Safe Sex
Play it SAFE and SMART. Safe
Sex isn't just about not getting pregnant - it's about your
life. No one is worth the risk of exposing yourself to
sexually transmitted diseases or various other infections.
This page is designed to show you how to play it safe and
smart.
Safe Sex
Information
Having no sex is
obviously the safest sex, but let's be honest, how many of us
are really going to stay abstinent? Sex is natural and in most
cases a wonderful experience. People are not just going
to stop having sex regardless of STD risk or scares. So the
best way to stop unwanted pregnancies and STD's other than not
having sex is by committing to the practice of safe sex.
Be Smart and Be Safe!
For those who
are ready, sex can be an amazing experience. But one great
experience can lead to a troubles that can last the remainder
of your life. An unwanted pregnancy or some STD's is for life
while other STD's cause a lifetime of stress related to the
memory of the experience. Being incurable, there is no getting
rid of AIDS, herpes or HPV.
That is why safe
sex is the best sex. You can get just as much sensual pleasure
while protecting yourself as you can when you don't. But, when
you wake up in the morning you won't wake up with a gift from
that experience that will remain with you for life.
The best form of
safe sex, outside of abstinence,
is the
condom. It protects
against everything that you want to prevent and although it
cannot protect you 100% you can at least know that you are
doing everything you can to protect yourself. When you feel
like you can trust your partner, then
spermacide and female
contraceptives are the next logical choices.
Practice Safe Sex
Are you ready to
have a child with whoever you are sleeping with? Having a
child means you are creating a connection to that person that
will last, at a minimum, of 18 years. Are you ready for
that? Do you want an STD or AIDS to haunt you for the
rest of your life? Are the sexual experiences with this person
worth paying for it for as long as you life and breathe?
It Can Happen To
You!
If you are
having casual sex with many partners or even practicing serial
monogamy (dating one person exclusively at a time), it is wise
to always use a condom. With AIDS and other STD's so prominent
today, you leave yourself very susceptible to exposure when
you choose not to use a condom. Dealing with sores in your
genital area is the least of the concern, the emotional
traumas associated with the stigmas of having an STD are
overwhelming. Are you ready to deal with the emotional
pains and the physical symptoms of genital sores and
discomfort, on and off for the rest of your life? This
is precisely the case as it is when living with genital
herpes.
If you practice
safe sex, you can minimize or oftentimes eliminate the
worries. You can wake up in the morning knowing that you most
likely did not catch a disease and know that you are not an
unplanned parent-to-be.
Unprotected sex
may seem better and may even feel better. But is that
small amount of pleasure worth a lifetime of pain or heavy
responsibility? Think twice about it and if that's not enough,
think again and practice safe sex.
Safe Sex Resource
Are you worried
about protecting yourself during sex but don't know how? Have
you hoped to stumble on a reliable website that you could
research safe sex and get the best references? Do you want to
get your questions answered but are too embarrassed to ask?
Safe Sex Information
In today's
world, there is no question that one of the best places to
find safe sex information is the internet. Although you may
trust your healthcare providers opinion, they are not always
available for quick questions and hard facts. No one has the
time to go to the doctor every time they have a question about
sex and many times, people are simply too embarrassed to ask
their healthcare giver questions for fear of feeling like an
STD Dummy.
Is All
At Your
Fingertips!
With so many
websites popping up that are being designed and/or written by
doctors, you can find information on almost any question or
problem you may have. Sites made by organizations such as
Planned Parenthood, ASHA and The CDC are filled with safe sex
information. There is no limit to the knowledge you can
acquire.
In today's
world, everyone is worried about their active sex drive
ruining their lives. No one wants to give up sex, but everyone
wants to be safe. That is why a wave of doctors and volunteers
are concerned with peoples general well being are publishing
free information on how to protect yourself. Everything from
books and literature to videos and pictures are at your
disposal and are no more than a mouse click away.
Regardless of
what you want to know about, you can learn. Sex is easy to
make safe with little effort. So be smart and read all you can
on safe sex information.
Safe Sex Guide
Do you want to
know a simple safe sex guide that will help answer anyone's
questions within a few paragraphs? Do you want to know what
the simple rules are to remaining free of STD's and pregnancy?
The lines for having safe sex are easy to comprehend and
logical in matter.
A Simplified Safe Sex Guide
There are two
types of sexual relationships; monogamous and non monogamous.
No matter how healthy and free from STD's anyone says they
are, or how many times she tells you she is on birth control,
use a condom! Condoms help prevent STD's and unwanted
pregnancies. There have been many cases where birth
control pills fail due to antibiotic use or a handful of other
reasons. Don't take the chance, cover yourself!
If you are not
in a steady relationship, you better cap your soldier. But, if
you are monogamous and you know that your partner is too, then
the rules change slightly to accommodate the individual
relationship needs. Condoms are still great tools in safe sex,
but if you truly trust your partner and their word pertaining
to your risk, then there are alternatives intended to only
protect against pregnancies.
For the truthful
and faithful couple, female condoms and spermicides work well
in pregnancy protection. They give you the added sensation of
feeling your partner, but have limited protection. So follow
the safe sex guide and remember, you and your partner pay if
you stray from the rules.
Safe Sex Education
Not everyone
received an education in safe sex when they were in school.
There are people that think that pulling out will
prevent pregnancies. There are people that don't realize that
STD's are life-long and health threatening. There are
actually people that believe that you can tell if a person has
an STD just by looking at their outward appearance! The
very founder of this site used to be one of "those people"
until she became one of those people living with an STD due to
the infidelities of her former spouse. So keep that in
mind, the next time you think to yourself "they look like
their clean!"
Safe Sex Education should be FOREMOST in everyone's life!
If you are
sexually active, you should know the ramifications of your own
actions. If you have unprotected sex just once with
one partner, you have swapped fluids with
every person your partner has been with. If you think that you
cannot get infected or pregnant on you first time, you
couldn't be more wrong.
You are
susceptible to any negative result that sex might cause each
time you do it without protection. Condoms are the absolute
best answer to protecting yourself, no matter who is teaching
your safe sex education. Condoms will help prevent life long,
and even life threatening diseases.
On top of
keeping your body healthy, you need to worry about unwanted
pregnancies. Sex is a great pleasure but can have horrible
consequences if you and your partner are not prepared to raise
a child. Who thought something that feels so good could have
the potential to make your life so bad. Make sure you are up
to date on your safe sex education because otherwise, you
will be paying the consequences.
Safe Anal Sex
When most people
think of safe sex, they think of traditional penal/vaginal
sex. Protection is essential for every sex act,
including oral and anal sex. Disease is easily spread
through anal sex so it is absolutely essential to use the
proper protection.
Safe Oral Sex
Many people
often consider oral sex to be "safer" than other methods of
sex. That is completely not true. Without safe oral sex, you
can still spread or contract sexually transmitted diseases.
You can experience a higher level of satisfaction if you
participate in safe oral sex because your mind will be free
from the worries surrounding the risk of STD's.
Safe Oral Sex - The Basics
In order to
engage in safe oral sex, you need the right protection.
Condoms are the best product to use on the penis for oral sex.
Dental dams should be used when oral sex is performed on
females.
Herpes is the
most commonly spread disease when it comes to oral sex. If
someone has Herpes Simplex Virus I, which is oral herpes, it
can be transmitted to the genital area during oral sex. As
herpes is currently incurable, don't take this risk; practice
safe oral sex every time.
You can purchase
all your oral sex protection via the Internet. At
Condomania, you can find all the condoms and dental dams you
need without leaving the privacy, comfort and convenience of
your own home or office.
Oral Sex Risks
Many people
truly believe the myth that there is no risk in oral sex. They
truly believe that you cannot contract any diseases and that
it is a safe way to pleasure your partner. It's time to put an
end to that particular myth!
Realize the Risks of Oral Sex
Just because
there is no genital-to-genital contact or penetrative sex,
does not mean that you cannot suffer some of the same
consequences. There are many diseases, such as herpes, that
can infect the mouth. When you are getting or giving oral sex,
you can contract it to either area. Herpes type 1 is not
just hanging out in the oral region anymore and Herpes type 2
doesn't always prefer to set up home below the belt.
These viruses ARE crossing barriers and you can get them from
oral sex!
STD's do travel
in other fashions than through straight sex.
Plus, although
it is rare but not impossible, you can get and give AIDS
though oral sex. If you or your partner has a cut in your
mouth, you can get and give AIDS through white blood cells
emitted from the mouth. All it would take is your
partner having brushed their teeth too hard or bit into a chip
the wrong way, if they have HIV then BOOM you ARE exposed!
Don't be a
Dummy! Get Smart and Stay Safe!
