A story is told of a guy who contracted a sexually transmitted disease from his girlfriend. After getting treatment, he went to meet the lady in order to rebuke her for infecting him. Our guy came back with another STD.
This is not a new problem.
Many years ago, Odysseus, a war hero and sailor, is warned about the Sirens, beautiful creatures whose irresistibly sweet songs lure sailors to their death. Many who listened to them steered their ships toward the Sirens’ island, where they would perish.
Odysseus came up with a plan to overcome the danger as he crossed the waters. He filled his soldiers’ ears with wax so that they could not hear the Sirens’ song, while he had himself tied to the mast of the ship.
As they sailed past the Sirens, Odysseus heard the sweet music of the Sirens. The song was so enchanting that he desperately struggled to free himself and join them.
But he had instructed his soldiers beforehand that if he tried to release himself, they should tie him even more tightly and not let him loose until they were safely beyond the seductive fatal sounds of the Sirens.
Our hero should have carried a condom.
