So you, uh... wanna do it?

As college moves on and sexual temptation seems to grow, I have recently found some evidence of why safe sex is probably one of the smartest things any of us can practice. Turns out that 63% of all sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) occur among people less than 25. As much as I love gettin' down, I think that wrapping it up should always be done, even though condoms do not protect against human papilloma virus (HPV). And other types of contraception seem to be less reliable too. Percentage of failures of certain types of contraception include 6.2% of the time for the pill, 14.2% of the time for condoms, 15.6% of the time for diaphragms, and 26.3% for spermicide. It seems as though STDs are way too common, and with the bar scene in New Orleans, very few people can be trusted. Apparently, 34% of men and 10% of women have told lies to convince someone to have sex. When in the moment of truth and hormones are flying, it can be hard to be as safe as possible. But we should all keep in mind these high statistics and the risks of random sex. And also, everyone should know that tests are easy and free, so please make sure that you will not pass your own mistake to others.
