The Red Cross bans any gay man from donating blood in the USA. This is antiquated as ALL BLOOD IS TESTED, regardless of orientation. Furthermore, other high risks groups are allowed to donate, including Latinos, drug users and lesbians, so why are male homosexuals banned? Especially when ALL BLOOD IS TESTED? Some people may be sick or infected and not be aware, that is why ALL BLOOD IS TESTED, so why is there a specific ban on gay men? Many of us want to donate and should be allowed.
