As I have never had an STD passed onto me, I do have some things to say from my own experience from having unprotected sex when I wasn't in a relationship. It's not something that I would do again. As Lil and some of the other's have said, safe sex should be a number 1 priority for any couple of those one has an STD. Because I had unprotected sex a couple of times and had a blood test for STD's I can tell you now that the waiting is the hardest part and you start to re-evaluate your life. Not to worry I was given the all clear. But still it's the thought of "what do I tell my parents? my friends etc. How do I go through life with the consequences of my actions? What do I do now?"
I know that genital warts doesn't fit into the high echelon of HIV/AIDS but you run the risk of all sorts of nasties both as a transmitter and as a carrier. It just comes down to self respect and respect for your partner.
I once saw a caption for condoms on a vending machine. It said "if it's not on, then it's not ON."
As something that Lil was trying to point out, irresponsible behaviour has it's ugly side as well. You and your partner must take responsibilty for your actions. Take it from someone who has been there and come out ok at the end of the tunnell. It's as scary as hell and it makes you wake up to yourself.
Having read over your posts, it seems to me you think it's some kind of joke. Even with the advice given from other's in here you continue to think it is a joke. Maybe it's just me, but it certainly seems that way.
