Akenaton, Your arguments have been about PREVENTION. You can't prevent the 1 in 20 people living with AIDS from catching AIDS, so obviously you are not talking about forcing then to be registered to be tested for AIDS and you are not talking about them from getting married because surely know that the safest thing for society would be getting same-sex couples with AIDS into supportive, loving, monogamous relationships.

Akenaton All of these figures I got from you.

(6300 new cases of HIV infection per year multiplied 70% being MSM) divided by 360,000 gay men is 1 in 79 new cases of HIV per gay man per year.

Obviously you cannot extrapolate a statistic about 1 in 79 to the whole population. Obviously it is not practical or just to enforce mandatory testing on 79 men to keep 1 from being infected.
