That's why we need to also see the power of God, because people need to be healed. Whether they acquired HIV through high risk behavior willingly or unknowingly.<br /><br />The psychology or the rationalization of the man on the DL is something else. As much as I'd like to understand it, I don't want to understand it. Lord help these men come out of darkness.District Supt.

These are men, who by all outward appearances are heterosexual, but sleep with men.Bishop Eddie Long comes to mind. Unfortunately, in this case, being married and only having sex with her husband, doesn't decrease her chances of contracting HIV. My mother has a friend who contracted HIV from her now deceased ex husband. They met at church, he was the church organist. They got married. He was the only one she was having sex with. She didn't know he was bisexual and was sleeping with other men, which is how he caught HIV. She only found this out after she was diagnosed.<br /><br />Another problem is so-called "thug luv" among black women. Alot of black women, and this includes college educated and/or church going black women want thugs. They don't want a "square" (man who's never been arrested, dresses conservatively, speaks proper english, doesn't cuss them out or slap them around). Problem is, a lot of these thugs end up in prison, where homosexuality is a way of life. I know guys who have been to prison and guys who have worked in the prison system. Prison rape, as shown on tv, is not as common, but homosexuality is a daily occurence. What happens, is these thugs (who are the boyfriends and husbands of these black women) go to prison and get so desperate for sex, that they start sleeping with other men. Many men who were gay or bisexual before they ended up in prison take on a womans role. They take on female names, dress up and act as women. So a man may have a wife or girlfriend on the streets waiting for him to come home, but have a "woman" in prison. This is why HIV is so rampant in prisons.<br /><br />So the man is released from prison and goes home to his wife, girlfriend, and other women and has unprotected sex with them. Meanwhile, they know nothing of this man's sexual activities for the 5-10 years he was locked up for. He may even be continuing those activities even know that he's free. Ironically, if you ask these down low thugs their sexual orientation, they will say heterosexual and actually believe they are in their mind. They may sleep with (or have slept with) other men dozens of times, but because they see it as satisfying some sexual urge and will never fall in love with another man and because they aren't effeminate, they don't classify themselves as gay or bisexual.fmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13759116863929766807noreply@blogger.com
