Folks this is all based on assumption. Life is based on assumption. Medicine is based on assumption.
Someone should write FHM and ask this magazine where this gentleman got his research from-or has he persoanlly gathered current HIV test from ALLL transsexuals to make this statement which has no basis and is an irresponsible remark.
Like it or NOT, HIV AIDS is and will always remain a political and disease used to discriminate, insult, and scare people.
The sad fact is that most people get their source of HIV information from the news and do VERY little research to educate themselves on actual facts, current studies, and statistic.
Everyone is so terrified of AIDS yet everyone keeps on having sex.
Everyone is so terrified of AIDS yet very few people do little research on ACTUAL studies, fact findings, and on opposing views of doctors and scientist who DO NOT believe that HIV causes AIDS.
It's time that we stopped making some simplisctic assumptions, protect ourselves with knowledge, and realize that no medicine is ABSOLUTE.
For 20 years doctos prescribed estrogen to women to prevent breast cancer then it was realized that estrogens highly increase the risks of breast cancer. I state this because scine makes mistakes- science is based on theories and hypothesis- trial and error. NO MEDICINE IS ABSOLUTE.
In my business I have met many highly respected researchers and doctors who have given me their different opinions on HIV, which proves to me that there are really no definate answers.
WE are all at risk for STDS so use condoms!!!!!
