GOING TO HAVE SEX WITHOUT CONDOM-Should I?
Only if you want to die a slow, agonizing, painful death. :biggrin1:
Seriously, it's 2010 and I think some young people have become lackadaisical about safe sex. The AIDS cocktails or more properly, course of antiretroviral treatment is not fun or cheap, and some backasswards insurance companies won't cover the newer more effective drugs available. :irked: IMHO Just because you don't die quickly like people in the 1980's did doesn't mean it's okay to risk it.
Lest we forget herpes . . . still uncurable. :frown1:
Condoms offer moderate protection against HSV-2 in both men and women, with consistent condom users having a 30% lower risk of HSV-2 acquisition compared with those who never use condoms[27] The virus cannot pass through a latex condom, but a condom's effectiveness is limited because it does not prevent skin contact or bodily fluid contact with the scrotum, anus, buttocks, upper thighs or area immediately surrounding the penis, all of which are susceptible to infection with and transmission of the virus. Preventing contact with these areas during sex, in addition to wearing a condom, should theoretically provide enhanced protection against herpes. Wearing clothing or undergarments such as boxer shorts that cover these susceptible areas but still allow access to the genitals through a small opening (such as a fly) should help prevent transmission and infection.
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a lentivirus (a member of the retrovirus family) that causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), a condition in humans in which the immune system begins to fail, leading to life-threatening opportunistic infections. Infection with HIV occurs by the transfer of blood, semen, vaginal fluid, pre-ejaculate, or breast milk. Within these bodily fluids, HIV is present as both free virus particles and virus within infected immune cells. The four major routes of transmission are unsafe sex, contaminated needles, breast milk, and transmission from an infected mother to her baby at birth (Vertical transmission). Screening of blood products for HIV has largely eliminated transmission through blood transfusions or infected blood products in the developed world. HIV infection in humans is considered pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO).
[QUOTE=the123;2611826]I posted on here when i lost my viriginity and couldnt stay hard let alone cum however i seem to do this fine when alone.
I am going to someones house next week and most likely have sex without a condom- she says she has been tested around christmas and i havent ever had sex without a condom and therefore obviously dont carry any diseases.
So would people reccomend it- apart from pregnancy(she is on the pill) and diseases there isnt much else that can go wrong- right?
Any views would be appreciated. Thanks.[/QUOTE]
Why don't you go get tested together. It can be a nice bonding thing. :smile:
If she was tested before Christmas and was clean then, and you are absolutely 110% positive she hasn't had sex with anybody since that test, then sure go ahead and chance it.
