You should tell. Here I am telling everybody I had warts and was exposed to herpes, and taking the position of sympathy to those who don't tell. At least I hope we learned that even good people sometimes don't tell, so be careful... whether or not you have the cooties. Pony, you are right, of course. You should tell.

That's including mormons. 3/4 of them don't know they do. That's from the CDC. You should be careful every time you have sex, if you had sex with more than four people it's a good chance you've been exposed. You don't need visible blisters to be contagious, so someone may have it and be contagious and not know. They could be telling the truth and still have herpes. Although it is more contagious if symptoms are present. But if it is the same as physically assaulting another person if you know and don't tell should we all get blood tested for herpes, something very few have done, so we can tell... Or is it better to not know, that way you won't be "lying". There's already enough guilt associated with sex. Actually now that I reflect on it, I did tell my partners that I had warts a while ago, but I can understand not telling. I heard recently that a boyfriend of mineof three years had herpes and never told me, and it annoys me, but I wonder if I caught it, why I never had symptoms. I thought maybe I was already immune... maybe I had a "dormant" case? Or maybe we just never had sex when he happened to be contagious. Well, as soon as I found that out I shared my thoughts with a current boyfriend and he sure didn't take it well. Too close to thinking about me and another man's penis, as well as all the sex-dirt confusions and dirty slut connotations.... too much to ask someone like him to understand. So I regretted telling him. If you don't have it, be careful, even if you do be careful, get regular pelvic exams, and let's lighten up on the blaming and unrealistic expectations.

These things aren't trivial, especially in women. Some can cause infertility and cervical cancer. Not to mention, if you give it to someone else, and they give it to someone. No. It's not honourable not to tell. Not to do so is both lying, and potential assault of another person’s body. These things aren’t trivial, especially in women.

Don't assume anyone will tell. Actually one time I did warn one partner about warts and he took it badly and also brought it up later in a bad situation. He never did catch it and it never reocurred, so I assume after 12 years of it not coming back that it's gone. So why risk telling on something that's probably gone anyway? I won't go along with you on this one. Have you had a blood test for herpes? that's the only way to know you don't have it. I haven't, but I figure since I've had sex with at least twelve partners I probably have it by now. Should we all get tested so we can tell the world how many bugs make our crotches their home?

Me: never. Yet a very large portion of Americans have either herpes or warts. That means lots don't tell. In this culture that is mixed up about sex, it is risky to tell. More risky than getting sued, the person who was sued must have had a lousy lawyer. I knew a woman in college who everybody talked about having herpes. Most of the people who talked about her probably also had herpes. The disease is not as bad as the stigma. That's probably why, when I asked about warts, the CDC said they took no position on telling. Telling could give you a rep. How many of us have been warned in advance that a partner has an STD?
