"Has he been tested? "

Hi,

I was watching the movie the Birdcage.

There is a part in which a girl informs her father of her decision that she wants to get married with her boyfriend.


Daughter: ... We've been sleeping together for a year.
Father: Oh, God! Has he been tested?
What does his father's reply mean?

Sincerely,

exodejavu What does his father's reply mean? I can only guess. It probably has to do with being tested for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), maybe even for HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.
