doesn't matter what decade the study was borne from. it continues today.
That isn't provable from what you offered. Offer studies from this decade at least. And don't generalize from a specific sample from a single geographical location for the whole of the population. And certainly throw out studies that use self-reporting. Those always have limited credibility.
do you actually believe for a minute that lesbians are a high risk hiv transmission category?
Where did I say that? In fact, I think I specifically said they aren't. We may be talking about a different one of the statistics provided in the link.

the studies prove that.
And so can/do straight males.
BTW, I can't believe a single thing in that link. This statement makes its extreme bias quite clear - "A phrase that has come up recently in this earth is "sexual orientation." This is a phrase made up by homosexuals to try to make themselves look less filthy than they really are."

For clarification- are you now talking about gays, blacks, morons, women.... witches? I know that there have been different studies on each decades ago. Which studies are you talking about again that still apply today?
you are new to this discussion and would benefit from scrolling up and reading all the posts before singling out posts you don't agree with.

dude.. sorry about that.. lesbians dont transmit HIV in numbers.

I am referring specificaly to your post which cited a Kinsey report more than 60 years old. It is laughable. Sorry that you missed the nuance of my post.

period.. gay men do.
Lesbians don't transmit HIV in numbers. I made the fact that I understand that clear in the post you quoted. "They aren't" (a high risk category) is what I said.
Gay men may, but straight men can and do transmit HIV in numbers as well.

It's hard to throw out self-reporting studies when looking at human behavior. Often that's all there is. How else would you get information on things like number of sex partners?

Your lack of knowledge is showing again. Of course it matters when the studies were from. Kinsey has pretty much been discredited because of his methology. AIDS has change sexual practices. The number of gays living more openly has changed behavior....and their willingness to talk to researchers.
dude.. sorry about that.. lesbians dont transmit HIV in numbers.
Last I heard, there is no recorded case of lesbian-to-lesbian HIV transmission through sexual contact.
