Doctors told me condoms aren't as reliable as people think but their safer than raw and the percentage of protection isn't really that high so he they scared me but whatever.

He's probably right when it comes to some stds. The condom only covers a small part of you, so anywhere else down there where there is skin contact can transmit stuff like crabs that can be on the surface anywhere down there.

But aids requires fluid transfer. Skin contact isn't enough.

Good thing is a big joke to you all, when people are dying everyday in this community, how much do condoms protect against hiv?

[Teydyn]

They do.

Maybe not 100%, but very close.

Maybe people are just using the wrong ones, this style protects more:




But seriously, I think we under estimate how many people DON'T use them all the time. All it takes is one time w/out them, and you're screwed... if your unlucky enough it could even be on your first time having sex.

I wonder where this doctor is on the political spectrum. A lot of right-wing types support abstinence education in schools where all they do is badmouth condoms. Given the negative attitude about condoms, I imagine that warnings like this could easily spread from the schoolhouse to the doctor's office.
