Another One? WTH is up with these GOP Lawmakers?? -- CAMPFIELD SAYS ITS Virtually Impossible to get AIDS FROM HETEROSEXUAL SEX

Thread: ANOTHER REPUB STEPS IN IT! Rep. Steve King: "I’ve never heard of a girl getting pregnant from statutory rape or incest"

Trying to throw the election.

White conservatives must really be gritting their teeth right now.

Ok, so I'm not crazy if you're thinking the same thing I am thinking.

Because otherwise it makes no sense. Unless its all mind-control of course.

Personally, throwing the election is the occam's razor solution here.

There must be a lot of stuff coming down the pike if Repubs are going hell to leather to purposefully LOSE another election.

We had the same dynamic happening here in the elections when Rudd one.
It was blatantly obvious Howard was doing everything in power to lose that election.
Of course, the financial crisis of 08 happened, so with hindsight it was very clever politics.

Well the statistics don't lie.
Most HIV transmission are from blood products, sharing of drug parephenalia or when it comes to hetro sex, the hubby is on the down low without telling his wife.

He didn't say IMPOSSIBLE he said VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE.

And also full blown AIDS in becoming rarer due to the meds that are now available to bring HIV under control.

Notice he said AIDS and not the lesser HIV.

Sematics and all that.

no worries OP all the retards that post on this site will STILL vote republican that's cuz their daddy did and his daddy did and so on and so on.
You see it's easier if you just keep doing the same stupid fucking thing; that way you don't have to do any thinking

I thought I had heard of this before, the story is from January.

most of these politician types are perverted sexually repressed and ashamed closeted self-hating homosexuals who come up with crazy ideas.

Um... I hate to defend stupid politicians, but technically he's correct.

Blood needs to be exchanged between sexual partners in order to transmit aids. This is easily done via anal sex, because tissue is often broken, but not as easily done through vaginal sex. If heteros engage in anal sex they, obviously, are more at risk.

Compared to gay sex, it's extremely rare.

Wtf?
Millions of women have AIDS and they didn't contract it through lesbian action. Maybe that's the key. He was only thinking of MEN and that's it's rare for MEN to contract the disease through heterosexual relations.

Women don't count.

- Worldwide, women constitute more than half of all people living with HIV/AIDS.

- For women in their reproductive years (15–49), HIV/AIDS is the leading cause of death.

- Women are at least twice as likely to acquire HIV from men during sexual intercourse than vice versa.

- A study in South Africa recently suggested that nearly one in seven cases of young women acquiring HIV could have been prevented if the women had not been subjected to intimate partner violence.

- In 2011, 57% of pregnant women living with HIV in low- and middle-income countries received effective drug regimens to prevent new HIV infections among children.

In Sub-Saharan Africa, women constitute 59 percent of all people living with HIV/AIDS. Among young people aged 15-24, the HIV prevalence rate for young women is twice that of young men.

I don't think WOMEN are catching AIDS from homosexual relations!

It's impossible to get aids from heterosexual sex, and its impossible to get pregnant from being forcibly raped.

They're working for the wrong side! The side with horns.

This is true.

They won't tell you this because you might be tempted to have more unprotected sex. In reality, it takes multiple exposure plus poor diet to become infected with HIV as a heterosexual.

HIV is not diagnosed in Africa as it is in the west. Merely having symptoms is enough to be diagnosed with HIV in Africa without any blood tests.

Circumcision and the lack there-of also plays a role. Your foreskin was there to keep your gland moist and also kept white blood cells between the foreskin and the gland to protect against disease. HIV loves these white blood cells and without them, you are less likely to get HIV.

However, we could just be racists and say "if you have sex with blacks you get AIDS".

Actually he is half right. It's very difficult for a man to get AIDs from a woman. I'm not even sure they have any confirmed cases where they could prove 100% the man didn't have male partners.

AIDs virus is way more concentrated semen then in women's vaginal secretions which are basically just like spit which is known to be a bad aids transmitter.

Thing is, still, this guy is probably 100% certain to be a troller of men's restrooms if he cares this much about the issue.

The Congressman is correct.

AIDS is not transmitted thru vaginal sex to women unless the female has an open lesion and the male has AIDS. Likewise AIDS is not transmitted to a man unless he has an open lesion and she has AIDS.

People with open lesions usually avoid having sex because it hurts like hell.

If in fact AIDS were transmitted thru vaginal sex then almost everyone would have AIDS by now. But of course that has not happened.

Think about it. There have been trillions of vaginal sexual intercourse since AIDS came on the scene. In addition most people have had multiple partners. Yet no one is getting AIDS that way.

Heterosexual anal sex can transmit AIDS because the anal cavity tears more easily whereas the vagina doesn't tear except in rape due to a lack of lubrication. The anal tear allows an AIDS infected man to transmit AIDS to a woman.

For a woman to transmit AIDS to a man would require an open lesion or a tear along with an open lesion in the man. Thus this method of transmission is less likely than if it is the man who has AIDS during anal sex.

its true,ask your doctor.

Impossible to get aids from hetero sex? So if a guy gets aids from an infected needle, has sex with a girl, the girl is any less likely to get it than a guy he could have had sex with?

this is all a distraction folks....why even pay attn to it....this is just one hand

Ivory Tower Syndrome

I love the old "had sex with a monkey" story. How the fuck are you going to catch a monkey, let alone fuck it?

It is virtually impossible to find a politician with a brain. That, I do believe would be provable in court; now.

I would normally agree but I have had 2 doctors tell me the same thing. They said heterosexual white men not engaging in IV drugs or anal sex almost couldn't get HIV if they tried.

Don't kill the messenger.

I've heard this before. Some documentary, I don't remember the name of it. The claim was something like if a husband and wife had unprotected sex daily, for years, and the man was HIV positive but the woman wasn't, there was less than a one percent chance she would contract the disease.

That's all I got. Anyone know what the doc was by chance?

There are so many alternative theories from credible scientists as to what HIV/AIDS really is. It is so hard to separate fact from fiction, science from myth.

There are some scientists who believe AIDS has a bacterial component to it - which would assist the theory that heterosexual couples are less likely to pass it on - anal sex on the other hand is more likely to pass on some sort of bacteria that further may weaken the immune system especially if coupled with HIV.

I have no idea, not a scientist, I don't share the beliefs I listed above, it's all way over my head, bottomline- this is a complicated disease

Maybe it was sick or something.

The matter is simple enough--you don't need a degree in microbiology.

The senator incorrectly used the limited term contract when he meant the more powerful term spread.

It is true that a woman can get HIV from a man, but that woman cannot then pass on the HIV to another man. So although a woman can contract AIDS from heterosexual sex, AIDS cannot be spread heterosexually.

A possible exception would be if the man already has open sores on his penis.
