There are a multitude of ways to have safe sex, and in the vast majority of cases, people's safe sex regimen should be decided by those participating.

One well-meaning husband learned this the hard way when he thought condoms would make a great gift for his brother-in-law and his boyfriend.


The Reddit user, FormalBother, had just completed a vasectomy, but that didn't stop him from feeling a little too cocky.

Giphy

The man turned to Reddit asking "AITA?" [Am I The ***hole]:


People were pretty certain that he was.

"YTA. Other people's sex life is none of your business. Also assuming one of them will cheat is absolutey out of line." ˜ rachmaninoffkills
"YTA. Gay or not, if you have sex with the same person for 12 years, you're both tested and STD free, why would you use protection? There's no risk of getting an STD because they don't have any. How does that not get through to you?" ˜ bxbette
"If they're in a committed relationship and not cheating wtf are they protecting themselves from? They can't get pregnant and it's not like STDs show up outta nowhere? YTA He's 29 he can make his own life decisions" ˜ TheAngryTaquito
"YTA. Why are you so sure one will cheat? Are you cheating?" ˜ RunningTrisarahtop
"YTA. Unbelievably ignorant and offensive." ˜ thehomie
"YTA. They're grown men and their sex life doesn't affect you. By your logic, you should still be using condoms too." ˜ jesus-slaves
"YTA. You're a real piece of work, bud." ˜ Everborne

And though his intentions seemed pure, people thought his assumptions were more than a little homophobic.

"YTA. By giving them condoms you're implying that either a) you think one of them is going to cheat on the other or b) gay sex is inherently unclean. Just like you, they're in a commited, monogamous relationship, and get to make their own decisions on how to have safe and enjoyable sex." ˜ barrelina
"INFO: Why do you think they're more likely to cheat on each other than you and your wife are? I'm assuming that's why you thought they needed condoms?" ˜ Jiggles4Jello
"YTA for having double standards also your comments. Downvote this post, gtfo" ˜ IMKang

Yikes.

It's already scary to witness a younger person go through a life-changing medical diagnosis, but it's especially jarring to see a medical professional, who presumably knows best about how to care for themselves, go through the same.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

It seems that when the president you form your entire personality around craters to a catastrophic approval rating even for him, your ship starts to sink too.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
