Just wondering
There is a test for men, but since the strains that cause cervical cancer in women do not pose a health risk to men, insurance companies will not pay for it. It is so costly that most doctors won't even administer the test.

On the bright side, that strain does tend to be dealt with by the human immune system within a couple of years of being contracted.

As far as the industry goes, condoms prevent transmission of most of the HPV family of viruses, but you can't do creampies or a decently raunchy ATM with a condom on so, well, there you go...
