Cupcakes and condoms

In honor of National Women's and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, Co-founders of The Red Pump Project, Karyn and Luvvie, decided to present an event around several U.S. cities. The Red Pump Project is a nonprofit organization that raises awareness about the impact of HIV/AIDS on women and girls.To commemorate this day, I attended Cupcakes and Condoms,  hosted by the Atlanta ambassador, Skyy Banks. We spent our afternoon mingling, chatting about sexual health and, of course, eating cupcakes.Red_Pump_2012_472962ec photo (10)photo (11)Rockin' the red pump.photo (12)photo (9)This woman right here...candid, to say the least. From the moment I walked into the room and heard her voice, I knew that she was someone special. Sexual health educator, Ms. Nyrobi Moss, spoke about safe sexual practices, prevention and a sprinkling of relationships advice. Not to mention the "tongue in cheek" tutorial that cannot be televised, or blogged. Lol.

Favorite quotes:

On talking to your partner about their status:There's a very big difference between secrecy and privacy.Conversations go deeper than just condoms. Ask the questions you need to.On relationships:Relationships are hard work. Easy to get into and harder to maintain.Everyone you are dating either magnifies or reflects something you have going on.On sex:Men have sex with their egos. Condoms are supposed to fit.Sex costs on five different levels: emotionally, spiritually, financially, psychologically, and physically.If we could reach our own g-spots, partners would be obsolete.Bigger is not always better. Get someone who fits you.And because this is just a damn good quote:All d*ck ain't good d*ck and all p*ssy ain't good p*ssy.Well...that's that."Every 47 minutes, a woman will be diagnosed with HIV in the United States. That's why we #RocktheRedPump."miss lucy
