For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I do not like the practise, but I accept that it is there and so I am of the opinion that a condom should always be used. I would also point out with regard to tearing of delicate skin that there are plenty of lubricants about which would go far to facilitate this. I cannot understand the mentality of anyone who would risk getiing HIV or even AIDS. They must be completely mad.
"you made quite a nasty set of comments in your removed post... "
Haha, I hadnt even noticed it had been removed.
I could put it again but the the pathetic censorship on this board will only remove it.
What i said wasnt anti-gay, it was my opinion and a pun.
so if i said that against all the advice that say smoking can kill people, but smokers continue against the advice, well thats fine by me as long as they only smoke and kill themselves and they dont try and get other people to smoke and kill them, would that get removed ?....
so please explain why my post was removed.
theres some very narrow minded petty people on here

What the figures may not reveal, and I think this is important in the context of your question, is that there were significant falls in new HIV cases amongst gay men during the 90s.
What has happened in the 00's is that rates have risen and stayed there (after massively dropping).
Researchers have suggested that the trend may be caused by a rise in unsafe sex as men no longer view HIV infection as deadly, while internet dating sites make finding a partner increasingly easier.
Fact is - back in the 80s, contracting HIV was practically a death sentence, whereas now it's a treatable condition.
So as to whether gay men have or have not 'learned their lesson' is a little off the mark, as the lesson has changed.

Wasn't it called the 'gay disease' because it was the gays who were first affected by it.
I refer of cause to the number of film stars and other celebrities, along with the gay community of San Francisco, who were struck down with the dreaded disease?
And I think dave50 was correct, as it spread to the heterosexual groups, there was a certain amount of shifting the responsibility.
