I remember 1962 when our gym coach and health instructor told us our section of the country was free of VD. Then came the sexual revolution.
Within 10 years VD was so rampant here that you dared not pick up a skank at an Oklahoma state line bar as everyone I know who did came down with syph, clap or crab lice. Same for a big University in the next county where Bill Clinton was seen in an anti-war protest climbing a tree naked as a jay bird. Two of our workers picked up some gal there and she gave both the clap.
I remember my gym coach telling us about VD and that it was contracted through sex. Long time ago.
Since then I have watched guys, gays, gals get VD or Herpes, or HIV. Come into the hospital, get some treatment, and go away. Repeat.
No one listened and they pay the price for the rest of their lives. Some call it living, I call it slow suicide.
