Girls and HPV vaccine

So, I’ve been thinking about the Perry/Bachman positions on vaccination.  On one hand, you have the idea of public health (vaccination) for the good of society, and the other, infringement of government by dictating vaccinations.  In some ways both positions have their merits, and are worth more public discussion.  However, the vehicle used to transmit these ideas are voiceless girls’ bodies.  Girls have no say in the whole thing.  And the points gain traction because they ride on fears of girls’ burgeoning sexuality, the need to intervene while they are still virgins, and good old paternalism to shelter and protect girls.
