I didn’t know how to articulate this, but I had these thoughts for a while. I’ve always heard about it like a whisper in the wind. That having sex without a condom is signifying one is ready for the next step in the relationship. How dumb. It signifies that you are ready for a disease or a child. I am also torn between whether condom use should continue in marriage. Of course, when you’re married you should be in a monogamous relationship, but if a wife feels her husband is out there, start wearing condoms again, especially if you continue to have sex with him. It’s a given, because having an affair isn’t always neat and nice. The only people who should be having sex with no condoms are those who are in a monogamous MARRIED relationship. If you live together and it’s all good, you should still wear one. This may make you walk down the aisle a lot quicker, too 
See the article on NPR.
Crazy times…
And even if you wait to have unprotected sex until you’re married, you still need to take him to the doctor and get checked. remember…he did have a past before you. just because you’re married now doesnt mean he’s disease free. im pretty sure he’s had unprotected sex with others.
I totally agree with this post, hence this is the reason why I have NEVER had sex without a condom and refuse to ever do so until I get married. My significant other knows the deal. I have well informed him that “hittin it raw” is reserved for my husband. So until we make it down the aisle he better not even think about it.
Beyond my existent phobia of STDs & children out of wedlock, this all goes back to the old-aged adage: why would a man buy the cow when he can get the milk for free?
I have a friend that recently ended a new relationship. The man she was dating kept “forgetting” condoms. She offered to supply them but he insisted that he’d take care of it. After a few go rounds and her not giving in, she finally realized that it was more about power than his “bad memory”. I can’t believe that men think they can get away with that.
There are so many myths people believe about love because they are so empty.
Lets talk about bring old school sex education back. Lets talk to women, men and young people about condoms, std’s contraceptives and the whole package.
IT IS WRONG! I will never let a man do that to me. It is selfish. Condoms all the way until the BIG DAY!
I only do this with my woman if we have been together for some time. I dont want to use condoms any longer than a year with someone.
i always thought it meant he loved me more; now i got 2 kids!
