Yep, g/g seXXXors is lower risk, for some reason. Maybe because we do less penetration over all in comparison? Or less sex in general?
Anyway, the average prevalence of HPV in women in the US between 14 and 59 is around 27% (http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/abstract/297/8/813). Prevalance in lesbians, according to this study (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11392939?dopt=Abstract), was only 13%, and even less in those who had never had sex with men.
However, I have had more partners than most women, and certainly most lesbians, not to mention the PEEN, so I don't think I'm immune.
