Would You Date A Porn Star?

[Mr. Laser Beam]

^ This is one of the reasons I lead such a sheltered life. I guess there's an upside to being a 40-year-old virgin after all!

 

[RoJoHen]

I can't say I'm onboard with that assessment.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

Why not? Can't catch an STD if you don't have S.

 

[RoJoHen]

Yeah, but plenty of people manage to have lots of sex without contracting diseases.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

Still quite a bit of risk though. The fact that there still *are* STDs would tend to bear that out. If it was that easy to protect against them, why do people still get them?

Because people are stupid and drink a lot.

you're right, you should never have sex for fear of something bad happening.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

Because people are stupid and drink a lot.

You got that right.

 

[RoJoHen]

So there ya go. Just don't have sex when you're wasted.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

^ But some people are just dumb even when stone cold sober.

And besides: Condoms aren't 100% effective, are they?

Because condoms aren't fun?

meh...'fun' is too often used as an excuse to do things that are very stupid and/or risky. I'm not saying sex is always that, but it could be.

 

[RoJoHen]

If you're responsible about it (since I don't see you going out and banging the first random chick you run into), you would be aware of whether your partner has an STD in the first place, and both of you, as adults, would discuss ways to prevent her from passing it on to you.


Or you could wear 2 or 3 condoms! She could have sex with you, and you'd totally oblivious!

Assuming *she* knows. They don't always know, do they? (or, if they do, how can you be sure they'll tell you?)

Well, I was attempting to talk about you, specifically. I have a feeling you're not going to be sleeping with someone you don't love and trust. And if she feels the same for you, she would tell you.

 

[JonathonWally]

Words to live by: "Don't poke random people unless you know what you're getting into"

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

True dat.

And if she feels the same for you, she would tell you.

Conversely, if she doesn't, then she won't...

 

[RoJoHen]

Conversely, if she doesn't, then she won't...

And eventually you have to take that chance, otherwise what's the point of it all? Any girl you start a relationship with is not going to stay with you if you refuse to sleep with her on the chance that they might not love you and might be keeping her dark STD secret from you.

I mean, really, if that's how you're approaching this, you're in for a lonely life.

 

[Australis]

Can't live your life worried about everything, dude.

As the saying goes, feel the fear, and do it anyway.

 

[RJDiogenes]

Laugh in the face of fear. Ha ha!

Besides, if you dip your penis in orange juice before sex, you're immune to STDs for the duration. Really. It's homeopathic.
