      2/ So gay men and straight men get HIV at the same rate? Odd; every statistic I've ever seen says that they get it at 10 or 20 times the rate. https://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/1135257934122934272 …

      5/ Gays sex is inherently much less safe than heterosexual sex. The vagina has evolved defenses to the transmission of blood born pathogens, the rectum has not. This is basic science. https://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/1135261539081039872 …

      6/ It seems that your argument is "category X is not different than category Y, because if we throw away 90% of the data points in X, the mean of X is the same as the mean of Y". You're aware that gays have more partners and more unsafe sex, right? https://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/1135261879775969281 …

      7/ Motorcycles are just as safe as cars. I mean, yes, sure, the statistics show that people die on them at 10 times the rate per passenger mile, but that has NOTHING to do with motorcycles; it's caused by unsafe driving.

          8/ I never said that they did. But statistics show that the vast majority of gays do have anal sex, as compared to a minority of hetero couples. They also have more anal per year, and with more partners. This is why their HIV rates are 75x higher. https://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/1135262453296717824 …

          9/ Concur. And homosexuality is not just correlated with but actively causally connected to more unsafe sex and more partners. Would you say that smoking cigarettes doesn't cause lung cancer because ACTUALLY it's unsafe inhalation that creates risk? https://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/1135263021125836802 …

          11/ I understand the distinction. But you're incorrect in saying that it's "smokers" and not "middle aged men". BOTH are true. Just bc you want to disaggregate gays into standard 3% who don't have anal and the 97% oddballs who do doesn't mean you can. https://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/1135263867913854977 …

          12/ But the error you're making is that you're trying to replace a set X (gay, American), which has |b| prevalence of trait B and |1-b| prevalence of C, with a new synthetic set X' that removes all of the B cases.

          13/ This is not a valid statistical technique! Do you use this in any other area of life? Do you say that it's not driving 120 mph that's unsafe, it's crashing? Do you say that drug use is perfectly safe, just not using in quantities that lead to overdoses?

          14/ Exactly! Even if you control for gay men who only have 1 sex partner (very very rare) , the act of gay sex itself is still much much risker than hetero sex. We're agreed!https://twitter.com/omniai/status/1135284159394402304 …

          If you control for unsafe driving and awareness of the driver, motorcycles are still more dangerous than cars. This is a bad analogy.

          15/ Incorrect. I'm perfectly willing to count lesbians as gay. I was merely illustrating my argument only using gay men. Lesbians have much higher rates of suicide, smoking, and risky behaviors than straight women. Even left-wing Slate says sohttps://twitter.com/omniai/status/1135284697653637120 …

          16/ ok, let us define some terms. I'm going to call the people you label "gay" "metaphysically gay". I'm now going to relabel the people you call "gays participating in anal sex" (i.e. 99% of the first group) as "gay". My thesis now is correct.https://twitter.com/hedbergrules/status/1135307375353749504 …

          Your motorcycle analogy is flawed. By definition, motorcycle riders must participate in the risky behavior of riding motorcycles. Whereas gay people don't need to engage in risky sexual behavior to be defined as gay.

You, on the other hand, are using ad hominems because you can't fight my actual point (because the facts strongly support my position). https://twitter.com/lomas_scot/status/1135351724028203009?s=19 …
