If your partner gets a clean bill of health from a typical STD test done by a clinic or primary care doc, it will not include HPV. You won’t know that your new spouse had it until oh, about 4-6 months later.

And then you’d better hope your spouse doesn’t stray and bring back something you’ll have to live with for the rest of your life. The sad fact is that half of marriages today end in divorce, and a large percentage of those involve infidelity.

Considering that my future spouse is a nurse, I should think that we’d know how to properly test for STDs including HPV.

I already said I do medical research. Why do you persist in assuming that I’m one of the ‘typical sort’.

I realize you have a screed of infidelity and fear to perpetuate, but you are simply fearmongering. Yes, half of all marriages end in divorce, but not half of those who marry end up divorced.

And a significant margin of those who commit infidelity are men. So if I can keep my pants on, that’s a significant reduction.

I’m not going to get a vaccine just because I don’t trust my fiancee. I would simply not marry her unless I trusted here. But apparently I’m not in the real world of hookers and courtesans. Of casual shack ups and hookups.

And I suspect that world has far greater concerns than HPV.
