    Not my kind of thing, but people should be able to have whatever fun they want with their bodies as long as they’re not hurting anyone.

      Devils advocate - promiscuous behavior can cause harm to others with the spread of stds unwanted pregnancies etc. (fyi I agree with you but this is the general argument against it)

        Yeah but it’s manageable. Everyone in our community tests every 3 months, I also have the VPH vaccine.

        The only one time I came close was 2 years ago, a friend called me and said she had gonorrea and I had to get tested. I didn’t have it but the chance was low anyway because I never have intercourse without condom. Even in relationships I don’t. I only do oral without. Condoms don’t bother me and I like the slightly reduced sensitivity so I can go longer and edging becomes easier. I even use condoms with toys.

        The HPV vaccine I did want to get because it’s high risk now, there’s two variants which often cause cancer. And condoms don’t fully prevent it.

        So anyway it’s very manageable if you’re not careless.
