	<description><![CDATA[(Toronto Star) -- The federal blood donor agency is lifting its lifetime ban on gay men giving blood, but serious restrictions mean few gay or bisexual men are likely to start offering up their veins. Canadian Blood Services announced Wednesday it has received approval from Health Canada to reduce its restriction on men who have sex with men donating blood from indefinitely to five years. “We do not anticipate that this will bring a large number of gay men forward to the blood donor pool,” Dr. Dana Devine, vice-president of medical, scientific and research affairs at the federal blood donor agency said in a telephone news conference Wednesday... ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA["Their knee-jerk reflex shows that this survey is highly needed, and that unfortunately, equality still has a lot of opponents.” On May 17, the International Day Against Homophobia, the EU’s Agency for Fundamental Rights will release the results of a 2-year worldwide LGBT survey compiled from over 93,000 validated responses. Despite the fact that the results have not yet been published, the US-based Catholic Family & Human Rights Institute is already disavowing the study, and even calling it "made up." ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[New York not "sitting on its hands": New York's first openly-gay lawmaker, Sen. Deborah Glick, has introduced a new bill to ban all gay cure, or reparative therapy, in the state. The bill, which is similar to current legislation on hold in California and a bill in the works in New Jersey, would ban all medical practitioners from attempting to change a minor's sexual orientation. Glick: "There are often challenges to any manner of legislation that is protecting of the LGBT community and you can't sit on your hands and wait until things get resolved somewhere else."

	<description><![CDATA[Chance vs. effectiveness: The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases  (NIAID) has ended an 2009 HIV infection vaccination trial, the HVTN 505 clinical trial, because more subjects became infected with the new HIV drug than the control group on the placebo. Researchers concluded that while the higher number of HIV infections may be due to chance, the results indicate that the vaccine is not effective. For more, click the link below. ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Reparative repeal: Today in California, three judges in the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals will hear testimony in the repeal case of California's reparative therapy ban, which would have gone into effect Jan. 1 if the law had not been temporarily suspended. The law, which has spawned similar legislation in New Jersey, stated that medical practitioners could not perform gay cure therapy on minors, which could cause irreparable psychological damage. Today's judges will decide if this damage can be quantified, and if there is evidence of damage. Also on the minds of the judges: is gay cure therapy protected free speech, or medical practice?

	<description><![CDATA[Baby daddy worries: A new study out of Pennsylvania State University has found that bisexual men are more likely to be jealous of female partners than male partners, citing researchers to find that "sexual envy" is related to reproduction. The study, which was published in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, found that bisexual men are more worried about mis-led fatherhood than emotional fidelity: "A man dating a man doesn't have to worry about accidentally raising another man's baby if his partner gets pregnant. But if that same man is dating a woman, he can't be entirely sure that any baby she has is his, which could have led to more anxiety about sexual fidelity." ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA["Just being gay has no impact on risk for getting infection." The AIDS Healthcare Foundation, which is giving out 10,000 free meningitis vaccinations in Los Angeles this week, reminded the nation that even though transmittal rates are high in New York's gay community and a 33-year-old gay man died in LA after being infected last week, bacterial meningitis is "not a gay disease" or an STD. The fatal disease can be spread through kissing, respiratory secretion or sharing food. For more, click the link below. ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[The LA Gay and Lesbian Center and Los Angeles County Department of Public Health are sounding the alarm after a 33-year-old gay lawyer in West Hollywood was killed by meningitis a week after attending the Palm Springs White Party, an event that draws in gay men from all over the world. Early treatment is critical, so officials are asking gay men who attended to the event to see a doctor immediately if flu symptoms, including a rash and stiff neck, occur.

	<description><![CDATA[A small price to pay: A new study has found that if gay men spend $288 per year on HIV prevention, the going rate as of 2013, they will stay HIV-free and save the city over  $7,000 per person for drugs alone: "the authors believe their study was the first to pinpoint a specific dollar value that would ensure cooperation from 70 percent of a risk group — in this case, young gay and bisexual men, who have very high H.I.V. infection rates and are the drivers of Mexico’s epidemic."  The study also researched issues specifically within Mexico City's gay prostitute population, who often get paid more for condom-less sex. For more, click the link below. ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[The New York City Department of Health (DOH) is asking that all gay men be vaccinated for a deadly string of meningitis that has hit the city in the last 6 months. Last September, the DOH asked gay men with an HIV status or high-risk sex behavior to get vaccinated, but now all gay men are being asked to come forward for the vaccine. Since the outbreak, there have been 22 infections in the gay community, including 3 deaths. Meningitis, which is transmitted through sex, affects the spinal cord and brain.

	<description><![CDATA[Looks like someone was converted: After clearly stating yesterday that he was undecided on the state's proposed gay cure ban, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has backtracked with the help of his spokesperson, Kevin Roberts: “Governor Christie does not believe in conversion therapy. There is no mistaking his point of view on this when you look at his own prior statements where he makes clear that people’s sexual orientation is determined at birth.” Chris Christie, who vetoed the state's gay marriage bill, continues to oppose gay marriage. ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Politi-speak: New Jersey Governor and possible 2016 Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie is not speaking for (or against) the state's proposed gay conversion, or gay cure, ban, which would limit medical practitioners from trying to change a minor's sexual orientation: "On bills that restrict parents ability to make decisions on how to care for their children, I’m generally a skeptic of those bills. Now there can always be exceptions to those rules and this bill may be one of them.” Christie's statements follow a more stringent disavowing of Sen. Rob Portman's views on gay marriage.

This week, in a response to the VAWA (Violence Against Women Act) amendment to include LGBT protection, Stockman said: "This is a truly bad bill. This is helping the liberals, this is horrible. Unbelievable... It’s called a women’s act, but then they have men dressed up as women, they count that. Change-gender, or whatever. How is that — how is that a woman?"
