Question about dildos
Posted by R. on April 29, 2008 at 07:00:32:
Hi. I love this show, and have been watching for a while.
I have a small concern. I was wondering if a dildo can carry bacterias that could cause STDs?
Can someone help me please? Thank you~

You bet it can, and that's why you never share toys. It's also a good idea to use condoms on them, even if you are just using it yourself. Many materials - such as Cyberskin and jelly - are porous and can hold on to bacteria only too well. You can scrub them clean with soap and water, but it's still slightly possible that they could retain bacteria. That's not much of a problem on your own, but if you are prone to yeast infections or alternating from rectum to vagina, you can see the potential for trouble.Randy
