Oral and Anal Sex increasing among teens

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - During the past decade, there has been a significant increase in the proportion of teenagers and young adults engaging in oral sex and, less commonly, having anal intercourse, according to data from STD clinics in Baltimore, Maryland.

The finding is not all that surprising, Dr. Emily Erbelding from Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center in Baltimore told Reuters Health.

She explained that "a few national surveys conducted recently have suggested that oral sex may be a behavior that teenagers are increasingly participating in. For example, in the 2002 National Survey of Family Growth, most teenagers reported having oral sex and many had not had intercourse."

She presented the current study findings Tuesday in Jacksonville, Florida at the 2006 National STD Prevention Conference sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

In examining the 1994 medical records of 2,598 12- to 25-year olds, and the 2004 medical records of 6,438 subjects of the same age, attending STD clinics in Baltimore, Erbelding and colleagues found that over the 10-year period the prevalence of self-reported oral sex in the previous 90 days doubled among males (from 16 percent to 32 percent) and more than doubled among females (from 14 percent to 38 percent).

There was also an increase in rectal sex among young women, "but it was a lot less common than oral sex," Erbelding said. Among young women, the prevalence of self-reported anal sex over the period rose from 3 percent to 5.5 percent.

There may be a general feeling out there that oral sex is safer than intercourse, Erbelding said, and it probably is for some diseases.

However, Erbelding emphasized that oral and anal sex may result in the transmission of STDs that will not be detected in urine tests. "A urine test is not going to pick up gonorrhea or Chlamydia that might have been acquired through rectal or oral sex, with gonorrhea being the more significant infection for oral sex."

Therefore, "clinicians need to routinely ask their adolescent and young adult patients about the full range of sexual behaviors and educate young people in general about what the relative risks are for different types of STDs for various sexual behaviors," Erbelding said

;D

Though with today's education system, there's probably people who think you can still get pregnant in that fashion.

[Guest HouseJunkie]

Imagine that, you found yourself a virgin who you thought has never been touched by the hands of men but then you found that she has blown every guy east of the Mississippi.

I really feel sorry for suckers getting married. With an immoral society like the one in which we live. How the heck could anyone fool themselves into thinking their woman is virtuous. It goes against every statistic and everything we see happening in front of us. Abortions, Blow Jobs, Anal Sex, escorts... imagine someone saying that your wife really sucks good cock or asking if her ass is still tight... LOL. Marriage is an old concept that is not really applicable to todays immoral western society. It used to be that some men were womanizers and were immoral... now women or manizers/womanizers and just as immoral and we've just got one big fucked up society.

I'm not applying a moral standard to it. If a girl or a guy wants to get down and dirty, then go for it.

Not surprising, yet sad at the same time. I guess they really are not teaching these kids safe sex in school. I know I learned jack in school. Whatever I learned about safe sex was from other sources and then in college a bit more. I mean I learned about HPV a few years back from a Shape magazine! The best was my third year in college Dr. Ryan for International Business he showed us this STD video up on the huge prjection screen. He had students who were involved in this and had all those pictures of the the actual STD's and that was more impacting on the class than anything. My motto to all my friends is "condoms only cover the penis, what about the other unprotected areas?"

[Guest trancepriest]

Amen brother.... even piss drunk I'm not leaving the pussy. ;D If a girl wants to get that freaky... she can join the local circus. Because to me... once a man starts fucking ass... he's a gay motherfucker... because ass is ass. Sodomy doesn't require a particular gender.

LOL... or you could read it as.. placed in jail Adam Singer would be fucking ass.

[Guest Adam Singer]

you guys are both repressed and missing out, imo...

and doing it with a girl hardly makes you gay, what is this, 1950?

Now theoretically lets say that there exist a guy that never wants to have vaginal sex. All he dreams of is going around sodomizing women. He completely rejects pussy. If a girl wants to have regular sex he turns her down. What would your opinion be of such a guy? I'm presuming that your not like that... but if you are... you can speak from your personal experiences.

By that token, if a girl gives you a blowjob it's gay, since gays give blowjobs too.

Jeeez.

Gay= Man in Man

not: Man in girl's ass
