Are there really that many people who have unprotected sex or try to pressure you into it?

I’m Kazu, a male member. Some women ask whether you’ll use protection when discussing the allowance or an adult relationship (intimate). If a guy gets angry and starts saying things like, “Are you experienced?” or whatever, he’s a person to avoid. You can simply turn him down.

I’ll answer as Maezawa from the president’s office. I’m not sure how many men want to have sex without a condom, but I imagine there are quite a few. That said, intimacy is obviously something both people agree to, so whether or not to use a condom also requires mutual consent. If one person forces it despite the other refusing, that’s a problem, and I think it would be reasonable to take legal action. With that in mind, it may be best to discuss condom use as soon as you enter the room.

I’m Tetsu, a male member. I imagine quite a few people want to go without a condom because it feels better that way. When I read discussions about going without one here, I often see comments about men passing on STIs, but there are plenty of cases where it goes the other way too. Using a condom doesn’t guarantee complete safety, but it greatly reduces the risks of STIs and pregnancy. Going without one may feel better, but you should think carefully about the considerable risks involved. We’re adults, so let’s use our judgment and think things through carefully before acting on nothing but desire. What does trust really mean? Some people believe it can only be built by meeting repeatedly and spending a lot of time together, while others meet someone once, chat for a little while, and simply convince themselves that trust has been established. It’s really that vague a word. If you’re with someone you’d be willing to take on all the risks for, then maybe going without a condom is your choice—but people like that are pretty hard to find.
