Quoted:
Jenny got Aids either from IV sharing which they showed in the sceen where she thinks about jumping off the balconey or she got Aids after Forrest JR. was born most likely she got Aids after she had Forrest JR. Forrest Senior did not have Aids Jenny did not give Forrest Aids and Forrest JR having Aids is not for sure but since he did not look sick when Forrest found out he was a father, I don't believe he had Aids. She could have had HIV before giving birth to Forrest Jr. Transmission from mother to child often occurs as the child is being born, and doesn't occur 100% of the time. If Jenny was on HIV meds (if they were available, I'm not sure when he was born), and/or if Forrest Jr was born by C-section with care not to expose him, there's a good chance he wouldn't have become infected. |

This thread is full of It was AIDS, and she got it after she had the kid. 20 seconds on youtube and you'll know things. We didn't know shit about AIDS in 1981 so the "we knowed all about it!" people can take a seat in the corner. She also clearly states she had a virus, so the cancer people can join them. IIRC, in 1981 AIDS (even among medical researchers) was "the mysterious gay disease." ...and intravenous drug addicts, like Jenny. |

Don't quote me on this, but I believe it's more likely for a child born to a HIV positive mother to be HIV negative than positive, especially if it's a birth with no major complications. |

Why would she even sleep with him? He was retarded. He was the only one in her life who had ever treated her with respect and love. Was this a serious answer? |

Quoted:
In the book, Forrest Gump was very different. He wasn't just a fast runner, he was an incredible physical speciman. Big and powerfully muscled. Jenny slept with him because he was hung like a horse, in addition to be a nice guy. In the book, he wasn't retarded, he was an idiot savant, and was brilliant in many ways. you learn something new everyday! |

Well. There was a sequel to Forrest Gump called Gump & Co. (according to the net....I've never read either) and there is no mention of Gump having issues related to HIV/AIDS so I would assume the answer is no.

That's what I was thinking, but I wasn't sure about the actual statistics. I do know that most infections occur during child birth. With the higher viral loads in the time before HIV drugs, too, I wasn't sure how mother->child transmission differed. |

I always wondered this too..... It would make a terrific Forrest Gump 2!!!! In the planned Gump & Co. sequel, which is is likely to never get off the ground: The setting is the present with a middle aged Forrest Gump and all the Forrest Gump things happened in a movie. Forrest Gump meets Tom Hanks who played him in the movie. It kinda doesn't make sense at all to me, and sounds like a flop. There's that, and Tom Hanks doesn't like doing sequels (outside of Toy Story / Voice only ) Here's the whole thing: Following the success of the movie, Winston Groom wrote a sequel novel, 'Gump & Co.' (1995), which referenced the movie as if it had been released in Forrest's world (he mentions that the movie was inaccurate - that is, compared to the first novel's canon - and brought him unwanted press attention). Forrest also meets Tom Hanks in the novel. |

Nah, she humped him up the one time only and she didn't get the AIDS until the heroine guy knocked her up.
That's right kids, Forrest lives to a ripe old age raising someone elses son. Lt. Dan knew it too, but also knew that telling him would just fuck him up. The kid grew up never wanting for much and had the protection of a gozillionaire that was retard strong and would throw down to protect him. The kid knew or would shortly figure it out but also realized that Forrest really loved him as his own and let that sleeping dog lay. |

So what's the transmission rate of HIV per sexual encounter? I just wonder if people ever get lucky and dodge the bullet. Circumsized? F to M? 1 in 300. how about if the uncircumsized guys hold their foreskin back until her vag fluids are dry? |

He must not have been *that* retarded. He grew up to be a lawyer in Philadelphia but then got stranded on an island...

Quoted: His retard genes probably beat the shit out of AIDS and had a quaint little story to tell about it This. He was Retard Strong. It was demonstrated again and again. AIDS couldn't beat him, any more than the kids in the pickup truck, or the hippy at the Black Panther party, or the VC could. When you think about it, the whole damned movie was about Retard Strength (tm). |

Nah, Aids was ruled out in the movie. Doctors knew about hiv/aids before the time line in which she told Forest about being sick. She had a McGuffin. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile You've just solved the mystery of what was in the Ronin case. Jenny was a victim of this top secret bioweapon, that would later be desired by various nefarious organizations. |

So, to clarify, is that 1 in 300 encounters lead to transmission or the other way around?Quoted:

Honestly, the more I see that movie, the more I get sick of the whole "Jenny" thing. She was a druggie whore. She had psychological problems due to being sexually abused by her father. |

She was a whore. so was Forrest's mother She only did that to get her son a decent education. This movie is my favorite and I've watched it over 100 times. Whenever it comes on TV I MUST watch it. I can recite almost all the dialogue word for word. Get a few beers in me and I'm unstoppable. Loves me some Forrest Gump. I'm this way with The Blues Brothers, and I have been at it for 31 years, can't be helped. |

The more I think about it, I've come to the conclusion that jenny, who had AIDS, likely gave it to forrest when they had sex. And I'd think its likely that they had sex after being married too. BAM! Jenny gave forrest the HIV, the GRID or whatever you call it. Poor bastard fights in 'Nam, loses a buddy, starts a successful shrimp boat company, invests in some sort of fruit company, then the HIV. Hasnt been a Forrest Gump Part 2 has there????wonder why, LOL J- |
