Teen girl6: Love alone ain’t gonna protect you, I carry condoms. When I need them, I got them.
 
Teen girl7: You can get them almost any where.

Teen girl8: Latex condoms can protect you from HIV, AIDS, STDS, and pregnancy, if you use them every time you have sex.

Teen girl6: I got friends who got babies already. Not for me, that means I’m gonna protect myself.

Teen girl9: No condoms, no sex. That’s the way me and my friends think.

Teen girl10: I know all about condoms, but I’m not having sex.

Teen girl6: that’s cool too.

Teen girl1: But if you’re choosing to have sex, take control. It’s alright to carry and use condoms. Talk about them with your partner and use them, and that’s gotta be every time. You have choices, and being smart is one of them. You got dreams. Get it straight. Call us for info. Then you decide. Call teens stopping AIDS at 1-800-968-teen. It’s confidential.
