Erm, well, I for one do think that the medical dangers of sodomy are extremely serious and are far too unreported due to the whole political correctness of the situation.

Which is why it rather annoys me to read that whole thing you posted, because it makes SUCH a big deal about the dangers of oral sex. No, I'm not claiming oral sex is entirely and utterly safe, it's not, but the level of danger between oral sex and sodomy (where ACTUAL blood -and- feces intermingle) are light years apart. We're probably talking about a danger difference comparable to crossing a street -with- the light versus driving with a 0.25 blood alcohol level.

By going on in a tirade against oral sex (which if it were true would probably have 90% of the women in the U.S. in hospital beds), it completely delegitimizes all the other arguments. It's frankly not all that different from people who delegitimize all sane discussion about the dangers of drugs by claiming that marijuana is just as dangerous as crack cocaine.

I'm afraid compendiums like that which mix serious issues with such alarmism and exaggeration do serious damage to getting any rational discussion on the subject.

What I posted was more series than a hurricane of heart attacks on a dying AIDS patient.

Translation for: "I'm afraid compendiums like that which mix serious issues with such alarmism and exaggeration do serious damage to getting any rational discussion on the subject." = I'm PROGAY and there is no amount of evidence against it that will convince me otherwise.
