I can't believe i have to say this AGAIN but if you and your partner are too uncomfortable to talk about proper protection then you probably shouldn't have sex.
One of my friends just found out she's pregnant and when i asked her if she was even using protection (bc i had spent a good amount of time helping her find ways to get condoms free/low price and educate her on safe sex) she said no bc "it weirded us out to talk about it."
If you can't (or won't) communicate what you're going to be using to protect each other from pregnancy/STIs then what are you doing?
The amount of girls that i've sat down with and talked about safe sex and the resources available to them bc their own mothers wouldn't is ridiculous. I've heard it all. "They're expensive" no theyre not a box of like 30 condoms is $10 at best. You can get some free at your health office at college (we went to the same one so i know this for a fact.) I'll fucking buy them for you.
"It doesn't feel the same" there's hardly any difference and i'd rather have it feel a little different than risk an unwanted pregnancy. Find a condom that works for you, there's a large variety.
"But he pulls out." How long before he can't pull out?
"Talking about it grosses him out." Then maybe y'all shouldn't be fucking.
Already 4 girls have gotten pregnant bc of these excuses. We talked in great length about how important it is to protect themselves and their partners and it makes me so sad and mad.
