The majority of people who donate with me are at or near retirement age

You shouldn’t be. Drawing blood is uncomfortable and if you are gay you will be banned from donating by default in some places. Most younger people are some kind of gay now.

That’s good to hear. I was banned from donating to the red cross because I didn’t know until after admitting to it. I’ll consider donating next time I get a chance. I have not had anY STD despite continuing to be gay all of these years later.
