We here at teensource.org love all our users equally, so no matter who you like or what you do, we want to make sure that you always protect yourselves from STDs!
- Be assertive - even if “everyone” around you is having sex, it doesn’t mean that you have to, especially if you aren’t ready! If you are feeling peer-pressured to have sex, stand up for your right to say no!
- Use condoms - If you choose to have sex, condoms can protect against STDs spread through anal, oral and/or vaginal sex. Flavored condoms can also be a fun way to stay safe during oral sex!
- Know when to get tested - most STDs don’t show signs of infection so if you are sexually active or about to get sexually active with a new partner, get tested!
