I love sex, 1980s

The first-person here presents little to no information on preventing AIDS outside of being a monogamous, straight, non-drug user. People in this category could be safely encouraged to enjoy sex without fear.

    I Love Sex.

    I have it all the time. Oh, I know all about AIDS. That doesn’t stop me. I still have sex, and I’m not afraid of AIDS. I’m not afraid because I’ve never shot drugs, and I have sex with only one person. The person who’s been faithful to me.

    The person I love.

    My wife.
