So I was reading the paper today, a guy talking about his history of STD's, how it's so common nowadays, and he makes sure he gets checked all the time, but if the woman doesn't insist on using a condom he won't. Another woman commented that all STD's are treatable nowadays anyway.
This is pretty much the information I had growing up, it doesn't really matter if I catch something, I can go to the doctors get some meds and everything is ok!
So reading further, he claims he's had 2 cases of herpes. I'm sorry....how does this make sense?! To me, that reads that he got rid of his herpes.
I just think it's so misleading, and again, it's putting it out there that, STD's are no big deal, carry on sleeping around unprotected.
Really gets my back up! Particularly when I can be quite hard on myself, and I basically don't have sex because I can't be bothered to go through the conversation! Humph!
Rant over....
