I, at 35, had to tell my 67-year-old aunt she had symptoms of chlamydia after talking to me about her online hookup. She had no idea what that was. That was fun. Particularly when she called me back with, "You were right, they gave me medicine to take care of it, but I still have a few pills left in case it comes back."Viagra's part of it. But also, seniors communities have a lot of newly single people who went through school a bit too early for the 1980s-era "wear a condom or you'll get AIDS and die" sex-ed that Gen X got, and a lot of them think of STIs as a young people's problem.
My family has definitely contributed to antibiotic resistant strains of various illnesses. I'm so fucking confident in that.
