You're not allowed to donate if you've had male-to-male sex in the last 12 months.
Which was stricter than I expected; I thought they'd specify unprotected. But it's more lenient than some places in the USA who ban anyone who's gay irrespective of sexual experience.

Over here, you can’t give blood if you are a man who has ever had sex with another man. If you are a woman who has sex with a man who has had sex with another man, you can give blood after 12 months. I know several people who are entitled to give blood but don’t: they boycott the National Blood Service because of their discrimination. Strikes me as a ruling that’s not only unscientific but flatly not in line with the national blood shortage.[/QUOTE]
