if i get an STD should i be proud
should i be "pretty cool with it"
It more or less pertains to the idea that women with STDs are viewed as 'disgusting' and possibly promiscuous when in reality there are men and women who contract them from their parents or from simple stuff.
Like, when you think STDs, the first thing that comes to most people's mind is a disgusting prostitute who is aged by years of career love. You may also think of a dirty old man or something, but it's generally viewed that STDs 'come' from women.
I hate to compare today's age to the past, but there used to be a lot of anti-STD propaganda that circulated around ww2 era that pictured beautiful women as being 'disease traps' or 'untrustworthy'
