"It's otherwise known as bestiality, and according to the article is a "safe" alternative to intercourse and therefore useful for fighting the spread of AIDS."

Syphillis is one. Comes from sheep.
I don't think they are speaking of beastiality for fags but alternative to screwing them which does not include animals.
