So what are you doing to protect yourself?

[JahDucky]

You dont know who has what out there and a good handful of young folks have STD's and are not honest about them. Although there are a good ammount of folks who are honest about their STD's. Like one kid I met was totally open about having herpes(this person also spoke of making sure they didnt pass it off to anyone else). I admired that about this kid.

But not everyone is that open about it or even plays it safe with their STD's. Drunken nights and promiscuity...How often do we really protect ourselves, and do we speak openly about STD's. They are real and I know of too many kids having unprotected sex and it worries me that the few left in this bunch without STD's might get one.

I browsed the search for this topic and didnt see it. So Here I would like to know what your ideas on STD's and how to prevent or protect others from STD's.

I have a solid partner (see above photo) and we don't use anything but fertility awareness, which has worked great for the whole three years we've been hanging out.

However, we are polyamorous, so when we see other people we are cautious to use condoms. I also avoid giving sexual partners (other then my love) blowjobs cuz I don't want to get anything.

I am very pro-condom, and I wish everyone else was too... but fuck, I guess I know that isnt going to happen. WEAR ONE!!! PLEASE!!! even if you are on birth control, that one time you dont wear one can be the worst day of your life -- TRUST ME.

(no, I dont have any STDs, but I have had a pregnancy "scare" or 2)

WOW your dating Santa?!:applaud:

 

[Gypsybones]

yeah with traveler girls I get a little over protective

 

[Gypsybones]

I don't worry about it to much since I am in a long term committed relationship, so we use no protection against STD's, but we do have protection against babies... My vasectomy!

really? how is that vasec? I don't know anyone personally who's gotten it and I've always wondered how sex is after? is it the same or does feeling change now that you dont produce semen?

 

[Gypsybones]

oh snap! I did not know that, never thought to look. thanks

 

[Gudj]

Up the condoms!

 

[boucaneer]

yeah, comdoms are a survival must. aid's and all the rest of the shit.

but be carefull when even copping off with someone as you can tramsmit hepatitus from just kissing like, so pick your partners carfully.

 

[JahDucky]

There was a moment on the road where I would stock up on comdoms and give them to my buddies who had buddied up for the night. I just wanted to make sure they were okay. I had my own supply as well. But I worry about folks.

I just carry condoms if I think there's a chance I might have sex, and manage to not have sex if I don't have one (it's a miracle I manage this while drunk, but whiskey dick usually plays its part). It's not like condoms are hard to get hold of for free, most drop-ins have them, so there's no excuse not to use them.

As I have said a thousand times to my kids,WRAP THAT RASCAL!If you go at it with the right attitude,condoms can also be fun(beyond the waterballon of doom),and it shows that you might just care about your partner!

Showing a little self respect earns respect form your partner as well...way beyond just caring about them.

 

[dirty_rotten_squatter]

Yup wrap that shit up tight yo! I don't care much for sex these days, but when I do do the dirty, I throw a condom on that bitch!!

 

[wildboy860]

yep.. I make sure to have 2 condoms in my wallet at all times. though I don't use them often enough! they're there when I need 'em. unless I'm with a steady partner I've grown to trust.

 

[Ravie]

I just dont fuck people randomly...seems to work out.

 

[Gypsybones]

yeah barn yard animals are safer

 

[wartomods]

i am saving myself for marriage.

 

[Gypsybones]

what I use for protection

 

[Ravie]

I'm not saying i dont have sex. im just saying i either have a single monog. relationship or I get with a guy ive known for a long time. condoms are good even for people you think dont have std's though, most of the time they dont even know they have it. clean so far so im doing something right.
