MatchSTD.com for singles with sexual diseases all the world over.

You will be matched only with others who have the same STD, so you shouldn't ever have to worry about the rejection and heartbreak of dating any longer!

Never will you be asked for your e-mail, name, or other sensitive information while on matchstd.com. And, did we mention we're ad-supported (no pop-ups), so you never pay us a penny?
Judging by some of the discussions in recent threads I'd say that some of you should check this site out.

Could the internet get any more useful? I think not.

I thought HIV had different strains. Hooking up with someone with a different strain from your own could probably give you even more HIV.

That's what I thought. "Collect all the strains of hepatitis and win a prize!"

No thinking involved. It's a proven fact.

HIV adapts to the individual. No two strains are identical. Which is probably not helping in the efforts to find a cure.

But there are 2 subclasses, HIV1 and HIV2, HIV2 being the prevalent strain in Africa.

Genital warts is serious ****. May not harm men, but in women it can lead to cervical cancer. I once contracted GW and after treatment went back to 3 different doctors to be absolutely positive it was gone.

The treatment itself...well, think mad doctor w/ some sort of electric zapping gizmo. I was told later that there's other ways, but I guess that doc was from the dark ages. Ouchie.

Too bad there is no way to know if they are truly gone or not

HPV doesn't mean genital warts any more than lice necessarily means crabs. I guess the statistic was actually for genital HPV, though.

Often someone has HPV and doesn't even know it, as if may not show any signs.

You know something I've wondered for a while. OK we're often told as if condoms prevent all STDs. But come on, there's other skin making contact. Can't some things be passed on by just skin touching?

This site is the best way to meet chicks. Just glue some raisins on your penis you can fake it. Great way to get some quick tail.

My sig is 1 pixel too big.

Speaking of HIV, I was reading up about it the other night and I found this, which basically claims the per-incident risk of HIV contraction for receptive anal intercourse with a partner known to be HIV+ is about 8 in 1000.

Doesn't that seem a bit low to you? If it's any old random person statistically you could divide those figures by the approximate HIV infection rates and it would be even lower, or if you were the active partner it's lower again.

Does anyone know of any studies to the contrary?

I guess 0.8% (or less) is pretty small per incident, but some people (especially gay men) have A LOT of sex and I could see how you'd eventually catch it.
