I fail to understand this comment. This attitude was common when AIDS was initially discovered but education of the public has, for the most part changed the ostracizing behavior they previously experienced. Just because something has always been that way doesn't mean it should stay that way otherwise we wouldn't have our hand held devices and would still be watching only 9 TV channels. The fact that everything is anonymous and you can reach out to others via an iPhone - what about it? How does that address the issue and what fears are just so troublesome? Unfortunatley the "cyberworld" hasn't been very effective in educating people, esecially women about the risks of HPV most of whom have never heard of it but which one out of two will have. It has no symptoms yet can result in six differnt cancers. All that is required for transmission is skin to skn contact and even transmission through kissing is now a concern. 80% of sexually active individuals will have and HPV infection before they reach age 50. What is troublesome is that this individual apparently finds this kind of descrimination just fine.
