I have read with interest Akenaton's posts and observed his rather distorted world view. I note that he seems to thinks that all homosexuals are male - he completely ignores lesbians, who are at less risk of Aids than heterosexuals,(so no grounds for denying them marriage then). He completely ignores the question of Aids amongst intravenous drugs users. The conclusion is that for some reason Akenaton is obsessed with, and terrified of, male homesexuality.

It is hard to avoid to conclusion that this is actually about Akenaton's fears about his own sexuality. I'm sure most of the posters on this thread would be sympathetic and understanding, but for your own safety, Akenaton, if you are not ready for face to face counselling, find a forum which can offer you a protected environment in which you can discuss your problems. This is not the right place.
