2016, Addictive BehaviorsCitation Excerpt :The finding that 66% of females intended to use a condom during sex that evening, yet only 11% actually had a condom in their possession is particularly problematic, given the fact that women have both higher risk of contracting STIs and experiencing subsequent reproductive complications (Satterwhite et al., 2013). Health promotion strategies empowering young women to carry condoms instead of relying on their partners to do so are warranted; however, educators and programmers should understand this advice may be inconsistent with the traditional heterosexual sexual script for women (Hillier, Harrison, & Warr, 1998). For example, Hynie, Schuller, and Couperthwaite (2003) found that women carrying condoms were viewed by peers as being more sexually willing and having greater intentions to engage in sex than women who did not possess condoms.
