What I was more commenting on is the whole "well, we won't admit to it, because they test it all anyway" mentality of many in the gay community regarding the question. They completely miss the issue at hand, which is that the law is stupid.
If every man answered that question truthfully, many think that there would be a crisis. The American Red Cross has almost outright said to the gay community, "look, we really WANT you to answer the question truthfully, because until there's a crisis of lack of donors they feel they can't really get the FDA to even look at the problem.
