iMusket,

This thread for most of us is whether or not you are perfect. See the title.

Akenaton, We have all acknowledged that HIV is a problem. We have all discussed and generally agreed about what is being done.

As far as what can be done. What you seem to be proposing seems impossible short of detention camps to protect your men from their own nature. Keep in mind that HIV is not the only risk arising from the recklessness of young men. Drunk driving, speeding, risky recreation, illicit drug use and violent crime are all highest among young men.

"Education, Inclusion and Outreach" worked for MOST kids my age when I was growing up. It is the only feasible approach available now.
