I think I should learn more about the LGBT population that is infected with HIV/AIDS.
I assume that many people in this population contracted HIV/AIDS from having unprotected sex with an infected person.
I guess I don't really have a specific place or memory of where I learned this. I just know that is one of the ways to contract HIV and I just assume that's how many people contracted it.
I think the hardest challenge will be finding accurate information on the number of people in the LGBT community who are infected because that is a sensitive subject and I feel like there would be people out there who would not want to admit that they are infected or share how they became infected.
Hi Kristy,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your post about your Alternative Viewpoints topic.
Please keep in mind that, if we talk about LGBT, we are talking about at least four different populations of people--lesbians, gay men, bisexuals (who could be men or women), and transgender people (who also could be men or women, as well as straight, bisexual, gay, or lesbian).
You may find that, when people write about HIV/AIDS in this large group of people, they may choose to focus on one particular group. See what you find out...
Sincerely,
Professor Wexelbaum
