STD Myths busted

Myth: If you have sex in a pool, you can not get pregnant or contract an STD because the chlorine kills sperm and viruses.

Reality: Are you kidding? If there's that much chlorine in your pool, it would vaporize you completely.

Myth: Straight men and women don't get AIDS.

Reality: People haven't thought like that since Ronald Regan was president and butt rock superstars like Poison topped the charts. (I'm talking about the 80's, by the way.)

Myth: You can't get AIDS from oral sex.

Reality: Yes you can.

Myth: You can't have more than one STD at a time.

Reality: STD's are like the friend who finds out you're having a party and hands out flyers to the whole school. Basically, they'll keep coming until you do something about it.

Myth: There's a cure for HIV, but the government withholds it from poor people.

Reality: Sure, the real cure is kept in area 51 where Elvis guards the stash.
