Would you date a Man/Woman Who you saw in a Genital Herpes Commercial?
just wondering.

TV just had one of those drug commercials for some pill to "prevent outbreaks" of Genital Herpes. Had a very attractive couple dancing outside on the front porch.

and it got me thinking....

can these actors walk into a bar and get picked up if someone recognized them from the Genital Herpes commercial they starred in?

wouldn't you AT LEAST ask?

1. I probably would date them because
I think they're just actors and don't really have the herpes but yes I would ask them before we did anything naughty.

2. Actually they ARE compromising their careers to be in those commercials
I mean..who wants to be typecast as someone suffering from oily rectal discharge? :nuke:

3. Not Only Would I Date an Actor in the Commercial

I might even date someone who had genital herpes for real if we were compatible...There are ways to be safe and I'm not close minded...

4. Well, if they were in the commercial...
I would assume that if they did have herpes then at least they know about what precautions to take.

I'd be more likely to ask them how much they got paid to be in a herpes drug commercial.

6. That valtrex and that tampax makes for a fun time, don't they?
You can go dancing, swimming, bike riding, hiking and even kissie face time while swinging with both of them...without worrying about those pesky outbreaks and leaks...

got to love advertisements...

And I would have to ask..."so, huh, you're an actor????right????"

8. The statistics are that every 1 in 6 people have herpes.....
Edited on Mon Jun-14-04 04:48 PM by jus_the_facts
....so the odds are you've already dated someone with it at some point in time! :scared:

Luckily...I fall into that other 5 percentile!!! :bounce:
