    I looked this up just to be certain. The answer according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is yes. I highlighted the relevant part in my quote.

    How do people get HPV?
    HPV is passed on through genital contact, most often during vaginal and anal sex. HPV may also be passed on during oral sex and genital-to-genital contact. HPV can be passed on between straight and same-sex partners—even when the infected partner has no signs or symptoms.

    It really varies. Everyone is different. Zovirax is a medication used to keep breakouts under control.
