Significant revision
I think, for obvious reasons, this article needs to be significantly revised. There is very little verifiable information that this actually occurs, other than a bunch of stuff people put on the internet (which Wikipedia does not accept as a verifiable source, especially on something of of a public health issue). It also seems to confuse barebacking, a highly risky sexual activity, with a desire to get HIV/AID's. Like the supposed phenomena of women sabotaging their birth-control methods to intentionally mislead men, this article has blown up a handful of instances into something far more widespread than it actually is. I'm going to go through the article and judiciously edit it down to actual verifiable facts. SiberioS (talk) 19:19, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
- It is notable that in Maskowitz and Roloff, that the researchers indicate that there is a legitimate subculture on the internet, but to the extent that it actually practices what it claims is unknown. It makes the point of noting that bare backing subculture encourages, and generally requires, "Serosorting" ie: that negative men bareback with negative men and positive with positive. Of people who are self-conciously identified as "bugchasers" most are seemingly apathetic about it, simply expressing a preference to not know their partners sero-status, which is less an active search than a purely apathetic attitude towards whether one would get it.

I don't know what the article is intending to link to, but in the links at the bottom there is one for Fluid Bonding that links to a page on Polymer Science, which is fairly off-topic! I will remove it, but don't knw what the origional poster intended to link to, as it is a term mentioned in the article.Philman132 (talk) 17:08, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
Romans 6
As part of the debate on AIDS and condoms, I noticed that one epistle section commonly cited by opponents of contraception is Romans 6, especially verse 23, which contains the famous quote the wages of sin is death. [1] It seems like a very relevant quote, since this is precisely what radical groups like Act Up are talking about when they accuse the Church of sending homosexuals to their deaths.

- And your point is? Do you indeed have one? Vauxhall1964 (talk) 20:06, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
I Fail to see how this is relevant to the article? The talk page is for talk about improvements to the article, not to state opinions about the subject. If you think this should be added to the article, then please do so. Perhaps you could add a section about the use of condoms and the criticism it receives.

- It strikes me that that information would be better placed in the Condom article. Exploding Boy (talk) 06:56, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
