It is never easy to discuss a topic that appears difficult or one in which you are not sure how to begin. There are many topics that could fall under this category that people have a problem talking about.

Perhaps even more knowledge on the subject can be instrumental in prevention and could lead people to wanting to abstain from sexual activity. If not, this could definitely cut down promiscuity and the rise of STDs in society. For more on the subject view: Talking to your mate about STDs and
