from our local "paper": Studies tie oral sex to throat cancer in some men

of note:

Men probably obtain the virus by performing oral sex on women who have an HPV infection of the cervix. Ernster said the cancer could develop as late as 20 years after the oral sex occurred.

“Oral sex has implications that are way beyond what we first thought,” he said.

Ernster’s research is the latest in a growing body of studies that have established a connection between the HPV virus and oropharyngeal (throat) cancer. A study published online in August and in print this month in the journal Cancer similarly suggests that a rise in throat cancer among men younger than 45 can be attributed to the HPV virus.

Why cases among young men are increasing is unclear, but Ernster and others believe oral sex generally has become a more prevalent practice than in years past. Surveys have shown that attitudes toward oral sex are more casual than toward intercourse, and many people consider it an alternative to contraception or perceive it as safer. It does not, however, eliminate the risk of common sexually transmitted diseases.

and then DAMN:

The CDC estimates about 20 million people are infected with HPV and says at least 50 percent of sexually active men and women acquire genital HPV infection during their lives. There are multiple strains of the virus and only certain ones seem to be linked to cancer.

By age 50, at least 80 percent of women will have acquired genital HPV infection, and about 6.2 million Americans get a new genital HPV infection each year, the CDC reports.

yet another marketing opportunity for listerine?

I can actually play a didgeridoo. I can keep a tone on it for about 20 minutes straight before I feel light headed.


I've never tried inflating a vagina with that technique though...

A buddy of mine and I used to see who could hold the longest tone.

It gets funny because it's so boring we'd just try to accentute our snorts and make the other laugh.

oooh that one already has the cysts!!^^
