It's nothing to be ashamed about. I personally haven't. But I think the lack of people that talk about it or ashamed about it prevents others from talking and getting help. I think the key thing is to remember you only have to sleep with one person to get an STI. Have you had one? Was it hard to talk to friends and family about? How did you feel? How long did it take to clear up and was treatment easy to get?
i never have lucky me i think its because of the whole not doing one night stand thing so i think that helped
I'm surprised I haven't had one because I've been really silly in the past but thankfully I haven't I get checked once a year now especially because I'm not madly sexually active like I used to be now.
I havent had one but have had a few checks for them. I was raped and didnt know if the guy had or not and with no protection used either it was terrifying
I must say that I am grateful that I have not yet experienced any kind of sexually related diseases in my years of being sexually active. Right now, I am living a celibate life so my risk is quite low compared in the past. These days we really have to be very careful because just what we see does not always mean safe. A lot of people are now exposed to sexually induced diseases so rate of infections are really increasing at alarming rate.
I thought I had one but it turned out to be scratch marks from when my cat dug her claws into me. Whew! I always wrap it up, and wouldn't touch a girl who didn't want me to.
