Apparently in some areas there are myths that having sex with a virgin will cure AIDS. Which means that babies are very unfortunately targeted because they are virgins. Sad truth.

I watched a documentary on the subject and it is true. Not just baby's children too. The way I understood it, the medicine men of some areas say it will take the unclean away if you have sex with a virgin. It was a terrible documentary it showed the affects on the children and baby's this had been done to. Not to mention it spreads the virus. They were trying to educate the people more on aids prevention ,and that this is not a cure.

There is a belief among ignorant people that if they have sex with a virgin it will cure them of aids. This has led to the rape of children as young as 2 years old. Of course the children usually get infected with HIV. The myth is being spread by the Muslim overlords of Sudan to further destroy ethnic African culture.

I don't know where you heard this story, or even why it would make any sense at all. Have you ever been to Africa? I have worked with several people from that country, and I happen to think they are upstanding, moral people, in general. Traits that we have seemed to lose as Americans. The young man that I worked with at summer camp was absolutely remarkable, and he loved his family. That is more than I can say for a lot of people in this country. Respect and forethought are obviously outdated in a number of instances in this area. This is evidenced by the many young people, even as young as five years old, that show no respect or love for authority. I seriously hope that you were joking or just having a bit of fun when you asked this question. You certainly can't think that all people in one country think, feel, and act in one certain way. That would be like saying because a terrorist lived in this country, that all Americans are terrorists. It simply isn't true.
God bless you!

Yes, i saw such reports on different news media & it was documented. Not only babies, but virgin girls too. They have a stupid believe(God knows who spread it) that it prevents or cure Aids. In the report it shows many little girls as rape victims of men hiv +
