    You know we can test for those things now, right? As long as everyone remains faithful to their partners its not an issue.

    If 300 people all get tested and are clean, they can all get together every night for a massive orgy and there is zero STI risk. As long as none of them sleep with anyone outside of the group that hasn’t been tested.

      you can’t just test for these things without symptoms.
      most of these diseases have dormant phases and active phases… like a cold sore….

        I don’t know how healthcare works where you live, but here you can. Its free, no questions asked. Get the results a couple of weeks later.

        Er? You absolutely can do an STI screen without symptoms. Some of the most common STIs don’t even usually have symptoms.
