So whats the best "condom" to use if your not sure your partner has an "sti?

If you and/or your partner decide not to use a condom just remember - you're sleeping with your partner and everyone THEY'VE slept with for at least the past 10 years! I believe that HIV can remain dormant for at least that long. If you STILL object to condom use you're also raising the risk of impregnating your partner. All babies, by the way, should be "wanted babies"! So unless you WANT a baby or want to raise the RISK of HIV infection then don't use the condom! Otherwise put the "jacket" on "Dick" ! Not making jokes on this but, at times, one needs to be obnoxious to make their point. If you choose not to use the condom then I'll take credit for planting the paranoia in your head as you "enjoy" the intimacy with your partner. Sweet dreams !

No need to buy condoms, folks! Conserve your finances for food instead. Keep abstinent! It's much less expensive financially & less costly emotionally too. We are humans with self-control. Not mere animals who conjugate at the drop of the hat. Are we all so weak?

This should NOT be a surprise. It's common sense.
These people are ignorant. This is the way you should expect it to be.
They compare teenagers & people who are 50+ and are actually stupid enough to be surprised that the seniors are less likely to use condoms. Of course the seniors are less likely to use condoms - THEY don't need them.
Most are past their child bearing years and/or have had their tubes tied or had a vasectomy, etc. Most would have no need to worry about STD's either, since they probably either a) no longer have sex or b) don't sleep around and know where their partners have been. (Note: I said "most". There will always be exceptions.)
What a waste of time, effort and money this "research" was.

There's nothing like the true. I'm 39 years old i like safe sex. I met a man that was older than I. We started to have sex. I asked did he had any condoms. He said no. He was 50 years old. He didn't needed to use condom. I told him he needed it. In order for us to have sex.
