Lesbians and Safe Sex - My View
Over the past decade, since I’ve been out, I have almost constantly been involved in long term relationships. There was a short time when I was playing the field and slept with a few different women. I am guilty of never having safe sex with a woman, besides the one or two times I just wanted to know what the hell using a dental dam was like just for fun.
Unless you really don’t enjoy the taste of a woman, and love the taste of latex (or rubber or plastic or whatever the hell those things are made out of), lesbian safe sex would probably not be enjoyable for you. It surely wasn’t for me. In my opinion, one of the best parts of making love to a woman is tasting her. not to mention the gloves, if somebody came at me wearing rubber gloves, I’d feel like I was at the Dr.’s office getting a routine check-up. Total turn-off. But that’s just my opinion.
I understand that there are folks out there who practice safe sex with their partners so as not to pass anything along to them or get anything back and I respect that 100%. I just think that I’d rather find a partner who has the same status as me in order to avoid having to use dental dams and gloves. Does that mean a trip to the Dr. on the first date? Maybe so. Is it worth it in order to have a healthy and fulfilling sexual experience? Definitely.
It plain sucks that having sex with someone who can’t accidentally knock you up has to be protected at all.
I love being married and monogamous. There’s nothing to worry about here.
I’m with you. Dental dams and gloves? I don’t want to “suit up” to have sex with another woman, and to keep from doing that, I *would* get a health certificate. I have a safe partner, but if I wanted to branch out, I’d be concerned.
You’re lucky to be married, believe me.
