It appears to me to be around 2002. Here’s a report from the CDC in 2010 that tries to diminish the behavior as the reason for poor health:

“In addition to considering the needs of LGBT people in programs designed to improve the health of entire communities, there is also a need for culturally competent medical care and prevention services that are specific to this population. Social inequality is often associated with poorer health status, and sexual orientation has been associated with multiple health threats. Members of the LGBT community are at increased risk for a number of health threats when compared to their heterosexual peers [1-5]. Differences in sexual behavior account for some of these disparities, but others are associated with social and structural inequities, such as the stigma and discrimination that LGBT populations experience.”

Shifting blame from the perverted behavior to their social/economic situation. “It’s really not their fault.”

yes, the CDC will certainly try and shift the blame to someone else for the poor state of the health of homosexuals.

If Phil Robertston was too blunt, and this doctor too clinical, then the words of Paul in his letter to the Romans are a good choice: “men with men working that which is unseemly”.

The anus does not equal the vagina. The misogynists disagree.

Even the (extremely rare) monogamous homosexual activity is a disease factory.

I didn’t know the risks in lesbian sex, though.

Is this a consensus among scientists?

If you follow the link, there is a portion of the paper that addresses those concerns.

To all of the lawyers out there, the health risks of cigarettes are being used to prohibit smoking. Could states that are determined to maintain marriage between a man and a woman use the same justification, and could it hold up if it went to the Supreme Court?
