Gay men may use the term "MSM," which stands for "men who have sex with men," in public health and research contexts to describe a specific population without assuming sexual orientation. This terminology helps to address issues related to health disparities, HIV transmission, and other sexually transmitted infections among this group. It allows for more targeted outreach and prevention strategies while also recognizing the diverse identities within the LGBTQ+ community. Additionally, using MSM can help in collecting data that informs better healthcare policies and practices.

What gender is most affected by HIV and AIDS?
Define "gender". I will assume sexuality preference, as gender is a common term for this. But if you mean men/women, there is no statistics of women getting aids from homosexual contact. However 23,000 men did. Men get it more often then women from injection drug use because they use drugs more. And women get AIDS more from heterosexual contact then men. In gay groups, they get AIDS much more often then their heterosexual counterparts. No, its not a conservative myth. It is correct, as usual. "Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM) represent approximately 2% of the US population, yet are the population most severely affected by HIV. In 2009, MSM accounted for 61% of all new HIV infections, and MSM with a history of injection drug use (MSM-IDU) accounted for an additional 3% of new infections. That same year, young MSM accounted for 69% of new HIV infections among persons aged 13-29 and 44% of infections among all MSM. At the end of 2009, an estimated 441,669 (56%) persons living with an HIV diagnosis in the US were MSM or MSM-IDU."1 2% of the population accounts for 69% of the aids infections...
