Wonder why they spent all that money trying to find out what was already obvious?

I cannot for the life of me understand any pleasure for the recipeant of this practice.

I will try to be as delicate as possible. My experience has led me to find that there are many women who enjoy this experience, with suitable foreplay. That being said, I have found myself (a-hem) uncomfortable developing a relationship with those "ladys" who have discovered they like it. Makes ya wonder how they found out....Regards

Homosexuality is deviant sexual behavior and a mental illness

I would disagree with "mental illness" .I agree with the pink lobby...It's genetic. That being said, and my being a compassionate conservative, I propose we fund studys to correct this genetic abnormality and find ways to apply gene therapy to fix this obvious genetic defect.

(Excerpt from "Spikes")

Curmudgeon Emeritus -- Francis W. Porretto

May 7, 2003

With President Bush pushing a $15 billion international AIDS initiative, much debate is swirling around both the appropriateness of the measure and its size.

Every dollar of that $15 billion is to be spent on the well-being of non-Americans. Needless to say, that has the opponents of foreign aid upset. The international AIDS crusaders want the amount to be doubled or tripled. Between those two poles lie a host of intermediate positions your Curmudgeon is too tired to review in detail. Besides, they're insignificant compared to the far edges of the spectrum.

The justifications for the bill, and for the huge amount of money it allocates, are the statistical explosion of AIDS infections and deaths in the Third World, and the high cost of the drugs used to treat both AIDS and pre-AIDS HIV infection.

This isn't really a gay issue.

Due to difficulties in teaching the use of condoms, as well as supplying them, and due to objections from the church, health workers taough the Africans to engage in anal sex to prevent pregnancy.

While there is definately a homosexual compnent, it's not the main issue, by a long shot. This is borne out by the virtually equal rates among both men and women in Africa.

I doubt whether the pleasure of the recipient is of any concern whatsoever, particularly if she is female. Google "dry sex" sometime and see another big cause of females contracting the HIV virus in large numbers in Africa. That and the practice of female genital mutilation spells out to me that female sexual pleasure is dead last priority in many places.

Thanks for your comments. I didn't think my monolouge on homosexuality was that long, just complete. As to what causes aids -- I really don't know. Your theory is as good as any as far as I am aware. I do agree with your urethea to cesspool metaphor -- well stated. Actually, just the thought of anal sex gives me the shivers (in a bad sense that is.) For the live of me, I can't imagine what fun the gays see in anal sex.

Maybe aids is a result of multiple anal partners due to all the different bacteria being dipped into. Mix all that up and you get a super bacteria that morphs from hepetitis to the HIV or Aids strength strain.

Actually, I believe that both HIV and hepatitis are viral infections, not bacterial. Your point may still be valid, though.

Working in the lower ladder of the health care system for 24yrs. IMO viruses/bacterial infections are of some unknown link.

JOHANNESBURG, 22 June (PLUSNEWS) - Young South Africans are interpreting oral and anal sex as safe because they are not mentioned in HIV/AIDS prevention messages, an expert has said.
A survey conducted by professor Quarraisha Abdool Karim has revealed that 15 percent of 800 pupils aged 15 to 19 surveyed in KwaZulu-Natal province considered anal sex a safer alternative, despite it carrying the highest risk of HIV infection.
A local newspaper, The Sunday Times, quoted her as saying: "We need to make sure that our prevention messages are as complete as possible about the different ways that you can get HIV/AIDS."
Karim also said her findings showed that the country's HIV/AIDS awareness messages were too vague.

consider the clitoris surgery, piercing rituals. Anal sex may be common as well as much needle sharing.

Like I have said before no one would have sex in a septic tank and God designed that orifice two one way leak proof shinctors for a reason.

And lastly we wash our hands after wiping to prevent hepatitis and how many in the heat of sexual passion use the anal then to mouth mode. HELLOOOO instant hepatitis.

Then IMO you mix a few different strains of Hepatitis together by this practice and you have a bacteria morphing into Aids.
