Lifestyle people really do rock
Lifestyle people really do rock One thing that was always a pain in my ass was the whole STD/STI testing thing. The average reaction is "I'm not dirty, why would I get tested?", or "I'm not a slut, I don't need to be tested" (someone I'm chatting with online about hooking up for random sex). Since I/we got away from messing with vanilla people, even the BIFs, it has been a totally different experience. Now people in the lifestyle are even more open minded about it than many who are poly. The last 3 people I asked about testing that were outside my preferred window immediately got tested. No bitching, no excuses, just done. An added bonus is having a doctor that doesn't make an issue of it. I went in for another issue and mentioned I needed my screening and she didn't bat a single pretty eyelash (my Dr is kinda hot ), just asked if I wanted the full screening and we were done. It comes down to being mature responsible adults. If you are going to be sexually active, you *need* to be responsible for your own health, and in turn for the impact your health may have on those people you are with, be they regular partners or not. I feel just as responsible to the women I have just started seeing as I am to my wives for knowing my STI status. If someone is unwilling to get a simple test I won't touch them, no matter who they are or how drop dead OMFG hott they are. Period. |
