Transcript: Glasgow talks about sex
It’s kind of one of those things that you would think it might be cringewothy or what not, but it won’t be because it’s something that is one of the things that has to be done.
Not right at the start of the relationship but just when you felt you were ready.
If you’re happy together then you should be able to talk about anything together.
It was a kinda mutual thing, we were watching a program one day and it was about that kind of thing, so we decided to have the conversation.
After we spoke about it, we felt more comfortable about it.
Now it just comes naturally.
It’s definitely better to clear things up before anything ever happens
I felt so much better; it is something I kinda think always played at the back of my mind.
I just came out and told her about what I was going to do about contraception and the kind of things that I was going to, what I was going to use.
Of course because if you didn’t then basically your playing Russian roulette.
It wasn’t so much approached to start with we just used contraception but then I think as the relationship when on, then we had to speak about it.
Making each other aware of your comfort zones, it’s so beneficial when you actually talking about the situation.
It think it’s easy, I think if you love someone and you want to be with them then it shouldn’t be difficult to have a conversation about sex.
It is important, not just to you, but your friends are all in the same boat.
Get it a bit more out in the open and that with your mates.
If you are going out on a night out or what ever you are always like, lads just make sure you have a condom in your wallet.
Wrap it up.
