Condoms

So, why use condoms and other barriers?

In a nutshell:

• 1. Because it can help you to get closer
• 2. Because bare backing isn’t as cool as you think.
• 3. Because chances are good that eventually, you’re going to either have to use condoms or knowingly be putting partners or yourself at a high risk of infection.
• 4. Because it pays it forward.
• 5. Because it feels good.
• 6. Because it helps you learn to be truthful in and with your sexuality and about sexuality in general.
• 7. Because it can keep you from proving people right who say you don’t have the maturity or the ability to have sex responsibly.
• 8. Because if you’re male, you can help to show men are better than the lowest common denominator.
• 9. Because being unassertive really isn’t sexy.
• 10. Because I love you.
