FF,

Ranchmama Dena, I agree with your management position of not condoning the transfer of body fluids for health reasons regardless of the LPIN statutes.

As a matter of House Policy I concur, I do however give deference to the State Of Nevada, The Nevada Board Of Health, and Nye County while concurrently recognizing each authority joint and several.

The fact is that infections and disease can be transferred through unprotected sex.

Agreed, which is why NAC 441A.805 exists.

I’ve had two friends die in the last 2 years from cancer caused by HPV through unprotected cunnilingus that occurred many years prior.

Assuming these two friends are male, it seems you have stumbled on something very rare. It is largely accepted that an estimated 75% to 80% of males and females will be infected with HPV in their lifetime. As you cited, there is no test for men to check their HPV status. However, HPV usually goes away on its own, without causing health problems. So an HPV infection that is found today will most likely not be there a year or two from now. Young men can protect themselves with a vaccine, Gardasil, and for those who are polyamorous it is a good idea. As a hobbyist it is best to take all precautions. As one who practices polyamory I have a complete sexual screening 2 to 3 times a year while observing the tenets of safe sex.

HPV is so common that nearly all sexually-active men and women who practice unprotected sex will acquire at least one type of HPV during their lifetimes even if both partners are totally monogamous.

I find the last part of this citation interesting. Your scenario: Both partners are “totally” monogamous, not to be confused/conflated by/with serial monogamy, and HPV being an STI , the infection, by defination is sexually transmitted. How could two uninfected people (exclusively having had sexual contact only with the other.) become infected?

You must have a source for this, Please cite.

My Best,

Mav
