I'll admit to running around the rose garden a few times in my twenties, and even then I was adamant that every man I slept with use protection. If they balked, I bailed. No pregnancies, no STDs.
Granted, I'm much more clear sighted now, and I agree with you - we gotta stop viewing sex as an "empowerment" tool. It's an act use for connection and conception and we've cheapened it completely. #MakeCourtshipGreatAgain
Yup, and the guys who whined about wearing condoms told me it was my job to be on birth control so they wouldn't need to wrap it up. Sadly, that's a common sentiment that I heard among my female peers, and many of them felt pressured to forego protection on his end.
I think The Pill has done more to screw up dating culture and sexual relations than abortion on demand, personally, but either way, we have our work cut out for us fixing it so we can get back into the proper mindset of sex not being a commodity.

At least you used protection. Most of these girls/guys just say "fuck it" and go raw.
I agree, Make Courtship Great Again. Sex is sacred, not a commodity.
