Q: Can I Get Herpes I On My Privates?
asked by: djydjy on June 6th, 2006

If my partner has cold sores around his mouth that is herpes i, and we have oral sex will I catch herpes I or ii? Can you have herpes I near the vaginal area, or once it is around the vagina is it automatically herpes ii? I'm confused.

Answer
-----------------------------

i can see why you are confused. Herpes and sexually transmitted diseases are confusing subjects. So, let's try to clear it up:

you can get herpes I (mostly associated with being around the mouth) in the vaginal or penile area. So, yes if your partner has herpes I in the facial area and he performs oral sex on you, you can get herpes I in your vaginal area.


This is the same for herpes ii. If your partner has herpes ii in the vaginal or penile area and you perform oral sex on him/her, you can get herpes ii on your facial area.


Essentially, herpes I or ii can live and cause symptoms in either place, mouth and face; and/or genitals.


It's all pretty confusing, however, that is why you need to practice safer sex even with oral sex. Think about any type of sex first and discuss it with your partner. Discuss past partners and stds and go to a teen health center to get checked out. Then use a condom for intercourse or oral sex performed on a male and use a dental damn for oral sex performed on a female.

Why would you have sex with someone who has herpes if you did not want to get it?

Chances are if you have sex with someone with herpes you are eventually going to get it. Even if they do not have a breakout you can get it.

O Noo
Herpes is a scary virus because a- is uncurable and
b- herpes if it is on the mouth and you perform oral sex on someone it will turn into genital herpes...

Vice versa with if you have herpes on your genitals and someone performs oral on you it will turn into oral herpes... It goes both ways. So just because someone has a sore on there mouth dosent mean they cant transfer it to your privates or backside... You need to be really carefull because not everyone has an outbreak but can still carry the virus

she didn't have sex with him, she said oral sex.

I have no idea about herpes so I don't have an answer for this one.

I just found this on postsecret and it thought it was ironic and funny.

So just incase the poster does have herpes, they can let this be a sign of hope for them. :p

Ive seen loads of pics of people with genital warts its fookin grose...If I were you...Djydjy ...Id keep his cold sore mouth away from you and your vagina!! I wouldnt ever kiss him either! Once you have herpies or cold sores they keep coming back, its a virus. And it aint pretty...I'd never want to get them *touch wood* tell him to buy cold sore cream and keep the hell away from you, give him a week or so for it to go, and he would be all good to go near you and your vagina.

But what if this was the most amazing guy in the world, in all ways husband material, except for his herpes. What then ladies, huh!? Say you got to know him first before you found out he had herpes. What then ladies?

hmmm,i would have to say if he was hubby material and I ended up marrying him,i would go for it.I mean,your gonna spend the rest of your life with him so. . . I guess you'll just have to try to avoid getting them and if you do its not like you'll be spreading thm to someone else.If I had herpes and I found someone who loved me I would certainly want them to want to be with me no matter what,thats what marriage is about : )

Yeah, and if he was the most perfect guy you could be with forever if you got herpes it wouldn't be so bad, since you would just be with him forever and you'ld have it together. Aw how romantic.

Tanya what if you married him and got the herpes and gave birth to five of his children and then 10 years into the marriage before you have even hit prime middle age he up and leavs you for his secratary named bambi because bambi is a ho and already has herpes so its no sweat off her back and on top of that shes not even 25! Hopping all over your man with those perky breasts and bleach blond hair and then your man left you in the dirt with herpe lip and the kids and no man would want a wife that gets blisters on her vag! Oh the horror the horror!!!!!!.....


I have no idea where that came from but I had to say it... Yay!
