I'll ask you since you are gay. When people hear the word AIDS they think of gays first.
Soldiers under fire. They are against the gay lifestyle and feel it is wrong, abnormal. Gay soldier gets hit, lots of blood and maybe needs mouth to mouth also, to save him. Do you think those other soldiers will assist that gay guy? I think the chances would be slim to none.
You know what they say, be careful what you ask for.
Not all gay people have AIDS, and not all AIDS victims are gay.
The focus be on educating prejudiced soldiers instead of excluding gay people. We don't need to cater to people's ignorance.

I know what it means. Don't be a pretentious jerk.
So the "Gay Agenda" is getting people not to hate gays? Tell me about the "Black Agenda" next...

Of course not all gay people have aids BUT whether you like it or not the first people that comes to mind when they hear AIDS is gays. With all the propaganda the gay community can push it is not going to change the minds of people that know it is wrong/abnormal any way you look it it. Don't mistake common sense with prejudice.
I know nurses that have moved here because the odds of having to work on a gay person is very slim to none. They fear the risk of AIDS is too great in the bigger cities.

I don't respond to questions where homosexuality is called a "lifestyle". Sorry.

Propaganda? No, it's not that. Society is evolving, and you're being left behind. In fact, you're already in the minority with your opinions about homosexuality.
Well that's one way of getting out of answering a serious question. Your are hindered by a word
Yeah, I normally just would have ignored the question, but I think I've had enough of seeing the words "gay lifestyle". Anyone with any awareness about human sexuality doesn't use that type of terminology anymore. The term "gay lifestyle" is generally only used by people who are intentionally trying to be offensive, or who insist that people choose their sexual orientation. It's stupid, and I don't have time for it anymore.

HA HA HA HA! Then you better contact all those gay websites and gay magzines called the Gay Lifestyle.

Those people are wrong. Why do we need to cater to their ignorance?

There's nothing "common sense" about homophobia and ignorance.

Either they are ignorant of medical facts (which makes them crappy nurses) or they are simply homophobic (which makes them bad people). Maybe it's for the best -- I sure hope I don't run into a nurse like that.

Would you say that black people have a "black lifestyle"? Would you say that green-eyed people have a "green-eyed lifestyle"?
Being gay is something you're born with. It's about as much a "lifestyle" choice as your height.

Are they trying to offensive?

There is no such thing as "The Gay Life Style." In fact, there are many different gay life styles, just as there are many different life styles in the straight community.
Take into account the context and intent, dcsldcd.
Would you say that black people have a "black lifestyle"? Would you say that green-eyed people have a "green-eyed lifestyle"?
