As a 70s child...

23 Dec 2005

growing up in the 80s, I remember, at school, how we were told and warned about unsafe sex, the incurable contagion. It scared the hell out of me. My teens was a turbulent time of paranoia, hyperchondria, etc, and this news of sex equated with death took the biscuit with cheese. biggrin

Thanks to our schools and the media coverage, I didn't get to have sex until I was 19! I can laugh at the whole scenario now but am telling you I used two condoms instead of one.
I'm a bit more relaxed now. My currnet partner thought it would be good to put a stop to my paranoia by sending me to have a test. I came through it safe. I'm now a proud father of one.
One thing I still don't get is how she managed to evade having a test herself? :D

Them Girls have a way of twisting us blokes around there little fingers and getting us to do all sorts of things when they want to.
seems to me like she got you just where she wanted you at the very right moment and you said yes
or i could be totally wrong

She probably had no need to get a test, as you were more than likely her first partner. Also you were the more 'worried'.

bloody hell i know those GU clinics take a long time to be seen at but its really taking the piss if you went in childless and came out with a baby.
glad to hear your ok. i remember the whole ad campaign about safe, it appeared to be the decade to scare everyone whitless, as i also remember that was the era when we had all the safety ads on at night, you know ppl getting frazzled by power stations trying to get a ball back, or was that still the safe sex ad??? confused
