don't they turn you down (or not use the blood anyway) if you're gay?

peabody · 10-18-2002, 03:50 PM

well, i understand why they turned me down. it makes sense, 'cause of malaria and stuff.

but i was all excited to give blood today, and they were all NO!

I once got turned down because I had taken an acne medication 3 months prior.

Good thing I didn't tell them about all of the unprotected butt sex I had with anonymous strangers the night before.

no.

they cannot ask that.

they turn you down if you are a man who has had sex, even once, with a man since 1977. or if you've had sex with a man who has been imprisoned. or if you've exchanged money for sex.

Am I the only one who sees the irony in this? "We can't ask if you are gay, but have you had buttsex with a man since 1977?"

i know this sounds terrible- but i lie when i give blood. they don't know about my tattoo or anything. they're going to test the shit out of it anyway.

Why lie? If they find something bad in it they will just pour it down the sink anyway. You might as well just tell the truth. There is no reason to give blood if they are not going to use it.

every time i have tried to give blood, they say i dont have enough water in my system and the blood was clotting up too fast.

oh well. i only did it to get u's off my citizenship grade anyway.
