Then I moved to the South and no one even seems to think about it. Condom use is optional here where it never had been for me where I grew up. A few weeks ago, the WHO announced that they've been focusing their money and efforts in the wrong places, proclaiming that its no longer on epidemic status, which I think will only hurt things.

Its pretty bad. With drug cocktails and the like, people are living for longer amounts of time with it but....its still a pretty bad situation. In the US, black women are being hit hard, with AIDS now being the number one reason for death among black women age 25-40. 2/3rds of new AIDS/HIV cases in the US among women are black women. Poverty and lack of education are still decimating populations....but no one seems to care anymore.

Course people care, its just that some people are oblivious to the fact that it offends people. I bet half of the people that speak a bad name of AIDS donate money to Cancer and AIDS research. Its just pretty ironic and heartless, to say the least.

i wish AIDS were somehow linked to male impotence. I'd like to see the Viagra effort get up on some of this.

Don't worry Belle, you've still got a vast majority of the forum on your side, including me, because I support most of the points you make in most sections of the forum. Maximum respect to you

truth!!

i'm not disagreeing with you at all belle - i totally agree... it's a big complicated issue with a lot of factors involved and it's a very difficult battle to fight from many levels.

i was just getting fed up with the fact that individual people for some reason find it funny... out to blizz for listening

anyway i'll stop ranting about it now - i think i've made my point!
