I was watching a court show on TV where this 70 plus y.o. woman had contracted chlamydia. She was in a nursing home and it appeared that one of the staff was sexually assaulting her, her daughter was suing for medical bills or something, but I think another kind of lawsuit and criminal charges should had been filed.
Also, since the “invention” Viagra and related drugs, STDs have increased 10-fold among seniors, it’s awful and also ridiculous, but they should still practice safe sex at any age.
Blessings to everybody everywhere, I feel that women need to have adult conversations openly
I’ve been putting a face to this I’ll essential for a long time I feel that not talking openly is our down fall . I think we need to share more information about PEP and PREP amongst our communities.Thank you for your message, please be well Beautiful Dione
