Cervical cancer doesn't effect men, and, I guess you gotta
stray away from the African AMERICANS!

Only 1 in 4? Looks like I've really got my work cut out for me when I get to Vegas.

Yes simply request a blood sample before hand.. I'm sure you'll be good to go after that. :) :thumbsup:

That's racists! :rofl:

[phrozen]

No it isn't I'm not saying that against all africans,
just the American ones. I'm sure Canada is a lot better,
besides banff. lol.

Whatever man... just play the odds. Only bang 3 girls instead of 4 per city you visit on vacation :thumbsup:

ive also heard banff is std city
1 in 4 is gross, get them tested!!

[kerry]

You guys are ridiculous. If 4 attractive women came up to you in one day and wanted to fuck you, you would not say "get tested first sweetie"

[JRSC00LUDE]

I say if you put a few people with each STD on an island and leave them there long enough, they'll eventually breed a cure. Or at the very least, a totally disease resistant godsend to the porn/prostitution industry.

[core_upt]

When the story first appeared on CNN they used the image below to run along side it.... even if the 'facts' suggest that African Americans are the highest positive group, the image still suggests that "Black people make you sick in your special spot". Way to go CNN!

From what Leo told me, they call that place New Zealand. He's coming back soon with a cure! :rofl:

I heard syphilis was on the rise in Calgary lol :P

I read that article and I think it was mostly taking into account HPV's high rate of affected women.

Women can get HPV vaccinations now. Its actually recommended by most doctors...Sort of like a flu shot for sexually active females. And hey...if something actually prevents cancer in todays world...go science!

Just be sure next time you have a bar star follow you home that you dont fall victim to the gonorr-syphi-clap-aids even faster :P

[R-Audi]

Just to clarify the banff std thing.. It 'had' (dont know current facts) the highest STD rate PER CAPITA.. not STD capital of NorthAmerica.. meaning for example more people out of 100 would have an STD.. then say Calgary.. but you better believe more people in Calgary have STD's then Banff..

And another.. I bet it would be around 30+% of the sexually active guys on here carry HPV.. thing is you'll never know it, as there are no tests for guys! (Well that is unless you caught the strain that means warts.. otherwise its generally harmless for guys.

[mikestang]

std's are fun, i like to name mine in song

[Kritafo]

HPV vaccinations are new and cost about $400.00, Dr.'s are already raising questions about this new vaccination. They still aren't even sure how long the vaccination will be active once given. You would think they would know?

I wish they would make up their mind on this one since I have a 12 year old daughter.

don't just ask the women to get tested... get the men tested.

Thats the thing, there is no HPV test for Men... So Guys dont know they have it... and unless its a certain strain wont affect us. Even if the vacc. only lasts a few years.. isnt it better then nothing? (It only covers a few of the strains as well)

NO what I meant was...ask your girls to get tested for STD's before having sex...ask the men to get tested for STD's as well..

HPV affects men.

[Kritafo]

men can get warts from HPV

Can.. but thats one or two of something like 20+ strains.. the other ones go undetected... so even if every guy did get tested.. the other 18 go un-noticed.

[BlkMaxima]

This thread is gross. :barf:

[treg50]

^ It's a small dose of reality.

BTW, the dirty sons of whores who go around infecting girls doesn't help either.

22% of the US has herpes

[mikestang]

Results of a nationally representative study show that genital herpes infection is common in the United States. Nationwide, at least 45 million people ages 12 and older, or one out of five adolescents and adults, have had genital HSV infection. Over the past decade, the percent of Americans with genital herpes infection in the U.S. has decreased.

Genital HSV-2 infection is more common in women (approximately one out of four women) than in men (almost one out of eight). This may be due to male-to-female transmission being more likely than female-to-male transmission.
