If we just make condoms accessible, we can solve the problem of STD's

And other BS people believe:

Factors associated with condom use among young adult ecstasy users.
(...)
Condom use was inconsistent; only 35.2% of all sex acts were protected.

Colour me shocked.

And this is the intervention model they propose for Africa? Just give them more condoms?

Oh, I know, they're not all ecstasy users in Africa.

But between the failure rate, risk compensation and the number of people who won't use them, it will only make the situation worse.
