If you thought the most important thing in your wallet for having sex was either a condom or your credit card, you might be wrong.
Eli Dancy founded STFree Certifications in 2004, and his "Safe Sex Licence" is catching on. About 15,000 people, and 6,000 New Yorkers have a personal ID card that allows their sexual partners to verify the date of their last STD test and the results. It only takes a phone call to the 800 number on the back of the Safe Sex Licence.
The photo ID is not a license to have risk-free unprotected sex, Mr. Dancy said, but it should be thought of in relative terms. Someone who has been tested recently, and is concerned about their status and their partners', is likely to make a safer choice.
STFree Certifications is a small non-profit and does much of its registration out of the back of their well-decorated van. They recently partnered with The Black AIDS Institute in their effort to test the HIV/AIDS status of a million African-Americans over the next year.
While it may always be uncomfortable to ask a potential partner about their sexual history, the Safe Sex License can make it easier to bring up, and harder to lie.
