text: anyone know the relationship among homosexuals and aids? specifically, the difference between heterosexuals with aids and homosexuals with aids. or rather, any information you have on this topic would be beneficial. thank you the only difference i know is that someone who is gay and has hiv or full blown aids is more proactive instead of reactive with their disease. they're more likely to get out there yelling and marching trying to get funding for research. a staight person generally shuts himself away and waits to die.
