On might argue that the HIV statistic reveals more about the "true nature" of HIV than it does about homosexuality...PaulH 18:13, 29 November 2007 (EST)
That first talking point...could it have been that homosexuals in the fifties feared for their saftey (you could go to prison for homosexual acts back then) and weren't as 'out' as they are today, now that those laws have been repealed? Maestro 19:43, 29 November 2007 (EST)
If someone wants to make the point that homosexuality is more or less common in certain societies, I'd like to see a study that's less than half a century old - and that finds a way to get people to admit to homosexuality when legal and cultural mechanisms make that difficult, dangerous or impossible.PaulH 20:39, 29 November 2007 (EST)

Dutch Study
I'm concerned about the inclusion of the "Dutch Study" in this list. The study was designed to look at the sexual habits of HIV+ people in Amsterdam and studied both heterosexual and homosexual people. It defined a "relationship" as anything from a single date to a lifelong, monogamous relationship. The study found identical results between the heterosexual and homosexual participants. You can go read the study if you don't believe me.Ayzmo 12:53, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
