Herpes

[I love Hyori Lee]

I wanted to make a poll to see how common or uncommon Herpes is.

ElStud probably has herpes. He kisses prostitutes.

What's with the third option?
If you've never had sex, but you have herpes (it is a possibility), you'd clearly know!

The Herpes virus can be contracted outside of sex; for instance, via exposure to body fluids, or just by skin-to-skin contact.


What country are you in?

The prevalenece rates for Herpes (by strain) in the US are:

68% of people carry HSV1.

26% of women carry HSV2.

In Australia, it's 79-80% for HSV1 and 11-15% for HSV2

Don't worry bout herpes. Its nothing and ppl get all hung up on it. If you suspect it, its up to you to disclose. Personally, I couldn't care less, its a risk to having sex with someone not tested and you must accept full responsibility.

Since most people never get tested for it cause in most people it shows no symptoms there is no way to know....

My ex-wife got it before she and I got married, but I never got it from her in seven years of sex without a condom.

Most herpes is spread shortly after being contracted. The virus is most active in the body right after infection, and then it goes down over time. Women who have had herpes for a while will come to know the tingling sensation that precedes an outbreak. That's why I never got herpes from my ex-wife; we simply did not have sex if she thought she might be getting an outbreak.

Daily meds like Valtrex or Famvir help most people keep outbreaks to a minimum.

I am John mccain and I approve of this message, HOWEVER............Herpes at this time is like the common cold...NO CURE.

Its costly and volunteering info is like revealing you are gay...........women quickly lose any sexual interest in you.
