More than 42 percent of Americans between the ages of 18 and 59 are infected with genital human papillomavirus [HPV], according to the first survey to look at the prevalence of the virus in the adult population.

The report [pdf], published on Thursday by the National Center for Health Statistics, found that certain high-risk strains of the virus infected 25.1 percent of men and 20.4 percent of women. These strains account for approximately 31,000 cases of cancer each year, other studies have shown.

Two vaccines are effective in preventing sexually transmitted HPV infection, and researchers said the new data lend urgency to the drive to have adolescents vaccinated.

    ...talk?

    You might be too /naive/ to do business with a sex professional.

    Hookers are also thugs. If you're the basement type then chances are that the hookers you're buying perceive you as harmless, and would much rather you just yank the pannies down and leave the cash on the nightstand for them to take after you prematurely ejaculate rather than have to endure your feeble attempts at conversation.

    Don't kiss hookers, either. The hookers who don't allow it are usually higher-class ($400+/hr graduate students and whatnot) USC or UCLA students who are only need to pay their tuition and are saving kissie-kissies from bad emotional attachments. The ones who do let those kiss have usually already sucked 10 dicks that night, and without brushing their teeth.

      Thanks for that info. Many of us didn't know this and think hookers are a disadvantaged group who are shy and insecure and need to be hugged and spoken to nicely.

      Keep it to the point and take ejaculation-control medication before beginning. Wear gloves and socks, and of course a sock over the important bits. Then wash thoroughly after you are done. Try to ejaculate on cue. Hookers try and get as many clients as possible in one night... you know... to pay their Jewish pimp.
