Subject: RE: BS: Pope 'condones condom use in some cases
We will better prevent the deaths of "hundreds of thousands of young men" by education than by any other means. People who want to have sex are going to have sex. If you can find a way of cutting down on that save by issuing all men with padlocked barbed-wire underpants you're a better man than I am.
As for moralising about gay men's "lifestyles", I'm not about to do that. It simply isn't my business. It would be good if they were all fully aware of the potential consequences of their activities, same as for everybody else. Hence the bit about education.
I note, by the way, that, apparently, gay men have "lifestyles," whilst the rest of us just have sex-lives. Hmm.
