i;ve noticed lately that a lot of people think that you can only get STDs and AIDS from being gay. how many people think that? it is absolutely not true! you can get AIDS and STDs from all types of sex. anal, vaginal, and even oral! i don't care how you do it, but any type of unprotected sex can give you a sexually transmitted disease.
how many people believed that you can't get STDs from heterosexual sex?

people are in denial and are refusing to accept reality..
it's kinda like people who smoke who are still in denial that it is bad for them..
people asume that nothing bad could ever happen to them.. they think stuff like that only happens on tv!
some of the myths out there are so outdated.. the funniest one is people still think masturbating makes them blind! hehe. so funny..

Well you have some black preachers in some of the black churches who still think that way and they are some of the biggest whores around. Straight black women are contracting HIV from men who have sex with other men -- aka DL.
The below links have numbers for HIV/AIDS and STDs
For women Chlamydia is one of the highest rates of STDs. When you go for your yearly OB/GYN examination, please ask your physician to test for it. This is probably one of the most prevalent STD among heterosexual women.

I don't believe that if you're gay you're going to get STD's or AIDS, I believe that ANYONE is able to contract sexually transmitted diseases regardless of race, sexual preferences, sex, etc.

Well said!
AIDS affects thousands each year and they do not have to engage in homosexual sex. AIDS can be transmitted through heterosexual sex, blood transfusions and dirty needles.

Are you from 20 years ago? I think most people are a little more educatedon the subject, remember I said a little.

I think it's the people that are trying to be derogatory towards homosexuality that are saying that.

people are stupid, that's a fact, it's just that too many stupid people have too much power, which is why sh*t like this is still being passed around.
