Many studies have suggested that merely warning people about the dangers of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and urging the use of condoms as protection will not result in widespread use of condoms. Regular condom use appears to be grounded in knowledge of its effectiveness, perception of STD risk, and belief in a partner's acceptance. But these are not the only barriers to condom use. Negotiating condom use often comes at a sensitive stage in intimate relationships, when individuals prefer to avoid such discussions and simply to trust the powerful and compelling feelings of mutual attraction. This review will consider (1) the effectiveness of condoms in preventing STD transmission, (2) barriers to the use of condoms, and (3) recommended strategies to promote acceptance and use of condoms by heterosexual women.
许多研究表明，仅仅警告人们性传播疾病（STD）的危险并敦促使用安全套作为防护措施，并不会导致安全套的广泛使用。经常使用安全套似乎基于对其有效性的了解、对性传播疾病风险的认知以及相信伴侣会接受。但这些并不是使用安全套的唯一障碍。在亲密关系的敏感阶段协商使用安全套，而此时个人更倾向于避免此类讨论，只想信赖相互吸引这种强烈且令人信服的感觉。本综述将探讨：（1）安全套在预防性传播疾病传播方面的有效性；（2）使用安全套的障碍；（3）推荐的促进异性恋女性接受和使用安全套的策略。
