Gonorrhea is caused by a bacteria spread through sexual contact, typically intercourse. It is an STD. Some form of sexual contact, skin to skin, is required to spread the infection. It is not spread by air/respiratory, touching an object, etc. One person has to be infected, even if they do not yet know they are infected. However, gonorrhea creates a very specific discharge. If you have a discharge, you should NOT have sex until you are tested AND treated for any STD.
