Not pro-promiscuity, but that bit about condoms just doesn’t fit.

WHY is this disease more prevalent in men who have sex with men? Simple: Less condom use, more partners. Condoms aren’t perfect, nothing is, but they generally work esp in a monogomous relationship and esp ones with noxonol-9 (spermicide, which also kills this and pretty much all bacterias, but not all viruses).

Plus the anal cavity is a very easy way for bacteria to enter the bloodstream.

The graph in the article is key. When you have a 30% infection rate, and men who have sex with multiple men per DAY, the probability of daily exposure is high.

Sodomites’ colorful sexual practices also amke them more susceptible. The “lifestyle” needs to be criminalized.
