Throat Cancer Is Becoming an Epidemic, And Oral Sex May Be Why
Over the past two decades, there has been a rapid increase in throat
cancer in the west, to the extent that some have called it an
epidemic.
This has been due to a large rise in a specific type of throat cancer
called oropharyngeal cancer (the area of the tonsils and back of the
throat).
The main cause of this cancer is the human papillomavirus (HPV), which
are also the main cause of cancer of the cervix. Oropharyngeal cancer
has now become more common than cervical cancer in the US and the UK.
HPV is sexually transmitted. For oropharyngeal cancer, the main risk
factor is the number of lifetime sexual partners, especially oral sex.
Those with six or more lifetime oral-sex partners are 8.5 times more
likely to develop oropharyngeal cancer than those who do not practice
oral sex.

The Kiss of Death definition will have to be updated
======================
What is the kiss of death in a relationship?
Contempt. The article I read identified contempt as being the "kiss of
death" in marriage and relationships. I think of contempt as being a
more intense form of criticism. Contempt involves making threats, name
calling and insults, and just downright treating your spouse or
partner with hurt and meanness.Apr 19, 2016
