Odds favor a guy having more than one gal, but hardly 10-1. So I guess the rest of the article must be as inaccurate, too.

Although STDs among 55+ in Central Florida, which includes more than The Villages, is up 50 to 70%, which is pretty stiff increase. Also I wonder what the percentage of our population increased in the years mentioned.
Stastics can be deceiving. If 10 people had STD and the next year there were 17, that would be up 70% but it would hardly be an epidemic.
