Yeah, it is your business, until you catch something, and begin passing it on. Then it becomes everyones business.

I have that now with none of the hassles of being in love.

having sex with someone you don't love is not a bad thing. dude, if you are worried then go see a doctor, but as far as i'm concerned you did nothing wrong except to fulfull you desire.

Good feelings are hard to come by these days, especially with someone else. When you find something good, hold on to it, but not too tight, as you may smother it.

Of course not. Anything profoundly intelligent is bound to stump the chumps.

So why pretend like you understand?

Your elitist bullshit gets real old real fast.

He does understand, it appears that you don't.

It is like this, Promiscuis people are more likely to contract AIDS, herpes, syphilis, etc, than those who are in monogamas relationships. The more partners you have, the higher the risk. Remember, when you sleep with someone who is experienced, the sex can be fun, it can be spectacular, but it is still void of emotional feeling, plus, think of all the people that person had slept with in order to gain that experience. You will never know what those other people may have passed on to them, without them knowing. This goes equally both for women and men.

Casual sex makes you feel good at the moment but what does it do for you in the long run other than making you feel empty and dirty

Wait a minute...so a guy has a one night stand, used protection and now needs to see a doctor?

I think you people are losing perspective here. In my own experience (before I met my wife of course), I had several one night stands. It's a part of being young and reckless. Kudos to OS for using protection ;).

Condoms aren't 100% but nothing is. To say he needs to see a doctor after sleeping with someone is ridiculous.

The only reason to see a doctor is if you have symptoms. To feel guilty about having sex with a stranger is natural, because most of us are raised to believe that it is wrong. Personally, if you both are consenting adults more power to you.

You can never be to safe when your talking about your tallywhacker. Whats the harm in seeing a doctor and getting tested? I am sure there is a free clinc somewhere in his town that he can go to. He is worried that he may have come in contact with something that the condom doesnt cover. After all, herpes can be in the pubic hair regin.

Getting tested for herpes is pointless in most cases. So many people have been exposed to the virus that false positives abound.

Most other diseases, a condom provides protection against. As long as the condom stayed intact, there's little to worry about. I totally agree with cherrytwist.

If it makes you feel better, see a doctor. But he's likely to look at you and ask, "so what do you want me to do?"

I'm playing a dangerous game, I know, but that's my business. I don't recommend people do the same, especially in this day and age. With that being said, there is nothing wrong with casual sex.

Yes, sex is a beautiful union between two people that love each other, but it's also something that two strangers can enjoy. You go out, you meet a girl, you shag, you leave, that's it.

North Americans have a totally skewered perspective of sex.

You got laid, get over it.

REgarding the bold print part....
If you engage in unprotected sex alone, that's your business. If you engage in unprotected sex with other people, it becomes THEIR business, too.
If you do not disclose you engage in unprotected sex with others and you pass on an STD to someone who is ignorant of YOUR decision to "spin the cylinder" everytime you stick yourself into someone, well, sir, you are playing with criminal charges. Not to mention being an amoral asshat.
"In this day and age" it is incumbent on you to disclose your penchant for putting people at risk by engaging in sex with you, since you admit to exposure with people whose standards are least as low as yours and you suspect them???
God forgive you if you contract and then pass on something (HIV / Herpes/ et al) to someone who you have chosen to not fully inform of your risky behavior. I wouldn't. If it were my daughter, your waiting for HIV to kill you would be the easiest part. The hard part woud be not speeding up the process.


To paraphrase your parting comment, "If you're going to get laid, be responsible for it."

Couldn't agree more. It would be in the best interest of both parties to protect themselves of course but there is nothing wrong with this...

Last comment I hopefully make in this thread.

If I ever have a daughter, the minute someone comes to pick her up for a date, he will know that sex with my daughter is a big no no. At 16, she is not emotionally equipped to be able to handle all the emotions that sex can stir up.

You want to date my daughter? Here is the deal.

You ask my permission to take her out. Look me in the eye.
I want to know you parents names, address and phone number.
She will carry a cell phone with her at all times, and you had better never ask her to turn it off or not answer it.
You smoke? Don't even bother asking her out. If you can't make decisions about your own health, how can I trust you to make ones in regards to my daughter.
If I can hear you car a mile away, as in RICER or thumping stero, forget it. You are too materialist, and my daughter is no ones trophy.


Reason I went off topic here, is because of some of the immature posts.

True enough, but if you do not fully disclose your less than safe behavior in advance, the other party isn't making a fully informed decision.
Someone may think twice about having sex bareback with you if they knew you had had unprotected sex with at least two partners of suspect sexual history.

If a woman asks how many partners I've had, I always disclose the information. If she asks if I'm clean, I tell her the truth - I am, and have been tested twice. If I had an STD, I would tell the woman and wear protection.

It's not the attitude towards contraception I take issue with, it's the attitude towards sex and sexuality in general. To restate from my original post: Sex is a beautiful union between two people that love each other, but it's also something that two strangers can enjoy.

There is a difference between making love to a woman and having sex with a woman. There is a place in this world of ours for both. I have experienced both and do not prefer one over the other, but each has its place.

...which is fine if that is not what you are looking for. some of the most gratifying sexual experiences of my life have been with women whom i did not love.. i did not feel empty or drained afterwards, and I'm sure many people feel the same way.. for some, love is a prerequisite for sex which is fine, but it doesn't make those of us for whom it is not, bad, disease spreading perverts.

Owned.

Echoing, theNEOone's sentiments, I must add that I am deeply in love with my girlfriend. We have been together for nearly a year and have known each other for three. I have never felt such strong feelings for anyone. What we share is beautiful and I wouldn't trade it for anything. Still, Ulfwald's post was really gay.

Before I began dating my current girlfriend I was sleeping with this Norwegian woman. I would run into her at the bar, we would leave together, shag, and she would leave the next morning. There were no feelings involved, just sex. Once I started dating my girlfriend, we put an end to it. I have remained friends with the Norwegian.

The sex was great, but we didn't feel anything for one another. Now I'm in a meaningful relationship with meaningful sex.

--------------------------
Well you could just as well gone out in the back yard and grunted. It's an opinion of the most shallow and worthless kind. "I find that post gay." What? You find it irrationally upsets you somehow below the level of your language to articulate? You wanted, irrationally and without any pretext at all, to insult the original poster? You think everything is gay? You are gay? Have your opinion, but don't mind me if I have my own about you. You are the dumb in the dumbing down of intelligent discourse, no? I think you're gay. Malefeces is gay too. :D
