I'm mixed on that. There's definitely fairies who are very loud and want the attention. But there's also a lot of other people who have gay relationships and simply want companionship, like everyone else. Nothing wrong with that. And God bless em.

The subject of this post is....


GAYS ARE OFTEN EXCLUDED FROM MEDICAL STUDIES


Then you come talking about relationships..

The gay community has made strides to separate themselves by culture and class to have "their own" ...
why would gays be specifically targeted for medical studies? Especially when they're not directed toward them?

You can't have it both ways! You're a minority or you're a majority!

CHOOSE!

come to the earth land and discuss the topic chosen not the topic you want to discuss... make your own thread about "gay relationships" I fail to see the connection.

Not if the public is made aware of it. Too high a HIV per centage and too flawed a system of testing.

You are right about that. The system is yes still very much flawed.

Just because you are not aware of any biological differences doesn't mean there aren't any.
