So I've just been wondering this for a while, and my school never gave us sex ed or a health class or anything (some parents complained about it being too early the year before I was supposed to go into the grade they taught it and they just stopped altogether) and I've never been to a gynecologist before. So anyways, how does someone get an std? Does it come from someone who's already had unprotected sex with a previous partner? My boyfriend and I lost our virginity to each other and are the first to each other to ever do anything sexual, are we still able to get stds from each other?
