Have you ever had to let somebody in on some bad news?
Like, you are really in trouble for taking Mom’s car last night and putting a dent in the side, and leaving a hooker in the back seat.
Or
You really think you are that good looking….honey, if you think you can get something in all your 80’s, ratted hairstyle glory, with Blue peacock eyeshadow and punk rock boots from the Cinderella concert of 1988, then you go for it.
How about…
Dude, you where with this girl last night and this morning, we took him home after a game of HORSE!
Whatever the case may be, this season I believe will shape up to be a good time to do inexcusable things and make several bad decisions, that you will regret for a lifetime. I just have to point out that safe sex is a priority. Some people will get sex as a gift on Christmas (or Festivus)…and some people will just fall into it like a pig in slop, on New Year’s Eve.
Just Steve has some safe sex advice (basically for condom use) for all of you during this festive season….
Here's How:
1. If he says: "It ruins the mood."
How to respond: "Having unsafe sex puts me out of the mood. For good!"
2. If his excuse is: "A condom spoils my enjoyment of sex.”
How to respond: “I can't enjoy sex unless we’re protected.”
3. If he says: "If you really love me, you should trust me."
How to respond: “It is because I love you that I want to be sure we’re both protected.”
4. If he complains: "I can’t feel anything when I’m wearing a condom.”
How to respond: “Many condoms have extra features to actually make sex better, and that you will both be better able to relax knowing you are safeguarding yourselves against STD’s and unintended pregnancy. Plus, men can actually experience more pleasure with a ribbed condom than without one at all.”
5. If he says: "Condoms don’t really work; most of them get busted."
How to respond: "If we use it the right way, its 98% effective."
6. If his excuse is: "Wearing a condom is uncomfortable."
How to respond: Suggest a different brand or size.
Or, if you are feeling a bit feisty, you could come back with, "Yes, and so is being pregnant for 9 months and then having to give birth."
7. If he says: "Don’t tell me that you actually think you’ll catch something from me."
How to respond: "I’m sure I won’t, but it's better to be safe than sorry."
8. If his objection is: “But you’re on the pill.”
How to respond: "The pill won’t protect us from STD’s that we may not even know we have – a condom will give us that protection.”
9. If he insists: “But we’ve had sex without a condom before.”
How to respond: “That that was a bad decision, and I don’t want to make it again. We were lucky, and I am not chancing it again.”
10. If his excuse is: "I don't know how to use a condom the right way."
How to respond: "I’ll do it for you."
To convince him even further, use your mouth!
Here’s something good about what "men" say to women...(as if pee-wee):
If a man says that he is “too large” to fit into a condom, open one up, put your hands together (like you’re clapping), roll the condom over your hands, then spread them apart about 12 inches wide – ask him if he is bigger than that then you are not human or you better go find someone else!
