Not everything you ever wanted to know about sex and your mouth...

...but what you should know about hepatitis and other bugs

Hepatitis A is spread through "fecal matter" (shit and butt juice). A person who touches an infected person's ass can pass it to anyone who comes in contact with the body part that touched the ass (like fingers, fists and dicks). Obviously it can also be spread by rimming an infected guy. It can also be spread through food or water. You can even get it from licking some dude's nuts if he was messy at wiping the last time he took a dump.

Symptoms of hepatitis include loss of appetite, fatigue, flu-like feeling, orange piss, white stool. Some people have no symptoms. It's a serious virus and if you think you've got it, you need to see a doctor. Most people get over it. Some carry the virus for life and can continue to give it to others. You can get vaccinated. You should! See below.

Hepatitis B on the other hand is found in most body fluids of infected persons including saliva, cum, blood and possibly piss. Principally, Hep B is spread through intimate contact with infected people or exposure to body fluids of these people. It is similar to HIV in the way it spreads.

There are vaccines for both Hep A & B! Go to your doctor or call City Clinic at 415-487-5500 for more information. If you are sexually active, get both of these vaccines!

Parasites are also passed through butt juice and shit. They typically cause symptoms like diarrhea, nausea, gas, cramping or change in stool. It can be like having the stomach flu. Some people have symptoms that are so slight they don't realize they have 'em.

The vast majority of parasites can be gotten rid of. Some take harsh medicine to do the trick. One, cryptosporidium, is real stubborn. There's no drug for it, but guys with unimpaired immune systems typically recover on their own and appear to develop some immunity to subsequent infections.

Reduce your risks by being informed and making informed choices. Think about these bugs and come up with your own plan to reduce your risks. Negotiate risks with your partner before sex. Be aware of the possibilities of how fecal matter (shit and butt juice) can end up in your mouth. Keep in mind that some of these bugs can be passed along from any body part that touches the bug. Theoretically, that means that if you kiss someone who had his tongue up an ass or even lick somebody's tit that was last twisted by a finger up a butt, you can become infected.


remember, there are vaccinations for Hepatitis and they take a lot less time to get than Hep takes to get rid of!
