freestyle Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 I heard this mentioned in an episode of "Numbers" last night-- That there's a new strain of gonorrhea that's resistant to most available drugs, and is on it's way to becoming a superbug. Essentially untreatable. So--I decided to look it up today, out of curiosity. Antibiotic Resistant Gonorrhea - STD information from CDC Untreatable Multi-Drug-Resistant Gonorrhea Sex Bug on the Way For anyone reading who may be considering cheating---please be fully informed of what you may be exposing your spouse, or partner to. Please--------- think before you act. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
carhill Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Thanks for that information. Given that the bacteria is easily transmitted via multiple methods of contact, penile-vaginal sex is only one area of risk. As DNA testing is increasingly speedy, accurate and cost-effective, one can effectively mitigate the risks, though this can be problematical with a non-monogamous partner. Historically, such arguments about other STD's, along with a choice to have sex within monogamous and exclusive relationships, were inhibitions for myself against engaging in PA's, even if an emotional involvement was evident and strong at the time. If I was unsure of the party's relationship status as being single, I abstained. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
