I think people are now intentionally practicing gay act, not necessarily because they were born with it.

It's so because the laws and people are now openly supporting them.

It would reduce if the law is against it and the majority of people frown at it..

I mean lesbianism is to a certain degree understandable; but man to man is unfathomable.

Your last statement shows you actually endorse gay men to a degree.

After making a lot of sense, you ruined the whole thing with your last paragraph. Pray tell, how is lesbianism understandable to a certain degree? Call a spade a spade.

Lol. That's the Nigerian man bias for homosexuality. They approve it in women but disapprove it on men, because it toys with their idea of masculinity.

Sir, if you understand epidemiology, you'd appreciate that the UK did not just wake up from sleep to accuse the MSM community of being possible important vectors of the virus
Associating the virus with homosexual behaviour does not indict homosexuality what the UK government is trying to do is identify the factors responsible for a problem and seeking for ways to handle it. Hypertension is associated with age does that mean that geriaritics are bad

Nobody hates anyone. I do not support unnatural sexualities and this does not imply that I hate those that indulge in the act. All I'm asking is that they keep their businesses away from me.
First off,you have to define what unnatural sexualities is and while doing so be reminded that homosexuality has been observed in humans from time immemorial and is also observed in almost all animal species. You could also enlighten me on how homosexual people shove their business and down your thoat

The anus is not structured for sex. It is highly vascular. There is a very rich anastomosis in that region. This makes it easy for diseases to pass on to those that peruse the region.

Anal sex is therefore a significant threat to our health.

With further investigations and studies, we'd come to know how gays contribute to the transmission of this virus.
I agree that the anus is not structured for sex,I also agree that STI's are more easily transmissible through anal sex,but that doesn't justify homophobia after all if anal prolapse occurs it doesn't affect you,for prevention of transmission of STI's people should have safe sex, unprotected sex only when they are sure their partners are STI free and avoid cheating and that solves the problem for both heterosexual and homosexual people engaging in anal sex. I don't see how homophobia is justified with the reasons you gave

UK health chiefs are "actively investigating" gay and bisexual bars and spas as they try to contain the monkeypox outbreak.

Nine cases of the extremely rare disease have been confirmed in the UK so far, with six of those cases relating to men who have sex with men, according to the Daily Mail.

Officials say this is "highly suggestive of spread in sexual networks".

There is reportedly a similar pattern developing across Europe. In Spain, seven gay or bisexual men have tested positive, whereas Portugal has seen nine cases involving "mostly young" males.

There are also fears that monkeypox may be far more widespread than we are currently aware, given that most of the patients are not linked to each other.

Today (May 19), UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) warned men to look out for rashes developing on their face or genitals.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) issued an update on the outbreak last night discussing the situation in the UK, which was before two more British gay or bisexual men were confirmed to have contracted it today.

In their statement, they revealed that gay venues and the sexual contacts of the confirmed patients were being investigated.

The update read: "Health authorities in the UK have established an incident management team to coordinate the extensive contact tracing which is currently underway in health care settings and the community for those who have had contact with the confirmed cases.

"Contacts are being assessed based on their level of exposure and followed up through active or passive surveillance for 21 days from the date of last exposure to a case. Vaccination is being offered to higher risk contacts.

"A detailed backwards contact tracing investigation is also being carried out to determine the likely route of acquisition and establish whether there are any further chains of transmission within the UK for all cases.

"Sexual contacts and venues visited (for example saunas, bars and clubs) are actively being investigated for the four GBMSM [gay, bisexual and men who have sex with men] cases."

Contact tracers are reportedly interviewing the owners of gay venues as part of their investigations.

Monkeypox is a rare viral infection which can be caught from infected wild animals in parts of West and Central Africa.

It can spread between humans via both droplet respiration or an infected person's bodily fluids.

In humans it causes lesions to grow and fill with clear fluid, which then change into bumps with yellowish fluid that crust over and fall off.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), one in every 100 cases of monkeypox will result in death.

It seems you're a little bit tolerant of lesbian relationships. I am too and I suppose most men are. Now, this makes me wonder whether most women have that same attitude of a bit condoning man 2 man sexual affairs just the same way most men do, regards to women. By & large, It just seems to me that men & women are both far more uncomfortable with man v man than woman v woman, especially in our part of the world.

1. @Your first point: we are essentially saying the same thing. The UK seems to have found a pattern in the spread of the virus and the MSM community appears to be chief players in this transmission. Age is an unmodifiable risk factor of hypertension. With this information, we know it is important certain intervention protocols are activated in the elderly population as regards containing age-related incidence and prevalence of hypertension. See? So, if homosexuality is identified as a key factor in the spread of the virus, mechanisms should be put in place to contain it. In this instance, homosexuality is modifiable (unlike age in the HTN example you mentioned). If this infection is serious enough and life-threatening enough, the UK may put a law against the practice of homosexuality...thus,they would have MODIFIED this risk factor. See?

2. Sexual intercourse is nature's way of ensuring the continuity of life. Recall that one of the characteristics of living things is reproduction. This is nature's primary intent for sex. Any form of sex that does not amount to reproduction is unnatural.

3. I did not write anywhere that homosexuals shove their businesses in my throat, did I?

4. I'm glad you agree that anal sex is a major health risk. True, prolapse is not an infectious condition. So, it doesn't affect me directly. However, by engaging in high-risk sexual activities, public health is exposed to an avoidable risk. You cannot guarantee or ensure safe sex. As far as people practice anal sex, the health of populations not involved in the act is at risk. Homosexuals can pick up infections and transmit the same to others. Our universe is a closed system. Nothing escapes it. Things are recycled, one way or the other. So, no matter how you view it, anal sex and other forms of high-risk sexual lifestyles put us all at risk of coming down with STD's.

5. By the way, I wonder where you got your homophobia talk from. I can't recall mentioning that I'm homophobic.

.what of women that are comfortable with doing some certain things like perking and slapping/feeling of other female butts but are repulsed at the site of men trying such??... Which idea of theirs is such an act toying with?

Most times if a man sees two women engaging in some sensual activities together it natural triggers something/ a desire within. It has nothing to do with an idea of masculinity.
It comes naturally without trying to engage.


People like you that have no idea on what it takes/means to be a man who always try to tell men want should define their masculinity should shut the f*ck up.
Nobody wants your opinion on masculine matters. You are not worthy to have a say on the subject matte

well firstly homosexuality as in the attraction to the same sex is not modifiable,what we can change is sexual activity between the same sex and in this case anal sex among homosexual men,I take it that we both are in agreement on that. Secondly if it is established that anal sex is a major risk factor then the government can seek ways to contain this,I don't think it can be banned entirely because anal sex is not the root cause of the problem. Look at Smoking,it is associated with lots of diseases like COPD and lung Cancer but it is still legal. I think all the government can do is to issue a disclaimer that people who engage in anal sex are likely to acquire the disease and as such encourage safe anal sex( that is testing before such activity)

2. Sexual intercourse is nature's way of ensuring the continuity of life. Recall that one of the characteristics of living things is reproduction. This is nature's primary intent for sex. Any form of sex that does not amount to reproduction is unnatural.
I agree that the primary intent of sex is for procreation and I believe that the pleasure that we have for sex is to encourage the process,however what you just gave is not the definition of unnatural but even if I'm to accept it I can extend that definition to other practices. The female mammary gland is meant for feeding babies so men fumbling breast is unnatural,innit ?

3. I did not write anywhere that homosexuals shove their businesses in my throat, did I?
No,my bad let me use the your exact words,do they disturb you with their business and if they do how so?.

Conclusion,you have to understand and respect the choice of others especially if it doesn't directly affect you,we can advocate for people to get tested for STIs more often,limit number of sexual partners and other ways to limit the spread of STIs but if you suggest that outrightly banning MSM is the way to go then I think that comes from a position of bigotry
