Why is there a higher rate of AIDS in the gay community?
<|assistant|>
The higher prevalence of AIDS in the gay community is due, at least in part, to the high incidence of risky sexual practices, such as unsafe anal intercourse and the exchange of sexually transmitted diseases. These practices are more prevalent in the gay population because of societal stigma, lack of education on sexually transmitted diseases, and difficulty maintaining partnerships. In addition, bisexual men and other men who have sex with men are at a greater risk for contracting HIV due to their greater exposure to the virus, increasing the likelihood of contracting HIV.
