    1 in 6. Back in 1997 someone told me the statistic was 1 in 4. Leads me to believe that there's a TON of people in their 50s with herpes.

    Would like to see how they got those numbers since that seems extremely high for black women. It says nearly 1 in 2 are infected, but that among all groups 80% do not know they are infected.

    I thought HCP stood for Herpes Chancre Puss.

    Back in the fall of '91 my balls itched the morning after I hooked up with this chic, but that's the closest I think I've come to herpes.

    I'm sure we all want to know the answer to this question, so I'm going to ask it.

    Did your cousin have herpes?
