Why is herpes tough to transmit via oral sex

well oral gonorrhea most of the time does not have symptoms. herpes if you don't have now would show up with a cold sore and with syphilis you would see a very noticible sore.

i have never worried about getting an STD from giving a woman oral sex. It really is low risk. if you are worried then you can get tested. Throat swab for gonorrhea after 1 week. herpes after 3 months but chances are you have it because many, many people have oral herpes-and it is tough to transmit via oral sex and syphilis at 6 weeks-this is rare in developed countries.
