An Oral Contract

So I just read this article on the connection of oral sex and throat cancer.

The article compared giving head to smoking in the risk factors for getting throat cancer.  The reader comments on the site were split as to what they thought about the article, mixed with the usual rude jokes.

This is not the first time I've come across an article like this.  The main idea of the articles I keep coming across, seems to be pointing out more then anything,  the rise in the number of teens/twentysomethings who are opting for oral over intercourse.  The reason the teens/twentysomethings gave when asked why they are having more oral sex was that they believed it was safer.

But that's not the case. 

As everyone knows, it's very easy to say "use a condom" every single time you have any form of sex; but not always so easy to do so. 

The article has got me wondering if we have become too careless in general when it comes to sex?
