Pandemics from mutated viruses are scary nightmares doomsday prophets warn about. Almost every kind of human endeavor is at risk. The food we eat and the air we breathe are the primary risk areas. Down the line, AIDS and sexually transmitted diseases make sexual activity a battlefront too.
Sex can’t be separated from the social whirl. It’s at the heart of it. Human relations follow social standards like courtship, marriage, and raising a family. The deviation from such social norms makes it a danger to the community’s health. The undercover and secret trysts make it harder to control and monitor.
Top politicians and prominent social figures have been caught with their pants down in many discreet hotel rooms. Some of them ruined their careers beyond repair. If such occurrences happen in the upper echelons, you can imagine how rampant they could be practiced in the middle and lower rungs of society.
Show business and celebrity circles are hotbeds of loose sex and easy drugs. They become conclaves of promiscuity. A lot of movie stars die young because of overdoses. All told the suicide attempts could have been triggered by the specter of incurable sexually transmitted disease.
The bar of sex seems to go lower each year. Now you hear of young teens just out of puberty getting pregnant. The peer pressure and the new wave morality in schools seem to condone young sexual intimacy. Society cannot reverse itself anymore to allow more quality time between parents and kids. Kids cling to each other for support and find premature sexual relations.
The first course in healthy sex is solid and wide ranging information. People of all orientations and age groupings tend to subscribe to helpful instructions and advice. Normally such propaganda can be planted in the internet. Good sexual education can be the redeeming social impact of the net in our lives.
Safe sex is foremost in the minds of young and old alike. Such awareness comes from the exposure to online information. There are sites which advertise condoms of all types and features. The accessibility of such sites in the internet complete with write ups on how to properly use the devices is a great boon to achieving safety targets.
We cannot wax evangelical and moralize over the heads of young married couples to be faithful to each other. Religion helps but it is a personal thing. Our thrust is to provide a safety catch. Those who will go astray should be properly educated about using condoms when making it with prostitutes or mistresses. Safety precautions should be strictly followed.
Some Lotharios and sexual practitioners carry cards that pronounce them as safe and clean. The cards attest to their recent medical tests for AIDS and other sexual maladies. This should be encouraged and not be a cause for couples to get jealous. It is for their own good that men or women practice such screening measures.
Sex is more an animal drive than a human aspiration. Complexed with love it approaches the divine. Religion and spirituality play compelling roles in making sex a lofty human endeavor. However if they have to go their separate ways and love takes a backseat then sex should be properly armed with the condom.
