There are reasons why certain types of behavior have historically been condemned, even though they were consensual.

I remember the joke from the 80s, a gay guy comes out of the Doctor’s office all happy and smiling, and his friend asks him why he’s so happy and he said, “It’s Syphilis!”

I think if meth drug arrests required a syphilis test, it’d probably be around 75-percent being positive. But I doubt if the police or court system really want to connect the two dots.

“Syphilis Is Raging Again (among male homosexuals)”

Isn’t that just lovely?

The male homosexuals are the prime users of cruise ships’ pools and hot tubs, and for decades have been exposing other passengers to HIV and e-coli (we know what oriface THAT comes from, and what “they” do). Now syphilis?

And the CDC puts the kibosh on cruising because of a cootie that is 99.8% not a problem?

So if the homosexuals are syphilis laden, does that make syphilis a new boutique disease, to be worshiped, like HIV?

“These are just some of the trends causing overall national cases of sexually transmitted diseases to hit an all-time high for the last six years in a row, reaching 2.5 million.”

About the same period of time since “gay” mirage was forced on society. Imagine that.

Note to self: Participation in raging sex parties and doing meth is probably not a good idea.

Ya think?

“It does not seem like a big deal.”

For him, this brain-destroying infection is a badge of honor.

I remember an elderly doctor telling me once he would go with the health department to the home of those identified or suspected of having syphilis - and jab them with penicillin right on the doorstep - before they could even say anything. Now this practice is illegal.

… (S)pecialized public STD clinics, like the one where (Dr. Ina) Park works, have been shutting down nationwide. One reason is persistent underfunding of public health programs, a trend laid bare during the coronavirus pandemic.

Another reason is the Affordable Care Act. In a strange way, the 2010 law intended to expand access to health care actually contributed to the closure of STD clinics. “Honestly, I think everyone thought they weren’t going to be necessary,” said Dr. Karen Smith in 2019, when she was the director of the California Department of Public Health. She says once Obamacare was in place, the thought was that STD testing would happen in primary care clinics. “We sort of all assumed that if you’ve got health insurance and you’ve got access to a doctor, that’s all that you need,” she said. “It turns out that that’s not really all that you need.”

People still had affairs that they didn’t want to talk about with their family doctor. And some family doctors didn’t want to probe into their patients’ sex lives. Young people, in particular, prefer clinics geared to them, out of their parents’ purview. “That loss of anonymous care really was a problem,” Smith said. …
Well well well. Blaming Obamacare?

Younger generations of gays don’t see HIV as a threat because it can be suppressed with a pill. Long term side effects of those powerful antivirals such as serious liver damage that can take decades to show up are very hard to get 20-year-olds to care about, so they view HIV as if it were no more serious than a cold. As a result, they’re not just having lots of sex with multiple partners, but lots of it without any protection whatsoever. It’s not shocking at all that all the other STDs are skyrocketing in that population.

I’m not a doctor, and I don’t play one on TV, but I think if you put your schemper in another man’s bobo, or vice-versa, bad things are gonna happen.

You want HIV, you know what to do.

You don’t want HIV, you know how to avoid it.

Easier than COVID.

What would be the response if a consensual Christian practice results in the stats we see for sodomy. Among other infections, bout 80% of new HIV cases among men due to this? https://peacebyjesuscom.blogspot.com/2019/10/negative-effects-of-homosexual.html

“In California and the US, about half of syphilis cases are in men who have sex with men. More than a third of women in the western United States who have syphilis also use meth, a drug that has seen its own surge in recent years.”

Sounds like a non-problem for most of us here.

A lot of our problems would rapidly and massively recede if we simply abolished the welfare system and socialized medicine. The leading function of government today is to subsidize and enable socially and personally counterproductive behavior because, you know, fairness. We get what we pay for.

Let people with AIDS, syphilis and other STD's pay for their own medical treatment, without subsidizing them through direct government payments and government mandates on health insurers. We would have a lot less AIDS and syphilis if people who played stupid games actually won stupid prizes.
