Happy National Condom Week!

As if national condom week weren’t exciting enough in its own right, some of our favorite folks ever—the ones over at Get Yourself Tested (GYT)—are running a sweepstakes this week giving away Beats by Dr. Dre headphones and a trip to NYC for two. To enter, all you have to do is tweet your answer to @MTVact’s question of the day. All the questions—and yes, that means just two more for the week, unless you’re really fast tonight—can be answered by checking out the GYT party interactive video. So basically it’s a win-win (or a win-win-win?) proposition—you get to watch an interactive video, learn about STIs, and possibly win prizes. (You know, besides the prize of being better informed about STIs…)

And while we’re on the subject of condoms and STI prevention, we just happen to have a new Fact or Fiction video for your myth-busting viewing pleasure.The question at hand: Can you get STIs from oral sex?

PS—Have you checked out Lucky Bloke yet? While you’ve got STI prevention on the brain, you may want to see whether their monthly condom subscription service—which also offers female condoms, dental dams, and lube for good measure—could be of interest…
