It doesn't actually work that way in educated populations.  In educated populations, the more sex partners people have the less lilkely they are to have STDs. The mechanism behind that isn't clear, but it's probably because they are more careful and take more care of their health. They use condoms more consistently and get tested more frequently.  People who have fewer partners have more STDS.  Again, the mechanism isn't clear but it's probably because they feel "safe" and assume their partner is "safe" and so they don't use condoms and don't get screened as much as they should.

More people should be responsible sluts.  It's better for the health of the community. [/quote]

I have heard something like that before but it is not really true. It is true among gay men, and educated older urban folks, but NOT true among teens of any social background. AND, there are TONS of uneducated people around the DC area. The big bias is that in this generation, the people with few partners tend tone rural and poorly educated, but I have a feeling that will change. HPV has been on the rise in all populations. Even elderly people. [/quote]

Um... no. HPV infection rate is down 40% since Gardasil came out. Also... teens, by demographic, are not educated. In fact, all you say is that it isn't true and then go on to affirm all the points.

STDs are vastly overstated in the media and they are almost non-existent in several populations. Why? because people take care and get medical treatment when they need it. The problem is that certain people don't want sex to be without consequences and exaggerate the risk.[/quote]
