I've not seen anything to back up this assertion that I'm questioned about all the time and I don't have any data to discount the accusation.
Someone out there must have the accurate data and would you please share it with me so I have an answer to the many sometimes "smart a$$" comments.

A few months ago I told I friend up here in Chicago that I would like to move to The Villages at some point in the future. I heard about the STD rumor from her also. I told her it was bad information...didn't know what else to say. How did this story/rumor ever get started in the first place because it sure has spread? Of course I'm sure the internet has helped to spread it.
