This is true... did you know that you need to have unprotected vaginal sex an average of 700 times with an HIV+ partner to contract HIV?

I'm afraid that is not actually true, it's a commonly held myth based on earlier studies. Whilst it is riskier for penile-anal sex to contract the disease, penile-vaginal sex can range from 1 per 1000 sexual acts to 1 in 3 sexual acts based on factors such as the stage oft he disease, circumcision, other present STI's, roughness of the acts, and a number of other things.

Saying it's a near purely gay disease wouldn't do anything to explain why Africa is having an epidemic. It's just residual nonsense from the 80's.
If you believe it, question it. If you question it, get an answer. If you have an answer, does that answer satisfy reality? Does it satisfy you? Probably not. For no one else will agree with you, not really.

Why don't we prevent all kinds of sexuality, it causes all kinds of bother.

So do you plan on defending your ignorant opinion or are you happy to just appear as a complete fucktard?

I'm just wondering if you realize that this doesn't change the fact that sexuality is not a choice.
I realize that homosexuality defies physical biology and that our bodies are not constructed for same gender sex...the act is unnatural.

Yet, it works, and occurs in nature, soo... actually it is natural.

It doesn't procreate, but it's a form of sex, and successful forms of sex fulfill biological needs of individuals that participate, and has positive effects on their physical health.

Argh, how do you people never seem to understand this?! Humans are natural too! Humans are developed from nature, we are natural; anything we do is natural! We are animals, just the same as the ones in the post above.

"Unnatural" as a concept is just magical thinking, really.

Sorry Germ, that doesn't make it natural for animals either.

Which leads one to ask: what the fuck is your metric for what's natural?

And more importantly, why should we give a damn what you think is natural or not? Your opinions aren't the sole basis for reality, after all.

Yet the link I left explains why it is natural.

A research paper into the biological causes for homosexuality.
