Cultural bias against gays and lesbians has been a long held belief for many. I knew men who died of AIDs, and have done volunteer and service work , on college campuses, offering sex education and condoms, information on safer, safest, behaviors. There were a few non-profit organizations that work to educate the community. I think there's a connection between the promiscuity that gay men tend to have, and the frequency of catching the disease.
