It's Monday and that means it is time to bust another myth about sex and/or relationships. 

I have heard many myths in my time, but this one is my absolute favorite.  'Guys hate wearing condoms'.  Seriously?  The only men that hate wearing condoms are the men that are either uneducated or don't respect you. 

It gets even better now that technology has made more condom options available to you.  You have condoms that are for the sensitive man/woman (you know the ones that say their skin gets irritated from the latex).  There are sheep skin condoms that are made for those who are allergic to latex.  There are even the thin condoms that feel like they are not even there.  To be honest there is no real reason why anyone (male or female) would not want to wear a condom to protect each other from Sexually transmitted diseases and unplanned pregnancies.

But don't always depend on your partner having the proper protective gear when you are getting ready to engage in the sexual act.  Show him you are serious by having condoms on hand.  The amazing thing about this day and age is the amount of information available to us.  There is really no excuse for being niave in the matter of sex.

Be prepared and ready.  Choose life free of sexually transmitted diseases and choose to have children when you want them.  A condom is not 100% effective but it definetly gives you better odds. 

For fun check how many sexual partners you have had (directly and indirectly).  Use this link to try out the online calculator.
