have sex with different men? this vaccine means the hpv virus ( which is speard through sex) will no longer affect the cervix or cause cancer. so now women can have sex with who ever they want knowing that it doesnt matter if they have hpv cause they wont get it. what are your thoughts?

Gardasil and Cervasix (still pending approval by the FDA) are two HPV vaccines that protect against certain strands of HPV that cause cervical cancer and genital wart (Gardasil does). Remember there are over 100 different strands of HPV - some cause cervical dysplasia (which undetected can lead to cervical cancer), some cause genital warts, and others cause both. Clinical trials have demonstrated that Gardasil has a 100% efficency rate if used by a non sexually active person.

In regards to your question, please keep in mind that:
1. HPV Vaccine is not the first vaccine that protects against STDs. Hepatis B vaccine has been administered to teens for years and no studies have shown that it promotes promiscuity so the chances that this new vaccine will promote promiscuity are low.
2. The vaccine can protect girls who may be raped or taken advantage from - and God knows what diseases these awful men have. So to this extent, its protective.

HPV causes 100% of all cervical cancer and its the major killer in developing countries.

Actually the vaccine for hpv only protects against 4 types of the disease. There are over 100 of them. I would hope this would not encourage young women to be promiscuous just because there is a vaccine for one std. There isnt one for aids, herpes, syphillis, gonorhea, or trick. They can all be treated and most of them cured but some cant be. I would hope when they talk to young women about it they let them know all the facts concerning the vaccine and exactly what it protects against. I have a daughter on the way and I would stress to her the importance of safe sex with or without the vaccine.

Of course not. What teaches men and women irresponsible sexual behaviour is the complete lack of real sex ed.

i doubt that it will. when i was a young girl, nobody could tell me about cancer because i felt invinceable and really did not care. now that i am older, but no repercussions,(yet) i tried everything that made me happy and anybody else i could make happy with my 36-24-36 body.
