BBC NEWS | S Africa’s Zuma cleared of rape…

Mr Zuma said he had had a shower after sex to prevent HIV transmission and believed that a healthy man was unlikely to catch HIV from a woman.

What is it with African males? Jacob Zuma was Deputy President of South Africa until obliged to stand down because of indictment on rape and corrruption charges. He’s now been acquitted of the former, but faces trial for the latter in July.

The really weird thing, though, is that until these clouds appeared on his horizon Zuma was head of the council which advised the South African president on Aids.
