Quoted wrong post delete please you darling mods
Not sure why you deleted your response to me but I'll answer anyway.
Nope I will not remove it, I could fuck a different girl unprotected everyday for years and as long as I didn't know I had an STD I could still give blood, whereas a gay person who has been faithful to one partner for an extended amount of time can't it's based off outdated stereotypes. Also I'm not going to cool people who are afraid of needles pussies as a crippling phobia is not sonething staff want to deal with especially someone who immediately passes out
Apparently you don't read your own thread because male homosexuality sadly is
still a big risk group for HIV <url=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.820022-Poll-Donating-blood?page=5#19794745>as I said on the last page.
Yes you could do a different woman every day but the risk of HIV infection in receptive vaginal sex is 23 times lower than for anal one and insertive 15 times lower. And gays aren't by far the only factors, you can be permanently excluded if you even once injected illegal drugs, having been or having paid for sexual acts, showing symptoms or having had sex with any person that showed possible symptoms of AIDS (like high fever, night sweats or big weight loss) and having been born, lived in, received blood transfusions in or had sex with someone from Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Niger, or Nigeria since 1977. And a >3 months stay in the UK between 1980 and '96, even if you're a Vegan.
There's a whole bunch of risk groups that get singled out even if it might seem ridiculous, you're just taking one you don't like and calling it homophobia.
Could long-term homosexual couples be allowed to donate? Probably I guess but that's not my call and so far it's looking like there seems to be a definitive increase in promiscuity in the homosexual male population compared to heterosexuals, which is fine in itself but not what you want for a group that already has a higher chance of HIV. Did you know that in 2009 in the US young gay males (13-29) made up 27% of the newly infected?
Yeah, you don't call people with fear of needle pussies. So don't call people who try to keep the chance of accidentally getting infected with an incurable disease a bit lower "backwards arseholes" either. It's not only unprofessional but also completely missing the issue.
