So, oral sex gives you cancer;

From New Scientist

“People who have had more than five oral-sex partners in their lifetime are 250% more likely to have throat cancer than those who do not have oral sex, a new study suggests. The researchers believe this is because oral sex may transmit human papillomavirus (HPV), the virus implicated in the majority of cervical cancers. The new findings should encourage people to consistently use condoms during oral sex as this could protect against HPV, the team says. Other experts say that the results provide more reason for men to receive the new HPV vaccine.”

In a study of one strain of the virus, those infected were seen to have an incidence of throat cancer 32 times higher than those never having been exposed. In another strain of the virus the incidence was 58 times greater. According to the researchers, “By comparison, either smoking or drinking increases the risk of such cancer by about threefold.”

So let’s all just accept that fact that we’re all going to either get cancer. Be it through sex, your wifi network, the air we breathe or a pot noodle. Seriously, I don’t know which way to look these days, everything seems to be a cause of cancer.
