    [** edited out quote from a underage poster**

    I do believe Type 2 HSV is most often contracted through vaginal/anal sex. It can be passed from an infected person's genitals to the other person's mouth.

    I don't find it can be passed from the mouth to the genitals UNLESS there is a break in the skin on the genitals.
