So I guess that means there is already a "study" on heterosexual bar scene promiscuity since the focus of this one is on homosexuals. Where i'm confused is that homosexuals say they are no different than anyone else. So why can't we save the $400,000 and use the results of heterosexual one-night-stand study? Sounds to me like someone thinks that gays are far more promiscuous.

All i'm asking is what would be the purpose of this study, unless someone had some sort of inclination that the gay-scene was more likely to promote promiscuity? Mere curiosity didn't put the study in motion, in my opinion.

The study is being done to help develop HIV prevention programs. I'm sure you're well-aware that HIV affects gay men disproportionately.
You keep using "promiscuity" as if it's unique to homosexual men. Again, I'll mention unwanted pregnancies and the millions of fetuses that are aborted every year. They don't occur because of homosexual sex.

This is outright bogus spending gone amok if it is to develop HIV prevention programs. I learned in the 1980's to use a rubber or not engage in sex at all. What has changed? We really need to spend OUR tax money to tell Argentinan gays to use a rubber? This is outrageous.

Not everyone is like you, I guess.
Are you also against smoking cessation programs, pregnancy reduction programs, and alcohol treatment programs if they're funded by the government? I accept that you might be. I just hope you aren't singling out gays because you don't like them.

Yes, I read it. Again, AIDS is nearing 30 years "old". Who amongst us doesn't know:
1) Alcohol promotes poor judgement
2) Unprotected sex can lead to sexually transmitted diseases.
I'll ask again: Why does MY tax money need to be used to determine why the gays of a civilized nation aren't using rubbers? It's pretty simple really.
As far as the "billions Bush sent to Africa to fight AIDS" is concerned, I believe we can all agree that uncivilized nations require additional assistance. Argentina is far from uncivilized. Let them use their own money to find out why gays have a proclivity for promiscuity (and thus AIDS), then mail us a copy of that report. Outrageous.
"The National Institutes of Health are paying researchers to cruise six bars in Buenos Aires to find out why gay men engage in risky sexual behavior while drunk -- and just what can be done about it."
Why Argentina?
BTW, where is Barney Frank on this issue?

Not everyone's as perfect as you, I guess.
It's a huge country. $400,000 is like spitting in the wind. If it upsets you so much, then contact your Congressman.
