I think this is a TOTAL, total no-brainer, since men basically carry and spread HPV around and aren’t regularly tested for it like women are with PAPs, but what are your thoughts?

Hey, I’m all for safe sex. But under no circumstance should any man or women be forced to accept a vaccine designed for sexually active individuals. Thank God I’m married.

I think it would be a good idea to include it in the routine vaccinations that school-aged kids usually get. I don’t think it should be mandatory necessarily, but I also can’t think of a very good reason to not get it.

As long as I’m not expected to get it I don’t care. Unless there is a way to contract HPV that isn’t known I don’t have it so I’m not spending money on the vaccine. Having said that it sounds like a good idea on paper for it simply to be approved so men can take it if they want or feel like they should. I don’t think it should be required for anyone.

Every little bit helps because even though some people might feel safe from being married, it doesn’t protect them against partners who cheat on them or lied to them about their sexual history.

The word “caution” comes to mind. Well over a dozen young women died from that vaccine and countless others experienced bad reactions to it.
They would have to publish a good deal of data about how effective the vaccine is and also the effects of HPV in men before I would even think about getting it.
Because this seems very very odd and after the men’s birth control pill got canned because of sexist bias, feminist and democrat intervention I have no reason to trust the pharmaceutical industry.
For all I know it is just a snake oil scheme. But hey I suppose that attitude is justified as men as a class receive sub par health treatment throughout the world and societies version of health care for men is “have a quick heart attack”.
