STD's

[tmkf]

i have been thinking and i think there should be more info about STD'S ie: how can you catch them, are they passed on through genes, what can they do ect...:) i think it could help everyone!

-Sexual Contact (i.e., unprotected sex, bodily fluids, careless banging, not knowing that you/your partner has an STD/hasn't been tested)
-Contact with someone else's bodily fluids by accident
-Some STD's, after infecting the person, can possibly be transferred to a developing infant that is still in the womb. (For pregnant women)
-I am not entirely sure about STD diseases having effect on genes, you'd have to look that one up.
