Wow, I thought you'd be mad at me.
Anyway, I'm glad that you do know the stuff now... Whether you chose to do it or not is you choice, but you should definately be aware of it. I think teenagers are hopefully more aware of these things now that they're being taught in school, but a lot of people are missing this things. I mean, if nobody ever tells you... I've got enough gay friends that I'm up on the safe sex. Haha... not that I'm having any sex of my own to be safe or otherwise, but y'know. Word does travel through these ears.
