You may find this a bit strange, but ...
I'm a guy, and quite a few of the women I have had sex with, begged me NOT to use a condom, because they wanted it raw. Most of the time, I insisted on using condoms. There was one person I chose to trust because she showed me that she was on the pill.
In hindsight, that was stupid of me. Now, I would only do that with someone I'm committed to and who I trust with both the pill and with not having STDs.
I'm equally afraid of both pregnancy and STDs.

I turn to the crowd as they're watching
They're sitting all together in the dark in the warm
I wanted to be in there among them
I see how their eyes are gathered into one
And then she turns to me with her hand extended
Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
- Suzanne Vega (1987)
