Discounting any resultant injuries due to the sexual activity of homosexuals, if the body of a man who had experienced exclusive same-sex attraction his whole life were brought in to be autopsied for classification, there would be no possible way to know if he were a homosexual. None at all. Do all of the testing needed, sparing no expense, all the way up to the most sophisticated DNA analysis, and you would still have zilch.
In other words he diagnosed him with a full blown case of AIDS.
Exactly. When will we see a move to “Find a cure”?
What gave it away?
Was the guy showing up every week for a prostate exam?
OK, now my co-workers in the next cubilce are gonna wonder hat I’m LMAO for.
Thanks!
Here's the diagnosis.
What's the Rx?
Unfortunatly I have to see several doctors on a regular basis, 3 to 4 times per year. at the oncology clinic I go to on every trip for the last year I’m aked about tobacco and alcohol in detail, frequency, amount, when quit. They have had this info since my first visit 3 years ago and nothing has changed. Wednesday I asked why they didn’t ask about other risky behaviors that also ran up health cost. The nurse agreed that there are other behaviors that increase health risk but also agreed that it would be politically incorrect to mention them and that certainly no healthcare would be denied because of them.
the problem is making medical opinions part of the law - for doctors to follow - in the first place,
if handled differently altogether, as part of the right of medical practicioners to disagree in their opinions on medicine and healthcare (instead of the present cartels of professional orthodoxy we have today), then mo matter what that medical opinion is, the law, and legitimate medical practice, would be mute as to if it is “right” or “wrong” and thus NOT enforceable professionally or legally; in which case the “gay” man could chose to go somewhere else, as he has done, but there would be no “case” to be made in any sense;
similarly, a couple who brought their kid to a doctor looking for help to treat the kid because the kid said they were gay, could chose to refuse to do anything, giving the opinion that nothing was wrong with the kid, and
the parents would look for a different doctor
because of the law? no; because medical orthodoxy is no better than orthodoxy in science; there is always room
and reason for other opinions, and for doctors being
free to offer them and people free to chose them, or not
its called Liberty as opposed to government
If only our times were so enlightened...
A man goes to his doctor for a prostate exam.
After dropping trou, he leans forward as the doctor braces himself with his left hand on the man’s left shoulder. Then as he begins the exam, the man lets out an “Umph!”
Then, after several seconds of prodding around, the doctor says, “Aw-oh.” “What do you mean?,” the man asks.
Well, “I’ve got some bad news and some good news,” says the doctor. “The bad news is that you are totally homosexual.”
“Oh, my word!”, says the man, “But what’s the good news?”
“I am too!”, says the doctor, putting his right hand on the man’s right shoulder.

I would think it would be important to know a patient’s sexual history of which proclivities are a big part. I have been asked by a doctor if I were sexually active.
Personally I am anticlivities.
Why is this called adverse stereotyping? Sexually active gay men have observable traits as a group mean or average, which of course would not show up in every individual, because a bell curve always has outliers on one side and the other.
The "average" gay male trait are medically relevant, because they include a higher rate of infections from a mixture of oral, anal, and genitourinary bacteria, and a speedier impact on epidemic disease outbreaks because of sexual promiscuity.
If you´re a virgin homosexual, I tip my hat, none of this applies to you.
If you´re a monogamous homosexual whose only lifetime sexual partner is likewise strictly monogamous, peace be with you, none of this applies to you, either.
But if your level of oral-anal-genital behavior and your number of sexual partners is anywhere near the "average" for gay males, then this applies to you in a way that is major, damaging, and personal.
Gay health advocates necessarily face up to the fact that the gay population is over-sick and underserved. How would the researches and the healthcare number-crunchers even be able to tabulate the healthcare needs for the LGBT community, if they can´t even put the relevant information on the chart?
Pipe down and be grateful somebody is keeping an eye on your risk factors.Some day you may owe this person your life.
Because it reminds them that they aren't normal.
Good post, btw.
