I'm not sure exactly which sub-forum this should go in, so please move it if I placed it in the wrong one. >_< I also apologize if this is a stupid question. I'm not too well-informed, and there's not many people I can talk to about this sort of thing...

My girlfriend and I (a girl as well) are both virgins, we're each other's first experiences in anything, even kissing. We haven't gone very far yet, but I just know it's going to happen soon. I was looking up possible STD's and STI's, just in case, on the Internet, and some sites gave very confusing information and now I'm slightly paranoid. I'm pretty sure there's a very low chance of either of us getting anything from the other, us both being virgins before each other, but I'm not quite sure. Can anyone give me more information on this, or confirm/disprove my fears? Thank you to anyone who helps me...I won't be on until later today, I'll read any help then. Thank you again. <333

Unfortunately, even virgins can carry STDs.

"It is possible to be born with a sexually transmitted infection. Some infections, such as gonorrhea, herpes, HPV, HIV, and syphilis, can be passed from a woman to the fetus during pregnancy or childbirth."

So, the best thing, always, BEFORE becoming sexually active, is to go get a pap smear and get tested for those types of STDs.
