Oral sex linked to mouth cancer: Swedish study

The Swedes recently published a study that states if a person has the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) and another person performs oral sex on them, then the blower, if you will, is more likely to develop mouth cancer.

Makes sense. We know that HPV causes cervical cancer.

My favorite line from this article is the following:

"'You should avoid having oral sex,' dentist and researcher Kerstin Rosenquist, who headed the study."

I wonder if he's (or she, can't really tell by the name, bless it's heart!) in cahoots with the Christian Right.


Excuse me? Avoid oral sex? Why don't you just tell me to avoid breathing?
