Second, it is absolutely true and proven - the only way to guard against HPV is abstinence. Sorry, don't care for anyone's "kids will be kids" type arguments, but all other methods of BC and prevention might eventually fail.

Except abstinence. That won't fail, I'll guarantee you. If you don't do it, you won't get it. Any of it. (diseases, pregnancy)
Wow, someone needs to look stuff up or my highschool's sex ed class needs to be updated....

Last I heard HPV was the cause of 95% of all cases of cervical cancer.

And HPV can be spread by large area skin contact via sweat. Usually this occurs during sex, but can occur during other situations as well, so abstinance can fail, nothing is an absolute.
