Can virgins give STD's?

Is it possible for two complete virgins, who have never really done anything with anybody before to get something from each other?

Well, what if your ex had unprotected sex with someone else while you were together? It's a good idea to get in the habit of testing yearly, regardless of past history. It's not a big deal. Just suck it up and go get tested already ;-)

i mean, my first girlfriend and I were both completely new to everything. we had never had any kind of intercourse with anybody before us. we tried everything except anal intercourse, but my new girlfriend says she is still uneasy about it and wants me to get tested, but i think its would just be a complete waste of time since neither my first girlfriend nor myself ever had anything ourselves. so i was just trying to find out if there is, and how large a possibility would be that i could contract something from someone who had absolutely no prior sexual experiece like myself

You guys are fine.  I can understand being nervous about it.  I think she may be over reacting a bit.  If neither one of you has had any sort of physical activity with anyone else you are fine.  About the only thing to worry about in this case would be if one of you has ever had a cold sore in the oral region.  That is a form of Herpes and can be (very rare) transmitted genitally with no symptoms present at all.  But I am almost 30 with multiple partners in my day and have never gotten anything like that.  They say over 50% of the population has had oral herpes so in my brain, the way I look at it is that over have the people that have every performed oral on my has had it and I am negative.  Just practice safe sex and wear a condom.  You'll be fine.

What do you mean by virgin?  No intercourse? but if you have had oral, sure, yo could have something, even skin to skin contact (though rare).  doubt you have anything at all and just are a little uneducated as to how to contract STD's.  Understandable, believe me.  I am almost 30 and did not know much about herpes until recently.  So why don't you elaborate a little more so we can help you out.
