Sexual Freedom

Image

A friend of mine was reading my last blog and he said that I should elaborate on the concept that I was speaking on when I mentioned "I used to think that I would never be able to have sex without a condom. Imagine going through your adolescent years thinking that if you had intercourse with someone or received oral sex without protection that you would pass the virus." I spoke about never really being able to experience sexual freedom, and about not being able to love without fear.

I have always thought that most people who grew up negative probably didn't worry about not being able to be sexually free as much as I did. I imagined that most people knew what it was like to have sex without a condom, and didn’t worry about it as much as I did. And that especially with straight guys, if they were concerned about wearing condoms it was more so because they didn’t want to get a girl pregnant, as opposed to catching an STI. But hey, I might be wrong.
