medical people who should know better sometimes are bigoted.  I mean, the Red Cross is always asking for blood donations, and this is one of their guidelines for who is or is not an acceptable doner....



HIV, AIDS
You should not give blood if you have AIDS or have ever had a positive HIV test, or if you have done something that puts you at risk for becoming infected with HIV.

You are at risk for getting infected if you:


are a male who has had sexual contact with another male, even once, since 1977

That's just not right. So in other words you are not at risk for AIDS if you are not a male who has had sexual contact with another male since 1977? So this means you could be a male who has had sexual contact with everything else imaginable as long as it wasn't a male. It seems that the medical profession would have enough sense to realize how stupid this sounds!!!

what about women that have had sex with men that have had sex with men? Alma just got eliminated...as well as Lureen.

and I guess you would have to eliminate Monroe since he had sex with a woman that had had sex with a man that had sex with a man.

this gets complicated real quick!

Yes it does get confusing really quick and demonstrates even more how stupid the medical profession is. What are they living in a cave or something? I guess they still have the idea that if a man has been married or is married that it means he is straight. And same for a woman.

and no gay man has ever had sex with a woman.

or even that gay men are not the ONLY carriers of HIV...duh!

Time to get everyone moving  :) This group is from Brazil and I saw them on TV right about the same time as Shakira. They haven't made it to the US yet as far as I know. And by the way I have no idea what they are saying.
