What STD? I'm STFree!

Posted by Verena von Pfetten

 

We've got good news for condom-haters everywhere...

Thrillist, that bastion of frat boy helpful hints and sexual service items has really come through this time. In today's newsletter, they shine a spotlight on Brooklyn-based STFree, a company dedicated to avoiding those awkward condom or no condom moments. 

And how, exactly, does this wittily-named service avoid what is seemingly inevitable? Well, by providing the member with a glossy, wallet-sized card that reads, "I'm so clean, the condom should wear me." (Who wouldn't fall for that line!) But, basically, subscribers sign up online, download a clinic verification form, get tested, and voila! When the awkward conversation arises, you hand the girl (or guy!) the card, whisper your secret code oh-so-seductively, and watch as they dial the 1-800-number, hear the dates and results of your last tests, and then drop trou right then and there.

Unprotected sex has never been easier. Thanks, Thrillist! We owe you one.

ED NOTE: Scanner by no means endorses unprotected sex. We're just here to be helpful.

Did you actually look at the STFree website? They're not about promoting unprotected sex -- they're about encouraging people to get tested, and to discuss getting tested (and their results) with their partners.

But hey, why actually read something when you can have Thrillist mangle it for you?
