    You know we can test for those things now, right? As long as everyone remains faithful to their partners its not an issue.

    If 300 people all get tested and are clean, they can all get together every night for a massive orgy and there is zero STI risk. As long as none of them sleep with anyone outside of the group that hasn’t been tested.

        I don’t know how healthcare works where you live, but here you can. Its free, no questions asked. Get the results a couple of weeks later.

        Er? You absolutely can do an STI screen without symptoms. Some of the most common STIs don’t even usually have symptoms.

            LOL. I know that’s how it works because I’ve done it several times.

                Usually the screenings are pretty thorough. I’ve gotten one at least once a year (usually 6 months) for as long as I’ve been an adult.

                    From clinic to clinic might be different but even just a basic screening at Planned Parenthood tests for like 8 different things so no, pretty thorough is saying exactly enough and you’re just being stubborn.

                    You give the exact “it’s just a little herpes” vibes that you mention elsewhere. Why else would you fight everyone so hard when EVERYONE is telling you it’s very easy to get tested for the whole host of most common STIs on the regular?
