Q5: Dodging the HSV-2 Bullet
Post Body
This is a question for couples who play with couples/singles that you meet at a club.
I understand HIV is not easily transmitted, HSV-1 is prevalent and HPV has vaccines (And the bacterial STIs are treatable). But the images of HSV-2 symptoms scare me. How do you take someone's word for being STI free and play with them? If condoms are used, and you still end up getting HSV-2 due to mucosal contact, is it worth the pain and ulcers?
Looks like a person might be shedding/transmitting without any symptoms and hence not know that they are infecting others.
It is a mental block I am not able to get past. What is your take?
