Why are these transmission rates so much higher than those for heteros?......I would think it obvious that promiscuity, risk taking, and addiction to anonymous relationships may play a part....wouldn't you.

I am not a doctor, scientist or statistician so I will stay away from conjecture on what causes higher transmission rates if you don't mind.

Of course, there may be another reason associated with the physical practice of male to male sex......is that what you had in mind?

I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about so, no, whatever 'that' is, is not what I had in mind. Would you care to explain?
