"If you have sex, you will get an STD/pregnant" - Who is spreading this nonsense?

I think it's the sex education at the moment... In my day we just had a bearded man put a condom on a cucumber... which was a shame, because whenever I got together with a girl that wanted to sleep with me, I never had a cucumber with me... Luckily, at the age of 31, I've now realised what the cucumber represents...

Yes, just don't be stupid and you'll be fine.

mostly rubbish but one std in particular is condom proof and will spread and that is herpes.

also no scientist will say that condoms provide 100% protection against pregnancy.

when talking about under age sexual activity not everyone is as capable as you and sometimes condoms are not used properly.

there has been an alarming rise in std spread in the uk in the 16 - 24 age group.

this no doubt has fuelled a lot of hysteria on the subject.

If you can still get pregnant or even worst get a std, then why are condom here? My grandparents told me this same thing when I was growing up but I know better.

Congrats on not having kids, or a std, you must be doing something right!

as I keep in mind, we nonetheless have 4 ineffective people, a video which substitute into blamed debunked as a falsehood, a president and sec. of state whose whereabouts are unknown and a stand down order given. doctored conversing factors and no one in can charge understanding something approximately something. do no longer the families of the ineffective people no longer deserve accountability or no longer less than the actuality approximately what got here approximately? people could be fired if for no longer something entire incompetence and that i do no longer recommend somebody who's leaving or retiring a week from now. I accept as true with the detachment from actuality reason to vote somebody out section, Obama could be impeached. actuality substitute into he knew it substitute right into a terrorist attack and nonetheless blamed the video on the U. N. 2 weeks later. it is previous detachment.

Its just people being extra careful. There are still some std's u can catch even wearing a condom and it could split which could lead to pregnancy.

Condoms have a fail rate of up to 15% and though the actual level of protection they give against STIs is unclear it is estimated to be only around 50%.

To a degree yes, nonsense, however certain infections can be passed on even when wearing a condom simply through skin-skin contact, they, (condoms) are proven to be less effective for STD's transmitted by skin-to-skin contact, such as human papillomavirus (HPV, the cause of genital warts and cervical cancer) and genital herpes. But I agree with you and your commitment to safe sex.

I am sure it comes from some parents, etc. to put the fear of God in young people to abstain from sex altogether.

Just look at all of the single mothers

Correct! If you use condoms then you will be fine.
