Document Summary
Went to trent and was able to take an interest in sexuality which was uncommon in the 1980"s. What might safer sex look lie condoms etc. Me: safer sex is about being protected and knowing all of the risk factors involved with the sexual act you are involved in. What most people said: condoms, protection from body fluids. Safer sex is an approach to prevention of sti"s and hiv prevention that was developed in the early days of the aids crisis in the 1980"s. Government wasn"t paying attention to the hiv/aids crisis. Trying to make sure that the movements and the progress that was made earlier was not all lost. Making sure that people still have sex while trying to make sure that we can make a way for it to be safe. Not just about protecting yourself or the person you are having sex with but to protect the community and everyone around you.
