TORONTO (AFP) - US boys hooked on gospel, techno and pop are more at risk of HIV infection than devotees of other musical styles, including "bling, bling" hip hop, according to a new study. Musical tastes may offer clues to rates of HIV infection, said researchers who tried to decipher the complex behaviors and attitudes of young men in the United States, at a global AIDS conference.

There must be a heck of a lot of young people into gospel around here considering all the teenager girls pushing baby carriages.

Who funds this idiotic stuff anyway? The UN?

See my study proposal correlating the decline in smoking with the decline in SAT/ACT scores.

Why do I find it hard to believe that gospel is really linked to higher rates of HIV? (Techno, I can believe, the homos love it, and it fits the brain-numbing culture they need to drown out their better judgement, however suppressed.) All the article says is that they don't use condoms as often... but they probably don't have sex outside of marriage anywhere near the rate of the general population.

They are only at risk for "V" since they can't hear the HI notes.
