Bath ish

If all sexual deseases and perhaps the common cold could be prevented WOULD that make a difference to sexual attitudes

There is just one reason why sti s are still a risk and why most insist on condoms

It would still leave plenty of room for other diseases and infections, but I'm certain people's attitudes would loosen up.

Yes but as has been mentioned at length a vaccine is not 100% effective so precautions would still be needed.

Many vaccines are very close to 100% and certainly much higher effectiveness than many types of contraception.

Most (not all) are happy to take those substantially minimsed risks.

The only 100% assured way to avoid infection is to abstain. Sex by it's very nature is a bit messy

Therefore, anything that lowers the risk would be a good thing.

However as we are talking about so many different types of infection here, one vaccine would be very unlikely to protect you from everything.

If vaccines plural existed to reduce risk of/prevent STIs plural, I'd take vaccines plural.

And still insist on condoms in a casual context.

If we treat it like Covid and ban sexual contact for 2 years and have everyone tested repeatedly then that would solve everything.

Orrr would it

Better to find an immunisation than a vaccine. 100% effective then

The Terence Higgins Trust did have a "break the chain" campaign during lockdown to encourage getting tested and (if positive) starting treatment for HIV

We would still use condoms as there is no mention of stopping unwanted pregnancies. I have the implant but still insist on condoms as an extra protection.

I paid to have the HPV vaccine privately as didn’t qualify for it under NHS, gives me a bit of reassurance that my risk is lowered. Would sign up for herpes and hiv vaccines if they were available. If I could have those I’d go crazy and go riding a new cock every day!

I hate using a condom, but it has to be done!!!

I would only consider bareback once some trust has been built and if we were non-exclusive FWBs or FBs, only with regular testing - you can't be too careful these days!!

Haha! This made me laugh

But I totes agree I’d so have the HIV one in particular. I feel Prep is kinda heavy on the body so I’m hoping they will have a vaccine eventually x
