Uh, last time I checked it was pretty hard for boys to get cervical cancer. Yes but boys can spread the virus.

Uh, last time I checked it was pretty hard for boys to get cervical cancer.But they can get HPV. If this is a vaccine against the virus, shouldn't it be tested on men as well?

Boys can still get cancer from HPV, though not as frequently as boys. And they can still get flair-ups of warts from the disease. It’s pretty freaking common on college campuses, and condoms don’t fully prevent its spread.

But they DO carry HPV, and pass it on — even if they re not symptomatic. Wouldn’t it be prudent to wipe out the reservoir of HPV virus in the male population, as well?

Uh, last time I checked it was pretty hard for boys to get cervical cancer. But easy for boys to GIVE cervical cancer (HPV) to girls.
