19. A quote that struck me: “One thing that helped me to deal with having an STI was to realize that I was part of a mighty big club: 40 million strong. Another thing that helped was telling my dad, a doctor in my hometown of Fargo, ND. The first thing he said was “Hey, its not going to be a big deal. Herpes is one of the least serious medical conditions you are going to have.” he was right.” The reason this quote struck me is after you face the fact that you have herpes and how you are going to deal with it, thinking positive is one of the best things you can do for yourself.
20. Discussion Questions: Protection for women against STIs and STDs are very important considering the fact we are more likely to get infected than men. Do you believe that there is enough protection out there for women? Do you believe that finding more products that protect women from STIs should be a high priority?
