tldr: Tobacco, alcohol, human papillomavirus cause neck & throat cancers & the HPV ("cervical cancer") vaccine really protects against them.
Gay men should get the HPV vaccine as young as possible. In Australia it's standard for all high school boys & girls & has already drastically cut cervical cancer rates. It also protects against penile & anal cancers - HPV damages cells' DNA.
