He probably doesn’t know his history
“I’m fine.” “I’m clean.” “I’ve been careful.” “I would never put you at risk.” These are some things a man might say when he wants to get out of using a condom and instead use the pull-out method. That’s a beautiful sentiment that means absolutely nothing without the paperwork (i.e. clean and recent test results) to back it up. And it turns out that most men do not have that paperwork. Research finds that the majority of sexually active men have never been tested. Never. Non-Hispanic white men are some of the worst offenders in this group. So next time your partner says, “I’m clean,” know that, statistically speaking, he may have no idea whether or not that’s true.
