Not sure. But yeah I heard it came from Africa. Certainly the White Supremecists say blacks started it and that's why eventually it became a bigger problem with them than with gays.
Though again, this is merely what I've heard. I actually don't know anyone with AIDS.

I've always wanted to donate blood. But I heard they have weird rules about gay people. I don't know where you heard that, but it's pure bullshit. I donate blood at least once a month and I've never been asked whether I'm straight or gay. They run a sample on every single person's donation to test for not just AIDS, but all kinds of diseases. If you really want to donate you shouldn't have any problem at all.

Oh, now you are being serious? Is this a game or is it for real? One never knows with you.

There is a theory I heard about a gay Canadian pilot.There might have been a show where it was a theory and they traced it back to him.Something like that

There was an HBO tv-movie that showed there being a pilot, And the Band Played On.

Oh, now you are being serious? Is this a game or is it for real? One never knows with you. I'm being completely serious. If you really wanna donate go ahead. Whoever told you they have "special" rules for gay people is full of shit. Like I said, I do it every month and not once has anybody asked me my sexual orientation. The only question pertaining to sex they'll ask you is when was the last time that you were sexually active. The question of orientation will never come up. It doesn't matter to them 'cuz they test all donations for everything imaginable anyways, not just AIDS.

On the questionnaires here, they ask private information such as that and last sexual encounter. I can't give blood because of the tattoo regulations but I would like to.

It probably does differ from place to place. I'm sure that's a possibility. All I can speak of is where I donate I guess, and they've never asked for my sexual orientation.

Two movies that brought a tear to my eye were A Perfect World and The Elephant Man.
Two others that nearly did were Watership Down and Grave Of The Fireflies.
