The only drawback, unfortunately, is having STD test before penetration or wearing a raincoat to minimize the two way pleasure.

I don’t remember where I spoke about STD tests before on my blog, so I’ll repeat it here.

STD Testing is absolutely worthless as soon as that person has sex AFTER the test. The only thing that proves is whether or not they were clean 6 months ago or whenever they went to the clinic.

So it’s not only important to get tested, but it’s even MORE IMPORTANT to have a rapport with the other person where you believe with an excellent percentage chance of it being true that the reason they got tested was to prove to you that they’re clean and they have every intention of being sexually exclusive with you until they verbally inform you that they’re not.

The trust between the people that each is looking out for the other’s welfare is more important than a piece of paper indicating someone’s physical state sometime in the past.

Once you make that commitment, honor it. But if you cannot, leave it, before you transmit to someone who’s innocent.

Absolutely agreed. In a perfect world, everyone would abide by this. The world isn’t perfect.

As far as an on-site STD test, that would be FANTASTIC!!! :D hahaha Whomever invented that would be RICH, RICH, RICH!!! :D

If you are fortunate to find someone who have most to the things in them you want, might be time to park yourself and enjoy the rest of your life free of that threat.

I personally believe that monogamy is prompted by that very feeling/situation of being fortunate enough to have found someone that inspires you to only have sex with them.

Interestingly enough (to me at least, haha), I don’t find “I hooked up with you exclusively so I can have sex without catching any diseases” very romantic. o_O

I think the romantic part, and what should drive people in all relationships, is that the other person inspires them to be a certain type of person for and towards them. The monogamy has to come from an actual constant and consistent physical desire towards the other person, not the “business” of avoiding STDs. If that’s the case, the next person that’s deemed to be STD-free is just as good to have sex with and so is the next person. Where does it end? I don’t believe that wanting to stay clean is a good OR an effective way to create/enforce monogamy.

… In this age of scripted living.

Yes. Life is very scripted. It’s pretty annoying to watch people follow the script instead of doing what they naturally feel like doing. That’s where “game” comes in.. Removing people from their scripts long enough to get real life to occur before returning them to their previously-scheduled programming…

Thanks for the comments! :D

The only drawback, unfortunately, is having STD test before penetration or wearing a raincoat to minimize the two way pleasure. Now you have either contract it or you are a carrier. Dawn shucks. What to do, what to do…

I’m in total agreement with playing the field before one decides to become monogamous. Learn your body and the opposite sex body as well. Bring experience into the union. And like you, once you make that commitment, honor it. But if you cannot, leave it, before you transmit to someone who’s innocent. What a dilemma. I cannot ask every woman, or in case of a woman to a man, for a medical card to verify that they have no STD. Or seek out a medical kit to test them myself. You might blow the moment.

All in all, be careful out there. And if you are fortunate to find someone who have most to the things in them you want, might be time to park yourself and enjoy the rest of your life free of that threat.

Keep it coming Bill, no pun intended, I enjoy your thought provocating and hearing a free person speak. In this age of scripted living.

Cheers! :D
