Guest guest Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 That is a good point. For all the arguing I've done about this vaccine, boys carry the virus too, so why shouldn't boys be required to get the vaccine? Its just another example of the double standards our society has about sexuality in males and females. Its okay for boys to have sex, but not girls. Ridiculous. HPV is a nasty STD for boys as well, even if it doesn't cause cancer in them. Ever seen the famous Mufasa picture? But our society says its okay for men to contract and possibly spread this disease to women. Women, just as with birth control, should be the only ones responsible for prevention. Men don't need to take responsibility for their bodies. Any thing bad that happens to them is surely a womans fault. Give me a break. Sorry for the feminist out burst there, I know some men are very responsible and good for them, especially since they take that responsibility upon themselves, out of honor, in a society that doesn't require them to do it.
