FRONT ROYAL, Virginia, April 29, 2003 (pop.org/LifeSiteNews.com) - In Africa, nearly 6 out of 10 victims of HIV/AIDS are women. Why does the disease disproportionately strike African women? Because, say the gender feminists at the United Nations, they are powerless to refuse sex with HIV-positive men.
The Population Research Institute, in its April 29 Weekly Briefing, disagrees with this ideologically-motivated assessment. It believes that the targeting of women and girls for invasive contraceptive, sterilization and abortion procedures by so-called Sexual and Reproductive Health programs is largely responsible for AIDS among African women.
After examining the evidence, PRI concludes that women and girls account for such a high percentage of HIV/AIDS victims in Africa because they are infected during procedures designed to disable their reproductive systems and prevent them from conceiving or bearing children.
