Hump Wednesdays: Stay STD Free with STFree

It all starts with a kiss.  Next thing you know you’re all over each other, body temperature rising, breathing heaving, overcome with arousal.  Her cheeks grow flushed with passion.  Soon her pupils dilate, her breasts grow tender, and her lips swell before her muscles contract and a feeling of euphoria washes over her as she finally climaxes.

Sex is one of the best things life has to offer.  Better yet, orgasms are one of the best things life has to offer. But in an era where porn stars have invaded our lives via fluid swapping reality shows, we’ve all too quickly forgotten the dangers that comes from one-night stands and unprotected sex.

Truth is, however, most of us aren’t going to be waiting until marriage to give it up.  Hell, many of us don’t even know that the institution of marriage is right for us.  And for people who are too busy with life to commit to just one person, casual partners and short-lived relationships are the reality of our situation.

But we mustn’t mean be reckless in our ways.  A 2008 study revealed that around 26 percent of American girls ages 14-19 had at least one of the four most common sexually transmitted infections (Source).  So you can only imagine what the percentage is like as we get older.

I’m not trying to be a Debbie Downer.  Actually, what I wanted to share is the website which I think is super neat.  It’s called STFree and they you can sign up for these “licenses” — kind of like the card given by a health insurance provider — and what it does is store your last two STD, as well as HIV/AIDS, tests.

Then, when you meet a potential future sweetheart or f^ck buddy, you give them the number on the back of the card, along with your membership ID number.  Then all they have to do is dial, input the member ID and it’ll provide your partner with your status.  Because there’s no point getting tested after the casual sex.

Please bare in mind that if your partner is aware of their being infected with the human immunodeficiency virus and taking the necessary cocktails they will test negative. Just an FYI.

So from someone who loves to swap fluids as much as the next, please be safe.

Please be sure to check out the site at http://stfree.com/.
