why did she not insist on a condom and she gave birth not him so it came from her to the baby not from the man to the fetis, women need to use and insist on condoms, if not there the gilty ones as well as the penis the allowed into there womb!!!
Technically, the mother transmitted the virus to the child, not the father. Ignorance is bliss!
Criminalizing persons transmitting HIV is a slippery slope and will lead to increased discrimination of HIV positive individuals. Prevention, criminalization, sero-sorting, and home-testing all dismiss the reality that until there is a cure, the disease will ultimately affect us all. I suspect that as mainstream populations are affected, a cure will present itself relatively quickly.

I have some questions with this article, #1 what fault does the mother claim in her sons infection? #2 was their 1 or 2 consenting adults in the bed? #3 did any of these woman ask him if he had any thing he could pass on to them not just HIV? last I knew it took 2 to tango and not just 1 person is responcible for provideing protection from diseases. I myself use HIV sites to meet people so if a negative person is on there then they have a good idea your poz, either way I always have condoms!
