My nigga Chuck, he liked to fuck...
We're living in some scary times. Back in the day I used to think it was cool to run through as many girls as possible, but in retrospect it wasn't the wisest choice. Some of the girls that I messed with I knew absolutely nothing about, so I was not only risking being the father of some club hoe, but potentially getting catching some ill shit from them. Fortunately I've managed to make it to 26 with neither an STD or a child so I consider myself a lucky one. You really need to know what you're dealing with mentally and physically before you lay down with a woman. It ain't fun and games out here.
With all that being said, I read an article today that said 1 out of 4 girls between 14-19 have an STD. While that's bad enough, it further went on to say that 1 out of every 2 black girls of the same age group do as well. 25% is bad enough, but 50%?! Who knows how accurate that those numbers are, it's definitely something to think about.
Our society doesn't seem to talk about safe sex and abstinence as much as it did when I was young. With our society becoming more and more promiscuous I only see these numbers getting worse. We really need to change the mindset of the youth but it's a difficult task with so many broken homes and parenting coming from BET. Values just don't exist anymore and it's really fucked up.
I don't really know where I was going with this, but I figured I'd drop some thoughts...
