And you're only 70 % straight ?
Safe sex practices = no sex at all, remember, condoms are not 100% perfect.
Condoms are just an effective way to prevent pregnancy and to protect against STDs & STIs (Sexually Transmitted Infections like HIV). When having unprotected sex and the exchange of possibly infectious body fluids (especially blood or semen) takes place or may have taken place, both partners should seek care at a healthcare facility or/and talk to your doctor or practice nurse, that has expertise in handling preventative medications. Once you both tested and free of STIs it's almost safe to have unprotected sex. Have only one sexual partner, using condoms until you are sure you are both safe and each other’s only partner.
