MambaX: Regarding your “Prevention”:
Statement:Using a condom eliminates the risk of getting an STD.
FALSE: Every STD in the world can be transmitted while using a condom correctly and consistently. While the condom may reduce the risk of some, it eliminates the risk of none.
Consider: 600 million condoms are produced in the US each year. The FDA requires that no more than one condom in 250 can fail a leakage test. So, if you do the math, condom companies are allowed to distribute a total of 2.4 million defective condoms every year.

Why has the behavioral approach of REDUCING SEXUAL PARNTERS been so much MORE EFFECTIVE than condom distribution? There are a number of reasons.

One reason is that most people do not use the condom consistently and correctly, even after being given sex education. In one study of over five hundred couples who were repeatedly advised by their clinicians to use condoms, only 8 percent of them used it consistently, despite the fact that they knew one partner had herpes and the other did not! [Anna Wald et al., “Effect of Condoms on Reducing the Transmission of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 from Men to Women,” The Journal of the American Medical Association 285 (27 June 2001): 3103.]

Some might assume, “Well, at least some protection is better than none.” This would seem to be a logical argument. After all, condom use can reduce the odds of HIV transmission during an act of intercourse. However, one study of over seventeen thousand people in Africa showed that inconsistent condom use was not protective against HIV.
In the presence of an epidemic, unless a person changes his or her behavior, it may be only a matter of time before he or she is infected.
For this reason Dr. Norman Hearst said that he feared that we are “raising a generation of young people in Africa that believe that condoms will prevent HIV.”
While condoms may reduce the risk of HIV transmission, they do not “protect” against AIDS. When people are not taught the difference and are left thinking that risk reduction equals protection, they are more open to take risks that they cannot afford.

A second reason why the “safe sex” message has failed to curb AIDS is that the “protection” offered by the condom decreases with repeated exposures.
A study funded by the Centers for Disease Control followed sexually active young women (most of whom had a steady boyfriend) to assess condom effectiveness over time.
The study found that those who used condoms consistently and correctly were not statistically less likely to acquire at least one STD than the girls who used condoms inconsistently or not at all. According to Dr. J. Thomas Fitch, “This study illustrates what happens over time with numerous acts of sex with an infected partner even when a condom is used.”
Similar observations have been seen in Africa. Edward Green remarked, “20 years into the pandemic there is no evidence that more condoms leads to less AIDS. . . . Over a lifetime, it is the number of sexual partners [that matter]. Condom levels are found to be non-determining of HIV infection levels.”

Sorry so long, but it’s bogus teaching that condoms will protect against STD’s and indiscriminate partners.

You do not have to keep a puppy in until they have every shot. That is just a stupid thing to say. Did you pat yourself on the back after you said it? Hope that dose of self esteem you got from being such a bitch gets ya through the day.

Heres my guy Fido,
