In this post we will be talking more about one of the common STDs found in society this days. It’s common name is called “The Clap”. Gonorrhea is almost always contracted through direct person-to-person contact and/or sexual intercourse. This is yet another STD where it may infect a person for days or weeks without any symptoms. It is highly communicable. There is a 40% chance of contracting Gonorrhea from just one sex act with an infected person. Some symptoms for a woman may include creamy or green, pus-like vaginal discharge, bleeding between periods, and painful urination. Long-term complications for women may include; Pelvic Inflammatory Disease which can lead to sterility, and abscesse.
Some symptoms for men may include painful urination, creamy or green, pus-like penile discharge or testicular pain. Gonorrhea-infected people who engage in oral sex may spread the infection to the mouth and throat of their partner. Epididymitis, an inflammation of the testicles that can cause sterility, may be a long term complication for men. (Pregnancy Center East)
More advanced symptoms, which may indicate development of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), include cramps and pain, bleeding between menstrual periods, vomiting, or fever.
The fact sheet from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) states, "Many men with gonorrhea may have no symptoms at all, some men have some signs or symptoms that appear two to five days after infection; symptoms can take as long as 30 days to appear. (wikipedia)

Gonorrhea can also be transferred to newborns.

QUOTE ME NO QUOTES!
These days, 'the applause' is still not to be heard....no clap, but for different reasons.......no sex!!! oh well.....
And why does it have to be green?
Why not a nice shade of blue, to go with the cream, making a kind of artistic culinary suggestion, of a blue cheese sauce!!!!!!!!!!!!
sorry about that, I have a creative mind that gets carried away with itself sometimes..

It is indeed better be safe than sorry. It is disgusting, I agree, but it is also crucial to know this so that we can be aware of it.
hi Fog,
I am not very sure the reason of the green is picked, perhaps most fungi are green?
Just be thankful it is not brown-ish red that will have guessed that it bleeds rather than just pus.
Nevertheless, truly appreciated your visits and comments on this. Thank you. ^_^
Have a blessed week ahead.
