Do cancers that men get more really matter in our society?

It's not nice to fool Mother Nature.

Who da thunk that someone's junk is not an appropriate thing to put in one's mouth? They're at relative opposite ends of the boddy for a reason, I supect.

.......Michael Douglas candidly revealed that his throat cancer was linked to having oral sex,.......

Boys or girls?

And this is why you should not only get your daughters vaccinated against HPV, but also your sons.

And should any anti-vaccination zealots feel compelled to respond, spare me...just leave YOUR children unprotected while we protect ours.

“Oral cancer, a hard to detect, hard to treat disease has overtaken cervical cancer as the most common HPV-related malignancy in the United States”

I’m sorry, but having been in cancer screening for 40 years, I find this ridiculous. Oral cancer is hard to find, but all they have to do is start treating oral cancer like they do cervical cancer, with a yearly exam. (Oh wait, are women still allowed to have a yearly exam, or is it every three years now?) There simply cannot be more oral cancer than cervical cancer, unless they are not adding the countless women with pre-cancerous lesions, that are caught with Pap smears and then treated before the lesion advances to malignancy.

“Free Love” wasn’t so “free” after all!

Sex with multiple males gave women genital warts, which also gave them cervical cancer (once described as a “prostitute’s disease, now affects young 20s and even late teens).

Now, females with non-curable genital warts, give men who have oral sex with the infected women, oral and throat cancer!

What a world!

[Wilderness Conservative]

Some really ignorant comments on this thread. Fyi, oral sex on a woman who is infected with HPV will be passed onto the muncher. It lies dormant for decades and will then morph into oral cancer. Men are more susceptible than women for this to happen. Think about it guys. Think of every woman you were with over your lifetime. Any one of them could have left you with a little surprise.

LiveFreeOrDie2001: "Five years ago, when actor Michael Douglas candidly revealed that his throat cancer was linked to having oral sex, two things happened." [Douglas] also helped publicize the fact that a pervasive, sexually transmitted virus called HPV was unleashing an epidemic of oral cancer among men. (... and then, the second 'thing that happened') was: He made headlines that mortified his family." That is as far as I got before I busted a gut laughing!

Was he suffering MoDo disease?

[xp38]

And yet the Clintons remain alive. Barely yes but still here for now.

[SERKIT]

Guilty?

[RetiredArmy]

He’s got a wife like Catherine Jones and he is into men?????? Good grief!!!

These diseases don’t occur in faithful marriages.

Obviously we need to spend $50 Trillion on research...and impeach Trump.

[SunStar]

Seems like more forced Gardasil propaganda.

Marry a virgin with no active history, no worries. It’s like being debt free.

The linked article does not make clear that most men, including Michael Douglas, got oral cancer by having oral sex with women - NOT oral sex with men.

Like a lot of young men in the liberated 60s and 70s, I discovered early that many young women have difficulty achieving orgasm during intercourse.

However, close to 100% of young women achieve orgasm during oral sex, if it is done correctly.

I have thought frequently about getting the HPV vaccine since those viruses can live inside your body as long as you are alive.

I'm not sure if Medicare covers those shots or not. I do recall the shots were really expensive if you paid out of pocket.
