It is possible to encourage people to practice unsafe sex without protection by presenting the idea of enjoying sex and not having to worry about any consequences, such as pregnancy or STDs. Because these potential risks are never explicitly discussed, individuals may be more likely to participate in such activities without considering the potential health risks associated with it. Furthermore, encouraging people to engage in sexual activity through false promises like “it won't happen to me” could also increase their willingness and desirability for indulging in unprotected sex.

Many individuals believe that unsafe sex without protection is "worth the risk" and do not see the harm in it, as it may seem at first. For instance, some people view having unprotected sex as a way to gain more freedom or autonomy over their bodies or because they see it as a way to show their love and trust in a partner. Other people might take risks due to societal pressures regarding sexual behavior or norms, believing that refraining from sexual activities outside of marriage is immoral or sinful. Despite these beliefs and justifications, promoting messages about the potential harms associated with unsafe sex without protection (such as STDs, unintended pregnancies, infertility and cancer) can help reduce its frequency among individuals. Education surrounding safe-sex practices should be accessible for those engaging in activities where protection may not be used in order to avoid health risks associated with unsafe practices.
