well, they statistically engage in risky behavior. I would worry about blood given by a straight guy who just spent the last 6 months in West Africa.
Am I wrong or crazy? Nothing against Gay guys, I wish straight chicks had the same level of promiscuity. Life would be grand.
Luis Cox
tell gay people to not make aid's so widespread among their community and give hospitals better blood screening tech and plasma reading tech so we can do this without spending lots of money for no reason just cause we're afraid to say no
Ethan Jones
Are you wishing you were born in a time when you could still pick up Smallpox?
Fuck off.
Henry Parker
Isn't all blood tested for HIV/AIDS anyway?
John Watson
Can't it be tested for AIDS?
Angel Anderson
HIV antibodies may take a few weeks to develop after infection with the virus. If you were recently infected, you might have a negative test result, yet be able to infect the recipient of your donation. That is why you must not give blood if you are at risk of getting AIDS or other infectious diseases.
straight up googled your sentence
Noah Bennett
That's what I thought too. Which is why this doesn't make all that much sense.
I suppose when the disincentive of pregnancy doesn't exist you aren't so eager to wrap it up if the impulse takes you.
I would assume they test every pint, so it shouldn't really matter.
Josiah Gonzalez
Well, there's your answer.

Asher Moore
FFS just let these faggots donate blood. Then politely thank the faggot for the donation say that it will be very useful and helpful and when he leave flush it down the toilet.

antigen test - 3 weeks window period, expensive antibody test - 6 months window period, cheap
I think we'll pull through, just wish we'd wipe our hands clean off africa and the middle east, on both sides.
Oliver Bennett
There was a guy on Steven Crowder's podcast who said that laws that require people with HIV/AIDS to disclose their diagnosis with their lovers discourages people to get tests [because not getting the test and being ignorant is better than getting the tests and having to disclose the information to others]. He was a gay man who was arguing against the laws that require people do disclose their STDs to sexual partners.
With his own logic, he is essentially saying that gays don't get tested because it's easier/better to not know if you have a disease than it is to know and have to tell people. So there are potentially a lot of gays who have the diseases who don't know, and intentionally don't know because 'fuck laws'.
Personally I don't really care what your sexual orientation is, if you want to give blood you should be able to -- if you can prove you don't have a disease or any other physical condition that would be bad for you or the receipient.
They already test for anemia before you can donate [to protect you from fainting during donation], so why shouldn't we require that donors be free from transfusion-able diseases?
Josiah Parker
It was a great weekend, thanks for reminding me!
Josiah Anderson
If anyone is going to ask why HIV positive people can't give to over positive people, it's because different strains exist and it's possible to catch HIV twice
Tyler Lopez
All tests have cut off values for whatever they are testing. What constitutes positive and negative values for those tests help form characteristics such as sensitivity and specificity.
So testing banked blood invariably results in some degree of false negatives, and then you'd transfuse infected blood... into people who are presumably ill. Which could have been reduced by people just disclosing their risk of having these diseases.

Evan Russell
Hijack.
Catching HIV twice = That person's disease progression probably worsens and YOU BREED NEW HIV STRAINS
Leo Mitchell
I don't really understand what you're saying.
Surely there must be an undisputed scientific way of testing blood for blood-transfusion diseases. Are you saying that there are statutes that say "you don't have to test this blood if the donor said they had gay sex 6 years ago but 5 years ago is too risky"?
I honestly don't understand.
Asher Gonzalez
yeah why not? his hand look like coscto pizza. pretty chill

I have a personal blood bank. If i need blood i will be using almost exclusively my own.
Stay buttblasted poorfags.
Gavin Howard
It's not worth the effort or risk and no there isn't a full proof method.
Mason Bennett
And to add onto that the ban is only for if you had gay sex within 1 year prior to the donation.
Jaxson Perry
Shit, I never thought about that.
I have quite a few gay friends and I can't wait to fucking use that.
I may not have as many gay friends tomorrow....
Jack Clark
But there has to be a scientific method to determine if the blood is tainted, right? That would constitute "full proof" I mean.
Can we really not detect if my blood is infected with a disease that would be dangerous for blood transfusion recipients to receive?
Luke Reyes
Blood banks trust you to donate non-infected blood. However, testing is not perfect. A newly infected you can have 15 viruses per drop of blood, but the test only detects >50. (fake numbers) So, test is negative and you send infected blood to others. Therefore, these donation hindrances are to help cover for the test being imperfect.
Blake Wood
No
Brayden Watson
>Can we really not detect if my blood is infected with a disease that would be dangerous for blood transfusion recipients to receive?
When you're infected by HIV it takes some time for it to actually show up on tests, so the first few weeks your virus is flying under the radar.
If some fag decides to donate blood two weeks after contracting HIV, and then lies about having had gay sex, he'll be free to donate infected blood.
Luis Myers
I see. Well thanks for the red pill Sup Forumslocks.
Jeremiah Powell
Isn't that extremely homophobic? Straight people have diseases too!
Jaxon Carter
I am gay. I engage in m2m anal sexual intercourse but it is ALWAYS protected and if it isn't, I use PEP.
It is ridiculous that I cannot donate blood, I am safer than most heterosexual people who engage in promiscuous sex.
The reality is that I have to lie when I donate, and say that I have not had gay sex so that I can donate. That's what I have to do.
Samuel Long
Wait how do I go about doing this?
Kevin Lee
TMI
Caleb Baker
They do. The actual questions are "Do you or anybody you have sex with, engage in sex with multiple partners?" "Did you have anal sex in the past 6 months?"
Sup Forums virgins' blood are very valuable medically for saving lives, too bad we hate gays or people in general.
Camden Cook
The way I see it if a gay person really wanted to they could just say "I am straight take my blood" or something and get passed this, either way gays need to die
Joseph Perez
Wow man lying is so hard.
Hunter Powell
But there's no way to definitively prove if your blood is safe to donate. We know that gay sex makes you a much higher risk to have HIV/AIDS than a person who doesn't.
It's great that you take precaution, but the statute is designed to protect against everyone, not just you specifically.
Noah Clark
Followed up with: "Do you use protection?" "Anybody you have sex with has HIV, HepB, ...?" etc.
Nolan Taylor
Simple solution: make it legal and safe.
HIV is so uncommon these days and with all the precautions, there is literally no reason to discriminate. Instead of asking about gay sex, ask 1 question to everyone - HAVE YOU HAD UNPROTECTED SEX?
Yes - no donation No - donate and test.
Honestly, its 2016, even if someone did contract HIV from a blood transfusion, it is no longer a life-ending or even life-changing illness.
Colton Sanders
Oh okay so you're just baiting people now. Should've known better, it was an aussie after all.
Xavier Jenkins
>it's 2016 I'll take the bait.
If I told you that 16% of the population had trouble graduating high school because of their decisions in life that made it difficult for them to participate in rules and regulation that would make it easier for them to graduate, would tour solution be to A) address the problem with the 16% so that they can graduate with equal opportunities that the other 84% have or B) make it easier for everyone to graduate just to cater for the 16%
Cooper Young
B most likely, if you're going to be realistic about this and not a pedant.
There would be a multitude of reasons why the 16% can't get by in the current system, it would be insanely costly and difficult to fix all those reasons and issues
It would be much simpler and more cost-effective to change the system top-down.
Cameron Nguyen
Pretty sure the 80s restriction was because gays were overly prone to sexually transmitted diseases.
Anal is degenerate, harmful, and spreads disease.
Adrian Campbell
pretty sure the issue is it's a waste of time/money you fucking retard
Joshua Gutierrez
Better solution:
Chemically castrate yourself.
Christian Carter
Go read your bible, christfag, your lame shit opinion means fuck all to me, cunt.
Leo Cox
Bible is against castration.
Christians don't read the bible. They read the gospel.
Catholics, Jews, Protestants, and Orthodox read the bible.
I repeat: chemical castration
I add upon: should be mandatory for homosexuals because anal degenerate, harmful to the body, and spreads disease.
It is both morally and scientifically degenerate.
David Rivera
This. Fuck these fags. I don't want fag aids blood. How will the libs defend these fags when some feminist child gets aids thru a transfusion?
Brandon Sullivan
But I bet you're circumcised, aint you?
Dylan Moore
Yes. Medically as an infant.
I didn't have some old Jew nibble on my baby penis.
Circumcision is proven scientifically to be beneficial for health and well being over non-circumcision.
No amount of subjective third-party pleasure meme statistics will change this.

"We cant let in every fucking poor fucck from Africa, thats not sustainable" "BUT MUH POOR BABE PICTURES"
"We already have fuckstrict gunregulations and the Paris shooters used already illegal and smiuggled weapons" "MUH CHILLUNS"

Charles Peterson
So you're whining that you want to kill urself because faggots who are trying to save your life can't save your life with their thoroughly tested faggot blood after you cut your wrists and need a faggot blood injection which some faggot graciously gave you (between anal sex sessions) in order to save your worthless life?
No matter what generation you were born you will always be a whining bitch op. This is the best time to be alive you massive faggot.

Yea, because we don't already have enough catastrophes with infected blood. It keeps happening, and this is now when we do not let faggots donate. When they can donate freely only more people will get diseases trough donations.
