It could have to do with the fact that young white men practice oral sex more often and earlier - a common way young people acquire HPV - than black men, according to statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. So, with this particular cancer, the survival gap may well be attributed to sociocultural differences in sexual habits, says Brawley, who wrote an editorial accompanying the study.
