Precisely. A prostitute is able to donate while a monogamous gay man is not. (I don't mean any offense to sex workers by that; prostitution should be 100% legal)
Anywhere from 1% to 10% of the population. But yes, you're absolutely correct. My reply wasn't meant to detract from the original post at all; I'm ALL for artificial blood! Of course I'm gaymarried to a biomedical engineer so there's that.:P
1. Heterosexuals have more anal sex than homosexuals just by sheer volume (probably not by proportion though.
2. African Americans are at higher risk for HIV than whites are. Should we just ban blacks from donating blood because they are at a higher risk of contracting and transmitting HIV?
I'm sorry but "these people have higher risk factors" is not acceptable when you can just screen the damned blood.
Serious question. Seemingly none of the big players in the whatever-this-service-is-called industry seem to want anything to do with porn. I would LOVE to use a reputable mainstream payment services provider to buy porn but they're all so sexually repressed that they just shut down any accounts dealing with anything sexual.
but an autodrive system with no manual override must be 100% fail-safe.
Why? If human drivers are (for example) 80% fail-safe, why is 85% fail-safe not good enough for the first driverless cars? It's still a real improvement that will still save real lives.
Not that voting with my wallet is relevant here; they don't make anything interesting anyways and my 3DS XL is a piece of shit.
I can kinda maybe understand being upset at us queers demanding to be in every type of media ever, but when Nintendo acted to exclude us as they did here, FUCK THEM.
The game contains what it contains; don't like it? Don't play it. Send a message with your wallet, rather than pissing and moaning about a game you didn't create not behaving like you want it to. How about I do both?
Okay, that makes perfect sense. Which is why I'm angry with Netflix as well as Comcast. Instead of paying Comcast to peer with them, they should be paying their provider Cogent for better peering across the board. Netflix is guilty of harming net neutrality. Not necessarily as much as Comcast, but Netflix certainly isn't helping by "caving in" like they have.

They'll still fall out of my ear and sound like shit when they don't.
You might want to go back to like 3rd grade civics where you learn about the separate branches of government.

You know what else would help the shortage? Let gay men donate.

Seriously, since when is somewhere in the filthy, dirty South a bastion of progress when it comes to broadband?

It's Lufthansa policy to land manually whenever possible, as to not lose manual flying proficiency.
Nice! Respect gained for Lufthansa.
No they aren't. "Your" is pronounced "yo-er". "You're" is pronounced "yoo-er".
Oh just SHUT the FUCK UP. How DARE we hold our country to a higher standard than you do. How DARE we have an opinion on the matter.
really?
How am I a weak link in the evolutionary chain? And how do you know I won't procreate?
I'm a ginger too, you insensitive clod!
I'm not a pedophile. And you can just come try to kill me. You'll find your worthless carcass riddled with hollow points in no time. ;)

I am not a motherfucking anomaly.

Fuck you and fuck your "traditional values". The world is becoming a better place as your kind becomes less and less relevant.

Another subgenre of EDM.
What on Earth does the Federal Reserve have to do with any of this?
Yes. From the airport. Which is "in on it".

Sounds like Cogent's problem.
