Yet another reason to push for the HPV vaccine, lads and ladies.

I'm not particularly choked by this news, but I recommend putting a gag order on it.

get your tonsils removed, heal up, then pucker up buttercup.

False positive!!! Because if the penis was the source of cancer, then a lot of Farkers would have hand cancer.

 
KwameKilstrawberry 2009-04-05 03:24:57 PM  
Is that article really implying people didn't blow each other 20-30 years ago?

Like Gen X discovered oral sex?

"If they have a lump in their throat, especially if it's on one side and it doesn't go away with antibiotics, they should see a doctor," Dalianis says.

Well, of course they should. Particularly if it's the doctor's lump.

Hmm, around 2 cases per 100,000 people, EVERYBODY PANIC!

Should have a sad tag. My ex hated giving oral and used this excuse. The worse thing we as a society ever did was allow women the right to read.

Just take the Gardisal.

Gardisal stops only like 4 of the 100+ kinds of HPV.

Preventative infant tonsillectomies FTW.

And appendectomies.

And circumcision.

take the bait...

I've got a great idea on how to smack the cancer off of those tonsils

Lucky mine doesn't have hers.

And possibly making it more effective than just the few types it protects against.

Yep, you can get STDs in non-naughty parts. Wait til they greenlight the gonorrhea-in-the-eye thread.

 
Acid_Casualty 2009-04-05 03:30:57 PM  
I seem to remember another one of these articles about cunnilingus having a similar side-effect.

/analingus is now your safest bet

 
Snoogit 2009-04-05 03:31:28 PM  
Articles like this are why we need a BS tag.

 
Pertifly 2009-04-05 03:31:57 PM  
This was the worst-written article I've ever seen. "Maybe it's this." "Maybe it's that." Do you have to have HPV first? I still don't know.

You are quick, one thing though...a very small amount of HPV types are known to cause cancer.

/Also, I call shenanigans

The only known treatment is doses of "Vitamin F" administered orally...

 
morgantx [TotalFark] 2009-04-05 03:36:12 PM  
So since I smoke AND suck d*ck, does that mean I'm twice as likely to get throat cancer? (And I still have my tonsils, BTW.) Oh, well... We all die someday--I may as well enjoy myself until I do!

 
Vern the Worm 2009-04-05 03:36:15 PM  
If Planned Parenthood dosen't beat me to it (which would give them something else to remove) I'm setting up a Tonsil Clnic and naming it after the late Linda Lovelace:

The Linda Lovelace Memorial Tonsil Clinic.

 
farkeruk 2009-04-05 03:37:04 PM  
KwameKilstrawberry: Is that article really implying people didn't blow each other 20-30 years ago?

Less so. Probably AIDS changed things.

20-25 years ago, the order of coolness was: tits out, fingering, farking, BJ. Not sure quite how things are today, but I know a lot of guys who didn't get BJs off their girlfriends at the time, but did get to fark them. To get a BJ meant you'd got a very open-minded girl.

 
yellow_ducki 2009-04-05 03:37:10 PM  
I'm willing to risk tonsil cancer if it means a man will reciprocate..

/Got her last shot of Gardasil last year
//Hope it helps

 
DrForrester 2009-04-05 03:37:48 PM  
Tonsil cancer? Seriously? This sounds about as deadly as... Appendix cancer.

 
Uchiha_Cycliste [TotalFark] 2009-04-05 03:37:49 PM  
All females should have their tonsils removed when their wisdom teeth are removed. BAM! done.

 
Sid_6.7 [TotalFark] 2009-04-05 03:38:17 PM  
I don't see any mention in the article about the removal of tonsils.

Didn't we take them out of people compulsively before 20-30 years ago?

Eh, I don't much like receiving, personally. I don't want reciprocation. I just enjoy giving head, usually more than having sex.

 
thereadlines [TotalFark] 2009-04-05 03:39:23 PM  
Just another example of G-d punishing the wicked. If you people would just follow the rules of social conduct, as outlined in the Bible, you wouldn't suffer the cancers and diseases that are manifestations of His Wrath.

At this point those few are all we've proven to be able to, however, they are all closely related so its not a big stretch to entertain the possibility that they COULD begin to cause cancer, or have been but we haven't proven it yet.

Let's just hope no one tells Jenny McCarthy.

abb3w: Yet another reason to push for the HPV vaccine, lads and ladies.

Word on the street is that once you've started having sex it's too late to get vaccinated. I hope that's wrong but it's what i hear.
