GOT QUESTIONS? GET ANSWERS
********************************************
Q: Recently, a male friend of mine told me that he was still a virgin. He
then asked if I would teach him how to have sex. I don't think of him in a
sexual or romantic way, but I am thinking about helping him. Do you think
he could just be lying to me to get sex?
Dr. Drew: Whether he is lying or not, it certainly seems that he is
manipulating you to get sex. I don't think that teaching him how to have
sex is a very good idea for either of you. If you really want to help,
maybe you can talk to him and help him figure out why he has not been able
to have an intimate relationship up to this point.
Q: Is it possible to have sex in a jacuzzi while using a condom? Does the
heat of the water have an effect on the condom?
Dr. Drew: It certainly is possible to use a condom while in water. I know
of no evidence that suggests there is a higher likelihood of condom
failure if you were to do this. I would recommend that if you do try, use
a lubricated condom. Keep in mind that keeping a condom in your wallet can
cause it to break down due to body heat. Higher temperatures can weaken
the latex and increase likelihood of breakage. Therefore, I would think
that exposure to any high temperature, such as a hot tub, is not advised.
Q: My dad always seems to be looking for over-the-counter drugs-and I mean
ALWAYS. Is it possible that he may be addicted?
Dr. Drew: Yes. You can become addicted to some over-the-counter
medication. I have treated cases of pseudoephedrine, or Sudafed,
addiction. This decongestant can be used to manufacture speed, and if used
in sufficient quantity, can give speedlike effects. If your dad is
pursuing over-the-counter medications all the time, he may have become
addicted. He could also be addicted to something else and using these
medications as a substitute for his drug of choice. In any case, it is
certainly not a healthy behavior.
Q: When I smoke pot with my friends, we all share the same blunt (take a
hit and pass it around). Is it possible to get an STD from doing this?
Dr. Drew: You could transmit the herpes virus from one person's mouth to
another in this manner. Hepatitis A and B could also potentially be
transmitted this way. On the other hand, HIV and hepatitis C, which are
viruses present in the saliva, are not known to be transmitted from such
contact.
