        The real issue is the absolutely pathetic state of sex ed in the US. A lot of these people probably grew up thinking that “safe sex” meant doing it when she isn’t ovulating and somehow never learned any better despite living through the AIDS epidemic of the 1980s.

          Man, what’s heart breaking is congenital syphilis. A disease that’s passed to an infant at birth. In 2012, it was almost gone from the US.

          In 2021 it has surged by 201% nationally and quadruple digit percentage in some States.

          And given the antibiotic resistance that’s quickly building up, we may never be able to get rid of it now without some new advancement.

          And the vast majority of the surge has been due to people either not being able to have a prenatal screening or not wanting it.

          It is one of the most depressing defeats. Especially considering the damage the disease does to the child brain and heart. It’s just an unspeakable L humanity has had to take on this.

      OP’s not wrong, though. Inmates of boomer gulags are old, not dead. They’re gonna fuck unless you keep 'em in solitary confinement 24/7.

    Just curious here, but why did you guys see the title “Senior Citizen Sex” and still decide to click the link?

    On second though, I don’t want to know.
