could you explain how somebody who’s never had sex could get an STD/STI? /genq if they’re sexually transmitted and only sexually transmitted how could that happen without having sex… or is the name a little misleading and you can get them other ways?
Well, herpes (HSV), which can cause oral and genital sores, is well known for being transmitted sexually but it can also be transmitted nonsexually, like through a kiss or sharing lip gloss!
Depending on the type of STI/D, the way you can get it can really vary though.
See, STI/D doesn't mean it can only be transmitted sexually, just that it can.
Often, it's just that that's the more common or most well known way. It's definitely a little misleading and some of that's definitely just fearmongering, unfortunately.
This is an article with a good rundown on some different STI/Ds and how they can be caught and identified, if you're interested!
Hope this helps! Lemme know if you have any other questions. <3

I live in a world where people constantly do things that could kill me and I'm always told "its fine, this infectious disease isn't that serious. Complications are rare."
And then I have to explain to them that I'm the one that gets those complications because my immune system is fucked. And just because it's rare doesn't mean I'm an acceptable loss due to their carelessness. And then i also have to explain complications that arent deadly but instead disabling are often disregarded as " not serious" but at any point in time their body may stop working, and a viral illness could contribute.
Care more about immunocompromised people, please. Wear a mask. Stay home if you feel sick. Stay away from your immunocompromised loved ones if you feel sick, even if its questionable. Get tested. Get your vaccines. I shouldn't have to live scared, and cut myself off from any contact with people, just to keep myself alive. You people should care.
I love a man who knows to romanticize his new start 🥹
