grub's Journal: Very disturbing article

A link to this article was posted as a reply to a post of mine yesterday. I've re-read it a couple of times and it just disturbs me the more I read it. There's a group of gay people who actively look for getting infected by HIV.

Bug Chasers: The men who long to be HIV+

This is just fucked up.

That's messed up

I assure you, this is not a common trait in the gay community. In fact, I would presume that such madness would be equally common in the strait community. The reasons for Rolling Stone publishing such garbage I leave as an excercise for the reader.

I asked a couple of gay folks I know about this and they've never heard of it before. I was chalking it up to a small group of kooks.
