The Homosexual Epidemic of Shigellosis from Feces Ingestion

Multiple health agencies like the CDC and the UK's Joint Public Health are warning male homosexuals that shigella infections are on the rise from eating feces infected with this deadly bacteria that is at epidemic proportions amongst male homosexuals from feces eating. A direct quote from the CDC website: "Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM)† are more likely to acquire shigellosis than the general adult population 20. Shigella passes from stools [poop] or soiled fingers of one person to the mouth of another person, which can happen during sexual activity. Many shigellosis outbreaks among MSM have been reported in the United States, Canada, Tokyo, and Europe since 1999 8, 15, 16, 18, 21, 22. For more information, see Shigella Infections among Gay & Bisexual Men."

Health agencies are reaching out to male homosexuals, warning them to stop ingesting feces, and to wash their hands, fists, faces, genitals, feet, mouths and objects after their sex acts.

The potential severity of the symptoms is apparent in the experiences of one homosexual man who acquired the infection via the common male homosexual sex act of eating feces directly from the human anus. “Getting Shigella was the lowest point of my life,” he said. “I suffered uncontrollable bloody diarrhoea with severe stomach cramps. The severity of the symptoms and dehydration headaches made me think I was going to die.”

Homosexual men experiencing Shigella symptoms are urged to go to their GP or a clinic, mentioning Shigella and requesting a stool sample test taken.

Interviews with homosexual sex practitioners with the homosexual infection have identified the usual male homosexual risk factors:

High numbers of multiple anonymous homosexual partners met online or at homosexual sex parties. Use of drugs during homosexual sex, including mephedrone, methamphetamine, ketamine and GBL. Injecting drug use. Most of the homosexual sex practitioner men with Shigella were also diagnosed with another sexually transmitted infection or HIV.

So who is arguing a basic tenent of basic medicine ? this is ancient history, I have once in a blue moon accidentaly eaten my food with unwashed hands and gotten sick, if your dog licks your mouth, you can often get sick too, what exactly is your point ? love of fighting simply for fighting ?

 

A very good warning to the millions of hetrosexuals who enjoy anal sex, safe sex is no accident!

 

or anybody that has hands or buys produce.

 

True, thanks for reminding us. I am sure VOS will endorse our amendments to his health warning.

 

Perhaps. I remember a particular issue with spinach a few years back.

 

Popeye the sailor man says its very good for you.

I wonder if VOS has been in the navy.

 

not sure. I doubt it though.

 

I think you are right, people who have been in the armed services and traveled a lot tend to be much broader minded.

 

That had been my experience.

 

That's why I look at the people who eat grapes in the store with such disgust. Any number of horrible things could have come in contact with those grapes.

My brother was a producer manager for four grocery stores a couple years ago and yeah he thoroughly washes every bit of produce he buys. He actually had gone to the farms that produced it. That was when he adopted his washing policy. In fact when he visits for dinner he wants to either wash the produce or watch me wash it.

He won't eat salads or uncooked vegetables and fruits in restaurants.

But apparently the illness is caused by homosexuals. Who can eat a cucumber without thinking about...well you know.

 

Do you look at male homosexuals with disgust who eat feces?

 

Can you explain the difference between heterosexual anal sex and homosexual anal sex from a health point of view, your comment would seem to indicate that heterosexuals who eat feces are different?

 

Big picture time for non-bigots. If you really want to reduce this particular disease, the place to start is to pressure agribusiness all across the globe, to provide sanitary and convenient access to restrooms and handwashing stations to field workers and then document where they dump the waste from them. We are buying produce from countries that either do not provide convenient port-a potty access, or dump the waste straight into the fields or near water sources which irrigate.

After that it is about promoting produce or vegetable wash use, either the products or even a homemade recipe , both in stores but in our homes

Those field workers are not gay men looking for a quickie. They are desperate to relieve themselves and not get into trouble for wasting an hour or more of time just walking to and from the only facility in acres of product.

Coprophilia is predominately, a heterosexual thing.

 

I don't know of any that eat feces. Eating feces is gross regardless if sexual orientation.

 

Allow me.

"Homosexual men who aren't ashamed of their sexual orientation cause me insecurity because I'm ashamed of my sexuality. And if I convince myself of all these horrible things and that they only go against homosexuals and not heterosexuals perhaps I can be straight."

The poor little tike hasn't gotten to the point where he attempts to date women and finds it extremely difficult.

It's extremely familiar.

 

All the Anti anything people seem cut from the same bolt of defective cloth, they pick the worst case examples to make their point, and yet, they have no merrit to their bigotry, only hate and vitriole and glaring ignorance of real facts, I don't know of anyone that eats feces willingly, I do know folks that do not wash their hands after using the restroom, and if they prepare food with unwashed hands and serve you..... You know the rest.

If you had all the contaminants you have unwittingly ingested over a lifetime, placed in front of you in a big pile, feces included, it might make you very ill, to be suddenly made aware of it.

Something most people would rather remain blissfully ignorant of.

 

Someone seems a bit "Anal" retentive in their repeated Anti Gay male rants.

 

What world do you live in where this is even remotely common?

I'm a queer man and I have a lot of weird fetishes, but I've never heard of this being something practiced by anyone outside of some really fringe community.

 

LOL and Amen!!

 

I must have eaten a gay double cheeseburger at McDonalds.

 

I was in an ER exam room for 3 days due to
E-Coli from contaminated White Castle hamburgers, likely someone did not wash their hands and gifted me a sickness, as Medical, I received the best treatment.

 

You can also get sick from cracking open dirty eggs, the bacteria mixes in from the contaminated egg shell.

 

And you know this....how?
