How Painting With Gay Blood Can Tackle HIV Stigma

Nearly 40 years ago, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration put a lifetime ban on the use of blood donations from men who have sex with men (MSM). This act is not only discriminatory and homophobic, but also aids in the national blood shortage. The ban is out-dated and creates a false pretense on HIV blood contamination.

To address this injustice, premium denim designer MOTHER is launching The Gay Blood Collection during this month's New York Fashion Week. This collection of art tools are a proactive and progressive stride towards ending the stigma surrounding gay blood.

This first-of-its-time collection created a unique ink from MSM blood in collaboration with pigment artist, Stuart Semple, with the intention to drive attention and raise awareness for this issue.

The collection includes Gay Blood Acrylic Paint, Gay Blood Fountain Pen, Gay Blood Paint Pen, Gay Blood Screen printing ink, Gay Blood Spray Paint.

“Gay blood”. Nope. The blood isn’t gay, it’s infected.

The depths of perversion and depravity of some people knows no bounds.

I wonder when God is going to drop the curtain on this world.

This is so twisted and evil, I hope it’s soon, because Divine Intervention is the only thing that will stop the evil running rampant in the world at this point.

Okay, my hivacceleratedaging post. HIV infection causes premature aging of 14 years. This aging causes diseases, like dementia, or HAND: HIV-Associated Neurocognitive Disorder; cancers; kidney disease; et al. Presumably, premature aging leads to premature death. HIV-accelerated aging occurs, even while being treated with antiretrovirals.
Doctors have known about HIV-accelerated aging aging since 2011. Since this is a well known problem of HIV infection, there is NO way blood donations should be accepted from HIV infected.
To look up FR articles on HIV premature aging, check FR keywords hivaging and hivacceleratedaging.

tackle a stigma? Painting with any kind of blood is disgusting. You just create more stigma doing something that gross.

I want to say these people can’t get any more sickening, but it will get worse.

I can see a day when they’ll insist the stigma of not being allowed to donate blood because they HAVE AIDS is too much and “illegal.” They’ll demand to donate blood anyway and require US to take precautions, like taking PrEP if we anticipate needing a transfusion. They’ll say the whole population should be on PrEP, COVID-style.

These degenerates are so self-unaware of how absolutely repulsed normal people are by things like this. I does the opposite of fighting stigma.

"This collection uses small traces of blood and is safe to use, wear, and handle."

Does anyone else recognize how INSANE this sounds to even half-normal people?

No blood from less than 1% of men is causing a shortage?

Yeah, their "reasoning" is just bizarre.
