Is safe sex regularly practiced among lesbians? How common are stds in the lesbian community?I really hope I don't sound stupid here. For obvious reasons the gay male population strongly urges safe sex. Now I'm just wondering if lesbians try to promote safe sex among themselves as often as gay men do. Are stds common in the lesbian community?

safe sex isnt really promoted in the lesbian community in my experience, just the common, get check before you have sex or really get to know the person ha....and STDs are just as common in the lesbian community as heterosexual and Gay men....

The cdc has said there are no known transmissions of HIV between lesbians, however safe sex between women should consists of protecting against oral sex especially, (no one wants herpes of the mouth) and using condoms while using the toys

i doubt anyones using condoms on fingers.. :x so i don't really know
just get tested annually, and cautious as possible
