Emeraldphoenix,
You know we're still swinging with the wing. I find the area to be particularly sparse with the womens. I'd rather be any where esle they could send me, if my sister didn't live in VA.
Chief Fox,
Did gayness become contagous now too :eek:
I'm no fan of the ****'s but theres gay and then theres GAY, and the move GAY you are the less likely you'd be doing martail arts anyway.
I don't think i'd refuse to train with someone for being gay unless it was BJJ :D Then i'd be all for it :eek: wait...what...no...i mean...(just joking in case you didn't get it)
BJJ is sooo gay :D
Nah, Just trying to liven the place up a bit.Quote:

I used to play poker with a leper, but he kept throwing his hand in.
so, i decided to try hockey, again with a leper and again, there was always a face off in the corner.
yuk yuk
my apologies to all the lepers out there.
by the by, special olympics and the gay olympics allow aids victims to participate, but again, not in full contact sports where bleeding is a possibility/probability.
all sanctioned boxers must signed a waiver declaring they are free of transmissable disease and that means any disease such as hep as well.
GAY OLYMPICS! So the sports would be, figure skating and..........Quote:

It is highly debilitating in scope and eats away at a person in most cases.
someone who has HIV in very early stages may be different, but Aids is another matter entirely.
To the point where it would likely be self evident that participation in high caliber competitive sports would not be a probability for someone suffering with the disease.

So the way I have always figured it is if you have hiv you have a chance, but when you have aids, you're screwed, right??? I just don't know the stages and how it affects you, how healthy you are in the first place, how the virus reacts to your body, etc. There is a lot that factors in here that would be very hard to analyze.
Leprosy is one of the -least- communicable diseases, as only a tiny percentage of the population is vulnerable to infections (95% of the human race is naturally invulnerable). Actual infections are easily countered with MDT.
question is would you work out in a gym with someone who has aids?
As far as the HIV or AIDS issue, I would let them train but no contact sparring or rolling as there would be too much risk. Someone mentioned how does pro boxing deal with this issue, anyone remember Tommy Morrison,(played Tommy Gunn in the atrocious Rocky 5), he was diagnosed with HIV in the early 90's and was not allowed to box anymore, to my knowledge, if anyone has further information please elaborate.
:eek:
...and some of those dirty buggers almost certainly had HIV.
If they bleed, don't swallow it!
Little cuts on someone with HIV are not going to transmit it unless they are rubbed into your little cuts, you ingest it etc... I think people are far too sensitive aboutt his, and the boxing ban is just for show.
On a side note, things like hep are far more contagious.
