I want to ask you something that i think is very important and must be kept in mind while being sexually active and enjoying our lives; what are your thoughts on getting tested, for both yourself and the person(s) with whom you wanna have sex? Pls respond without any hesitation; i am quite non-judgemental and i hope others too will respect each others' choices. Eg. If someone doesn't prefer to get tested, that's fine too! *no judgement* Also, pls elaborate on the reason for getting tested or not.
