Big Nana "Only males can perform this act, which is why I referenced men."

Which may explain why 700 out of 280,000 Australian gay men get infected each year.
There are two men involved, which doubles the probability.
It's maths, not morality.

Hi,

To everyone using these admittedly alarming statistics as a way to decry gay men, you may want to keep in mind that sexual acts all fall on a scale in regards to HIV infection risk.

Anal sex obviously rates quite high.

Do you know what rates quite low? Lesbian intercourse. Now yes I am generalizing and horribly so, but significantly less than some of you bigots have on this thread so it is in keeping with the spirit of the conversation. But generally HIV transmission risk falls along these lines.

Anal
Vaginal
Oral

So if those filthy fags are truly disgraceful in their lifestyle and that's why they contract aids then on the scale my Lesbian partner and I are morally superior to all you filthy heterosexuals.

Seriously though HIV transmission across all demographics tends to have more to do with lack of education, improper access to contraceptives and societal backlash regarding certain types of sexual contact anal... casual... etc...

Meanwhile anyone suffering from HIV or any serious medical condition deserves empathy and compassion, not judgement on the hows and whys and why people are still engaging in unprotected sex deserves serious discussion not diatribes regarding personal views about certain types of people.

Hello Zeil,

Never thought that we would have a lesbian admitting to be a lesbian on OLO, but here you are, calling us bigots. How about I return the compliment by calling you a disgusting pervert? That's fair, isn't, or does the abuse just go one way with you?

“Meanwhile anyone suffering from HIV or any serious medical condition deserves empathy and compassion”.

Don't think so dearie. You have every right to do whatever you want, according to the law, but don't expect all of us to kowtow and pretend that we think that you are anything but abnormal.

Hello Foxy,

Thankyou for the welcome and I do, but I also like them. I like exposure to all viewpoints it keeps us from becoming entrenched in any sort of echo chamber.

Hello TTBN,

I am a Lesbian and you are a bigot, textbook definition wise, I'm sorry, I didn't create the word. If you don't like being called so then don't be so, I believe is the common view. On a similar note, feel free to call me a Lesbian, as often as you would wish.
Furthermore you can think whatever you wish and I would never try to force you to think otherwise.
I don't agree with Capitalism and nothing anyone could say would change my mind. I'm fairly sure.
However I don't go around heckling and demeaning Capitalists at every opportunity. You can view homosexuality as unnatural without having to state such as often as possible as loudly as possible in the most offensive way possible even when the situation does not warrant it.
But again that is just my opinion your own likely differs.

On a side note though. You don't think cancer patients and leukemia sufferers and the like deserve even a drop of compassion? Seriously?

//here you are, calling us bigots. How about I return the compliment by calling you a disgusting pervert?//

Jeez, it's getting to the stage where a fella can't even make a bigoted comment without being called a bigot. Political correctness gone mad...

//but don't expect all of us to kowtow and pretend that we think that you are anything but abnormal.//

I'd wager money on ttbn being the sort of bloke that publicly expresses his disgust at lesbianism, but privately still jerks off to lesbian porn.

If he can still get it up, that is.

//You don't think cancer patients and leukemia sufferers and the like deserve even a drop of compassion?//

I'd also wager money on him being the sort of bloke that views compassion as weakness, cruelty as character building, and ignorance as strength.

Presumably he was absent the day that his sunday school covered the parable of the good Samaritan. And his parents never let him watch Star Trek because it had a black woman and a gay asian in it.
