Every so often something strikes home. The other day a friend told me of their first penetrative sexual act. "We forgot to use a condom at first" I was told.
I was more than surprised. I have always spoken to them of the need for a condom, especially since the partner was of unknown sexual history. The additional complication is that there was a potential for impregmation from the act, despite it not leading initially to orgasm.
I wanted to remind us all: Precum can contain spermatazoa, in sufficient quantities to impregmate. (impregnate a GIRL< dummy!). All bodily fluids have the capability to pass infective agents if the person is themselves infected (or a carrier! Remember Typhoid Mary?).
It struck me, yet again, that condoms are the last thing on our minds when we engage in a sexual act with a partner of unknown history.
Why?
I think I will contruct a survey, soon, for the front page.
