| 1 | EMSK: Safer Sex for PlayboysCompared with people who never used condoms, those who reported using condoms 100% of the time had a 30% lower risk for HSV-2 acquisition http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/705724 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/19597073/ | /r/seduction | 06/09/14 04:49 AM |
| 4 | EMSK: Safer Sex for PlayboysWhat are you trying to say? I already said that HSV carriers are more contagious during visible outbreaks BUT it's more likely that you will be infected by someone that has no visible outbreaks. That is why 70% of people who are infected with HSV contract it from people without visible sores. | /r/seduction | 05/09/14 06:13 PM |
| 7 | EMSK: Safer Sex for PlayboysI didn't know the contamination risk was limited to only 7 months after outbreaks. That's not true. | /r/seduction | 05/09/14 05:49 PM |
| 11 | EMSK: Safer Sex for PlayboysBut AIDS and Herpes-A/B are incurable. Luckily, with protection, the transmission rates are low when used correctly. Condoms only reduce transmission risks of HSV(herpes) by 30%. Since HSV is spread by skin to skin contact and condoms do not cover the entire genital region. If you see open sores, ABORT. Herpes can only be spread during an outbreak and a short window of time after the outbreak. False. Herpes can be transmitted at anytime. Yes HSV carriers are more contagious when sores are presen… | /r/seduction | 05/09/14 05:39 PM |
| 7 | EMSK: Safer Sex for PlayboysOnly during the sluffing period which lasts 4 - 7 months after an outbreak. Source? Because you're wrong. HSV(herpes) can shed virally asymptomatically at anytime, not just around visible outbreaks. At unpredictable times, the virus begins multiplying again. It then goes through a stage called shedding. During those times, the virus can be passed into bodily fluids and infect other people. Unfortunately, a third to half of the times shedding occurs without any symptoms at all.

| 2 | TRP and Herpes. My brief story inside. Thoughts and discussion welcome.Yes if anyone wanted to kiss me I would ask them if they have ever had cold sores or any other STD. I smoke weed and i will wipe off my piece if someone else uses it. I have kissed less people then I have had sex with. Kissing is very intimate more so them sex. I know I'm weird but condoms for sex are a norm but there isn't much protection for your mouth. People will put their mouths on all kinds of people unprotected and unprotected oral is standard. Thats all I can think about when I see unkno… | /r/askTRP | 27/08/14 11:10 AM |
| 1 | TRP and Herpes. My brief story inside. Thoughts and discussion welcome.What are the multitude of differences between HSV1 and HSV2? I can only think of site of preferences as being the difference between the two strains. Do you know what vernacular means? I do but we were talking about discussing HSV among reddit users wanting to know about HSV1 and HSV2. They do not care about the that HSV1 and HSV2 share 50% of their DNA so therefore there are technically differences between the strains. For the average person HSV1 and HSV2 are pretty much identical. They both in… | /r/askTRP | 27/08/14 11:05 AM |
| 5 | TRP and Herpes. My brief story inside. Thoughts and discussion welcome.Yes they should disclose. But I don't kiss random people. I don't think everyone will voluntarily disclose their Oral HSV1 status because they aren't aware of all the facts. Some people assume that everyone is infected. Not so. 54% of Americans and Brits between the ages of 14-49 have HSV1. Also many people aren't aware that cold sores can cause genital herpes infections from oral sex. In fact oral HSV1 is the leading cause of genital herpes infections. If you know you have gotten cold sores, yo… | /r/askTRP | 27/08/14 10:39 AM |

Don't get mad when someone fucks you over and says well you can't take me to court sucker, so fuck you! I mean cool for you RPs to find something to give you some back bone but I don't see why it should make it ok to be sub-human with no moral compass. | /r/askTRP | 27/08/14 07:47 AM |
| 1 | TRP and Herpes. My brief story inside. Thoughts and discussion welcome.You can argue as much as you want but the majority of society agrees that people should disclose STD status. Try to find one major medical source or medical institution that recommends to not disclose your HSV2 status. As I said before It shouldn't be illegal to not disclose for people to do the right ting and tell others of their known HSV2 status. The reason to not disclose is so someone can't refuse sex based on your HSV status. But that's their right. If they think it's too much of a risk th… | /r/askTRP | 27/08/14 07:30 AM |

Thoughts and discussion welcome.But I definitely understand that we all want our health to be respected by our partners and to not be denied relevant information that would give us pause to consider what choices we make. Which is the point of informed consent. By lying be omission and/or not disclosing your STD status you not allowing your potential partner to give informed consent and the ability to weigh the risks of having sex with you.

What are the multitude of differences between HSV1 and HSV2? I can only think of site of preferences as being the difference between the two strains. Wow thanks for taking my comment out of context. I didn't. Actually you did. When I said doctors don't know everything I wasn't referring to them using shedding vs sloughing. It was in response your doctors cl… | /r/askTRP | 27/08/14 06:30 AM |

| 2 | TRP and Herpes. My brief story inside. Thoughts and discussion welcome.Most of these statutes will fall under tort law and are therefore only a basis to recoup losses should a STD be passed between partners. To become a viably prosecutable criminal act, usually a court has to order an injunction against sex acts by an individual and have them served with said order. Subsequent failure to comply with the order constitutes contempt of court and would be prosecuted in that manner. I understand that. Most cases that deal with HSV end in million dollar settlements.

| 3 | TRP and Herpes. My brief story inside. Thoughts and discussion welcome.Most people know there are two strains, a couple. You're making an assumption about people, and you're contesting the use of vernacular to prove what? My first comment was to correct you for correcting OP when he said there are two strains and you said there were several. I think it's important to point out facts about HSV and not continue myths or help muddy the waters. When talking about medical issues one should try to be clear and should try to provide accurate details. Oh ya I forgot doctor… | /r/askTRP | 27/08/14 04:29 AM |

Most people know there are two strains, a couple. It can be killed by soap but there are no studies that show washing and taking as shower will help lower transmission. That means washing your genitals with soap after fucking. A doctor specifically told me this actually. Oh ya I forgot doctors never get things wrong.

| 10 | TRP and Herpes. My brief story inside. Thoughts and discussion welcome.Since 2006, the court has evolved the standard from actual knowledge to also include what is called constructive knowledge, i.e., what people should have known. Therefore, "people suffering from (or having reason to believe they may be infected with) genital herpes (or other STDs) generally have a duty either to avoid sexual contact with uninfected persons or, at least, to warn potential sex partners that they have herpes before sexual contact occurs." This is true even if they are symptom-free … | /r/askTRP | 27/08/14 03:30 AM |

It can be killed by soap but there are no studies that show washing and taking as shower will help lower transmission. I know that sloughing and shedding mean the same thing but in the medical world and in medical literature they never use the term sloughing to describe viral shedding.

Thoughts and discussion welcome.In New York, it is a misdemeanor for any person who knows that he or she is infected with an STD to have sexual intercourse with another. (N.Y. Pub. Health Law § 2307.) Colorado does not have specific criminal laws that target the transmission of other sexually transmitted or venereal diseases, such as herpes or gonorrhea. However, if you knowingly, recklessly, or intentionally infect or try to infect someone else with a venereal disease other than HIV in Colorado, a prosecutor might charge you … | /r/askTRP | 27/08/14 03:03 AM |

I made several comments that were highly visible. I will use you as an example that people should never trust others about their STD status. Thank you for adding to my point that people should request testing resulting. Also why the throwaway?

| 0 | STD Scare: My New Policy on SexI don't believe your doctor told you that you don't have to inform potential partners about your HSV. EVERY medical site and literature on HSV states that you should inform potential partners. Also of it's such a non issue then why the issue of disclosing?! If it's no big deal then you should be able to take 5 seconds to disclose. The reason you don't is because you know it's a big deal to some people. Feeling the need to lie or lie by omission is a great indicator that you should be telling the… | /r/seduction | 06/07/14 10:38 PM |

| 0 | STD Scare: My New Policy on SexYou are selfish and manipulative. You are the reason why I post daily about HSV and the need to REQUIRE testing results before becoming intimate with someone. It really sucks that people are lying about their STD status. I wonder how you were infected? Also you are robbing them of the added protection that disclosure offers. Studies have shown that disclosure of ones HSV status can lower transmission by as much as 30%. | /r/seduction | 06/07/14 10:25 PM |
| 0 | STD Scare: My New Policy on SexONS are still at risk. You are taking the ability to make an informed decision away from potential partners. In some states your actions are illegal. First, they will be given the opportunity to make an informed decision about the future of their own health. Herpes means different things to different people. To some, it may be quite frightening; to others it isn't a big deal. For example, a woman who is trying to become pregnant would see herpes in one way while a woman who won't be having more … | /r/seduction | 06/07/14 10:14 PM |
| 1 | STD Scare: My New Policy on SexIt is rare but it does happen. I'm just pointing out that HSV is not harmless and it should be discussed with potential partners. Also optical herpes is a real concern. We found that the global incidence of HSV keratitis is roughly 1.5 million, including 40,000 new cases of severe monocular visual impairment or blindness each year. | /r/seduction | 06/07/14 09:49 PM |

Also it talks about maintaining a perfect healthy lifestyle where you MUST sleep in total darkness and keep to a strict diet. I wonder how many people are really going to adhere to any of it. I agree that a healthy immune system is helpful in stopping reoccurring outbreaks but it won't stop them 100%. The immune system is VERY sensitive and can be put out of whack for several different reasons that are uncontrollable suc… | /r/seduction | 06/07/14 02:11 AM |
| 2 | STD Scare: My New Policy on SexHSV is an STD because it is transmitted via sexual contact and it targets the genitals. My comment was made because people always claim that HSV is a made up stigma m/disease, which it's not. What big pharm did was call attention to a life long disease that they had a treatment for. This treatment was not a cure so of course they took advantage of marketing it since it's life long investment for HSV patients. They didn't make up that it's an STD, the medical field classified it as such because i… | /r/seduction | 05/07/14 11:27 PM |

| 1 | STD Scare: My New Policy on SexI think it is good to check down below before getting freaky for any signs of infection (both herpes and other STD), but don't freak out about it. You do realize that most STIs are asymptomatic, right? That's why they are called infections and not diseases. HSV(herpes) sheds the virus asymptomatically. In fact up to 70% of HSV transmission occurs when there is no sign of infection or sores. | /r/seduction | 05/07/14 10:39 PM |
| 1 | STD Scare: My New Policy on SexI have the same policy and I have slept with 30+ partners. It's not hard to get tested or ask to be tested for HSV. If your doctor gives you a problem you can let them know that 1) not everybody has HSV, 54% of Americans ages 14-49 have HSV1 and 16% has HSV2. 2) knowing your HSV Status can lower transmission rates if you are turn out positive 3) the CDC says if you have had multiple partners and want a full STD screen you should be tested for HSV | /r/seduction | 05/07/14 10:35 PM |
| 1 | STD Scare: My New Policy on SexThe only reason HSV(herpes) wasn't considered a STD before is because we had no idea that it caused so many different infections orally, optical, genitally and complications during child birth. Before we could not test for it accurately. Bed bugs, lice and scabies are all things humans use to think we had to live with, now we can rid ourselves of these bugs and we do. Same thing with HSV.

Your mother would have had to be infected with herpes the last trimester of her pregnancy for this to happen. Sounds like a gross scenario. I'm not totally sure that it in fact does occur within the womb since HSV is ether present in the skin or in the nerves. I would love to see a study done on this topic for more proof. Most of the literature doesn't actually state that the infection happens "in the womb" but more likely it happens as the … | /r/TheRedPill | 18/06/14 06:44 AM |

| 2 | Girlfriend called me and told me the doctor told her she has Herpes...No. Overall, 54% of persons aged 14 to 49 had HSV-1 infection, and 16% had HSV-2 infection. Prevalence of HSV-1 infection declined steadily from 60% when first measured between 1979 and1980 | /r/TheRedPill | 13/06/14 09:01 PM |
| 5 | Girlfriend called me and told me the doctor told her she has Herpes...Anyways, herpes. It's very prevalent, especially among the young, sexually active population. Actually, no, HSV is more common among people over the age of 50 compared to people ages 14-49. HSV infections rates have been steadily dropping among teenagers. | /r/TheRedPill | 13/06/14 08:54 PM |
| 1 | Girlfriend called me and told me the doctor told her she has Herpes...Not all data about HSV delayed outbreaks is collected from couples. There are plenty of cases of people having no idea they are infected and all of a sudden having an outbreak for no reason. Even when they haven't been sexual for months or years. | /r/TheRedPill | 13/06/14 08:50 PM |
| 2 | Girlfriend called me and told me the doctor told her she has Herpes...There's nothing to buy. Some people have poor immune systems and have outbreaks soon after infection and some people don't have outbreaks until their immune system is compromised in some way. This is not a theory. It is how HSV works. That is why it is called herpes, from the Greek word herpein, to creep, referring to the virus ability to go latent and reactivate at anytime. | /r/TheRedPill | 13/06/14 08:44 PM |
| 11 | Girlfriend called me and told me the doctor told her she has Herpes...Facts: Dating for a month. You don't have herpes. She has a herpes outbreak for the first time. Open your eyes. She cheated on you. No. HSV can infect and become latent without causing a visible outbreak. Up to 80% of HSV carriers are asymptomatic viral carriers for HSV and can go years before having a visible outbreak. Just because she recently had her first outbreak does not mean that she was recently infected. Not even a little bit. | /r/TheRedPill | 13/06/14 06:34 AM |
| 6 | Girlfriend called me and told me the doctor told her she has Herpes...No. An estimated 80% of HSV carriers don't have visible outbreaks. Many people go months or years before having their first visible outbreak. That is way it is called herpes, from the Greek word, herpein, to creep. Because the virus infects and becomes latent. Then it creeps up and causes outbreaks. | /r/TheRedPill | 13/06/14 06:31 AM |
| 2 | Girlfriend called me and told me the doctor told her she has Herpes...She just developed these symptoms while monogamous with me... Almost makes me think that she cheated on me.....? Incorrect to assume. HSV becomes latent after infection. MANY people, an estimated 80% of HSV carriers don't have visible outbreaks. People can go years before they have their diets outbreak. | /r/TheRedPill | 13/06/14 06:26 AM |
| 3 | Girlfriend called me and told me the doctor told her she has Herpes...If you are infected it could take up to 2 weeks+ to test positive. If someone's used the IgG blood test for HSV(herpes) then they would have to wait 12 weeks, at the very least, for most accurate testing. The IgM blood test looks for IgM antibodies that die soon after infection and the test can confuse VZV with HSV. The IgG blood test is sensitive enough to be specific to differentiate between HSV1 and HSV2, it does NOT confuse ANY other virus with HSV and is 97% accurate if done in the correct … | /r/TheRedPill | 13/06/14 06:23 AM |

| 3 | Girlfriend called me and told me the doctor told her she has Herpes...Apparently IgM results indicate recent exposure and I tested negative for recent exposure. This means that you were not recently infected but this does not mean that you are not a carrier for HSV. Get an IgG blood test to make sure. IgG antibodies can take 3-12 months to reach levels that can be detected accurately. Also people can go YEARS before having their first visible outbreak. This means 1) just because she just had her first outbreak doesn't mean that she was recently infected 2) you cou… | /r/TheRedPill | 13/06/14 06:16 AM |
