Next time you wanna get out of doing it, just say that it causes cancer. You wouldn't be wrong.

There are more than 80 strains of it and they are very tissue specific. There are 3 I believe that cause the cancers. They are the ones now tested for in a pap smear. That most people with oral cancer have the virus doesn't suprise me because most people have it anyways. New medical research indicates people typically flush a strain from their bodies within 3-5 years. Incidentally, condoms offer minimal protection as it is a skin-to-skin transmitting virus unless you are wearing a full body condom. :) Also, the virus rarely manifests visibly on either sex, but more women than men will ever show physical symptoms.
