Cultural Difference in the Attitude toward Inflected
When the inflected is living in USA or Europe, his possibility of being accepted by other people including his friends and co-workers is comparatively higher than this in a Eastern country. It is just my own opinion, very personal but very true. I am living in Hong Kong, a Chinese society. You can never imagine how inferior will be if you tell your friends or co-workers that you are inflected with HPV. My life is now nearly paralyzied by the inflection. I get difficult to fall in love or get married because no girl in Hong Kong can accept an STD inflected as her husband. If you donno tell the fact, it is highly likely that she will be inflected and so as you children. Unless you donno love her, you have to tell the truth. But when you tell the truth, you lose her. A paradox!
I am also depressed by the recurrence of the warts. Nearly all treatments creat pain and affect my daily life.

that is quite a paradox. people become more aware of things everyday. hopefully people will learn about hpv and the research for cure will get more attention.

Move out of there and get with more open minded people!! You are not alone!!!And you should not be embarrassed you did nothing wrong. If a women will not accept you fo rbeing a great person then guess what she doesn't love you!!

I'm sorry to hear about your culture not accepting it as easily. I can't even imagine. Those people need to get informed I guess. I will second the Aldara treatment though. It seems to be working so far for myself.

As if we can tell people we have HPV anywhere... S*** it sucks to have this disease. I guess we just have to get used to living with it.
