Last night I had a hookup for the first time. I told the guy I wanted him to use a condom, which offended him because he was like, “Why do I need to use one if you already have an IUD? Do you think I’m some STD-ridden guy?” I told him I just don’t know him that well. Either way it was fine in the end, he put it on and it was a fine night. Now I’m thinking, was I being a pushover?


No, absolutely not. Any guy who pushes back against condom use is not worth sleeping with. I’ve been with my BF for years at this point and we still (usually) use condoms because it gives me more peace of mind.
