Frankly there's a whole lot of confusion still out there today when it comes to herpes.
There's Herpes Simplex, Zoster Herpes, Shingles, Genital Herpes and good old fashioned Chicken Pox.
They're all caused by the same virus, yet somehow everything except shingles and chicken pox gets labeled an STD.
I've had chicken pox as a kid, herpes simplex as an adult and will probably end up with a case of shingles someday if the odds are correct.
Then again in the 70's nobody ever heard of "herpes."
All I know is that nowadays if you don't wrap it up like an egg salad sandwich you stand a good chance of dying of HIV.
Frankly I just find it easier and safer to stay put and surf internet pron these days
