You ignorant, cocky motherfucker...
congradulations on being a retard. the chance of aids from blood transfusion with an infected person is 9000/10000. Bsically 90% chance
We weren't talking about INFECTED SOURCES you stupid fuck. People with HIV are not allowed to donate blood for obvious reasons. Do some research. The rate of HIV transmission from blood transfusion in America is insanely minimal, especially in comparison to transfusion from sex.
bullshit. I've asked 20 people last 3 days what they thought about aids
every one of them thought the chances of getting aids from having sex with an infected source was like 1/4, 1/3, 1/5, etc...
Dude, having sex with somebody that HAS HIV does have a very high risk. If you don't think that this much is true, then you are far more stupid than I'd ever imagined, in all honesty. Additionally, we were never talking a bout demonstrably provable cases of infections, we were talkinga bout generaly promiscuous sex. Having unprotected sex with an HIV infected individual, especially through anal penetration, is substantial to say the least.
I'm 99% sure that's what the majority of the board thought before reading this thread as well. there's a huge difference between 1 in 5 to 1 in 5,000.
Try talking about one scenario you stupid fuck. Random encounters and encounters explicitly with "an infected case" are going to have wildly different risk percentages.
god, you and everybody else is so full of shit.
how many of the idiots here smoke and drink like it's nothing or eat shit food on a daily basis that will clog their arteries and give them a heart attack 20 years from now.
I've got news for you, the following are 20 million times more dangerous than an "unnecessary risk" like unprotected sex
- eating shit food (check for 99% of the board)
- drinking alchohol like fucking alchoholics (check for 99% of the board)
- driving (I guess this would be considered a "necessary" risk but whatever)
- doing drugs (check for 99% of the board)
oh wait, I guess flooding your system with shitloads of dangerous toxins to get drunk or stoned is a totally necessary risk.
Keep in mind who you're speaking to, since it's well documented that I don't drink, smoke, or do drugs. Also, we don't have 100 members, to your statistics right off the bat are dramatically flawed.
A more accurate basis of comparison would be having unprotected sex with someone that is HIV positive and eating raw meat. In those two scenarios, the risks are abundantly obvious. Eating a cheeseburger and having a random sexual encounter are not very easily comparable scenarios, since, for example, health problems come largely from a lieftime of unhealthy eating, whereas you only need to have sex once to contract an STD.
There are many other blatantly erroneous and/or completely stupid elements in your little "argument" here, but I'll leave it at that.
edit: there is a thread basically right below us with a douchebag getting drunk. I guess that's not an unneccessary risk but something that has 1 in a million chance of happening is totally an unnecessary risk?
I'm pretty sure the risk of having a heart attack from eating a single steak or cheeseburger are infinitely smaller than contracting an STD from a single random sexual encounter. Just like your health, your risk of having something go wrong (having a heart attack, contracting an STD) increase the more than you engage in a given activity.
