Safer Sex

By Joy Lynn Clark

I came up during the, “safe sex” era.  “Wear a condom” and, “stop the spread of HIV/AIDS”.  Unprotected sex freaks me out.  I am a single mother and I have been burnt before.  Ever since, I have vowed to never go through that kind of stress again.  The times that I did go raw dog and it didn’t work out, I worried all year long as I returned to the clinic for my pregnancy test and then HIV test.  Then six to eight months later I return for another HIV test just to be sure.  I got lucky this time.

Sex is safer now then it ever has been.  However, condoms cannot stop the spread of Herpes.  Damn, herpes.  I got checked out and I do get a little body acne from time to time but its nothing that my allergy med and eight glasses of water can’t fix.

I have been single too long.  Also, I keep meeting creeps online.  So I decided to get another profile on an adult dating site.  I have done this over the years and I have had pretty good luck.  

I haven’t gotten a marriage proposal but I have had a good relationshop and a couple of great lovers.   I have had different profiles over the years.  My favorite thing – knowing what I am going to get sexually and getting to see the goods beforehand.  So yeah, there’s the kitty in my private gallery, friends.  No herpes.

I was going use these for profile pics but they came out so nice that I put another one from this set on the cover of “Fauxs”.
