  • I just want to clarify, that it’s also commonly used for sex where protection was comprimised. (Broken condoms, forgotten birth control doses. Etc)

    Saying it’s only for unprotected sex can give a stigma that it’s only used by irresponsible people. It can be, but it’s also a backup plan when your previous planning didn’t work, you know……a plan B.
















  • The Chicago anti rave law that allowed cops to treat raves like crack houses and drug dens. That meant anyone at a “rave” could have all your equipment seized and you’d be arrested. They made the definition of a rags as a gathering of 10 people and a DJ. Now a DJ isn’t going risk his decks or records being taken by the cops. The property owner could have the venue seized too.

    So everything moved into the downtown Chicago clubs and because 21+ and way way more expensive.

    Eventually the modern rave became EDM fests because everyone got a piece of the $$.
