Thanks again, Democrats! Destroy families, take God out of School and the Public Square and tell kids, "If it FEELS good, do it!"

And, thanks again, RINOS for not giving a rat's rump while they did it and being obstructionist Open Borders, Cheap Labor Pukes, allowing any diseased miscreant into America!

[MplsSteve]

I’m pretty certain I don’t have any - as of now.

Except for that odd burning...wait, never mind. I’m good.

An article from 2012 (Who was President then? I forget...) but still relevant.

Easily accessed pornography on the I-net is also a factor, IMO.

[Leep]

Misery likes company.

The agency noted earlier studies have pointed to a range of factors that could be tied to STD increases, "including socioeconomic factors like poverty, stigma, and discrimination; and drug use."

Come again? how does poverty, stigma and discrimination cause STD's? does it come in an envelope only poor people get thru the us mail? And there used to be a stigma about having sex outside of marriage and multiple partners. Sounds like a lack of stigma attached to sex. And discrimination? huh?? how does that work?? I agree the rise in drug use is the only factor mentioned that has caused a rise in std's not associated with the oversexualization of todays teens.

[taxcontrol]

I have noticed a rise in STDs, and other diseases since we opened up our borders. I wonder why?

[BipolarBob]

pornography on the I-net gives you STDs??? Yikes.

[CivilWarBrewing]

Fortunately, 'The Clap' (chlamydia) can be defeated with antibiotics. WOMEN CAN HAVE CHLAMYDIA AND NOT EVEN REALIZE IT. Men, the symptom is more obvious.. Drip drip drip.

USE PROTECTION ALWAYS, but STD's often times don't care about such protection!

[A_Former_Democrat]

Right on. Sounds like excuses right out of the PC Playbook. “Discrimination” lol.

Add to your list: homosexuality, bisexuality, swingers, prostitution, Third World Immigration, both legal AND ILLEGAL (yeah, AP I L L E G A L), Hollywood, pornography

Common STD's??????

Wouldn't it be amazing if we had this thing called Ellis Island where we could detain immigrants to screen for so called "common STD's" before they infected the population of the USA. And wouldn't it be good if we had a Great Wall on our border to keep out illegal aliens who were carriers of STD's?

[Uversabound]

That right there is a South Park episode!

[IronJack]

There must be some way we can throw more money away on “education” and “prevention” while ignoring the immorality that’s at the root of the problem.

“The Clap” is Gonorrhea. Chlamydia is a different bacteria.

[MrNJ]

I guess it's official
More people are feeling the Bern burn. :D
