Don't All Gay Men Have HIV?

Question: Don't All Gay Men Have HIV?
Answer: It's a common myth that all gay and bisexual men either already have or will eventually get HIV. However, HIV is transmitted through behavior, not as a result of sexual orientation. Practicing safer sex for all individuals, regardless of sexual orientation, reduces the risk of contracting HIV.
