I don't know what FWB is, but STDs and cheating are nothing new. They've been around for centuries.

PB, i agree with Mulattogyrl, Idk what FWB is, but it's easy for you to judge about having an STD and I personally don't, however I do have friends that have had them and luckily been able to get medication to get rid of them. These people are not sexually promiscious and were in long term relationships, and their s.o. cheated or other similar situations.

My point is, you're taking an article as truth that isn't true (I myself did think that this could be true, but have since decided otherwise) and using it to go on your tirade. People are not always truthful, maybe in your perfect world, with your perfect girl, people don't cheat, no one has an STD and everything is great. However, that is not real life. Don't shove your ideals on other people and judge them for doing otherwise

Either way, you all be careful with your lovers and make them wear a physical barrier. And if you are female who has sex with males, use some level of birth control if you are not planning on pregnancy...

Because the worst is giving birth with an active STI (sexually transmitted infection) infection that gets passed on to the kid.

As far as "throat cancer" by oral sex. The mouth has everything in it. Throat cancer is like a squamous cell carcinoma (I think?). That means the cells had some nasty bug, like yeast or a tape worm, or environmental trigger, like smoking, that set it off. Unless dude eats leaded dirt with human poop and drinks battery acid, a generalized STI, like HPV or Herpes, is not going to survive the esophageal mastication. It could happen, but extremely rare and highly unlikely.

lol

I just skimmed through the article, and I've never heard of getting cancer from having oral sex. My dentist told me that you can get cancer of the mouth just by not taking care of your teeth and gums. I wonder if the people that this article applies to just have bad hygiene.

Sweatheart, your <1 minute climax concluding in ejaculation is not worth all the drug regimens required to minimize utter pain by having an sexually transmitted infection, including HIV/AIDS. J/K




Everyone here, you all need to know how to crank it out before you get your groove on... Somewhere, I tell you all how and some folks don't like it.

Kama Sutra and Tantra... Really.

Sometimes challenges can be chores.

Minus 12 points for not following the proper article posting protocol.

And sorry, this "article" lost all its credibility once I saw the words that were obviously chosen to replace "penis" and "vagina".

Virus Spread by Oral Sex Is Linked to Throat Cancer

By Rob Stein

The sexually transmitted virus that causes cervical cancer also sharply increases the risk of certain types of throat cancer among people infected through oral sex, according to a study being published today.

(I don't know if anyone had linked this yet... I totally thought this article was fake until I googled it!)

I have access to the abstract of the study (as well as the full article actually) would posting an abstract be w/in fair use or should I just post a citation for anyone who actually feels like reading the study.
