Does the fear of pregnancy and/or STDs make you less likely to engage in casual sex?
mistixsInfluencer
If you're gay or bi, then answer regarding whether fear of STDs makes you less likely to engage in casual sex with people of your OWN gender (one of the last 3 options). If you're straight, then answer regarding whether pregnancy and/or fear of STDs makes you less likely to engage in casual sex with people of the opposite gender.
I wouldn't want to engage in casual sex, even if unwanted pregnancy and/or STDs didn't exist.
Vote A
I'm straight. Fear of pregnancy and/or STDs does NOT make me less likely to engage in casual sex.
Vote B
I'm straight. Fear of pregnancy and/or STDs makes me somewhat/considerably less likely to engage in casual sex.
Vote C
I'm straight. Fear of pregnancy and/or STDs makes me much less likely to engage in casual sex, /OR/ it makes it so that I don't engage in casual sex at all.
Vote D
I'm bi or gay. Fear of STDs does NOT make me less likely to engage in casual sex (with people of my own gender).
Vote E
I'm bi or gay. Fear of STDs makes me somewhat/considerably less likely to engage in casual sex (with people of my own gender)
Vote F
I'm bi or gay. Fear of STDs makes me much less likely to engage in casual sex, /OR/ it makes it so that I don't engage in casual sex at all (with people of my own gender)
Our contraceptive technology is good enough to make the risk of unwanted pregnancy virtually negligible. People just have to actually USE them. If you're currently taking antibiotics, add a backup (like condoms for example).
As for STDs: They're called condoms. And the various rationales for not using them are just asinine.

Condoms don't prevent all STD's. You can contract STD's like herpes from kissing and oral sex

@Warmapplecrumble That's the whole problem with this casual sex. Even with condom, if you're kissing multiple people or performing oral sex with multiple people and so are they. That's some scary shit. I ain't kissing anyone I don't know where their mouth all been and I sure don't putting no fuck in my mouth that been in someone else's pussy a couple days before, period! And HPV is another STD people can have and not even realize they have, so someone could tell you they have no STD'S and not necessarily be lying ass much as not aware. We it it's better to save it for a monogamous long term relationship with a trustworthy partner

I'm straight and have engaged in casual sex more than committed relationships over the years bareback. Majority of the time I've known the woman's most recent STI check-up status before sleeping together and other times taken risks by simply building a level of trust with a woman without either or one of us being tested recently beforehand.
I'm not overly concerned about pregnancy as half of the women were on birth control and the other half were not so relied on the pull-out method to avoid pregnancy.

I don't really care about pregnancy. I wear condoms and I also bring Plan B just in case. I'm always prepared. However, I also don't engage in casual sex. When I talk to people, they say, "Since I wore a condom, I'm safe from STDs." That's false. Even with a condom, there's 3 STDs you can STILL get:
-Herpes -Syphyillis -HPV
Herpes is actually the easiest to get. Just a little skin to skin contact with someone who is infected, and you got it too! When you have sex, the shaft of your penis is covered, but your ball sack isn't... so when that's rubbing up against the vagina during sex, herpes can be passed. Many people don't seem to know that.
That is how my best friend got herpes. He was with a girl who gave him a blow job (with no condom) and he had sex with her (with a condom). However, he got HSV2, which is herpes of the genitals, so he more than likely got it through sex and not the blow job.

The fear of STD's and pregnancy does somewhat scare me from having casual sex. Mostly pregnancy if the girl isn't on birth control and the condom breaks.

What is casual sex? I mean in the beginning wether is "casual" or "orchestrated" the person with the std has to let you know or you have to ask. Ironically it always feels casual at first in the sense it's new and awkward. It's not till round 3 or 4 any true erotica pleasure is achieved. So I think the question should be Do you have the will power to ask another person regardless, And would you believe them.
