prevent hiv and stop being a fucking hypocrite

this should help a chronic problem, but the article makes a good point. many women don't have a choice in sex, and can't refuse or negotiate condom use (or don't have access to condoms, or don't even know about them). i'd say women with access to and knowledge about using condoms are less likely to contract hiv, and so they should be taught how to use them, but the bush regime apparently thinks otherwise. it prefers to think all sex is consensual and it's a simple choice of having sex or not (even in a world where rape is used as a military tactic, is used to demoralise the enemy, to hit him where it really hurts). thus, we can abstain from sex until we're ready to have children, and i guess he thinks we should only have sex to have children. i guess that means he's not getting laid. if he's using birth control then he's a bigger hypocrite than i thought. well, no, not really. i think he's an evil fucking bastard. but really, if you don't help women protect themselves you don't count for much yourself.
