would you feel like it was the end of the world if you had to take antibiotics for an ear infection?
then why do you feel like it would be the end of the world if you got chlamydia?
getting an infection through sex is no worse than getting an infection of similar severity any other way. it doesn’t say anything bad about you. sex is nothing to be ashamed of, and neither is an STI.
stigma, shame and fear make both prevention and treatment harder. replace them with knowledge, compassion and confidence and make the choices that are right for you.
