Do you prefer sex with a condom or without? Rating Options

For a question that may seem like it would have obvious answers, things don't always turn out that way.

to me, using a condom is all about not catching something, instead of not getting pregnant. if youre having sex its because youre ready to deal with the consequences of possibly getting pregnant. i mean you wanna have a kid after you get married not before

sure people dont care either way.

i prefer not using one and have been with the same guy for 2 years. plus condoms are very uncomfortable.

So you're having sex, I assume. Does that mean you're ready to be a mom? And getting an STI is a consequence of having sex. Does that mean when you have sex you are ready to deal with having HIV? Just because you choose to have sex does not mean you are ready to deal with the consequences it might pose. You accept the risks but that does not in any way mean you're are willing to take them on.

I hate to break it to you. But people may cheat. So you might be with the same guy for 2 years but he might not have been with the same girl for those times. And also hate to break it to you, no matter how long you've been with someone, the chances of getting pregnant are still the same for a 2 year or a 2 week relationship if you don't use protection (birth control and/or condom): 17-20% each sack session.

I understand completely. Besides, you shouldn't be having sex with someone u met two weeks ago. If you're that worried, you should both get tested TOGETHER so that way you know you're safe, without making you partner go alone and feel as though you think they have aids/hiv or any other STD. Also, many stds are not protected from by condoms [ if that makes since ]. The Human Papilloma Virus [HPV] which is the most common STD, isn't censored by condoms because a condom cant protect your entire dick, sack, etc.

Of all the STIs in the world, HPV should be the least of your worries. It is one of the rare ones that can go away on its own without leaving incredible amounts of damage. Also, it is spread mainly from skin to skin contact. So if someone's hands touches their genitals and then touches someone else's genitals, HPV can still get spread. Is that your excuse for not wearing a condom? Cause it doesn't completely prevent against 1 STI so you might as well ignore the other 10?

Im not saying that you should ignore wearing condoms. Im just saying condoms aren't as effective for preventing STDs as getting tested and sticking to one partner. I'd rather have sex with one individual who I know is disease free and I can go w/o a condom, than to have sex with multiple people who I barely know and use condoms that aren't effective enough in preventing many dangerous STDs. Im not bashing condoms, Im just saying my opinion.
