Internalized homophobia expresses itself in recklessness, frequently sexual recklessness as in bareback sex in the middle of an epidemic. We have to address the problem at the source.

Many posters here deny a link between the increasingly homophobic political sphere and the increase in unsafe sex practices on the part of people who should know what they are doing.

The right wing has two ways of winning. The more obvious way is to shut you down. The less obvious way is get you to accept their values without being aware that's what you are doing.

Sexual recklessness is the right wing's victory over gays. Politics is a lot deeper than people realize.
