lol… 4 is not a screen for **all STI’**s… and your dismissal of any other risk is insane.
if herpes was that simple to stop, then nobody would have herpes… and that’s just one of the many that aren’t tested for.
once you have symptoms, it’s usually too late.

for most people it’s usually fine. i’m NOT saying it’s bad to be polyamorous, all i was saying is the risks are risky… it’s not 💯, and the bigger your polycule, the higher the risk someone is lying anyways, cheating, and bring sti’s into the group….
very real risks, worth considering….
it’s not making fucking not worth doing… but worth making educated decisions about
