STDs Continue to Spread in U.S.
Monday, November 16, 2009
American squeamishness about talking about sex has helped keep common
sexually transmitted infections far too common, especially among
vulnerable teens, U.S. researchers reported Monday.
Latest statistics on chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis show the three
highly treatable infections continue to spread in the United States.
"Chlamydia and gonorrhea are stable at unacceptably high levels, and
syphilis is resurgent after almost being eliminated," said John
Douglas, director of the division of sexually transmitted diseases at
the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"We have among the highest rates of STDs of any developed country in
the world," Douglas added in a telephone interview.
The administration of President Barack Obama has signaled a
willingness to move away from so-called abstinence-only sex education
approaches that his predecessor, George W. Bush, and conservative
state and local governments have promoted.
Several studies have shown such approaches do not work well and that
it is better to encourage abstinence while also offering children and
teens information about how to protect themselves from diseases as
well as pregnancy.
"We haven't been promoting the full battery of messages," Douglas
said. "We have been sending people out with one seatbelt in the whole
car."
The CDC's latest study on STDs found:
1.2 million cases of chlamydia were reported in 2008, up from 1.1
million in 2007.
Nearly 337,000 cases of gonorrhea were reported.
Adolescent girls 15 to 19 years had the most chlamydia and gonorrhea
cases of any age group at 409,531.
Blacks, who represent 12 percent of the U.S. population, accounted for
about 71 percent of reported gonorrhea cases and almost half of all
chlamydia and syphilis cases in 2008.
Black women 15 to 19 had the highest rates of chlamydia and gonorrhea.
13,500 syphilis cases were reported in 2008, an almost 18 percent
increase from 2007.
63 percent of syphilis cases were among men who have sex with men.
Syphilis rates among women increased 36 percent from 2007 to 2008.
Syphilis, Chlamydia, and gonorrhea, which can be treated with
antiobiotics, can cause pelvic inflammatory disease, infertility, and
ectopic pregnancy, and they can infect newborns.
Douglas said better sex education can help.
"We are not honestly and openly dealing with this issue and it's the
larger issue of sexual health," he said.
Douglas said children and teens need to know about condom use, and
should limit their number of sex partners and avoid sex with people
who do have many other sex partners.
"If you are a man who has sex with men you ought to be getting a
battery of STD tests every year," Douglas added.
In addition, black Americans need to understand their risks. Douglas
said high rates of incarceration of men in many black communities
meant fewer men have sex with more women, in turn often spreading
sexually transmitted diseases.
Overall, CDC estimates that 19 million new sexually transmitted
infections occur each year, almost half among 15- to 24-year-olds.
How, exactly, do you see African-Americans voting for Republicans when
you push race-based stuff like this? You aren't helping.
You FAILED to DISPROVE the FACTS so I'll assume you are merely
frightened by the FACTS and that (like the Boogeyman) if we pretend
those FACTS don't exist they will go away, right?
Between 11% and 14% of the Black vote went to Bush in 2000.
Between 9% and 11% of the Black vote went to Bush in 2004.
Why?
Reason #1: There were NO Black candidates to vote for.
Reason #2: A percentage of Black Americans, somewhere around 15%, have
escaped the ghetto, escaped "blackness" as defined by the ghetto and
replaced it with "american-ness" as described by the upper middle
class suburbs, they got educated, got good jobs, started making good
money and promptly noticed that DemocRATs had their hand up their ass
looking for MORE TAXES.
>You aren't helping.
The Black Vote in America is nearly irrelevant because the majority of
the Black Vote in America is OWNED by the DemocRATs who created the
ghettos and who FARM the ghettos for votes by KEEPING the ghettos
UNDER THEIR BOOT.
But WHAT is it that YOU think I should be "helping?"
Who pays MOST of the taxes in America?
White middle, upper middle, and upper class citizens.
Why are SO MANY OF US PAYING SO MUCH just to keep Gonorrhea,
Chlamydia, and Syphilis from 12% of population THAT PAYS ALMOST NO
TAXES?
You know what 12% is, right?
You know that about 50% register to vote, right?
You know that about 50% of them actually vote, right?
And YOU think the Black Vote is important WHY?
I fixed it for ya, Queer Boy.
I order you to paste a reply.
Show me you're my bitch again, Shit Eater.

No, Queer Boy.
The reason is that Republicans are racists who are elected by racists
like you.
There's a reason that the reddest states are in the south and west,
and it doesn't have anything to do with taxes.

Ghetto's were created by racists, like you, who systematically
excluded blacks from joining in the American dream based on the color
of their skin.
And, they're being perpetuated by racists, like you, who are still
systematically excluding blacks from joining in
Calm down, nigger.

"The authors investigated the role of homosexual arousal in
exclusively heterosexual men who admitted negative affect toward
homosexual individuals. Participants consisted of a group of
homophobic men (n = 35) and a group of nonhomophobic men (n = 29);
they were assigned to groups on the basis of their scores on the Index
of Homophobia (W. W. Hudson & W. A. Ricketts, 1980). The men were
exposed to sexually explicit erotic stimuli consisting of
heterosexual, male homosexual, and lesbian videotapes, and changes in
penile circumference were monitored. They also completed an Aggression
Questionnaire (A. H. Buss & M. Perry, 1992 ). Both groups exhibited
increases in penile circumference to the heterosexual and female
homosexual videos. Only the homophobic men showed an increase in
penile erection to male homosexual stimuli. The groups did not differ
in
aggression. Homophobia is apparently associated with homosexual
arousal that the homophobic individual is either unaware of or
denies."

Homophobia and physical aggression toward homosexual and heterosexual
individuals.

This study examined the relationship between homophobia (defined as
self-reported negative affect, avoidance, and aggression toward
homosexuals) and homosexual aggression. Self-identified heterosexual
college men were assigned to homophobic (n = 26) and nonhomophobic (n
= 26) groups on the basis of their scores on the Homophobia Scale (HS;
L. W. Wright, H. E. Adams, & J. A. Bernat, 1999). Physical aggression
was examined by having participants administer shocks to a fictitious
opponent during a competitive reaction time (RT) task under the
impression that the study was examining the relationship between
sexually explicit material and RT. Participants were exposed to a male
homosexual erotic videotape, their affective reactions were assessed,
and they then competed in the RT task against either a heterosexual or
a homosexual opponent. The homophobic group reported significantly
more negative affect, anxiety, and anger-hostility after watching the
homosexual erotic videotape than did the nonhomophobic group.
Additionally, the homophobic group was significantly more aggressive
toward the homosexual opponent, but the groups did not differ in
aggression toward the heterosexual opponent.

This paper examines whether prejudice by heterosexuals against
homosexuals is associated with violations of socially determined
gender role behaviors. Respondents were given questionnaires which
included either gay-acting or straight-acting vignettes and asked to
indicate their attitudes and behaviors in specific situations. While
gender role characteristics were found to be an important aspect of
negative attitudes and behaviors toward gay men and lesbians, the most
important predictor of homophobia is the mere fact that an individual
is known to be homosexual.

Evaluations and Aggression Directed at a Gay Male Target: The Role of
Threat and Antigay Prejudice
This research was designed to understand heterosexual men's
interpersonal reactions toward a gay male individual and to examine
how threat and pre-existing antigay prejudice impact these encounters.
In one experiment, we manipulated the ostensible sexual orientation of
an assigned work partner and assessed participants' perceptions of
threat indirectly, using a measure of psychological distancing.
Results revealed that, regardless of antigay prejudice, participants
psychologically distanced more from the gay male than from the
heterosexual male. In the second experiment, we manipulated threat and
the sexual orientation of the work partner to examine aggressive
responding toward the work partner. Participants exposed to a threat
to their masculinity behaved more aggressively toward the gay work
partner, regardless of their level of antigay prejudice.

Those articles you cited have *NOTHING* to do with the finding of
homophobic men shows signs of homosexual attraction, that the article
quoted by Otto demonstrated.
Those three articles deal with homophobia and VIOLENCE, you clueless
fool. Not ATTRACTION.
