You're "fairly monogamous," you're not an IV Drug user, you take some precaution with rergards to sexual activity (condoms, same partner, not too rough), and you aren't incarcerated... you know "Normal"... you're probably (like 99 44/100ths) not going to get AIDS.
You simply can't refute that. Your best argument seems to be, "Yeah ellem you're right, but we all must worry about this."
I don't know why you're arguing with me, clearly you DO agree with me.
Rape just doesn't cause all that much AIDS. Now blood transfusions cause demostrably more.
If you and you partner are fairly (FAIRLY) monogamous you're just not even remotely likely to get AIDS. You're just not.
I keep hearing about this epidemic of AIDS that's going to kill us all but it simply doesn't happen in Western civilizations. People who are normal (gay and straight) who take a modicum of precaution simply don't get AIDS save for a few anomolies.
I'm sorry you feel I'm assigning blame here but the fact of the matter is, statistically, "you pretty much have to be TRYING to get AIDS to get it."
Now prove me wrong. Go and tell me how many rapes, infidelities, and broken condoms caused AIDS. This is the real world not a Lifetime special.
1) Sex and Religion. If Sex and Religion were, in fact, the issue here - here's your short answer. Religion actually has a lot of things to say about sex and rightfully so. It is a very short window of time that sex won't kill you. You know since say... the invention of Penicillin to now. Prior ro that VD killed. Now we giggle. AIDS will still kill you but you have to pretty much be TRYING to get AIDS to get it. Yeah yeah, blood transfusion, yadda yadda... to get AIDS you pretty much need to be shooting up or have relatively unsafe sex.
So Religion was right to warn/forbid against promiscuity... kills of the flock, less cash in the coffers.
2) It's not about sex it's about pr0n. No one is trying to take your pr0n away. They want to tax pr0n and use the money to help pay for Kiddie pr0n investigations, and prosecutions.
Look if you ever find yourself defending kiddie pr0n or kiddie pr0nographers just stop and admit you lost the debate. It's unwinnable. If Buscho said they were invading Canada tomorrow to rid the North America's from kiddie pr0n the World would jump right in line and scream KILL CANADA. It's just how repellent kiddie pr0n is. Deal.
3) As for the Christian Right -- they're not calling for this. Some Democrat is -- clearly in an attempt to make Democrats seem more Family Friendly. Whatever.
Now SlashDopes if you don't understand number one... I'm with ya. I'd love to bang the snot out of every thigh high booted, thong showing, belly button ring wearing cock tease I see on the E train. It's just a really bad idea.
If you think for a second number two will go down as advertised you must really buy in to this Government is there to help us bullshit. That money is going in the same BLACK HOLE the 2B USD the FCC was supposed to use to wire up all of our schools. The Government isn't evil, it's incompetent and bloated. Cut it down immediately.
As for number three if you need anymore proof that all the politicians are whores then you'll never get it.
Please return to your orgies at your places of worship you Baalist bastards!
MS - Hello intrepid user. I know I've always allowed you to run as root before but check this out! You computing experience could be filled with and endless array of confusing dialogue boxes all basically telling you you're not root.
User - That sounds like it might suck.
MS - No no no, it's great! And it's pretty hard to implement. Oh and a whole shitload of legacy apps won't even install.
User - Why would I want that?
MS - It's safer.
User - Do you still let programs run as System?
MS - Well yes.
User - Why?
MS - Symantec asked us to support the Open Source Virus Community and we are!
Remember when you could tell people, buy a Dell and that would be a good thing because their hardware was good and their support was great? Well then they shipped all their support to somewhere in India or something. Then the hardware seemed just OK because the support sucked so bad?
Say hello to SonicWall.
Nice hardware, good OS, don't even think about calling them before 2100EST because if you do you will get what must be the WORST support in IT.

you basically have it.
But I was thinking more along the lines of you were active prior to your current exclusive relationship
Look.
You're "fairly monogamous," you're not an IV Drug user, you take some precaution with rergards to sexual activity (condoms, same partner, not too rough), and you aren't incarcerated... you know "Normal"... you're probably (like 99 44/100ths) not going to get AIDS.

Excellent. Been on your Seti team since like.. I don't know 2000-2001. My machine sucks but we try. (ie I can't bring myself to put Seti on my Powerbook :) )
Yeah, but I'm psychotically violent. Seriously read my posts. I have major issues.
No joke. I would have gutted those two like pigs. Throat to groin. Wouldn't have thought twice about it. Not any issue at all.
Ovid, you are a sane man.
