Dear Ann Landers,
et me begin by saying I am a fourteen- year-old girl, and I don't know anything about the subject I am writing about. I mean venereal disease. I only know what I have read in magazines, and that's not much. Can a person get V.D. from kissing someone who has a sore on his lip? Could I get V.D. from kissing my aunt? How can a person tell if he has V.D. without going to a doctor? Where would a teen-ager go for treatment if he didn't want his parents to know? Please give me some information. I feel very ignorant and I can't talk to any adult about this. The kids in my crowd don't know any more than I do, and they'd appreciate some information too. -Curious And Needing Answers

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, joyless or pure hell-yet nothing is done about them for one reason or another. A few couples voiced the notion that most marriages are tolerable but even the individuals involved in those marriages would not have picked the same partner if they had it to do over again. Almost in unison, three males said, “Let’s ask Ann Landers.” (I was one.) So we are asking you to do another survey. Question: “If you had it to do over again, would you marry the person to whom you are now married?” Sign us -Eager to Know Dear Eager: At least a hundred others have written to ask for the same survey. So here’s the question and some specific instructions. Please answer the question: “If you had it to do over again, would you marry the person to whom you are now married?” Use postcards, if possible. Write either yes or no. State whether you are male or female-and the number of years you have been married. Sample: Dear Ann: Yes-Female-35. I will print the results as soon as I get them. That letter ran on Valentine's Day of 1977. Within 10 days, my offke was bombarded with more than 50,000 pieces of mail, and letters continued to pour in for weeks after. The results were published on March 28, 1977.
