Uh, I'm pretty sure that misconception was put to rest years ago. It's well established that AIDS is more common in the intravenous drug use community than the gay community.

AIDS is still common within the gay community.

Not nearly as common as it once was.

My point is that it's a social stereotype that was dismissed a long time ago. And that being gay doesn't mean you've got AIDS. Thus, I disagree with the post.

I completely agree. Yes, AIDS does exist within the gay community, but it also exists within the straight community and, as you said, even more so within the intravenous drug community. I cannot believe that people in today's society still buy into this stereotype. How much research needs to be done do lay ignorant misconceptions like this to rest?

I don't understand why people associate aids with gay.

Might be because of Freddie Mercury. He was gay and died of the disease. I'm pretty sure Queen didn't do drugs, either.
