What is safer sex?
Safer sex involves protecting yourself from getting a sexually transmitted disease (STD) during sex play. Any sex play which involves skin-to-skin contact is not completely risk free, but there are ways to reduce those risks.
How can we practice safer sex?
• Understand and be honest about the risks we take.
• Keep our bodily fluids (blood, pre-cum, semen, vaginal fluid) out of each other's bodies.
• Always use male or female condoms for anal or vaginal intercourse.
• Always use condoms or other latex barriers for oral sex.
• Don't have sex play when we have a sore or outbreak caused by a sexually transmitted disease (STD).
• Find ways to make safer sex as pleasurable as possible.
Why have safer sex?
• Because it reduces our risk of getting an STD
• Because it reduces anxiety and fear about getting or transmitting an STD
• Because it reduces our risk of unplanned pregnancy
• Because there are many other sexual activities to engage in besides intercourse that can be fun and intimate
• Because it can be very pleasurable and exciting
