In regards to the above article; recently the media attention has focus on the fact that evevry 1 of 4 girls in american has an STD. Having once been in the gay life syle and being an AIDS advocate. I know that young gay men; who are in the age same group as the female. Have the same STD's because the young gay men are doing the same sexual acts as the females. The peopel who are safe guarding the community should understand this and take action; completely across the demographic spectrum.

As a health and sex educator and a large Florida university, I would like clear cut reccomendations so that I can explain them adequately to my students. It seems that a lot of the data is out there to say that there are certain infections that are not being detected, but there is a deficit in terms of clear cut reccomendations. For example, should anyone who engages in oral sex have a chlamydia/gonorrhea throat culture, just as we would reccomend a genital screenings?
