i think it came from gay men and their sexual practices ~ it's not hygenically and medically safe... and then, with time, it spread to the heterosexual population.

NO MATTER where you say it started from, it just so HAPPENS to like to infest gay men, huh?>?? GET REAL!! i guess their sexual practices are HIGH on the cleanliness scale, huh?

does anyone think their SEXUAL PRACTICES might play a part in it??

Definitely the sex with green monkeys theory. Ya know, it just makes so much sense .

it came from straight men in the jungle having sex with monkeys
edit
oh and dont be such a homophobe, its their life if they want to have sex with the same sex their option, we are all humans so we should all be entitled to the same rights!!! who says its not hygenically and medically safe?- where is the clinical studies, evidence (dont even say the bible- not evidence- the bible is not a fact it is an opinion!!! ) tell me where is the proof- and not every straight person is the perfect person who has never done anything wrong!!!

You need serious education my friend. To enlighten your path, I will answer your question.
Genetically speaking, the HIV virus is the product of years of continuous evolution. HIV is one of the FASTEST evolving viruses in the history of evolution, capable of replicating itself at a rate of 30,000 copies in a very short time. This allows the virus to escape from protease inhibitors easily, modifying its genetic composition yielding to stronger, more resistant virions. Its phylogenetic history has already been reconstructed by Beatrice Hanns and colleagues in 1999, using DNA sequence determination via polymerase chain reaction and other methods, establishing a retrospective interesting history, in order to trace the relationship between the SIV virus (primate) and HIV (human). The HIV virus divides itself in two categories: the HIV-1 virus, and the HIV-2 virus. These viruses are different, both in origin and development history. Among the analyzed HIV-1 subtypes there are the following: l HIV-1/455, HIV-1/LAI, HIV-1ELI, HIV-1/YBF30, HIV-2/ROD,HIV-2/D205, among others, compared with SIV-1 primate viruses: CPZ, CPZ CAM3, CPZ and ANT. DNA analysis of both families determined that BOTH viruses are related, and that because HIV has traces of DNA present in the SIV virus, it has been determined the origin of HIV came from SIV, present in sooties mangabyes and other monkeys via several different ways of transmission paths. So, how did the virus passed from monkeys to humans? In west Africa these monkeys have been consumed for food since ancient times. Because human and primate genetic phylogenies are related, this gave the HIV virus the opportunity to evolve and transform in what is today HIV-1, AND HIV-2. The protein analysis of the virions surface confirmed this suspicion, as it was found similar genetic coding in both virus forms. The HIV virus exists in nature in other animals as well. The FIV or Feline Immunodeficiency Virus affects higher order cats and other felines (cheetahs, lions, lynxes and such); however because these animals have evolved to smooth the virions trait, the effects aren’t as catastrophic as HIV. Regular house cats FIV works in a similar way to HIV, it is transmitted trough bites and wounds, and its not immediately related to higher order cats. This subject matter is very complex and extensive, and unless you are involved in some medical work or upper level classes university, its not easy to comprehend. I hope to have answered your question, I took my time to do so as this is UNVELIEBABLE that at the end of 2006 someone lacks this information.
Its A VIRUS FOR GODS SAKE!!! If you take biology you will understand viruses are not exclusive of sexual practices or genders. Who says gay sex is not medically safe? Are you a professional that can state this? Can I see the data and results of your investigation? Asumptions are wothless without support. BTW do you know why many people died in the 80's b/c of this way of thinking: ignorance and missunderstanding. MANY both straights and gays alike. It was more apparent on gays because it is a smaller population, plus all the stigma. Then straights started to show signs of infection, and then someone said opps theres something wrong here....The virus wasnt well understood and this asumption was made even before AZT was developed.

It came from apes to humans in Africa. Here is a link that describes it in depth I have checked a lot of sites due to health class research! I like the information on this web page the best! http://www.avert.org/origins.htm
