yes. A man can be gay all his life and never contract HIV/AIDS. Most gay men I know do not have HIV. However, a person should be tested once a year for HIV if they are sexually active regardless of sexual orientation or race/social economical status. Knowledge is power! Get tested.
No he can not.
They don't. AIDS and HIV are caused by a virus.
The majority of people with AIDS and HIV are straight.
No. If neither partner has the HIV virus, then neither one can get AIDS. AIDS is caused when HIV has gotten to far along. In order for you to get AIDS, you have to have blood to blood contact with someone that is HIV positive.
No. Worldwide, MANY more heterosexuals have HIV and AIDS than gay people.
As of 2013, AIDS and HIV continue to be a problem for both gay communities and straight communites alike.
No. This is a common stereotype that isn't true at all. The majority of people with AIDS are straight. The people with the most AIDs are unfortunately innocent poverty-stricken children in the continent of Africa.

No. You can't get AIDS from any gay person unless they carry the HIV virus and they transmit it to you. And generally speaking, a sneeze is going to be a low risk factor in transmitting the HIV virus.
There is a possibility for gay 14 year old children to contract HIV/AIDS, ONLY if he/she has been engaging in sexual activities with another person with HIV/AIDS. There is also an equal likelihood for a straight person to contract AIDS - it is not your sexuality that determines whether you are prone to diseases or not!
A gay person can get AIDS in exactly the same way that a straight person can get AIDS: by contracting the HIV virus, usually through sex with an infected person or by using infected needles.
AIDS is a diagnosis given to people with advanced HIV infection, not a contagious disease. White gay men are infected with HIV at alarming rates, many times that of the general population. Men who have sex with men are the highest risk population for HIV infection in the United States.
Generally if you are not monogamous and/or you have sex with someone who has the HIV virus, you can be infected. However, that can also happen to heterosexuals as well.
