I'm gonna assume you were joking about using a trash bag, since they are quite obviously not even airtight...

The fact is that the Condom is the most effective method of contraception yet known, and enjoys an almost 100% success rate. That at least is a fact. STDs that can be transmitted in other ways apart from sex are excluded from the statistics, for obvious reasons...

Ah, you mean just by touching, that would explain it:fuzblink: Because thers alot of crappy STDs that are spread by touching, and its like a condom isn't like tights or something;) I understnad:o

STD - Sexually Transmitted Disease. It's obviously not an STD if it's only touching...

*sigh* This is one case Morgan where you don't take something compeltely literal. Like I said, it doesn't have to be "official" sex. In fact I know of one case where a person was misled by that (besides the person mentioned in one of my above posts). It doesn't matter that it says "sexualy", that may still cover (and often does) include touching. But I'm sure you have nothing to worry about;)

Not all STD's are transmitted the same way Majic-Abe. Yes you can get herbies and other STD's through physical contact...but others...like HIV...need an exchange of bodily fluids in order to infect (blood, semen, mucus, etc). Those you can't get by just 'touching' and condoms due protect very well against those. (I believe the success rate for condoms is 95%).

BTW...aren't we a bit off topic here by talking about STDs?
