QUOTE: Sodomy: Efficient Disease Transmitter     5/14/2003

[Warning: upsetting material]

The following excerpt comes not from Rev. Jerry Falwell, the “religious right,” or Sen. Rick Santorum, but a homosexual writer, Jack Hart:

”Many sexually transmitted diseases (STD’s) occur more often among gay men than in the general population. Several factors contribute to this difference: Gay men have the opportunity to engage in sex with more people than do most heterosexual men, and some practices common in the gay community — especially rimming [“gay” slang for oral-anal stimulation] and anal intercourse [sodomy] — are highly efficient ways of transmitting disease…..”

— Jack Hart, author, Gay Sex: A Manual for Men Who Love Men (Allyson Publications: Boston, 1991), p. 156, in section on “Sexually Transmitted Disease.” The writer goes on to write that "the increasing acceptance of safer sex" has lessened the spread of STD's, and then discusses the "most common" sex-transmitted diseases other than AIDS confronting homosexual men, including: chlamydia, crab lice, giardiasis, gonorrhea, hepatitis-A and -B, herpes simplex, nongonococcal urethritis, scabies, syphillis, and venereal warts.
