Buying Protection

So the above video is just made because I have a camera that I never use so I need to do something about that! Anyway, here’s my story;

I stopped by CVS to pick up a few things and this guy in front of me was buying a bunch of stuff. I noticed that he kept shifting things around. so when the cashier was ringing the stuff up and moved some chips I saw the condoms. When I saw them I just looked up and his face was all red and he was looking all nervous. Why? I don’t know. I mean what’s the big deal about buying condoms? It’s 2010! If you’re having unprotected sex you are a moron so I would proudly display it if that were me but of course it wasn’t me it was this lil fool in front of me.

This had me thinking. Was I embarassed to buy condoms when I was younger? Nope. Never have been nor will I ever be. If you’re not embarrassed enough to do the do then you shouldn’t be embarrassed to buy protection.

That.is.all

Will, he is afraid because we don’t talk about sex anymore to our youth or to each other. So much guilt and negativity wrapped around the ideals of sex…I’m surprised he didn’t just throw them down and walk out.

I noticed this the other day when I was in CVS. There was a lady and she was holding what looked like a one year old and she hurried up and put the condoms behind something else as she was laying it on the counter. I was thinking to myself if I just had a baby I’ wouldn’t be ashamed to hrow those condoms up there with the quickness, but that’s just me. Maybe it’s more of them thinking you’re getting a peek into their personal lives and it makes them uncomfortable….who knows.

Hey Kandia thanks for stopping through! Yeah I don’t understand. I mean you are grown why do you care if someone else saw? Foolishness.

Hey Nena! I think you hit it on the head! Maybe we do need to open the dialogue up a bit more so that people won’t feel ashamed to do what is right when it comes to sex and not be ashamed of buying or using condoms.
