I have that, too. My sister is very liberal, very pro-gay and has Obama mouse pads, posters, etc. Years ago I pointed her to an article on FR about the AIDS gift givers, bug chasers and how some gays saw having AIDS as a badge of honor.

Here reply was: "How dare you say that about gays. How DARE you... blah blah blah." So I asked her if the article was incorrect and where? In her reply she called me a hater, bigot, racist and didn't bother answering my question. So I asked her again and she continued to call me names.

I think this is the article to which I pointed my sister: Bug Chasers:The men who long to be HIV+

Freeper Remedy posted that one.

Here's an article I posted in 2003: Acting Up In the article: The Gift Takes A Hard Look at Contemporary Gay Culture, Where HIV is Sexy and Prevention is Passé.
