within the gay community the other 30% of the population with AIDS is heterosexual. Why would you want to exclude them from testing and services?
Everyone, no matter what their sexual orientation should practice safe sex and get tested regularly for all stds. |
