...The story is made up, so why would I even care? <br /><br />My point is simple. If you can manage to not have casual sex, great. However, if you do then be sure to use a condom. It will not eliminate the risk of getting an STD entirely but it will reduce it very substantially. <br /><br />Here is what <a href="http://www.fda.gov/forconsumers/byaudience/forpatientadvocates/hivandaidsactivities/ucm126372.htm#guar" rel="nofollow">the FDA says</a> on the subject: <br /><br /><b>Will a condom guarantee I won't get a sexually transmitted disease?</b> <br /><br />No. There's no absolute guarantee even when you use a condom. But most experts believe that the risk of getting HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases can be greatly reduced if a condom is used properly.<br /><br />In other words, sex with condoms isn't totally "safe sex," but it is "less risky" sex.<br /><br />[end of quote]<br /><br />So what would <i>I</i> do? It's a simple answer, and I am not sure why you are pestering me with your question. I'd rather not have sex with a stranger. But if I did then I would use a condom.oleghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11644793385433232819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3555199390227912207.post-25092279516045476162012-07-21T05:08:30.578-04:002012-07-21T05:08:30.578-04:00Caught red-handed repeating a lie, Egnor shameless...Caught red-handed repeating a lie, Egnor shamelessly tries to divert attention from his own dishonesty...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3555199390227912207.post-26328650776660078242012-07-20T12:28:06.591-04:002012-07-20T12:28:06.591-04:00@oleg:

The <i>best</i> that I can come up with for ab-only is that teens, on average, start having sex 12-18 months later.
