But Teny Harlin is a Trinity junior. While wearing a condom decrease's the chances of infec­ tion, this precaution by no means precludes the possibil­ ity of contracting AIDS. Aside from the moral irresponsi­ bilities attached to the heavy advocation of condom use, which assumes (mostly) premarital or extra-marital sex, two very negative consequences result from "rubber push­ ing." One effect is the creation ofthe false security that using a rubber will prevent AIDS. Numerous condom users are unaware of leakage, tearing or the proper method of disposal. These uniformed may be a minority, but the actual number may be a lot higher than one thinks. The number of individuals not acknowledging the seriousness of these factors may be even higher. Yet a public aware that condoms are only 95 percent effective against preg­ nancy would probably question their relative effective­ ness against AIDS. Arguably, massive promotion of condoms increases sexual activity. The reason involves perceptions. Gener­ ally, two factors prevent individuals from engaging in certain desirable activities. One is a perceived risk that would outweigh the benefits.
