fear of getting STDs

Okay, I play rugby football at my university and go bar-hopping and clubbing with my buds. They've only got one thing on their minds and are always looking to score with any hottie. We've got our team groupies as well - the sorority girls - and lots of casual sex. Except for me. I've got a fear of getting STDs from these sluts & hoes simply because they are willing to put out for any guy on the team or put out the very first time you meet them at a club. In fact, if I was with a steady g/f, I'd ask for her (and myself as well) to get an STD test before having sex or even a BJ.

So am I overly cautious? I know sorority girls who have had clamadia, genital herpes, syphilis, etc. EWWW. And if they so easily give it up or go down on you, then they've done that with a bunch of other guys as well. I was thinking of finding a nice girl at church on Sundays instead of our team parties or the clubs, but they all think I'm just another football jock.

Is it every other or every third girl you meet who has HPV? I forget, but it's ridiculously high. Your fears are well-founded.

Better to be safe than sorry, and I find it very admirable that this is an issue to you, because for most guys it's not. ;)

Church isn't always the best way to go. Had a ministers daughter once and she was the kinkiest slutiest girl I've ever been with. Man I miss her.

meet your women somewhere other than bars or stripjoints and you won't have to be overly cautious.

At the universities where the fraternities and sororities are on the same side of campus - on the same street, instead of on opposite sides of campus, the STD rate is higher. I've heard upwards of 50% at the party schools. You know, the colleges that are above community colleges, but below the universities.

I used to think it was just a stereotype. Then I met a sorority girl that met all the stereotypes.

I think what you're doing is the right thing. I'm sure most of the ATOT population would disagree with me though. Lots of people just want to get laid, period. You're looking out for yourself, nothing wrong with that at all. When you're comfortable, just make sure it's protected. If you have the slightest doubts about a girl, don't go down no matter what. :disgust:

Anyway, to each his/her own and imho you are not being overly cautious. You are being smart.

No, fraternities/sororities are pretty much exactly like the stereotypes.

Of course, with every rule there is an exception...but...it holds true for most of them.

The question you have to ask yourself is this: Is a one time lay worth 6 months of fear? If you already know that it will bother you, nothing, and I mean nothing will make you feel ok about the situation if you even have the slightest idea that you may have an STD.

However, if your in to using protection and still have irrational fears, then you may be too cautious. Balance is always key.

I never thought that rumor was true until I experienced it myself. It was true x10000. I miss her too. :D

No..keep up what you're doing. There is nothing wrong in looking out for numero uno and that is YOU. I just took an STD test myself and everything came out negative. So the next time I hook up with someone and she wants to do it, she better show me her results first. If she wants to look at mine, it's right on the wall!

STDs are not fun PERIOD. It will affect the rest of your life.

i read a study somewhere that suggested at the current rate of increase, by 2050, half of all women in early adulthood would have genital herpes.

Casual sex is kind of overrated anyways. You don't have to buy into it. A lot of those people you mentioned probably already have STDs and don't know it, or keep it to themselves. They sure as hell aren't gonna tell you if they got treated for genital warts or anything.

BTW, condoms won't really protect you from genital warts and HPV.
