I Abstained From Sex for a Year to Donate Blood (NYT alert)

Homosexuals should *NEVER* be permitted to donate blood. Diseases which are a characteristic of this behavior, can linger for the rest of their lives. A year is nothing for a persistent or viral infection.

Absolutely. Why do they need to donate blood anyway? They are still a very small portion of the population and I don’t think they’ll make much difference in the totals.

We need to reject them as a health risk and ignore their whining.

I think the elephant in the room here is that some homosexuals are driven by a secret desire to pass on what is inside of them. It is part of the mental disease that they carry.

More accurately, men who have sex with men shouldn't be allowed to donate blood. It's BEHAVIOR that is risky, not the propensity. There are celibate men who have same-sex attraction who have never gone down that road.

You are absolutely right. We should err on the side of caution.

First, how can you trust a person’s word?

Second, doesn’t HIV hide in the body for a long time?. I’m not sure.

As I said, have not given blood since I learned that I may have some tiny risk of mad cow disease because I went to school in France in the 1980s.
