Unfortunately, condoms are no true guarantee against HIV. Anything that is made to stretch, ie: rubber, latex, etc. is very porous. That’s what makes it stretchy. Though the holes in those products are usually extremely small - microscopic - they aren’t all. There are some holes you can see with the naked eye. And along with that is the simple fact that those naturally occurring, microscopic holes are often ten times larger than the HIV virus. In my profession, we’re advised to use 2 or 3 pairs of gloves on top of each other, when dealing Hepatitis or HIV patients. Those gloves are often made of the same material as condoms. So, you’d really need to wear 2 or 3 condoms at a time to protect yourself against Hep B, Hep C, or HIV. What would that do for sensation? Is it really worth it? The most sure-fire way to avoid STD’s (or STI’s as they’re now called) is to remain celibate or be in a truly honest, committed, monogamous relationship such as marriage. Otherwise, you’re playing Russian roulette with your health and your life.
That's just nonsense. When used properly, condoms are extremely effective against the spread of HIV/AIDS. The problem is when condoms are used incorrectly, and breakage or other problems result. In real world studies, which take into account the fact that many people doing use condoms correctly, condoms reduce transmittal rates by upwards of 85%.

LOL. I assure you that condoms are 100% HIV-proof if used properly.
