Conservapedia:AFD Gay Bowel Syndrome

Not family/student friendly!

Gay Bowel Syndrome, which has also been referred to a gay bowel disease, was named as an illness in 1976 by a group of New York City physicians in a private proctologic practice and it describes a number of male homosexual anorectal disorders that male homosexuals are more apt to encounter. Glen Hastings and Richard Weber in 1993 wrote the following regarding gay bowel disease in the peer reviewed medical journal American Family Physician: "The 1980s brought a recognition of gay bowel disease and its similarities to inflammatory bowel disease." The abstract for the 1976 journal article published in Annals of Clinical and Laboratory Science entitled The gay bowel syndrome: clinico-pathologic correlation in 260 cases describes gay bowel syndrome in the following manner:

Keep The article Gay Bowel Syndrome cites a 2004 article by Medscape saying that gay bowel syndrome is still a concern. More importantly, given the lethality of HIV and its connection with proctitus/gay bowel syndrome the article could save lives.[1] I know Wikipedia would definitely censor this article because the liberal gay activists hate the term "gay bowel syndrome" and have been trying to get the medical establishment to not use the term because it strong associates homosexuality with disease. However, I do think that Conservapedia should warn its readers of the dangers of homosexual activity especially since the Bible states that homosexuality is wrong.Conservative 19:30, 3 October 2007 (EDT)

Delete. Everybody already knows that homosexuals are at higher risk for HIV/AIDS and other diseases; there is no reason to belabor the point by inserting pornographic content on a website viewed by many young people. DanH 19:31, 3 October 2007 (EDT)

I quoted medical journals. There is nothing pornographic about medical terminology. Also, I don't believe that homosexuals know they are at greater risk. The media certainly doesn't tell them this and mainly conservative websites and medical journals and medical websites do. Conservative 19:36, 3 October 2007 (EDT)
