You can't say that it's easier for someone to get something because they have a higher rate of infection.


It's due to behavior. Women have sex with men that other women desire, so IF these guys get STDs, they spread them to other women, hence why women have higher STD infections than men, because women desire men that other women desire.
This makes sense to me.

This is scary for single people. What else are they infected with? No one reveals they have HIV.

I suppose now we'll be required to pay additional premiums on our health insurance to cover this mostly liberal disease.

You did not say that!!! You can't possibly be that uninformed!!!
Then I looked to see who posted such foolishness... oh yeah!

Ever think of changing your Username?? to something more accurate...

after all, with all the inane and insipid threads you start and equal quality posts, we've pretty much have "Identified" you...

Good boy!

I've had a lot of really good sex with a lot of really hot men and I'm smart enough not to get infected with anything. Ever.

(Take your hand out of your lap sweetheart, it looks bad)

Good luck with that Heaven thing!

Kisses!

Love Ya!
Seriously? You are going to attack someone like this? Some of us understood that sex was meant to be a gift between a man and a woman that was only to be shared in marriage. Those of us who waited and never have to deal with any STD look upon these stats and wonder what the rest of you are thinking. To put it another way, think about this: every time you have sex with a new partner roll a six sided dice, if you roll a one guess what, you have herpes.

Those of that chosen lifestyle accept that disease comes with the territory so they try to convince themselves and others it is no big deal. I would never put myself in that position to have to live with a lifelong disease that could be prevented.

"this mostly liberal disease"?

Anything factual to support that statement? Are doctors now requiring one state their politics before receiving treatment? Or just another round of baseless blather?
