Gardasil for everyone.......ok ages 19-26

If this class has taught me anything so far, it is that communication is way more confusing than I previously imagined. The article we read was so far over my head, I think I finished only remembering: peripheral and .... something else. After lecture though I felt really excited to start our project. After choosing Gardasil for men as our sexual health topic, and our awesome blog title that sometimes is read incorrectly, our group is ready to get started. Just to clarify SexFXu = sex affects you, not the other way. Since I work at Planned Parenthood I am personally really excited about our topic because Planned Parenthood of the Pacific South West (PPPSW, which is the new name for the San Diego affiliate) is rolling out the Gardasil vaccine assistance program for men in the coming months. This is a big deal since this program makes the Gardasil vaccine affordable ($20 an injection) for women AND men ages 19-26. As far as I know PPPSW does not have a Gardasil campaign for men running in the clinics. I really hope that we do an awesome job on our project and PPPSW loves it so much that they want our campaign in the clinics.
