Doctors said sexually transmitted diseases among senior citizens are running rampant at a popular Central Florida retirement community, according to a Local 6 News report.
A gynecologist at The Villages community near Orlando, Fla., said she treats more cases of herpes and the human papilloma virus in the retirement community than she did in the city of Miami.
"Yeah, they are very shocked (to hear the diagnosis)," gynecologist Dr. Colleen McQuade said. "I had a patient in her 80s."
"More and more senior citizens are ending up in the gynecologist office, and their diagnosis is a sexually transmitted disease," Local 6 reporter Vanessa Medina said.
Local 6 featured Louis Franklin, who used to date in the community at least three times a week.
"I have had a better dating life since I have been here than I have ever had," Franklin said. "I know there are things going around."
A doctor blamed Viagra, a lack of sex education and no risk for pregnancy for the spike in sexually transmitted diseases at The Villages.
"All I can repeat are the things I have heard which are things like, 'Should I bring the little blue pills over tonight?'" community singles group president Richard Matwyshen said.

That virus has been found in breast cancer cultures, lung cancer cultures, throat cancer cultures, stomach cancer cultures, and pancreatic cancer cultures. The new vaccine developed to stop HPV may actually have a very dramatic effect on the other cancer stats.
These folks are the WW II Generation, and they're apparently banging like bunnies.
This is nothing more than a "May sweeps" story. I mean, they only quote one named doctor and she conveniently fails to mention any actual numbers.
I have driven past "The Villages" many times. If I had known what was going on there I would have stopped in for a short visit :)
These people are way beyond boomers. Boomers haven't reached this age yet. These are old old f*rts.
You just gave me the dry heaves. Thanks
If they haven't figured it out by then, they never will.
.....Isn't The Villages the place advertised on FNC from time to time? ......
I thought they were playing golf for life .... and line dancing.
...."Then she brought her friends over and I broke out the whips 'n' chains"....
"Oh! Me so horny..."
I thought Bill Clinton was living in Harlem?
Condoms don't prevent the spread of HPV, and it leads to the death of thousands of American women every year. The CDC's website admits these things, but they choose not to publicize it too much, for fear that people will stop relying on condoms.
Someone asked me how this could happen.I replied,'Depends.
Well....apparently, they are sticking with the golf theme in that balls and holes are involved. I guess they're covering the dancing part with the 'horizontal bop.'
Salacious pong back at ya!
