message: Trichomonas vaginalis exhibits corkscrew motility not tumbling motility. (Listeria organisms show tumbling motility).  The corkscrew motion is due to its flagella on one end and undulating membrane along its side that causes the organism to rotate about a longitudinal axis when in motion.

replies: text: We already have clarity.  The CDC and the NIH say it's an STD.  Links are already in the article.  If you have another reliable source I'd like to read it.

thread_title:  other ways... 

message: The article currently specifies equal infection rates between men and women.  Genito-urinary clinic evidence from the UK suggests that the infection is far more common in women , although it is possible fewer men present due to the asymptomatic nature of the disease.  Please can this statistic be rectified.  Many thanks - B.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.162.251.188 (talk) 22:30, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

One thing is certain, TV is easier to detect in females, and so surveillance data alone cannot be relied on. Graham Colm (talk) 22:51, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Male:Female

message: The way these two articles are written has created a lot of unnecessary overlap.  I would think the two articles should be merged, or the "clinical" section of this article moved over (to trichomoniasis) thereby separating the organism from the clinical illness, or integrating both into one article.  As it stands, the other article is fairly weak on content and needs revision.  I would foresee that being a lot of cut-and-paste from this one. What do you think?
