Are there some people who have a better chance of getting genital herpes?

Anyone can contract genital herpes. It doesn't affect a particular group of people more than another group.

Abstinence is the only thing that is 100% effective. Using condoms and safe sex practices HELPS, but is not 100% effective. Things can happen, such as a condom breaking. Even people who use condoms and practice safe sex can still contract the virus. Genital herpes is an STD that can be spread by DIRECT skin to skin contact. So, even if the guy is wearing a condom, it is only covering his penis and not the whole genital area. Just the rubbing back and forth of the genital area during sex can spread the virus, even if a condom is used. Source(s): Personal experience. I have had genital herpes for 6 years.
~The people who have a lot of sex, who use unprotected sex, and hookers.~
people have many different views on genital herpies some say it can be helped others say it cant but for example if you meet someone your not going to check if they have a cold sore r u i think the answer to your question is yes and no some people r prone to cold sores others dont get them at all but if you are daft and dont protect yourself then yes you will end up with them people who are not self aware are more likely to get them
Yes, those who have unprotected sex with people who have herpes. You see, i'm one of the rare ones who'll never have it because I don't allow myself to be exposed to it.
yes. if you or someone you know has AIDS or HIV, or a low immune system. or you are with some one has herpes
I don't think any one person or group of people has a higher chance of contracting herpes. It is not genetic, it is sexually transmitted. Your chance of getting herpes would only depend on taking responsibility for your own sexuality: 1. Do you know the sexual history of your partner(s)? 2. Do you use protection (both condoms and dental dams)
