Origami R.A.I Condom, For Receptive Anal Intercourse, Could Be World's First Specifically For Anal Sex (NSFW) UPDATED: STI Testing Recommendations for Sex Positive Community | Ecstatic Revolution. On my other post, STDs in Sex-Positive Community: Examining Stigma and Safer Sex Practices (which was cross-posted to Fetlife), I was asked about testing and my personal recommendations. In order to make this information easily accessible, I wanted to post this as a separate thread: Here is a list of of known STIs and how they can be tested: Current CDC Pap Smear and HPV Testing Guidelines: According to the latest CDC guidelines, women and persons of female-history are recommended to receive regular pap smears with test and high-risk HPV test every two years starting three years after becoming sexually active or 21 (whichever comes first) until they reach the age of 29; after age 30, pap smears and high-risk HPV tests are changed to every 3 years and should be continued until age 65.
According to the CDC, more than 50% of all people between 18-49 will have HPV during their lifetime. Syphilis is back on the rise – don’t leave this one out! What You Should Know So… what can we do? Anne Theriault: Stop Calling Rape Victims "Someone's Daughter" I don't have to tell you that Steubenville is all over the news. I don't have to tell you that the fact that Trent Mays and Ma'lik Richmond, the two teenagers convicted of raping a sixteen year old girl, were only sentenced to a combined three years in juvenile prison, is a fucking joke.
Each will serve a year for the rape itself; Mays will serve an additional year for "illegal use of a minor in nudity-oriented material. " I probably don't even have to tell you that the media treatment of this trial has been a perfect, if utterly sickening, example of rape culture, with its focus on how difficult and painful this event has been for the rapists who raped a sixteen year old girl then bragged about it on social media.
And I almost certainly don't have to tell you that the world is full of seemingly nice, normal people who want to go to bat for the convicted rapists. I don't have to tell you any of that because it's all par for the course. You know what, though? Women are not possessions. Buy Radius Condom Case, Caviar Online - FREE SHIPPING - Alice.com.

A Sex Ed 101 curriculum for conservatives. Recent national kerfuffles over abortion and contraception access bring up many important questions: Should employers retain control over your wages and benefits after they sign them over to you? Is contraception, a service used by 99 percent of American women, really so controversial? How much state regulation should there be over women’s most private decisions? But amidst all those questions is one overarching one: Do conservatives need a crash course in sex ed? Usually, when we think of the sex education debate, we think of junior high and high school kids putting condoms on bananas. But recent events indicate that this country needs remedial sex education for adults, specifically social conservatives who wish to hold forth on reproductive rights without seeming to know the basics regarding who has sex and how it works in 2012.
With that in mind, I designed a quick curriculum for these surprisingly necessary courses. Intercourse 101: It Takes Two to Tango. Video: Sandra Fluke's Testimony That Drove the Right Wing Crazy. Right wingers are spewing a huge amount of venom at law student Sandra Fluke, but it’s quite evident from Rush Limbaugh’s statements and the nonsense all over the right wing blogs that most of these people have no idea what Fluke actually said. Actually, that’s the generous analysis — it’s also likely that they do know what she said, but are deliberately lying about it. So in the interest of accuracy, here’s the C-SPAN video of Sandra Fluke’s testimony to the House Democratic Steering and Policy Committee, on February 23, 2012.
She actually begins speaking at about 15:20. Here’s just one obvious example showing how the ranting wingnuts never read or watched her statement: notice that Fluke says she was past president of Law Students for Reproductive Justice. It’s the first thing she says, in fact, when she introduces herself. But the right wing blogs are all screaming about this, and pretending it’s a deep dark secret they’ve discovered that totally discredits Ms Fluke. Ob-Gyns: Prepare to Treat Transgender Patients. Washington, DC -- To address the significant health care disparities of transgender individuals and to improve their access to care, ob-gyns should prepare to provide routine treatment and screening or refer them to other physicians, according to The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (The College). In a Committee Opinion published today, The College also states its opposition to gender identity discrimination and supports both public and private health insurance coverage for gender identity disorder treatment.
Although the total number of transgender people in the US is unknown, studies suggest they make up a small, though substantial, population. Transgender is a broad umbrella term that includes people whose gender identity and/or gender expression differs from their assigned sex at birth. Female-to-male, male-to-female, crossdressers, bi-gendered, and intersex are the major groups that fall under the term transgender. FTM Health-Transgender Health Resources.
