Yes, Virginia you can get it from sex continued

Copyman:

Was not attacking you, really, just trying to bring sense into the discussion. Drug addicts who got HIV or Hep C from sharing needles was because blood went into the syringe and was shared that way, not because there was blood on the needle. like I said there are things we need to be careful about but for me and I said me I choose not to obsess about the near impossible.

Thank you for pointing out how bad my spelling is. But I already know that. And I do not think at all that I am an expert. But I do think that jumping to conclusions of how we get hep-c does not make sense when there are far more reasonably explanations like I just wrote to cquest.
  I am kind of surprised that you are picking on me about my spelling. I have enjoyed reading you the past few weeks and like who you think, but no matter how smart you sound or how much I like reading you, I do not think you or me or anyone else on here are the last word.
  I think for myself after getting as much information from others.  And on this topic alot of the razor and sex thing does not fit compared to other explanations.  But thank you again for telling me I must be an idiot because of my spelling

Sorry to hear about all these people having hcv.  Here's a truth. In the past but hopfully not the near future, if there was 100 woman standing up in front of me and only one of them were sick or at least who has had a "past"  and they didn't say a word nor did I know anything about them, I would pick the only one out of a hundred that had the "past".
   You mentioned people sitting aroung smoking pot, well of course theres infection and blood being passed. And gun shootings, if he was a cop please excuse me but who is living a healthy life says "Oh, I got shot, but dont worry it was friendly fire"
  I would bet most of us choose partners that had similure back grounds as us and even faimily members so to say that someone close to you got hcv because of having sex with you or sharing a house with you, is not anything but hysteria.
I would suggest you stop smoking pot and stop playing with guns with is quite a foolish thing and clear your head

I don't think anybody is debating the fact that HCV can be spread by sex.  Of course it can.  Many of us are guarded against the hysteria and shame that is being injected into this conversation.
