Dear Anonymous,
It is unfortunate that this is all you took away from the article. The education of women when toileting to wipe front to back does more to transfer the virus as can engaging in vaginal sex after which (if a woman is lying on her back) secretions tend to pool in the anal area. It is this type of nararowmindedness which perpetuates incorrect information and only diverts attention away from what can be done to prevent transmission of HPV to the anal area.
While anal intercourse is obviously a means of transmission, it is only one of them and to focus exclusively on this is simply a disservice.
