terah -> Safe Sex and STDs (3/23/2005 1:50:18 PM)


We recently had a round table here in DFW dicussing safe sex and std's.
For this house we ask people to fill out a questionaire about their over all health and sexual practices. we dicuss everything openly before that person is allowed to be intimate with anyone.

How you you all handle these questions and or issues?

Personally I require test results. Anyone who finds that too offensive in this day and age is just out of luck, as far as I'm concerned. I have too many responsibilities to put my life on the line with someone's past sexual history.

We are not promiscuous and use the same precautions we would use if we were both single and dating. That being said....we are not promiscuous...lol.



best regards,

Asking and open discussion is all well and good. But I would insist on someone getting a panel test for STD's, and handing me a copy of the results from the doctor, before I swap body fluids with them.

I don't have sexual contact with folks who bottom for me, but I would have no problem providing this for someone else if I were looking for a sexual partner.

Being vaccinated for hepatitis on your own probably isn't a bad thing to look into for your own safety.

As mentioned by others, test results are the best way to go here. Alot of people are intimidated or embarrassed to go to their doctors for STD tests, but there are alternatives such as home test kits for these deseases that will give you results within minutes. You can know if there is anything wrong with your partners before any sexual activity takes place.

You do not have to go to your doctor to obtain a test sample. Kits are available from HIV clinics - and doctors are under know obligation to be informed.

Funny how all your posts are all about STD and Aids.

Peace and Love

I'm an active slut and have lots of sex with lots of partners. I use condoms with no exception but not dental dams or gloves and I swallow with people who have recent tests. Anyone who gets involved with me understands this about me and we go to the partners highest level of comfort.

For example, if I want to have sex with someone and they want to use a dental dam, then we use one. But if I want to have sex with someone and they don't care about condoms or not, we use a condom.

It absolutely is a discussion I have with any regular partner very early on. It should become something everyone is comfortable with. But we don't have a formal questionairre and there's certainly no standard before any of us can have sex with anyone else. This is why I make the choices based on what I consider reasonable protection for myself, and not relying on what anyone else MAY say or MAY do.

I use condoms, but not dental dams. I've never had anyone request one. I DO swallow. I realize that I am taking a calculated risk. I get tested for STD's about every three months and have gotten tested for HIV every 6-8 months for the past few years. I currently have two partners. They are both aware of the other.
If I were to enter a fluid-bonded, fairly monogomous relationship with someone we would go get tested together and make a date of it.
When I meet someone whom I think I will be sexually active with, I bring up protection. I always mention the fact that I am an avid condom user.
No glove, no love.....

Please keep in mind that condoms don't protect you from HPV.

Can any document be truely trusted in this day and age? I have heard that these medical test results can be falsified very easily. Might I suggest to you all that if you are looking for HIV and STD screening test results that you both go together and have the tests done at the exact same time. Make it a bonding ritual.

Then again, they say HIV takes up to 6 months after infection in order to be detectable. What if she barebacked with a man last week?
