Similar statistics in Europe. Tell that to people in Africa. And you think there aren't swingers that swing both ways? First of all, I was obviously talking about OUR culture, Western culture... I am fully aware that the situation in Africa is a different one. (Coincidentally, I've been to Africa less then a year ago.) I am not aware of any high society "swinging" culture in Africa (which does not mean it doesn't exist). Secondly, of course, there are swingers swinging both ways, and there are swingers swinging both ways that do it unprotected. There will also be drug using, bisexual "no condom only" swingers. But they will be in the minority though; statistics indicate that drug use and unprotected male homosexual sex tend to be high risk factors, not swinging. (Female homosexual sex is a rather low risk factor, by the way.) Heterosexual swinging couples tend to have protected sex outside their marriage and are not a high risk group. That is simply a fact, not an opinion. Higher risk than celibate or monogamous, yes, but still a "not all that much to worry about" risk. I'm just saying as it is.

First of all, I was obviously talking about OUR culture, Western culture... I am fully aware that the situation in Africa is a different one. (Coincidentally, I've been to Africa less then a year ago.) I am not aware of any high society "swinging" culture in Africa (which does not mean it doesn't exist). I thought the problem in Africa were the Christians going over their and convincing them not to practice safe sex? Obviously, to further elaborate this issue, this will sooner or later sway into both political and religious territory. Now, I really enjoy both political and religious/philosphical discussions. There was even a time when such discussions were done regularly even on this board. However, I see why the curators of this message board do not want such discussions any more. As the guidelines state: "There are countless places online to discuss religion and politics but only a few to discuss film music." Political and religious discussions tend to be minefields in these waters that lead to ugly mud-slinging and ill-feelings, so I do not wish to push this thread too far into that territory. Suffice to say: the problems in Africa (which, of course, is a huge continent, with many different countries who face many different problems) are not "Christians going over and convincing people to not practice safe sex". That's a cheap shot, and it is also wrong. Africa faces many problems, but that's not one of them. (Just as a side note: the one Christian denomination that is against condom use, the Catholic Church, is also against sex outside of marriage and divorce. So if you were to follow their rules, then you'd not be in a high risk group for HIV infection.)

I think I saw a nipple. Only a guy who has The Starfleet Porpoise Academy logo as his avatar would take this thread into a discussion of something as un-elevating as nipples.
