  Do You Talk About AIDS On The First Date?
  
  "Phillip: I sure do.
  
  You’re serious?
  
  Yes.
  
  Phillip: Why?
  
  A lot of people don’t like to talk about AIDS.
  
  Phillip: Yeah, I think that’s pretty strange.
  
  Why?
  
  Phillip: Nobody talks about it. But everybody’s afraid of getting it.
  
  Are you afraid?
  
  Phillip: Of AIDS– yes. Of talking about it–no.
  
  So, how do you start the discussion?
  
  Phíllip: Well, I wait for a lull in the conversation. Then, I say something like, “So, how do you feel about AIDS?”
  
  What sort of reaction do you get?
  
  Phillip: It certainly gets their attention."
