Sex Ed

I'm sure i could be more productive, besides reading here at work. I got an ad campaign to work on, preferably in advanced stages by the time I start up The Chicago Portfolio School in October.

Anyhoozle, today I'm looking forward to a free syphilis test! Apparently some dude I banged since I got to Chi-town got a case of the blind n crazies, but was kind enough to get the Howard Brown Health Center (the free gay clinic here) to call me and let me know I may one day turn in Jack The Ripper.

Even though technically I'm allergic to penicillin, I'm hardly worried. Still, it bears repeating that all of us should be vigilant about sexual health, especially the sluts among us (of which I am totes a member). Sometimes I'm surprised that what I assume to be basic sexual health knowledge, other people may not totally grasp. When the kind counselor called me about my possible syphilis, I was like "well, its not the big A, a shot of penicillin will take care of it" and he was surprised, all "Oh, so you know what this STD is!" and I'm all "... of course I do."

Perhaps its just me being a nerd, knowing all this STD stuff. Or maybe it was because I came of gay age when STD education was big for the homos, at least in books/internet/gay society. It all is common sense to me. And to think some assholes still think pushing abstinence education in lieu of sex education, even though more and more studies are proving that it does nothing to prevent sex. Bristol Palin gets knocked up at 17, her and her hockey boyfriend are paraded as paragons of Republican pro-life insanity, and kids in my hometown are still popping out kids at 14.

Maybe a solution is erasing shame about sex. I'm dillon, I'm a slutty faggot, I may have syphilis, and I want pro-government Democrats back in office.
