gay and disease

                   
         According to world's leading AIDS researchers , HIV continues to spread among gay group.And the rate that HIV spread is becoming serious.Scientists convince gay group are special because of lifestyle and biological factors so that gay people have higher risk get HIV than normal people.
       These years in America, infection rates among gay people have been increasing by 8% each year since 2001, more and more people died because of this disease.Normally, HIV experts believe high risk behaviors such as unprotected sex,having multiple partners,injection drug use can make people catch HIV and this is for everyone.But there is an 18 times greater risk of HIV transmission through anal sex than through vaginal sex,that is the reason why gay people have higher rate to get HIV.Because the problem is becoming worse, some experts are trying to save gay people from HIV infection. A strategy called pre-exposure prophylaxis is a effective way to avoid HIV.Experts are also trying to write some articles and make videos to let more gay people know the importance of preventing HIV and tell them the method of how to sex with healthy ways.
      In brief, HIV is a deadly disease, gay people should protect themselves and avoid spreading it to other people.

Homosexual's lives in Japan

                      Homosexual lives in Japan
     Japan Xin Hua Net published a article about homosexual people's living situation in Japan. The main meaning as follows:
       Because it's different from the mainstream of traditional life, homosexual is still a embarrassed topic that can not be talked in formal occasion.Japan is one those countries that have these issues.In japan , homosexual people are not allowed to donate blood, the law also doesn't give those people proper rights. But with the society develops fast and become more open, homosexual are gradually grab more and more attention.
       According  a survey in Japan Daily Net, there is a video in this website, the video shows a Japanese man describes his personal life in Japan, especially some bad things happened to him such as he was beaten by some people who he even didn't know. The person who created this video is an American. He teaches English in Japan. He founds Japan has big problem about homosexual as other countries,but Japanese media and government did not do any effective method to solve it. All these things make homosexual people feel more lonely and pressure, and force them to consider themselves are wired.
       First of all,comparing with some western countries, Japan is a country that pays more attention to the whole society group.They don't like people become too novelty or wired.Because almost whole society even not sure how to deal with homosexual people, so how could independent people to deal with them .So most of homosexual people just keep their sexual orientation as a secret in their heart. Moreover, some people don't understand the concept of homosexual, so they misunderstand it. They simply think gay people as real girls and try to treat them as women. So these wrong understandings make them harder to accept it.
       In brief, not all of Japanese dislike or can not accept homosexual people, it is just homosexual people haven't gotten their rights already. So we wish government and public media will pay more attention to it.
