First of all there are few sex-related incidences of HIV/AIDS among female homosexuals. > In north America, HIV/AIDS was associated with male homosexual behavior because it was initially almost exclusively found in the male homosexual community. I read somewhere that the original incidence in north America was traced to a male homosexual Canadian airline steward who contracted the virus in Africa and passed it on to his friends in the community. Since then it has also spread to heterosexuals, but the overwhelming number of HIV/AIDS patients in north America are still male homosexuals. > Blaming homosexual promiscuity on mainstream attitudes is also false. Mainstream attitudes have always frowned on heterosexual extra-marital relations as well. This has not led heterosexuals to engage in the kind of massive, indiscriminate and often anonymous promiscuity that is seen in parts of the male homosexual community at places like public bath houses, etc. which have been around forever regardless of mainstream attitudes. Also, most female homosexuals do not engage in the level of wholesale promiscuity and anonymous sexual activity as many of their male counterparts. > What is new in society is the growth in committed homosexual relationships because of many more mature individuals coming out of the closet and also because it is far too risky in this day and age to engage in indiscriminate sex with multiple partners. > None of this has anything to do with the opposition to the use of the very clearly defined term "marriage" for committed homosexual relationships. > _______________________________________________ Goanet mailing list Goanet@lists.goanet.org http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
