Sharing dildos

[Tania]

I am concerned if I would get STDs by using dildos of my friend. I had masturbated with the dildo of my friend recently and now I think it was not a good idea. I am worried and would like to know more on this. Please help me.

Hi Tania,

It's true some STIs can pass this way so we'd recommend using a condom if you're going to share toys. Just think if someone prepares food for you then you are more likely catch things they have. That's why we wash plates and professionals wear gloves when they prepare food.

It sounds like this only happened once but it's a lesson worth learning so good job for thinking about it and asking the question here.
