Re:Why Is Colorectal Cancer Rising Rapidly Among Young Adults? by HPVadvisory on Wednesday February 08, 2023 @12:30AM (#34704498)
There is no shortage of links between HPV and anal cancer, throat cancer, prostate cancer, all affecting males.

"Percentage probably caused by any HPV types" https://www.cdc.gov/cancer/hpv/statistics/cases.htm

91% of anal cancer 63% of penis cancer 70% of oropharyngeal cancer

It's a highly contagious virus that is hard to prevent, unfortunately. But education and awareness would be good even if the vast majority of the population will get some form of HPV. The vaccines are effective against the previously most common cancer causing strains, however additional strains not yet covered by vaccination are on the rise.
