Darkbloom - this is my public response (had some help from other posters, so thanks to all freepers) to your LIES charge:

66 percent of gay men report having sex with more than one partner in the first year of a "committed" relationship. Within 5 years, over 90 percent of all men have had sex with other men. SOURCE: GAY COUPLES by Joesph Harry, published 1984 p.116 Praeger Books.

A far-ranging study published in 1978 revealed that 75% of self-identified, white, gay men, admitted to having sex with more than 100 different males in their lifetime, with 28% claiming more than 1,000 lifetime male sex partners. Alan P. Bell and Marin S. Weinberg, HOMOSEXUALITIES: A STUDY OF DIVERSITY AMONG MEN AND WOMEN 308, Table 7 (1978).

A study published in 1997 produced similar results: of 2,583 homosexuals, only 2.7 percent claimed to have had sex with one partner only; the most common response, given by 21.6 percent of the respondents, was of having 101 to 500 lifetime sex partners. Paul Van de Ven et al., A Comparative Demographic and Sexual Profile of Older HomosexuallyActive Men, J. SEX RESEARCH 34 (1997).

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control similarly reported an upswing in promiscuity in San Francisco: from 1994 to 1997, the percentage of homosexual men reporting multiple partners and unprotected anal sex rose from 23.6 percent to 33.3 percent, with the largest increase among men under 25. See John R. Diggs, Jr., M.D., The Health Risks of Gay Sex (available at www.corporateresourcecouncil.org) (citing Increases in Unsafe Sex and Rectal Gonorrhea among Men Who Have Sex With Men – San Francisco, California, 1994-1997, MORTALITY AND MORBIDITY WEEKLY REPORT, CDC, 48(3): 45-48, p. 45 (Jan. 29, 1999)); see also Erica Goode, With Fears Fading, More Gays Spurn Old Preventive Message, NEW YORK TIMES, August 19, 2001 (in the past seven years, while the practice of anal sex had increased, with multi-partner sex doubling, condom use had declined 20 percent).

A 1994 survey of 2500 homosexual men published in the August 23, 1994 issue of THE ADVOCATE revealed that in the past five years 48% of the men had engaged in “three-way sex” and 24% had engaged in “group sex (four or more). See more at:

A long-term monogamous relationship also has a different meaning among those who engage in homosexual conduct. “Gay magazines are . . . celebrating the bigger bang of sex with strangers or proposing ‘monogamy without fidelity’ – the latest Orwellian formulation to excuse having your cake and eating it too.” Camille Paglia, I’ll Take Religion Over Gay Culture, Salon.com online magazine, June 1998 (available at http://www.frontpagemag.com/archives/guest_column/paglia/gayculture.htm).

Another author praises gay male couples for realizing that sexual fidelity is not necessary to show their love for each other and advocates that gay male couples can “provide models and materials for rethinking family life and improving family law.” Richard D. Mohr, In The Case for Gay Marriage, 9 NOTRE DAME J. L. ETHICS & PUB. POL’Y 215, 233 (1995). A recent study reveals that although 46% of gay men attending “circuit parties” claimed to have a “primary partner”, 27% of those men “had multiple sex partners(oral or anal) during their most recent circuit party weekend . . . .” Gordon Mansergh, Grant Colfax, et al., The Circuit Party Men’s Health Survey Findings and Implications for Gay and Bisexual Men, AM. J. OF PUB. HEALTH 91(6): 953-58(June 2001).

Given these staggering statistics of sexual promiscuity, the number of diseases that are found predominantly (and in some instances, exclusively) among homosexual practitioners comes as no surprise. Although nearly 64% of men with AIDS were men who have had sex with men, Basic Statistics, CDC DIVISION OF HIV/AIDS PREVENTION, June 2001 (available at http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/stats.htm), the list of diseases found with higher incidence among those engaged in homosexual conduct does not stop there. “Reports at a national conference about sexually transmitted diseases indicate that gay men are in the highest risk group for several of the most serious diseases.” Bill Roundy, STD Rates on the Rise, NEW YORK BLADE NEWS 1, Dec. 15, 2000 (“the increased number of sexually transmitted diseases (STD) cases is the result of an increase in risky sexual practices by a growing number of gay men who believe HIV is no longer a life-threatening illness”); see also Jon Garbo, Gayand Bi Men Less Lik ely to Disclose They Have HIV, GAYHEALTH NEWS, July 18, 2000 (researchers from the University of California, San Francisco found that 36% of homosexuals engaging in unprotected oral, anal or vaginal sex failed to disclose that they were HIV positive to casual sex p a r t n e r s ) (a v a i l a b l e a t http://www.gayhealth.com/templates/0/news?record=136).

The list of diseases found with extraordinary frequency among male homosexual practitioners as a result of anal sex include: anal cancer, chlamydia trachomatis,cryptosporidium, giardia lablia, herpes simplex virus, HIV, HPV, isospora belli, microsporidia, gonorrhea, viral hepatitis types B & C, syphilis. John R. Diggs, Jr., M.D., The Health Risks of GaySex 3 available at http://www.corporateresourcecouncil.org). “Sexual transmission of some of these diseases is so rare in the exclusively heterosexual population as to be virtually unknown.” Id. at 3 (emphasis added). Another disease found almost exclusively among homosexual practitioners is “Gay Bowel Syndrome” – “sexually transmitted gastrointestinal syndromes.” STD Treatment Guidelines: Proctitis, Procto-colitis,and Enteritis, (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 1993) (available at http://www.ama-assn.org/special/std/treatmnt/guide/stdg3470.htm); see also Jack Morin, ANAL PLEASURE AND HEALTH: A GUIDE FOR MEN AND WOMEN 22 (1998) (explaining that homosexual sexual activities “provide many opportunities for tiny amounts of contaminated feces to find their way into the mouth of the sexual partner . . . the most direct route is oral-anal contact”).

ALL THIS - LIES? I suspect that all of the information listed here, and in all of these other hits in response to the one question by this teen, you view as some kind of vast conspiracy. If so, let's see your counter proofs. Let's see the data that show how the homosexual culture has benefited the United States.
