How would you feel if someone you were dating asked you to get tested for an STD? Would you be offended? Would you be down to get tested?
Nah, sis. I have a rule that I ask all new partners to show me somekind of certificate or receipt that they are diseasefree - so I would be DELIGHTED if a Sister showed me that kind of responsibility and asked the same. Seriously, who has time to get an STD? It's scary fam (I might be saying that because I never had one, but still...) Also, what if you give it to your kids/next partner someday? And it is mad disgraceful to have to sit down every potential sex-partner before you penetrate and explain that 'uuuhh... I got this thing'. GAH-ROSE. (gross lol). A relation I know hooked up with a white man (boo!), fell head over heels (he's so nice to me pffft) and you know what happened? She got a variety of something called HPV (human papilomma fam). It's like genital warts, and it was CHRONIC. It took me like 10 minutes to digest her problem: it will NEVER go away and ALWAYS resurface no matter what kind of medicine she got. Oh shiiiiii This could happen regardless of what complexion your partner is. Imagine meeting a nice person, intelligent and sensitive and all that - and then you decide to just 'go for it' one of the nights you both agree to sleep together. Then BANG, you got burned and contracted a nasty germ that makes you smell, itch or what-have-you :'( Dang... all that for prematurely trusting your new bedmate. I had a child by not planning ahead and trusting a Sister, but that was an untimely BLESSING that I will always be happy to have in my life. Can one say the same when one gets a lifelong STD? Heh, I wish a Sister would get mad at me for asking. Let her go and sleep with someone else then. One, - Ikoro ps.: And admittedly, I am a tad irresponsible and prefer my intimacy raw - so my partners and I must operate on a strict trust. Am not taking chances when it comes to the people I love.
I would say, we should both get tested Unless you were telling me I needed to be tested because you tested positive
