“gay men” and “women” in general are the affected groups.
theory: “gay men” aren’t so “gay” (or gender exclusive).

Kentucky girls have been looking pretty good lately. Or I could move to Idaho. New England is even "cleaner"? Puritans making a comeback?

You know why Redneck murders are so hard to solve?
There are no dental records and all the DNA is the same.
I believe that’s a Jeff Foxworthy joke.

I remember when STDs were unheard of in this area back in the 1960s. Then came the sexual revolution and within 15 years everyone I knew who had picked up some skank at an Oklahoma bar ended up with clap or crabs.

Um... Take a knee for bacteria, people. They have rights too. You carefully wipe off that supermarket cart handle with the antibacterial wipe. But then you go on Tinder and stick your parts into a stranger’s parts. Bacteria call that a freeway.

Diseases are oppressive. Especially ones that are among the least contagious such as gonorrhea or HIV.

Steve, medicine doesn't have words to describe how horrific your illness is. I've never seen it before, but Well, try to imagine if syphilis did it with cancer and got full-blown aids.
Can-a-syphil-aids?
Yes, can-a-syphil-aids. That has a nice ring to it, Steve. The good news is, you'll only be sick for two weeks.
Yes!
Because after that you'll be dead.
