Sexually Transmitted Diseases

Well I guess I will start under the Sex and Dating since I’m the expert. In between The Hills marathon this weekend, I noticed numerous commercials for STD testing. I understand the campaign – After the initial campaign in 2009, 10 different closely watched Planned Parenthood clinics in different regions saw a 25-percent uptick in STD testing. But what happens after? Most don’t tell their sex partner or practice safe sex. It’s not only about testing, but practicing safe sex and being responsible and selfless enough to not infect others. Won’t happen. You can get tested all your want. The epidemic will not end until people tell they’re partners they are infected. What are the odds that will happen? That is why you need to be smart and protect yourself, use a condom.
