The only thing I don't get is, why doesn't it suggest that men have this done too? Men carry HPV, too, and while they can't get cervical cancer, they can pass it on to someone who can. It just seems like a double standard. But yay for the drug being approved, I know it had opposition from people who care more about other people's sex lives than whether people die of cancer.
Do you have to be a woman to get this vaccine. I'm not worried about cervical cancer but they claim it will reduce your chance of getting genital warts by 90%. They made me watch that horrible slideshow in highschool that showed exactly what HPV looks like and I really don't want to get it.
