This article & this one talk about the problem of meth in the LGBT community. Since the 90's, this drug has prevalent in the gay scene. One of the studies covered in the articles states that if someone from these groups had used meth in the past year, then they were 4 times more apt to contract HIV.
This is an enormous problem. This drug can heighten one's sexual arousal & impair one's judgement regarding risky behavior. This isn't something that went away with the old millenia, in fact it's gotten worse in some regional areas, like south Florida. There is no good reason to get involved with meth. Meth can kill you on it's own & it can lead you into host of other issues, like HIV & other STD's.
Cya...
