Absolutely. A person can pretty much get any STD from oral sex. Of course some STDs are spread more easily than others through oral sex, and some STDs are pretty rare to contract through oral sex than some other STDs.
The STD that is spread through oral sex more than any other STD is herpes. If a person has cold sores and gives another person oral sex it can cause the person receiving to develop genital herpes, and vice versa (genital area to the mouth).
Herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 cause both cold sores and genital herpes. Cold sores are usually caused by herpes simplex virus 1, while genital herpes are usually caused by herpes simplex virus 2.
Take care!

YES. You can get herpes, gonorreah, chlamydia and almost every other std. If they are spread from skin to skin contact then you are definitely at risk.

Yes. Your mouth and throat are a very welcoming environment for bacteria, viruses and fungi.

Absolutely. You can get gonorrhea, herpes, you name it. Not to mention that your mouth harbors millions of bacteria in it that can cause infection in your partner.
