The title of this post comes from a Lil Wayne song from one of his 10 million mixtapes over the last year or so. Before Lil Weezie goes out and licky-lickies again, he might want to take the condom that this guy appears to be using on him and put it on his tongue. Yes people, the time has come for Trojan to start making prophylactics for the tongue.
I saw this story on the news last night and it didn't really shock me all that much. It turns out that guys can develop oral cancer if they perform oral sex on a girl with HPV. Most people that watch TV after 9pm (or took a high school health class) on a regular basis know that women with HPV can develop cervical cancer. If you don't know, you do now. And if you watch television after 9pm you probably also know that there's a big push to get young girls the HPV vaccine Gardasil (whose side effects include "side effects include pain, swelling, itching, and redness at the injection site, fever, nausea, dizziness, vomiting, and fainting").
Oddly enough, some parents were outraged at the thought of vaccinating their teenage daughters against HPV. Because as we all know, teen girls don't have sex. I understand that some parents don't want to face the reality that their child is having sex or may have sex at some point before they turn "of age" (whatever-the-fock-that-means), but seriously. This is like not vaccinating your child against hepatitis, mumps, or measles. It just makes too much sense for you NOT to do it.
What I enjoy about the WJZ.com article on this topic is that one of the two men mentioned in the article that developed oral cancer (presumably from HPV) was described as taking "part in the sexual revolution of the 60s and 70s". LMAO! If there was a sexual revolution back then, 30 years from now what are they going to call the "revolution" going on now with all these people experimenting with or diving into (no pun intended) homosexuality? Sexual experimentation and openness is probably more accepted and prominent now than it was back then (I would guess) even with HIV being as big a problem as it is. So I can only imagine what types of connections researchers will make between the sexual revolution of today and the diseases of tomorrow.
This post is more of a public service announcement than anything else. Fellas strap up...Ya tongue!
