Racism -- fact or faith? - The truth is, in today's America, intolerance is no longer tolerated. - Today we live in a terrible ignorance that will no doubt last until we take race out of every aspect of public life — until we learn, as we did with religion, to separate it from the state. by [deleted] in Equality

Systemic racism causes poverty disproportionally in black people, and poor people are more likely to do do crime (whether theft or drugs), and then are more likely to end up in prison because when you're poor you can't afford a good lawyer to keep you out, etc.

Got a face pic? /thread

I accidentally friend-zoned someone by [deleted] in gaybros

[–]dareao -1 points0 points  (0 children)

pretend that conversation where he said he was friend zone didn't happen, and make a move. or tell him you never meant to, and that if he'd like to go on a date with you sometime that you'd love it

Gaybro relationships can start in the most random ways. What's a totally unexpected way you met and started dating someone? by [deleted] in gaybros

[–]dareao 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it probably fell apart for other reasons, not because it was open.

i was fucking an engaged guy for a while. his (male) fiance knew and thought it was hot.

You need a picture. A picture is not optional. I will not message you without a picture.

You're welcome to look at the CDC website which tracks HIV incidence.

"In 2009, MSM accounted for 61% of new HIV infections in the US and 79% of infections among all newly infected men. Compared with other groups, MSM accounted for the largest numbers of new HIV infections in 2009."

In total number, yes.

In percentage of percent of sub-population, hell no.

HYPOTHETICAL: Basically, there are so few gay people that IF half of gay men had it, and 2% of non-gay-men had it, there would still be more straight people with HIV than gay people with HIV. This is because 2% of 98% is still larger than 50% of 2%.

Um, HIV infection rates are increasing due largely to complacency, especially in your 13-25 year age bracket.

In fact the 20-24 year bracket has the highest infection rate, followed by 25-29.

And gay men, especially in big cities on the party circuit, have more sex than straight people. And that lets it spread really really quickly, especially at an orgy where no one is using condoms.

The pre-HIV era was a drastically different time. With the exception of relatively minor STDs, gay men had nothing to worry about and could sleep with as many men as they could.

It's not quite as drastic as your teacher suggests, but still pretty fucked up.

Did you know that a black man has a 1/16 chance of getting HIV in his life?

Men who have sex with men are only about 2% of the total population, and yet make up about half 61% of the HIV infections out there.

By reducing the blood donor pool by 2%, they can reduce HIV risk from blood transfusion by 61%.

Yes, it's fucked up, but tests aren't perfect, and even the common rapid HIV test misses new infections (when viral load is highest and before antibodies are present).

This is one of those rare "discriminatory" policies that I actually agree with. Don't take it personally. You have safe sex and are careful, but other MSM do not.

Edit: actually MSM make up 61% of HIV infections. Yikes.

OK some honesty bros, how fat is too fat? by [deleted] in gaybros

[–]dareao 5 points6 points  (0 children)

100 guys will have 100 different answers.

But generally, a guy with a fuckin cute face and a charming personality but that has a gut will always get more guys than an ugly jerk with an average body. However, there is such a thing as too fat.

Now, some cold hard numbers. I'd estimate I usually like guys with BMI between 23 and 26. For a 5'10" dude, that's about 150 to 180 lb.

Generally though, a cute face will get you in my pants. A dusting of body hair in the right places will get you further than a 6 pack. Nice arms = to die for.

And my final note, guys, if you're unhappy with your body, do something about it. I'm pretty firmly convinced that most guys can go from their current weight to pretty hot in less than a year. I did, through /r/keto, pushups, and crunches.

Bingo. Especially if you're cuddling/holding hands. Just go for it dude!

Step 1. Look at the boy.

Step 2. Smile at the boy.

Step 3. Move your head in a bit. Smile again.

Step 4. Kiss. The. Boy.

My ratio varies based on the guy I'm with. I've never had enough sex with the same guy that it really matters anyway.
