Stringsinger: "An element that hasn't been explored in the dealing with HIV has been "the world's oldest profession", a rampant source of infection on many levels, being excused by the designation of "sex worker", with unavailable "statistics" to establish relating sex to HIV.

Homosexual prostitution has not been statistically analyzed satisfactorily as well.

Prostitution in any form is abuse, justified by pretentious liberalism in order to further its continuance. Women are the most victimized and men should be prosecuted for accepting solicitation as sex abusers.

How's that for thread drift?"

Hurray!!...Not a thread drift!.....The spread of STD's refers to SEXUALLY Transmitted Diseases.
Now which would you tell your growing child to avoid?....heterosexual promiscuity, including prostitution?....homosexual promiscuity, including prostitution??....or ANY promiscuity?
But in order to teach/advise anyone, especially your children, the parent/adviser should not only be an example of not being promiscuous, but bring something, as in values, and the benefits of them to the person being 'advised'/taught....and that 'something' is not only preserving, but to be passed down.

(That way, when all the 'Grand Little Gnomes' are gathered around Dave, their is an energy coming off of him, that causes the 'Grand Little Gnomes' to want to grow up WITH that same energy, and want to grow up maintaining that energy, as a moral, in life).....and to maintain that energy, not only is promiscuity OUT of the picture, but family LOVE, IN the picture, and IS the picture!

Not only would it certainly curb the transmission of STD's, it would raise the level of the quality of life, for everyone exposed to it!

....and BTW, there is no 'hate', 'bigotry', hetero or homo phobias in the preceding post......so before your hair-triggers go off, put it away.

THIS has been my position from the beginning!....only a few resident idiots divert it to meaning homosexuals only, and accusing me of being 'homophobic'. I am pro-family, and pro-family love and cohesiveness....all other interpretations or perceptions do NOT apply.
We SHOULD be FOR the BEST..and stop making lame excuses, backed with false 'science' for anything LESS!
