Don’t feel embarrassed about talking about condoms…feel PROUD! Condoms show you care about both yourself and your partner enough to protect each other. It’s not about trust, it’s about respect.

Don’t wait until the “heat of the moment” to bring condoms up. Talk about it before you’re in a situation when you might need one.

Be direct about your feelings. Remember there is no reason to be embarrassed!
Be firm: no condom, no sex.

Don’t be afraid about rejection. If someone doesn’t care enough about you to respect your wishes and use a condom, then they aren’t worth your time.

Be positive! When you use a condom you have less to worry about.
