 Safe sex - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Safer sex practices became prominent in the late 1980s as a result of the AIDS epidemic.
Recently, and mostly within the United States, the use of the term safer sex rather than safe sex has gained greater use by health workers, with the realization the grounds that risk of transmission of sexually-transmitted infections in various sexual activities is a continuum rather than a simple dichotomy between risky and safe.
By way of contrast, proponents of the safer sex movement contend that it is often difficult to compel adolescents to refrain from sexual activity, and impossible to compel adults to remain sexually monogamous.

First, the question "are we safer now than we were x years ago?" is the wrong question to ask.
The correct form is "Are we safer now than we would have been given some other set of decisions in the intervening years?" Fail to specify that set and you haven't asked a reasonable question.
And, whatever the status of "are we safer," the related question "could we be safer here in the homeland" is certainly "yes." Kerry has pointed out many of the ways that Bush is not keeping the homeland secure.

They're marketed as safer cigarettes that can lessen the risks of smoking by releasing fewer cancer-causing substances.
But two new studies show these so-called safer cigarettes may not be safer at all -- and may even lead to increased addiction.
