That article is signed by 'Admin', and has no references whatsoever. It doesn't even detail which were the alleged collaborations. It's difficult to take it seriously, the same article states that Ernesto Guevara made a concentration camp for homosexual, which is not far from reality, but an anachronism and also it just uses that to blame on Simone to say shi sat next to him once. (PS. Said concentration camp was the Cuban solution implemented by Castro, without forced labour iirc, and it was the best solution they came up during the raise of HIV, meanwhile the rest of the world didn't do much better. Heck even today we reject their blood donation, I mean from homosexuals which is plain wrong.. anyway.. just wanted to challenge the credibility of your link. But I don't mean to say that socialist don't commit crimes and mistakes.. I 'd be happy to see sources on the accusations of the article, just that. Ah. Did I open a parenthesis somewhere? Ok)
- thebooktocome 3y agoI dunno who “we” is but just in case others missed the news, men who have sex with men in the United States no longer need to abstain from sex at all in order to donate blood, provided they’re in a monogamous relationship and meet other risk assessments. This has been true since roughly May 2023 as far as I’m aware.
- adr1an 3y agoGlad to hear there's some very recent and small advancement! PS. By 'we' I meant our current society, as opposed to 'them', meaning Cuban regime 80 years ago.
- maleldil 3y agoDo heterossexual men need to be monogamous too?

- thebooktocome 3y agoThe reason public health refers to “men who have sex with men” or MSM is because it was discovered very early on in the HIV/AIDS crisis that the phrase “gay men” missed a significant portion of those at risk. Some straight men really do have sex with other men, sometimes.
- maleldil 3y agoThanks for pointing that out, but this doesn't answer the spirit of my question: do men that do not have sex with men need to be monogamous to donate blood, or is that a requirement specific to MSM?

The (now deleted) link is a website that translates Spanish articles into English. This is the article that was translated.
