Ah yes, bug chasers causing a rise in STDs.

Can I get a grant to do a study?

IIRC, syph was a gift to Europe from the central American natives, first seen in Lisbon after Columbus’s second trip... I think it has a different name then though...

How can this be? We were told that all the homosexuals had faithful partners and only wanted to be able to be married like normal folks.

Dang. It’s getting harder and harder for me to find a clean Cabana Boy in my Golden Years!

Nowadays, I don’t even want one washed and brought to my tent. Better to have him washed, dry-cleaned, dipped for fleas, doused for ring worm and shot full of penicillin before I even read his resume.

What’s a rich old broad to do? ;) (Don’t answer that, LOL!)

"Funny, they never tell us what this phrase means."

They also don't tell us that the reason that women and heterosexual men are getting syphilis more often is that they are now more likely engaging in similar activities.

My confusion is why do the liberals call it an STD?

As everyone knows, after the Clinton administration, the only thing that is "sex" is normal sex.

All this other stuff is just foreplay.

They should call them FTD's ... which would be appropriate since they will soon be receiving flowers in the hospital ... or delivered to their gravesites.

Most cases of syphilis are in men, and experts point to more risky sex among gay men as the chief cause for the resurgence.

But if you actually say that in Britain you will be prosecuted for HATE SPEECH!

Great Line.
