Most Gays want stable monogamous relationships like everyone else.

Uh-huh.

What a bunch of crap.

Twenty years ago, gays had all the rights of any other legal citizen in this country. What they didn’t have was special rights like now, which they shouldn’t have.

The mantra of gays is that what’s done in the privacy of their own bedrooms is nobody else’s business, and I couldn’t agree more. Keep it there.

Don’t go telling me how it’s none of my business and then go announcing to the whole world what you’re doing. I’m not interested. If gays didn’t go around announcing their disgusting lifestyle to everyone else and trying to force others to accept the abnormal as normal, they wouldn’t get any backlash.

If gays are going to be in your face about their lifestyle, I’m going to be in theirs and tell them I don’t like it and don’t want to hear about it and they shouldn’t get protected citizen class.

Nor do I believe that the majority of them are interested in long term monogamous relationships. That option has always been available to them. If they wanted to stay together they could without a marriage ceremony, it’s their choice. If they wanted their partner to inherit their stuff when they died, that’s what wills can be used for.

They’re the ones making the issue of it. If they’d just drop the political PC crap agenda, they’d find life a lot more tolerable. Nobody would pick on them for what they didn’t know about.

Calling someone a hateful b#tch isn’t hateful?

Let me guess, you consider yourself tolerant, too.

The big problem, with AIDS, is the initial infection with HIV leads to an auto-immune destruction of the T-helper cells. A vaccine might also initiate the auto-immune response, especially if it is keyed to the particular protein sequence, in the HIV virus, associated with the initiation of the auto immune response.

It may possible to develop a vaccine that will key to a different protein sequence of the HIV virus. If that can be done, the vaccine would a lower probability of initiating the auto-immune response that leads to AIDS.

Still, avoiding sexual promiscuity is the best preventive measure.

I didn't imply you were a homosexual. My post was in response to what appeared to me to be a very sympathetic portrayal of homosexuality and the homosexual lifestyle.

Regardless, may I say that your temper is apparently only exceeded by your limited vocabulary.

Truer words were never written.
