I'm sorry, but if a person asks a potential sex partner if that person has HIV, I think he'd expect that potential partner to be legally bound to truthfully answer:

'I'd rather not say.'

'I don't know.'

'Yes, I do.'

'No, I don't.'

Or any other truthful answer. If asked, while he should be allowed to refuse to answer, he should be legally bound to tell the truth at least. Telling the truth in such a situation is more than reasonable for simple reasons of public safety.

Kinda scary that 1 in 5 don't know they're infected.... Kinda makes picking up in Thunder Bay a little more scarier

Of course. I'm just saying though that the idea that a person should be legally allowed to lie about his status to a potential sex partner is cray... at least in the absence of compensatory laws.

If some chick gave me HIV I'd be super pissed. I'd probably kill a male member of her family!
