This world is sooooooooooo screwed up. :o

[fairy69.livejournal.com]

Seriously?

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

That was the report I heard on the news the other night.
I don't know if they have even actually decided to let gay people donate or not yet. UGH.......

*shakes head*

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Stupidity reigns supreme. UGH......

[changeling72.livejournal.com]

Oh, they changed it to that here a while ago.

Does one have to make his blood donation at the church?

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Nope, Just generalized bigotry because you know Gays are the only people that get AIDs.
UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[matrixmann]

Actually meant that as a piercing joke because Christian religion only starts to recognize you as a human being if you are like that when you have stopped to practice it.

LOL...................

[cmcmck.livejournal.com]

That's a classic case of pretending to do something whilst actually doing nothing.

Are we straight folks required to be celibate for a year before donating? Don't think so..........

Sigh :o(

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Thank goodness you can't get AIDs. :p

[cmcmck.livejournal.com]

I can!

Anyone can!

That was my point really.

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

I know anybody can get it, but their mentality that only gay people can is so frustrating. :o

[cmcmck.livejournal.com]

Fwiw, I stopped donating when the blood authorities here decided to make life impossible because I'm trans.

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

ARGH........

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

is that a problem for you? :pp


sorry Jon, couldn't resist it. You know me well enough (i hope) to see that I'm teasing you right?



great news from one side but at the other hand, ARE THEY NUTS??

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Let's me think...
UGH, how long has it been? :o

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

poor thing you.. if it has been as long for you as it has been for me, we're talking about yeaaaaaaaaaaaaars

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Sadly, that sounds about right. :((

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

let's sigh together than.



**SIGH**

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Le Sigh...

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

YAY for Charlie. :)

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!

[owlstorm_9]

Idiots...

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Yep, they are still in charge. :o

[inner-storm.livejournal.com]

Uhmmm... yeah... :/

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Government=Stupidity UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[inner-storm.livejournal.com]

:/

[ashmedai.livejournal.com]

A ban is still in effect here in Germany. Fuck them though, if my blood isn't good enough for them, I'm not insisting they take it.

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

I always have to chuckle every time I hear the Red Cross or the Clinic I work for call for blood donors. UGH..........

[ashmedai.livejournal.com]

I know what you mean. I mean, theoretically you could always lie, I mean what are they going to do, install a camera in your bedroom? But I won't, it's the principle of the thing for me.

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Exactly. :o

[jcaton7111.livejournal.com]

I agree..you could lie. I dont see the big deal. A straight person has the same chance as a gay person having all the stds and such. To me in these days gay people are more careful than straight people. Back in the early 80s it would be different. 

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Too bad common sense doesn't exist in government. :o
