1 in 3 Americans have an S.T.D. ... that seem high to you?
[NYTimes] The incidence of chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis is increasing, according to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. An estimated 110 million Americans now are infected with a sexually transmitted disease.
Well, it's not as surprising as one might think. Most times, unless it's an "oh, my, where did I misplace my penis" kind of thing, the symptoms can't be seen for years - or even ever. You can carry STD, without ever knowing about it.
No,not high. Especially with no sex ed and constant cheating/ one night stands
Good to know.
WoW....guess I don't get out enough. That number is surprising. Then again, I don't believe 90% of what the NYT publishes.
These "claims" are always inflated. Look at any "charity" for a specific disease and it will give you the % of the population who die from the one they are peddling. I looked it up one time and added all the diseases that kill and it ended up being around 200% of the population died from one of these diseases. I guess nobody dies from old age anymore.
