Oral Sex
Many activities other than vaginal sex, including oral sex, are common expressions of human sexuality. More youth engage in oral sex than in vaginal sex, and oral sex often precedes vaginal sex. This is likely because teens consider oral sex to be more acceptable than vaginal sex and to have fewer consequences, health, emotional, or social, than vaginal sex. Although many people believe the false assumption that oral sex is the "safe form of sex," people can still transmit STDs through oral sex and are at a risk of developing certain cancers.
