　　"The Scholars" Chapter 17:“ With such a good weather, his husband happened to go to Liuqiao to explore the spring scenery, look for flowers and willows, and write poems on the West Lake. . ”“"Looking for flowers and asking willows" means enjoying flowers, grass and trees, especially spring scenery. Such an idiom has a good meaning, but it is also associated with improper sexual behavior. In the old days, "Looking for flowers and willows" also refers to male Visit brothels and live a debauched sex life.

　　“The word "flowers and willows" comes from a poem by the Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai:“ In the past, I was drunk with flowers and willows in Chang'an, and the five princes and seven nobles shared a glass of wine. ”. “The term "Hualiu" later became a synonym for literati specifically referring to prostitutes. China's ancient doctors attributed the disease to prostitution sexually transmitted diseases , collectively known as "flower and willow disease". “The name "Hualiu disease" first appeared in a Chinese medical journal in 1921 in Yu Fengbin's book "Hualiu disease: Addicting individuals and harming the masses". The English abbreviation vd of Hualiu disease is taken from the goddess of beauty, Venus; although prostitution and prostitution are far from the goddess of beauty, people still often call it this way to show contempt. Prostitutes have a dual role in the spread of the disease, being both the source of infection and the victim; prostitutes have many clients for prostitution, frequent dirty intercourse, and have the highest prevalence of sexually transmitted diseases. “The ugly behavior of "looking for flowers and asking for willows" is now everywhere. Men who live disorderly lives seek excitement and pleasure, and women who lack education sell their youth for money to satisfy their desires. The social atmosphere has been damaged, people's spiritual character has deteriorated sharply, and the resulting sexually transmitted diseases have seriously threatened the health of the human body. healthy。

　　The concept of contemporary sexually transmitted diseases has been expanded to include some infectious diseases that are mainly transmitted through sexual behaviors. It includes not only classic STDs such as syphilis, gonorrhea, chancroid, lymphocytic odontoma venereum, but also STDs such as AIDS discovered in the 1980s. The pathogens are composed of seven categories of bacteria and germs. They have the characteristics of strong concealment, short incubation period, fast transmission speed, and high harm. There are direct infections of sexual organs, indirect infections, blood-borne and mother-to-child infections, and some patients suffer from two or more STDs at the same time. Among various sexually transmitted diseases, the most serious is AIDS, known as the "super disease". cancer ”, which is extremely harmful to the population and has a very high mortality rate. 　　“"Looking for flowers and asking for willows" is a picture of temporary happiness, but it is difficult to get rid of illness, which will affect future generations. If you are seriously ill, it will be difficult for you to live. Although sexually transmitted diseases are terrible, they can be avoided. The first thing is to "keep yourself clean", pay attention to personal hygiene, and strictly regulate sexual behavior. There is a slang saying in Beijing that people who "seeking flowers and asking willows" are called "walking blindly". I would like to advise those who plan to "find flowers and ask willows" not to go on "the blind road".

　　Patients with sexually transmitted diseases must not go to the doctor indiscriminately. Doctors often use homemade medicines containing mercury for patients to take, which is very harmful. The mercury, cinnabar, light powder, and red powder used are all mercury preparations. Mercury is a heavy metal. Once it enters the human body, it is oxidized into divalent mercury ions and combines with the sulfhydryl groups of enzyme proteins. Therefore, it inhibits the activity of many enzymes, prevents the normal metabolism of cells, and affects various organs of the body, especially the urinary system and central nervous system. nerve The functions of the systemic and autonomic nervous systems are disrupted, leading to multiple organ failure. The sticky flower has suffered a lot, and she refuses to go to a specialist to avoid medical treatment. Hospital Just treat the patient, for fear of losing face, and adopt a "hidden" diagnosis. In addition to being brutally slaughtered by wandering doctors, it will also cause more pain and suffering. The disaster will be serious, the gain will not be worth the loss, and the consequences will be endless.
