"So, you have genital herpes"

I think it's important to start by thinking about how to frame a topic of conversation. You may say something like: "I have a question about similar sounding terms that seem to be totally unrelated", or "I don't understand why it's called genital heart disease". The latter would quickly pinpoint the misunderstanding and therefore the question that should be posed and the issue to be elucidated. These are both much better ways to start a conversation than turning to the person sitting next to you and saying: "So, you have genital herpes [for the record, very not true]". This is, well, just not the right way to start a question about word meanings and origins.

This brings us to the next point; genital != congenital != genetic. Polecat obviously needs to watch more episodes of House, or ER (omg, that show is still on the air?!), or some other suitable medical drama (maybe Scrubs?).

Time to clarify. Genetic is something that is inherited, through one's genes. Congenital is something that is present at birth (there are Latin work origins and stuff), genital is where no one here has herpes.
