i want to raise awareness about the #STI #herpes. i have been infected with #HerpesSimplex (cold sores) since i was a child.
on top of that I was also infected with #AnalWarts after being gang raped in my teens, which is also a herpes virus.

As there's still taboo and stigma around #STD's i'll share my story soon, but for now, check out my current #StateIamIn in this pic, and #educate yourself on this nasty virus, that makes me 3x more likely to get #HIV
