A person with no emotional attachment may not be motivated to tell the truth. Therefore, taking time to get to know a partner is a good way to ensure your own sexual health. In order to have protected sex, both partners need to agree on what practices they will engage in and under what circumstances. Otherwise, one partner may not cooperate and may undermine the other person's resolve. It is wise to remember that not making a decision is a decision in itself.
Protected sex is one of life's important decisions.
A thoughtful decision-making process that examines the advantages of all options should be used. Permission is granted to reproduce for educational non-commercial uses if this message is shown.
