[nabs-l] Long-Distance Dating

[wmodnl wmodnl]

I think this discussion calls for a new list.  A list for discussing these topics in the open.  Maybe, we can offer a FAQ page, with a search area for people to locate educational material, and local centers in there area.  Finally, if I remember, there are confidential hotlines that individuals can call through local hospitals to ask these questions.  Dave, what do you think about the idea for adding a list for this topic?  We see a need for it, and a demand for correct information.

And -- for what it's worth, I remember some of my sighted fraternity brothers agonizing over how to procure condoms.  And ... then there was the famous scene in  the movie The Summer of '42.

>> Hello,
>> Bring a condom... I still haven't heard about condoms being offered in High schools, but Colleges do have free Condoms and lube in their health centers.
>> I've never gone in to ask for a condom at one of those places, that is something I would like to hear experiences from other people on.
>> Is there a tactful way of asking for a free condom at a health center? I can go and ask point blank, but that feels to me like I would be seen as the horny blind guy. Especially if I came in there every few months...
>> Perhaps I can go in for a flue shot and when I finish if there is few people there, ask for a tour of the condoms?
>> Or do people try and get their friends to go with them and show them around? I could also ask my mobility instructor to show me.
>> Do people know what would be most socially acceptable?
>> It is my opinion that a guy should not even consider having sex unless he has a condom. It's very much the man's responsibility to make sure he has protection for his gender.
>> 
>> Does anyone also know of a good website to buy condoms and other things off of? I know my parents stopped using condoms before the internet really became big because my brother is 16. I doubt they are any help there...
