These people in Manhattan play around until one day they wake up at 50, herpes ridden, single, and gotta wonder what the hell they did it all for.

I always laugh at the commercials for these drugs. They show two fairly attractive people, supposedly in love, and then the reveal: one or both have a social disease, but they are very careful not to pass it on to the loved one!

Well, where did they get it? How many “loved ones” were there before this one?

How many other men’s dirty dishes did he eat off before presenting his dirty dish to the “new love”???

Let’s say you find someone you love. They have herpes. They had 1 or 2 boyfriends before you and one of them had it. Let’s say they kept it strictly to kissing and making out but they still got it. So when you get it, does that make you promiscuous, or are you being too resumptive in your rhetoric?

This isn’t HIV with a narrow transmission vector. This is a easily communicable virus attested to by it’s cousin being found in a large majority of Americans.

Let's say I'm female. I wouldn't be kissing any man in this day and age unless he had a health test.

I gave my sons that advice. They're both married to disease free young women. Of course, neither of these young women gave it away for free either. They're wonderful. They were brought up to respect themselves and their future mates.

Correct... and none of my 12 nephews and nieces have any STDs either, nor do they take drugs, nor do they smoke, and those over 21 only drink socially.

And, believe it or not, they are far from boring people. Some are married. One single is a head chef at a major resort in Hawaii... 3 CPAs, 3 IT, 1 nurse who's also a Second Lieutenant in the Army stationed at Walter Reed, her twin will be interning in China for a year beginning in July (college major: economics/Chinese), 1 Executive Head Hunter, 2 college students, and 1 will be a senior in high school next year. And, by the way, all of the spouses are professionals too... special ed teacher, pediatric nurse practitioner, 2 physicians assistants, and an Executive Head Hunter with an MBA who is married to the other Executive Head Hunter.

All of them have been oversees on exchange and/or travel.

To say the least, my family is blessed.

This is New York City, not flyover country. People actually WANT to live there because there are numerous potential partners to have sex with. Gay and straight, and every kink imaginable. That’s the whole idea behind Sex And The City. I’m surprised it’s only 26%.

I referred to “20% of adults in this country”, not NYC.

“Free NYC condoms are available at locations throughout the city. Call 311 or visit www.nyc.gov/condoms for more information.”

And the beat goes on....

You are confusing genital herpes with cold sores. I’ve read that 65% of Americans have the herpes virus (the kind that causes cold sores or genital - they can be interchanged), but not everyone has outward symptoms.

“To say the least, my family is blessed.”

To say the least, you are an absolute idiot. How in the hell would you know if your nephews or nieces have STDs??? They only drink socially? You hang out with them every night to know this? CPAs dont’ get drunk and screw around?? What kind of person would tell their aunt or uncle if they did?!

I’ve met your type before. The type who thinks their daughter is a little angel, when in fact she is the class slut. You are seriously pathetic.

Cold sores are HSVI and genital herpes are HSVII. Interesting fact, they don’t always afflict their proper areas.

I wish I had a way to edit the post to be clearer. There is HSVI and HSVII. Generally HSVI is facial with HSVII being genital. But it’s not always the case.
