Since HIV/AIDS worldwide is primarily a HETEROSEXUAL disease, why do some insist on calling it a gay disease

Since HIV/AIDS worldwide is primarily a HETEROSEXUAL disease, why do some insist on calling it a gay disease?
I realize that in the US it was first detected in homosexuals, but it was already being passed between heterosexuals in numerous other countries and continues to be a disease that primary affects heterosexuals. To hear it called a "gay disease" makes one think that people with suspect agendas are trying to wrongfully inspire hatred and bigotry by associating the disease with a segment of the population they don't like or understand, don't you think?

your absolutely right. its all about trying to hate someone and target a particular group of people..mainly the GLBTIQ community.
3 :
many of the people that call it a gay disease, are also the ones who take three or four obscure verses from the bible and twist them to "prove" their claim that god hates gays.
4 :
Being a person living with HIV, and knowing many people with I would defiantly say it is a human disease, it now less of a problem in gay community now because we were hit the hardest at the beginning and we learned to take precautions, where as the ones who said it was a punishment from God thought that they wouldn't contact the disease and so they did not take the precautions and now its running rampant in the hetero community. So I guess God doesn't care who he punishes, what kind of God is that, not my God.
