Condom effectiveness is very close to 100% provided that the condoms are USED CORRECTLY. The actual real life figure for effectiveness is more like 60%-70%, and abstinence only [aka ignorance only] sex ed classes like to point to this figure, and tell young adults "So you see, condoms don't work." This is highly misleading. The problem isn't the condoms, but that people aren't sure how to use them right. And they're not going to learn from people who have the attitude of "Don't do it, and that's all you need to know" either.
Here is some information on condoms, birth control, infection, safer sex, abstinence and other alternatives to intercourse, how to talk to your partner about sexual issues ... even a video on how to CORRECTLY apply a condom.

it's only effective against diseases spread through fluids. It is no match for a scorching case of herpes. Condoms are actually a waste of time... Stick to abstinence.
