How do you get a std if you never had sex? i just need too know.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Define "sex": There are a rare few that can be passed from mother to baby, like syphilis, gonorrhea, HPV warts & HIV. However, these are rare & recognized in the newborn period if medical care is available. You get STD's through intimate contact, so some forms of sex, the heavy petting kind will do it.
