Advocating promiscuity without even giving a nod at the serious consequences that come along with random hook-ups? Really? Actually insinuating that bringing a random sketchy guy back to your dorm room? And people wonder why the STI rate for college students is enormous. Plus, by explicitly saying “dorm room” you are encouraging inexperienced freshman to engage in destructive behavior, without even mentioning using protection or the reputation that becomes associated with people (especially girls) who sleep around. Some STIs are FOR LIFE. Some CAUSE CANCER. Encouraging getting screened for infections isn’t hard. “Who cares if someone, who you might never see again, thinks you’re a freak in the sheets? It’s this attitude that can lead to uninhibited and unforgettable sex.” At Cal Poly, you will see that person again. As soon as you sleep with a Cal Poly student on the weekend, guaranteed they will be in your line of vision Monday morning. One night stands are a part of college, but exercise caution—screen your candidate very closely, use protection, and do not drink so much that you don’t even remember that person or why you are in bed with them. Massive consumption of alcohol makes it much, much easier to engage in risky sexual behavior. Of course sex is fun, and whether you are outrageous in bed or make love in a long-term relationship. This won’t make the experience any less fun or any less pleasurable. Reminding people to keep in mind that when you drink too much, you most likely will not make the right decision is easy. And that these random bones could be a decision that ruins the rest of your life. The type of attitude in this article is what can lead to contracting sexually transmitted infections, unwanted pregnancy, self esteem issues, damaged social relationships, etc. To lapse on the responsibility of pointing out the negative effects that too often come from getting into these kinds of situations is a tragedy—the Mustang Daily needs to recognize their audience. Less experienced (and/or more impressionable) people reading this might get the wrong impression, make a poor decision and end up having to deal with life-changing consequences.
