Ahh that makes sense, thanks for the info

It was not (at least not entirely). It was mostly general frustration at the demonisation of lgbt folks and contraception in the past, mostly due to Catholocism. If there wasn't as much of that, then I think HIV probably wouldn't be as much of a "thing" as it is nowadays.

Ohh fair, I hadn't considered that link. I guess that's one of the many factors that helped it spread. I'm glad things like PREP are an option nowadays
