Everything you wanted to know about gays (but were afraid to ask).

[steen]

Yeah I'd probably be emotional if I had a tumor.

Well, you are emotional about EVERYTHING. Very passionate. :kissy:

 

[Kelzie]

What?!? Are you flirting?!? With a prolifer!!! :shock:

 

[steen]

Hey, I am already married. But I love people, even pro-lifers with sense of some reason.

But I am concerned about her being sucked into the crowd that want to enslave her and die from cancer.

NOT an abortion thread. :2wave:

It's true. I'm sly like a fox.

 

[Naughty Nurse]

It's true. I'm sly like a fox.

Well you sure are foxy.

 

[Jerry]

But you just DID put it into a hysterical context. In the mental health field, the accusing others of what you are doing yourself is called "projection." Is that what you are doing here?

NOT an abortion thread. :2wave:

Learn when to stop, steen. I droped it, you should to.

I have another question...

I have seen several statistics that show that gay people tend to live shorter lives than most people...What do you (gay/lesbian, not others) people think about this?

i'd have to see the study that this statistic came from. got a source?

I found this:

Conclusion:

Study after study reveals that homosexuality, whether male or female, can take anywhere from 10, 20 to 30 years off of someone's lifespan. With all the attention on smoking, which the National Cancer Institute says takes from 7 to 10 years off someone's life, why not the same human outcry on homosexuality? Here's a behavior that's killing people 2 to 3 times the rate of smoking, yet nobody seems to care. In fact, we are encouraging and affirming individuals into the "gay" lifestyle. If you truly love someone, you would steer them away from self-destructive behaviors, rather than towards them, shouldn't you? Homosexuals need our tough love, not blind love, the kind of love that is going to love them no matter what they say and do. We must extend that helping hand and say " I think your worth saving, let's work on it together."

Given the author's noted bias, misspellings, and syllogistic logic, I'm comfortable dismissing that arguement as a whole, BUT will throw out a HUGE caveats. Male homosexuals still are in one of the highest risk groups in the US for HIV/AIDS. Participating in risky/unsafe sex is going to shorten one's lifespan, gay or straight. Since HIV/AIDS is more prominent in the male homosexual community that any other community, the lifespans are going to be shorter. Now, does being a homosexual shorten one's lifespan? No. Does participating in risky/unsafe sex as a homosexual male shorten one's lifespan? Quite possibly, yes.

there is another part to it. more gay men have HIV, and so a gay man is more likely to encounter it then a straight man, even if neither of them participate in risky behaviors.

the spread of a virus is exponential, not linear, and right now the gay community is "ahead" for lack of a better word.

this of course does not mean that participating in risk/unsafe sex is not a significant factor.

Notice how Monogamous, non-drug using, healthy lesbian women are NEVER talked about in this argument. Ever wonder why?

Because they are one of the least likely groups to encounter/aquire AIDS let alone spread it.

heck, monogamous, non-drug using, healthy gay men are never talked about either.

Why are homosexuals more likely to get AIDS then heterosexuals?

 

[vergiss]

Why are male homosexuals more likely to get AIDS then heterosexuals?

Corrected for you.

Why are heterosexuals more likely to get AIDS than female homosexuals?

 

[jimmyjack]

Corrected for you.

Why are heterosexuals more likely to get AIDS than female homosexuals?

Homosexuals are proportionally more likely to get AIDS than heterosexuals, why?

 

[shuamort]

Homosexuals are proportionally more likely to get AIDS than heterosexuals, why?

A couple reasons. Of course, as Vergiss pointed out, you have to quantify it by stating that it's male homosexuals as lesbian intercourse is at the low end of the totem pole under heterosexual intercourse.

I'm assuming we're talking more specifically about HIV infection than getting AIDS (as AIDS is a by-product of HIV).

 

[vergiss]

Male homosexuals are proportionally more likely to get AIDS than heterosexuals or female homosexuals, why?

*sigh*

Fixed again.

Why are heterosexuals proportionally more likely to get AIDS than female homosexuals?

 

[jimmyjack]

*sigh*

Fixed again.

Why are heterosexuals proportionally more likely to get AIDS than female homosexuals?

Because heterosexuals (that have to have sex or we all cease to exist), get infected by bisexuals, unfortunately.

 

[jimmyjack]

Now, why are homosexuals more likely to get AIDS than heterosexuals?

 

[shuamort]

Now, why are homosexuals more likely to get AIDS than heterosexuals?

Judging by your other threads, you're here to flame and support your own personal agenda. You have been corrected and refuse to listen. As such, consider this a gentle warning to knock it off.

 

[Enola/Alone]

Homosexuals are proportionally more likely to get AIDS than heterosexuals, why?

Statistics for this, please?

Actually, in the UK, more heterosexuals are now infected yearly then homosexuals. Drug addicts are the people most likely to be affected here.

 

[Enola/Alone]

So you use this as a basis for arguing that bisexuality is immoral? If one hetero infected another, woudl taht make hetero sex wrong too?

 

[vergiss]

Now, why are MALE homosexuals more likely to get AIDS than heterosexuals?

Christ almighty, did you not learn the first time?

Why are heterosexuals more likely to get AIDS than female homosexuals?

 

[jimmyjack]

Statistics for this, please?

Actually, in the UK, more heterosexuals are now infected yearly then homosexuals. Drug addicts are the people most likely to be affected here.

That is because there are less homosexuals than heterosexuals, yet the likelihood of getting AIDS as a gay man are extremely high, this is common knowledge, why do you question even the very obvious of facts.
