I have a curiosity that probably has an answer so obvious that I'm overlooking it.
Here it is: The U.S. population is larger female than male. On the basis of that I'm assuming there are more gay females than gay males.
What is/are the high-risk practices that spawn diseases that devastatingly impact the gay male population but seemingly spare the gay female population?
Could it be under-reporting of cases within the gay female population, a natural biological immunity, less promiscuity within the gay female population?
It just galls me that every contagious malady that comes down the pike seems to be assigned to gay men.
I'm not sure if it's applicable, but his location being Vancouver Island, British Columbia, I gave the Urban Dictionary a shot and found the definition that "skin" is British slang for rolling papers, as in rolling a joint.
Over time, I have come to understand that, when inspired to bake pies, I should always go with prepared piecrusts.
My own piecrusts have a pleasing taste, but when they are lifted from the oven, the tops of the pies resemble Stonehenge.
