I'm pre-millenial, and for me STDs are definitely a reason to hold slightly back, sexually. Also, not needing to be so careful with condoms is a pretty big plus for many of us that prefer it without for several reasons.

I also look forward to having the serious ones cured. Chlamydia and gonorrhoea are easy to test for and not too bad if caught early. In Sweden we can just log in to a government health care web site, click a button and get a free test kit sent home. Having herpes out of the way would be great. HIV/AIDS doesn't seem to be that big of a thing anymore, at least not in my awareness. Not sure what is then left to be afraid of, except unwanted pregnancies and hurt feelings.
