License to Fornicate is Catching

Fellas, how many times have you agonized over whether to use a condom, but then figured, "Hey, when am I going to be in Haiti again'" Well, a safe sex license called STFree is making it so two strangers don’t have to trust each other one bit when they want to try the rhythm method. Started by Bed Stuy’s Eli Dancy in 2004, over 15,000 potential mates have been issued the sex licenses. To get licensed, simply get your doctor to send your STD test results to STFree. They’ll then set you up with a photo I.D. which you can present when coitus is imminent, enabling your new partner to call a hotline and verify your good health! The only way this could get any more romantic is if the company merges with Match.com. [Thrillist]

maybe that's why "certain groups" have so many unwanted pregnancies?

Great.... now 17 yr olds can now buy beer, smokes, AND spread STD's w/ their fake ID's

Bouncing Soul

The level of stupidity never ceases to amaze me.

"Hold on baby, I need to call to see if you are STD-free so I can fuck you without a condom."

This is an invitation to spread diseases and create more unwanted children for morons who still believe pulling out is an effective method of birth control.

Call me when they have an "STDFree with natural tits and loves deep throat and anal" card.

MFer

I like it raw.

FutureGuy83 points out exactly why I didn't launch this idea 10 years ago when it originally crossed my mind.

#2...excellent...I needed that laugh...my guess you won't find one of these in Billyburg...no one would pass

Does the card have your IQ printed on it as well?

Talk about a faith-based initiative... this is almost as dumb as telling teens not to have sex at all.

Bad Idea Jeans? I think I still have a pair of those somewhere next to my "Big Red" viking game:

This card says the exact opposite of it's meant to say: "I like having lots of unprotected sex with random strangers." Nobody should sleep with anybody possessing one of these things.

bad idea jeans!

Its OK, John - I totally got the Bad Idea Jeans reference. Well played. Bonus points if you quote Shirt In A Can in a story.

Joking aside I think this could make people have more unprotected sex in high risk areas. Only poor people are going to buy this and it will no doubt make people think that it is ok to have unprotected sex.

Randoms can rock - but only if you're using you're brain. This ‘proof’ will only be as current as the date last doctor's visit. I guess it is nice to have 'proof' that at a relatively recent time, one was 'STDFree' but that shouldn't actually have a great impact on the sexual activities that a couple would typically engage in. At least not for me, I guess.

FutureMan83

so is the ID accurate up to the minute? because if you had unprotected sex the night before with an infected partner, i don't think that's going to be reflected on last month's STD test.

babyhitler

this is dumb. first of all. if you have sex with a hot chick you are going to get an STD. 25% of all young girls have an std and 90% of all hot chicks have one (I'm not kidding). You can have sex with the wallflower and play it safe however. And what happens if you don't have an std, get a card and proceed to get a std by using the card. Then you have an std but a stdfree card. doesn't compute.
