Not only that but I'm still a little skeptical about this "vaccine" (admittedly I have not done any research on this at all). I find it hard to belief that a vaccine prevents cancer. It appears to me that the vaccine prevents the sexually transmitted virus which, in turn, prevents the cancer from developing, so it's not really the same as a CANCER VACCINE, which is what everyone is calling it.
If I had a daughter I honestly don't know what I'd do. I'd want to believe she would not become sexually active outside of a marital relationship, but I also live in the real world and the culture has just brainwashed our girls (and boys) to the point that it makes me sad.
Did you read "Porn Generation" by any chance? That book was written by a young man and it was really depressing.
Exactly. Also, the vaccine only takes care of 70% of cervical cancer caused by HPV. The company is calling it anti-cancer though, not anti-std. Maybe they're hoping to avoid the objections that came with the Hepatitis B vaccine?
My objections are based more on health issues. It's like that with any vaccine. I'm currently ridden with lyme disease and have been for years, but I still oppose the lyme vaccine because it's been proven to cause more lyme than prevent it. Any vaccine that hasn't been tested extensively should be treated delicately, I think, and not mandated unless there's an epidemic.
