If your insurance covers it, and you want to do it annually, do it, but the medical community seems to agree that it's not really that necessary. Over-testing can have negative consequences, as well, especially when you look at it from a public health standpoint.

Exactly. You can have an abnormal pap smear for reasons other than cervical cancer or pre-cancerous lesions that can cause you to have unnecessary biopsies. Not everyone in monogamous relationships have trust issues. Some people in monogamous relationships should have trust issues. If you aren't in a monogamous relationship, get your yearly pap, otherwise, it has been proven safe to go three years between paps.
