Men can't get the kind of HPV that causes cervical cancer in women

Now there is talk about men "getting high risk HPV" on their lips and other places. Let me make this clear: MEN CANNOT GET THE KIND OF HUMAN PAPILLOMAVIRUS THAT CAUSES CERVICAL CANCER IN WOMEN.

This is nothing more than a report concoted by MRAs and not real medical professionals. Studies have shown that women are the only ones who can get the 13 high risk HPVs. There are only four kinds of HPV that men can get: HPV 1, HPV 2, HPV 6 and HPV 11. HPV 1 causes foot warts, HPV 2 causes hand warts and HPVs 6 and 11 causes genital warts.

I wish I knew who was publishing this bogus report, so I can really tell them off.
