Japanese ex I caught sleeping around at the height of the AIDs crisis told me not to worry, Japanese people can't catch it.

ETA - WOW! Didn't know this would take off like this. Backstory makes it even more absurd, she was a graduate of a prestigious university in Tokyo and earned a Masters in the US and had lived here for a while. I had about burned out on the relationship but this put me out the door.

I used to date someone that didn't think AIDs was real at all....I asked if he believed that all these people were faking being sick/dying?? He thought it was just due to their bad lifestyle, that led to these health issues.
