Reader Feedback on "Truth and Consequences"
up until the 1900's sexually transmitted diseases like syphilis caused death. what was the legal response in the past to a person infecting another with syphillis ( prior to penicillin)?

if criminal punishment is necessary, the punishment(s) for both the negative and positive sex partner should be the exact same. how is it fair ( in the absence of lying or rape) to blame one party for inflicting harm on another, while allowing the other party to inflict harm on himself. the negative party obviously has more to lose, so if he engages in reckless behavior, why shouldn't he be punished along with the positive person (who may well assume his partner either is positive or doesn't care about protecting himself)? it makes no sense to me that one can be allowed to engage in reckless sexual behavior as long as one is negative.

not an easy issue. it seems clear that hiv positive folk who have unprotected sex without informing their partner of their condition should be treated as severely as a drunk driver, but not as severely as a full on attempted murderer. undoubtedly decades old aids fear has exagerrated the punishment beyond reason; that said, i think that guy is delusional if he thinks all responsibility lies with his partners.
