My girlfriend told me today that she doesnt want me to finger her any more, because she is afraid of getting HPV virus. I really dont know anything about it, but we both know that we are both clean.. so I am actually very offended that the reason she doesnt want to do stuff with me is becuase shes afraid im going to give her an STDCould someone offer me some insight? I am really upset right now.. and I really dont know how to deal with this.

My girlfriend is afraid of HPV

well it could be that both of you dont know much about it, you could go read some things together and get checked out, actually i think i may have heard something of a vaccination? but im not quite sure so that would be worth checking out

You don't just get the virus (which is what HPV is) from nowhere. I'm not sure where you'd get one of the strains (there are several) of HPV that infects genitals, unless you fingered an infected girl or gave a handjob to an infected guy just before you fingered your girlfriend. Anyway, I don't see why she'd think her fingers would be any cleaner than yours, if she does think that.Of course, it wouldn't hurt to wash your hands thoroughly before touching someone's genitals.The HPV vaccine just came out, and it appears to be 100% effective so far. Your girlfriend should look into it; then she'll have one less thing to worry about.

In reply to: The HPV vaccine just came out ok thank you i thought i had seen something of that here

I think it takes 3 doses at a cost of about $130 each--pricey, but it sure beats cervical cancer.
