Should the U.S. FDA lift the ban on blood donations by men who have sex with men?

    It should be that you donate your blood. If it is to save someone with aids, a drunkard, drug user you should be able to opt out of helping them and wasting your goodly resources. Male-male sex generally involves paying tonsil hockey with recycled corn and other extremely nasty habits. If you can't fertilize food crops with feces why would you want someone that has it in there mouth giving blood.
    I don't even like the tattooed folks taking my blood. In fact I refuse to let them draw my blood or work near any wounds or body cavities. I'm old enough to remember when there was only one way to get aids. Oops then dentists, cops, doctors, firemen, their children, and various other folks became infected. That's why rubber gloves are on all persons that make physical contact in their professions. In the old days people died on the battle field because bacteria in the blood stream and contaminants introduced. It was infections. And once the skin is pierce anything can happen. As far as I'm concerned you can keep the gay women away too! Nasty

    Do they ban women who sleep with women from donating? I suppose they've never heard of a straight person having HIV/AIDS either, right?
