Deal breakers-herpes


Recommended Posts

Posted

Today I was reading a Men's Health magazine (Tim mcgraw was on the cover and I was interested lol) and they had this article called dating deal breakers or something like that. Well surprise surprise, there was one subline that said 'her STD rhymes with burpees' and im thinking theyre totally just going to say ditch her, dont deal with that. To my surprise, however, they actually had a nice little blurb on it. Ill quote a little of the article. "Consider this: Genital herpes is more common than you think it, it roughly affects one in six people. But hey she got tested and was honest with you. Its a great indicator of her maturity. " they go on to tell more FACTS about decreasing transmission. "Wrong move: making hasty assumptions about her pastm 'people have this mistaken idea that if you get an STD you must have been promiscuous. In reality most people have the same level of risk."

I just had to share that with all of you because I was just so happy to see something positive about herpes in media for once!! Its great to see some facts instead of jokes and horror stories. Thats all :)

I really wish this notion was more widespread! IF people knew more about the facts...I don't think we'd all be as scared! Good find!
