1 in 4 U.S. Adults has Herpes Simplex 2 genitally.
Only 8% of them KNOW they have it.
This is why it is spread so easily. You can get it from someone who has never had symptoms.
Having sex with someone who knows that they have it, who is on suppressive therapy (Valtrex et.al.) and knows their own body when experiencing symptoms, is safer that having sex with someone who 'thinks' they don't have it.
Don't be a fool - Wrap your tool.
- And even that doesn't protect you 100%
although alot of people have it and belive its totally acceptable to not tell anyone that is not the case it is very dangerous and youre stuck with it for life (simplex 2) simplex 2 also doesnt just go away with valtrex it just puts off outbreaks though you can still spread it. if a woman gets it on their genitals they can no longer give birth to children they must have c sections because if the baby goes through the birth canal the virus spreads onto their skin and they are born with it.
11:16 There's two different strains, Simplex 1 and Simplex 2. Simplex one is the little cold sore on your mouth that can be spread to be a little cold sore on your junk. Simplex 2 is the sores on you genital and upper thigh area that can be small and painless or large, open and pussing. There's a reason why people try to avoid getting Simplex 2. Please wear condoms, even if it won't kill you, you don't want it.
I have herpes. And the people who are bitching about the "smart people," are morons. You can get HSV1 and HSV2 in either place. You can also get it in your eyes, on your fingers, and on your forearms. And I do believe we SHOULD wear stickers. Or jewbands. It would make it so much easier to find chicks with herpes, so they cant freak the fuck out over it. Good game.
10:33 he is talking about HSV 2, the STD bad herpes. not HSV 1, the innocent I got a little cold sore its not a big deal herpes.
and yeah herpes is nasty keep it away, stop using these sick ways to justify your diseased snatch
9:58- couldn't agree more, I've had herpes for 3 years and really my love life has only improved because you know who is really going to care about you and isn't just shallow about liking you, I've never been turned down by anyone after telling them and it's because I have that positive personality about it, because it's not as big of a deal as everyone keeps saying
Seriously, people who get all on their high horse about being better people if they DON'T have herpes are such idiots. You can just as easily get it from the first person you sleep with. You don't have to be a slut. Karma is going to bite you all in the ass, bitches.
11:40 have you heard of these inventions called "condoms" and yeah I know they don't work 100% of the time but they still work most of the time. you sound bitter because you probably got herpes from some fat hooker.
Fucktard at 10:28, if you have had sex with more than 10 people in your life, you have been exposed to Herpes. You may already have it asswipe, yet you act like a dick and spout off like this. I know that the truth hurts and hopefully someday you will face reality.
both forms of herpes are the same freaking thing! just like you say you get "just as little cold sore on your mouth" its just a little cold sore down there. its not like you die from it or anything... its a virus... just like chicken pox. (did you know chicken pox is a form of herpes too????)
I had a friend who bitched to me and my girlfriend(at the time - now my wife) about how she had contracted herpes from this no-good bastard, blah blah blah... went on for like an hour. Eventually found out she was talking about HSV1. She'd gotten a fricken cold sore. Puh-lease! Like it's a HUGE deal!
people think its ok not to inform their partners because its a livable disease, but if we were talking about AIDS it would be a whole different story! the point is it is a sexually transmitted disease if you know you have it it is your responsibility to protect your partner, because contracting it will impact their livelihood
11:16 not the same thing... HSV2 hits you much worse... outbreaks are real bad... and herpes can help spread other infections such as HIV/Hepatitis... so it's more serious than you think
3: 30
you really can get tested for herpes.
i know this because i had a blood test and a swab taken, specifically for herpes.
and guess what, no herpes.
Simplex 1 is spread from a mouth to genitalia a condom doesn't protect you from it and you have to hope the person doing the oral is honest about having it. Condoms only protect you from 2 unless the partner already has 1 on their junk. The people with it should be honest about having it to prevent the spread condom or not but it's not fair for them to have to wear a sign just like it's not fair for them to put you at risk.
People with incurable STDs should have to wear a medical bracelet. you know, like people with REALLY bad diabetes and things like that? but, like, a permanent one. no clasps allowed.
10:37 You can have HSV 2 or HSV 1 both genitally, It won't be different if you tell your partner "oh, I have genital herpes, but it's okay! It's only hsv 1, the innocent got a little cold sore on my penis for you", it's still the same shit.
I hate all these idiots running around saying "you know like 90% of people have some form of herpes." Stop trying to show off and pretend you're smart. We all know a cold sore is technically herpes. We're not talking about cold sores here. Christ.
Actually no, the only way to tell if someone has herpes is to take a swab of an actual lesion. There is no blood test that will tell you you have herpes. The virus lives in the spinal fluid. I guess maybe a spinal tap would tell.
