why are they blaming the HIV positive individual alone,having sex was a mutual aggrement made by the both of them.also HIV as I know is a stigma on it's own,because she is leaving with this virus doesn't mean she wnt have sex,y dnt they tke d dude 2 court and chrge him 4 risking his own life,having sex without a condom,I think every young man knows they ougth to where condoms b4 making love.it is stuff like this that makes people get scared of going for the test,bc dy cnt stnd ths rules.
Wow this is a problem for many of us. The social stigma that goes along with this disease is devastating. It wrecks self esteem and causes many of us to live in isolation. I quit dating a number of years ago because quite frankly, I could not handle the rejection. Am I lonely? Sometimes, but loneliness is better than feeling like I am a sub human after watching yet one more potential partner run the other way when told of my status. Honestly, its no wonder people choose not to get tested.
Both people involved in a sexual act are equally responsible for any consequences. This reminds me of the story in the Bible where they want to stone the woman caught in adultery. Where was the man? If they both were consenting adults engaging in the act before it started, they were both old enough to realize what they were getting into.
This is truly revolting. why are consensual sex partners excused from being held accountable for their acts? EVERYBODY over the age of consent knows how HIV is spread and ANYBODY who has unprotected sex is responsible for their own consequences.
What makes this special? the fact that she is a pop star?40% of Gays and Bisexuals have sex without disclosure of HIV status. In my opinion pop stars fare the worst in terms of healthy behaviors.
How is this case against her anti-gay if her partners were male? Granted everyone should protect themselves but it is extremely unfair to intentionally expose someone to an STI under any circumstances.
No matter what anyone says, these laws are basically anti-gay in nature, wrapped in a nice false shell of purported protection. Shame on her, but also shame on her partners for not being proactive. It was their responsibility also.

She didn't disclose. Thats fucked up. End of story. I think some of you need to stop acting like "ohh It's his fault too" She knew that he would likely be infected.It's time for some personal responsibility
