Syphilis is an infection caused by the bacteria treponema pallidum

In respect to homosexuality and syphilis, an early publication to propose the link between homosexuality contributing to the spread of the sexually transmitted disease syphilis was the English publication Proceedings of the Royal Society of Medicine in 1962.[1] The Proceedings of the Royal Society of Medicine made the following statement: "The importance of homosexual practices in the spread of venereal diseases has attracted particular attention recently. It almost seems that these practices are keeping syphilis alive in this country." [2]

In respect to homosexuality and syphilis, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) stated that their data suggests that approximately 64 percent of all adult P&S syphilis cases in 2004 were among men who have sex with men.[3]

The medical literature has many articles associating homosexuality with syphilis or reporting syphilus is increasing among homosexual men in various countries (syphilis is increasing in many developed countries among the homosexual men population). [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]

Syphilus is one of the maladies associated with gay bowel syndrome.
