Ok, so the antonym for respect is disrespect. By making buying new toys or even a chap's very own willy for each sexual partner about respect you are inferring that other folks who don't do that are disrespectful. That's what makes it judgemental.

Hope that clarifies

I think this is semantics to a point...

How does someone define what is respect? *humming Aretha now

To say that for me it's a matter of respect is my personal definition. I don't throw it on anyone else unless we are swapping fluids - then it becomes personal.

If others do not define it as imperative/a matter of respect, then it's not. If others define respect differently and set their own parameters for what encompasses safe sex, then that's okay to me, at least.

I started this thread because I was curious what others do, how they feel, and perceive this concept. It has been interesting to see what people have posted.

*P.S. No, it's not just you ....
