Should it be a standard practice?
There is news and stories of people not giving a shit and intentionally spreading HIV/AIDs - with the dating scene very coated with "hook-up" culture... doesn't it scare you?
Share your thoughts.
I would not get tested if someone asked me to, and I would break off whatever it is that I had with the person at that point in time.
I can't have an STD, which should be apparent from my sexual beliefs, and if someone questions whether I'm telling the truth, they are not only not trusting me, but they are also seemingly accepting to be with someone who may be lying about their sexual beliefs, and that's not someone who I want to be with.
My partner has to match me in my sexual beliefs, without exceptions.
I would respect her more if she did that. You can never be too careful!
I'd never ask a stranger for documentation because I wouldn't have sex with a stranger. I'm not the hookup type of person. And that's mainly because of my fear of STD's. I'll do anything to avoid them! Like the time my sister's friend came into my room and wanted to have sex with me. I could have lost my virginity right there. I was very attracted to her, but even if she had condoms, I didn't know her at all. I don't regret turning her down either. Sex is cool and all, but no amount of steaminess will make me ignore my fears.
Nope, not at all. That way, everyone would know who is safe and who is not, right off the bat. It would also eliminate some of the disease spreading.
Not at all because I know am clean and I can prove it
You can't trust no one
@Asker no

I’d be stoked because I’m clean and would be able to ask her the same. I do think it should be the standard because an std can ruin your life. Literally. Some of them sterilize you.
I always wear condoms even if the girl is on birth control. Mostly because I only want to put my sperm inside a woman who I’d marry. Recently though I’ve considered safe oral sex too because of what you just written.
Some people don’t give a shit and will give you a disease.
I wouldn’t be offended at all. I had a scare once. I was dating a guy and had sex several times with him (no condom). I found out later he had genital herpes. I was petrified and later got tested. Luckily I didn’t catch it. So yeah, I’d be fine if he asked for a test.
I think if you are going to have unprotected sex with someone it shouldn't be frowned upon to get checked and to show the results to your partner.
There is nothing wrong with it, but the problem is that unless you're sure the person isn't having any sexual contact after the test, you still can't be sure. They could take the test, then have unprotected sex with an infected person.
Sex is the greatest contact sport, but you shouldn't have sex with someone unless you have a basic level of trust.
Not at all. This is a good precaution. You want to make sure the guy you're going to have sex with hasn't had sex with an animal, a hooker without a condom or Donald Trump. Better safe than sorry.
I wouldn't be offended by it... thats a good thing to know... and not just for aids... im scared of herpes just as much
Yeah it can... the ones you can cure with pills isn't the end of the world but i just feel better knkwing my dick isn't blowing snot
We should be responsible for our own health and safety I guess being honest an acceptable is the key to help each other against the unstoppable virus going around its better safe than sorry I guess
nope pretty standard thing to get tested before sex
I've done that in the past. It probably wouldn't make sense to this generation though.
That would disqualify the large population that have HIV from infecting the clean population anymore. That's a good idea.
No, not really.
And yes, that would be scary.
I have faith in my judgement of character though.
If should be standart
No. That means she is smart.
nah i would totally understand
