No doubt AIDS was also transmitted by gay men, still in the closet, married to women. Why were they still afraid to live openly as who they were? Attitudes like those expressed in the quotation. By the way, gonorrhea has historically been the most common STD, and it's essentially a straight disease. So let's debate the morals of all those straight men who infected their partners.

Proven studies have shown gay men and bisexual men have multiple partners often, and a lot more casual sexual encounters than heterosexual men, so there goes your doubts about their promiscuity up in flames. | |

Aids is a lot more serious than gonorrhea, would you honestly have to think if offered a choice? | |

| formerly Isherwood Location: San Diego, CA Posts: 14,180 | What I find sad in this whole debate is the assumption that sexuality is an either/or situation. People who insist on viewing life through the misapprehension that everything is either this or that, black or white, are no better than computers that can only think in terms of on or off, 1 or 0, input or output. They are missing all the richness of life that falls between the extremes, the gray areas. They cheapen their own existence. I'll be blogging about this later so I'm not going to go on at length here, but to base this debate on the notion that in sexuality your only choice is gay or straight is nonsensical.

![]() BANNED Location: between the good and the bad Posts: 1,330 | I believe it is 'gay or straight' as you say in gayspeak, and anyone else in between is really gay. I don't believe in these grey area either, they are a theory that you can be many things at once, that many possibility's can happen at once, or many faults are to blame at once, when life and its situations are a lot more straight forward and a lot more simple than that. For example would you walk up to a man who was half American negro and half caucasian and tell him he was actually grey? Because he was both races at once? He would probably tell you he was black, a brother, that he could say 'nigger' in a comradely kind of way to another black man and not be viewed as racist for it. Or would you tell him Isherwood, that he is actually a grey area, both white and black? Because you say life is not absolutes, not either black or white. |

![]() Sedimentary Rock Posts: 5 | end of discussion correction, all people are bi-sexual to some degree, whether they like it or not. People have allowed themselves, myself not withstanding, to become culturally conditioned into believing that everything that can be observed should be categorized. People need to stop having false epitome's about human sexuality it is far too random and bizzare and precious to break into categories and the subcategories, and so on. i hope everybody stops posting on this overpatronizing thread to a very simplistic unoriginal statement. cheers -Rabo |
