STI fears and whether it's valid
Posted: 2026-04-01 09:31:57
Hi everyone, I do like to have new experiences and explore the lovely ladies on this platform. My only gripe is the fear of catching something. I feel like it's unwarranted because of the times I've had with ladies, all has been well (testing always comes back neg). I do want to hopefully explore SMs. Do you feel that the fear is unfounded? Whats your take and experiences?

Yes. Just use protection and you will be fine.

Fellow punter, just because our anatomy is such that havong sex is easy, doesn't mean punting is easy.
Its like an extreme sport and needs all possible safety precautions.

The fear is warranted, condoms wont protect you against hpv, herpes, syphilis, molluscum etc.

Everyone adopts their own risk profile.
Glove up with insertion and consider PEP if you have a very high risk experience e.g. unprotected vaginal or anal.

PROTECTION POLICY
For hygiene and safety reasons, protection is strictly enforced at all times.
No kissing -- this involves the exchange of bodily fluids, and as we are not personally familiar with one another, it poses a risk of STI/STD transmission. Some infections are lifelong and cannot be cured once contracted.
Your safety and WG are equally important, so these boundaries are non-negotiable.

All good to be on Prep as I believe that everyone that is sexually active should be.
However it does not prevent the risk of catching an STI/STD.
Also getting into the habit of not using protection is dangerous. What would happen in the
event you forget to take your tablets and land up sitting with more than just one problem.
So agreed. No glove, no love.
