I know some of my students are glad that I am one of a kind, they wouldn't want another one like me, LOL.<br /><br />Becca, I am glad that you are learning a lot. It amazes me that a woman who has slept with a gay/bisexual man only has to wait a year before giving blood again, whether that sex was protected or not, but a man who has had sex with another man just once since 1977 is banned from giving blood. It's a sad state of affairs, and I wish it would change. It's hard to come up with an explanation sometimes as to why you can't donate blood when you don't want to state the real reason. I usually end up blaming it on my blood pressure medicine.<br /><br />Mack, I think that we often think of Rome as being this wild sexually free empire, when in reality they had strict sexual and moral laws, under both the Republic and the Empire (Augustus reiterated many of these laws and made them stricter). Also, we often forget that the Catholic Church was established using not only the outline in the Bible for church leadership but along the lines of the Roman Empire. When the Western Roman Empire fell in 476 AD, the only institution with the power to maintain any control was that of the Roman Catholic Church, and it continued many of the practices and prejudices of the old Roman Empire.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05299122685163501819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5356114186987252972.post-83943225596024516862011-07-15T12:10:50.571-04:002011-07-15T12:10:50.571-04:00Being a history buff, I'm a little ashamed tha...Being a history buff, I'm a little ashamed that I didn't know about Lex Scantinia. That probably explains a lot more about Western views on sexuality than does religion.Mackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02417879115453658262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5356114186987252972.post-26590000565470302382011-07-14T22:46:36.447-04:002011-07-14T22:46:36.447-04:00very interesting facts here and i never knew about...very interesting facts here and i never knew about the blod donating or sperm donating either. wow i'm really learning alot and i would hope with time all of this will change for the betterRebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10213055916162799647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5356114186987252972.post-74715782379866350772011-07-14T14:25:27.854-04:002011-07-14T14:25:27.854-04:00Quite interesting.

I hope this will be a very different kind of post in about a generation!<br /><br />It is interesting to note that the blood services, at least in this country, are quite willing to take blood from anyone - the supply of donors is just too small, and the testing is very, very good - yet the "medicrats" continue to deny us gay men the ability to donate blood. They seem to forget that heterosexuals carry HIV, too, and that the only way to avoid any possibility of tainted blood is to synthesize it.<br /><br />Why couldn't you have been my history teachers through the years? I might have paid a bit of attention!<br /><br />Peace <3<br />JayAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
