Agreed with nikki- we all need to stop pretending this isn't out there and take precautions. I honestly don't know how to respond to the question though- how do we make everyone more aware. I feel like I grew up knowing this was out there, as did everyone my generation. It's affected the way I carry myself and conduct my relationships my whole adult life. We have been bombarded with the consequences that risky sexual behavior leads to for decades, but a lot people are just not willing to change, or refrain from this behavior.
