>It's still a death sentence in Africa (as is being gay).
Just to be somewhat anal, AIDS is much more common in Southern Africa, where homosexuality is generally either legal or the laws against it weak and unenforced.
It's also much more correlated with race than sexuality. In South Africa, it affects something like 15% of blacks vs 0.3% of whites. Women are also far more likely to have HIV, especially younger ones. I think it's around 30% for pregnant women.
Outside of the West, AIDS is definitely not something that mainly gay men get.
